Thaddeus Ma Daqin was just ordained an auxiliary bishop of Shanghai, with the approval of both the Chinese Patriotic Catholic Association and the real Church -- so everyone was happy, right?
Not Bishop Ma. When he made his ordination address, he said he was quitting the CPCA. And "The congregation broke out in loud applause."
Of course he's been put in “closed meditation”. But he's chosen the better portion and I hope he never regrets it for a moment.
