By Br. John Berchmans, M.I.C.M., Tert.

Theme: Honoring the Feast of Christ The King

Title: 50 Years Ago: China, Then and Now

The talk looks back fifty years to reflect on how the Church, the world, and everyday Catholic life have changed over time. The speaker contrasts the former stability and clarity of Catholic teaching with today’s widespread confusion and secular influences. He underscores the need to hold fast to tradition, sound doctrine, and moral discipline to avoid spiritual decline. Concrete examples from society, liturgy, and education illustrate how small compromises can lead to serious departures from the faith. The talk ends by urging personal holiness, solid catechesis, and renewed devotion as the way to restore authentic Catholic life.
