A Pastoral Coordination Group has been set up to support Hong Kong Catholic Migrants in the UK.
The Coordination Group, officially launched on 1 July 2024, places an emphasis on supporting and connecting Hong Kong Catholic migrant communities across the UK.
It will liaise with local faith groups, the Bishops’ Conference, and the Diocese of Hong Kong, as well as provide pastoral support to strengthen and deepen the faith of the laity. The arrangement is ad experimentum for one year.
Masses in Mandarin and Cantonese for the Hong Kong Catholic community can be found here:
