At least 300 young people from Singapore are amongst those gathered in Madrid for World Youth Day celebrations. Benedict Tang arrived in Spain earlier this month, together with a group of twenty others from the Catholic institution Opus Dei which operates a center in Singapore. Tang explains this is his second WYD experience following celebrations in Sydney in 2008. Tang tells Emer McCarthy about his journey to Catholicism and what the vibrant Church in Asia can teach those seemingly weary of the faith. The interview can be found by following the link below.

Help UCA News to be independent
Dear reader,
Lent is the season during which catechumens make their final preparations to be welcomed into the Church.
Each year during Lent, UCA News presents the stories of people who will join the Church in proclaiming that Jesus Christ is their Lord. The stories of how women and men who will be baptized came to believe in Christ are inspirations for all of us as we prepare to celebrate the Church's chief feast.
Help us with your donations to bring such stories of faith that make a difference in the Church and society.
A small contribution of US$5 will support us continue our mission…
