Hong Kong Anglican Church (Episcopal) Personelle Change Might Bring “Patriotic Education” to Their Schools

There may be a personelle change in Hong Kong Sheung Kung Hui (Hong Kong Anglican Church [Episcopal]) which manages several traditional schools in Hong Kong including DGS, Heep Yunn, and St. Paul’s co-educational college.

The Most Reverend Dr Paul Kwong, who is going to retire, suggested that an education department will be set up to coordinate the management of secondary schools, primary schools, and kindergartens so that “external communications can be standardised.” He stressed that the new department will not manage schools, but merely assist with the coordination.

However, there will be two tiers of management. The board will be formed by people in the church, including the Most Revd, Secretary General, and legal consultants. The current Most Revd Dr Paul Kwong, Secretary General The Revd Canon Peter Koon, and legal consultant Moses Cheng Mo-chi are all members of the National People's Congress in China. Some senior church members worried that this will affect the diversity of education and facilitate the “patriotic education”.

Sheng Kung Hui Holy Trinity Cathedral prays for introducing medical staff from mainland China, suddenly deletes content about praying for National Security Law

(1 Aug) Sheng Kung Hui Holy Trinity Cathedral, in its latest instalment of the weekly magazine “9th Day of the Pentecost”, originally had included prayer items to “pray that the national security law can bring a prosperous and stable future to Hong Kong, pray for the steady enforcements despite the difficulties, and pray for the successful implementation of such laws in the areas of politics, economics, legal aspects and people’s livelihood” in the “Social, country and the world” section of its weekly prayer topics. However, the aforementioned content was found deleted in the online version of the magazine.

In addition, although there has been heated debates around whether Hong Kong should introduce medical staff from mainland China to assist in dealing with the virus, in the latest weekly prayer topics of the Cathedral, the controversial topic “pray for the high feasibility for Hong Kong to introduce excellent mainland doctors to combat the virus along with local doctors” still remains .
