We invite you to join us for the presentation "Present Challenges Facing Catholics in China" with guest speaker Rev. Gianni Criveller, PIME followed by an open discussion and a reception.
Religious belief and practice in China have been subjected to increasing official control in recent years. At the same time, in 2018, the Holy See under Pope Francis entered into a controversial agreement with Chinese authorities on the appointment of bishops.
Fr. Criveller, director of Asia News and one of the world's leading experts on the Catholic Church in China, will speak about the current circumstances and challenges facing Catholics in China today and discuss the effects of the Sino-Vatican agreement.
