Lovely film. It’s good choice to mark opening of the Olympics.
Vincentians were present in China since they replaced Jesuits in their missions. They were significant missionaries in Beijing area as well, since two Apostolic Vicariates: Tai-Chi West and Tai-Chi East were headed by Vincentian bishops. Vincentians also staffed the Beijing cathedral. Most of the presence was broken when the Communist times came.
It’s good to have them back in the Middle Kingdom.
