It studies the growth of an indigenous community of Chinese sisters, who acquired a formal status in the local and universal Catholic Church, and the challenge of identifying Chinese Catholic women in studies dealing with the Chinese Church in the first half of the 20th century, as these women remained 'faceless' and 'nameless' in contrast to their Catholic male counterparts of the period. Emphasizing the intertwining histories of the Hong Kong Church, the churches in China, and the Roman Catholic Church, it demonstrates how the history of the Precious Blood Congregation throws light on the formation and development of indigenous groups of sisters in contemporary China. 410 0$aChristianity in Modern China,$x2730-7883 606 $aReligion and sociology 606 $aChina$xHistory 606 $aCatholic Church 606 $aSociology of Religion 606 $aHistory of China 606 $aCatholicism 615 0$aReligion and sociology. 615 0$aChina$xHistory. 615 0$aCatholic Church. 615 14$aSociology of Religion. 615 24$aHistory of China. 615 24$aCatholicism. 676 $a201.7081 700 $aChu$b Cindy Yik-yi$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0980359 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910150527703321 996 $aThe Chinese Sisters of the Precious Blood and the Evolution of the Catholic Church$92500244 997 $aUNINA
