Two Chinese Bishops, Joseph Yang Yongqiang and Vincent Zhan Silu, offer their greetings to other delegates at the ongoing Synod on Synodality, reflecting on the faith and communion of Chinese Catholics."The Church in China is the same as the Catholic Church in other countries of the world: we belong to the same faith, share the same baptism, and we are all faithful to the one, holy, catholic, and apostolic Church.
He is one of two bishops from mainland China participating in the ongoing second session of the 16th Ordinary General Assembly of the Synod, taking place in the Vatican.This marks the third time that two bishops from the People's Republic of China have taken part in the Synod, following previous occasions in 2018 and 2023 .
The bishop concluded by extending"a welcome to Catholic communities and religious groups from all countries who wish to visit the Church in China." However, noted Bishop Zhan Silu,"the discernment between cultural differences and the need to preserve the authenticity of the Christian faith became a source of confusion for missionaries in China. This confusion led to the famous Rites Controversy, which took place precisely in my diocese, in Mindong. From a historical perspective, one of the reasons for this setback was that the Church ignored the differences and complementarity of human cultures.
