Who We Are

The U.S. Catholic China Bureau exists to foster communication and friendship with the people of China through sharing the values of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

Founded in 1989, at the initiative of the Society of Jesus and Maryknoll, and with the affirmation of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops, the Bureau today represents a cross-section of Catholic organizations and individuals. It works to promote understanding among American Catholics about the Catholic Church and the situation of Catholic communities in China. It further seeks to engage the American Catholics in a new missionary partnership with Chinese Catholics

The USCCB has taken inspiration and guidance in its programs from communiqués and messages regarding Catholics in China from Pope John Paul II, who continually called for mutual forbearance and forgiveness and for efforts to promote reconciliation and unity within Chinese Catholic communities and for union of the Church in China with the Holy See.
