This book traces the origins of the Chinese Sisters of the Precious
Blood in Hong Kong and their history up to the early 1970s, and
contributes to the neglected area of Chinese Catholic women in the
history of the Chinese Catholic Church. 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 twentieth 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.
