In this issue, Theresa
Chu reports on a visit to Canada in May and June of the Catholic Friendship
Delegation, at the invitation of Amitié Chine. It includes a report on
development projects in Jiangsu, an update on a Canadian theological study
tour, and a trip report by Jo Ann Stark (Emmanuel College) who spent three
weeks in China. Wendy Fletcher of Huron College addresses the basic assumptions
about the treatment of Christianity in China that are challenged upon actually
visiting China and its churches. Then, it provides a text by Nancy Whitla
(Trinity College) on women in China, noting the real reformation of the
treatment of women in society lags behind the professions for reform made by
the government. It also features a report by Rod Downing (Vancouver School of
Theology), titled “Underground, Unconnected or Unfounded: Is There Another
Church in China?” It contains a summary by Inez Flemington of the year she
spent in China as an Amity Teacher. A statement made by KH Ting on Kairos Radio
is excerpted and the issue concludes with political developments in China and
the Amity Foundation 1988 Calendar.
