Abstract
Much has happened since the death of Mao Zedong (1893-1976), and much has been written about "reconciliation" between the People's Republic· of China and the Catholic Church. China remains Christianity's monumental challenge of the century one billion Chinese face one billion Christians; Both groups, Christians believe, are jointly committed to partnership in the service of the Chinese people. This commitment, and its corresponding mission, is acutely felt by the Catholic Church. The sheer number of people involved indicates the magnitude of the task ahead.
