The Spirit in the World—V: The International Catholic Auxiliaries

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  30 August 2024

Extract

Come over here, Secunda! Ma-the-lawyer's son wants to take a photo of everyone'—it was Prima at my elbow. Of everyone present? That seemed to me optimistic. The old Japanese-style house we occupy in Taipei, capital of Taiwan, is not large, even when we take down the sliding paper-covered doors and make a single room of it; but that afternoon, after the ceremony at the church nearby, the one room was certainly crowded. As we are a team of four Auxiliaries each working in a different profession we have a variety of friends and acquaintances. Nearly all the people in the room were Chinese—natives of Taiwan itself and of all parts of the mainland—and for the photo we were gathering round our own Chinese bishop, Mgr Cheng, consecrated a few months earlier.
