WelCom September 2022
The Pope says the Holy See’s Provisional Agreement with the People’s Republic of China ‘is going well’ and that he hopes it can be renewed in October. Thanks to the Provisional Agreement signed in 2018, the text of which is currently confidential, the situation of the Catholic Church in China was remedied by bringing bishops who had been installed without papal mandate back into full communion with Rome. The Agreement gives the Pope the final word on the appointment of new bishops, while providing a shared path to arrive at an agreement on episcopal nominations.
