The Sisters of Our Lady of China is a Diocesan Religious Institute of Consecrated Life, dedicated to apostolic mission work. The late Cardinal Tien, S.V.D., the first Asian born Cardinal in the history of the Catholic Church, founded the community in 1940, in Shantung Province, China.
After the Second World War, the Sisters left Mainland China & resettled in Taiwan in 1952, in the Chiai Diocese.
The Sisters of Our Lady of China are primarily interested in serving God's poor, sick, homeless and needy. The Community, as followers of Christ and His Blessed Mother, are active in the four corners of the world.
They are engaged in pastoral care, education, healthcare, care of the aged and in serving in areas wherever the Bishops may call for help.
