Dutch Vincentians, Mission in China, Yongpingfu, InternmentRésumé
À partir du 19e siècle, les Vincentiens hollandais se sont engagés de manière significative dans le travail missionnaire en Chine, en particulier dans le vicariat apostolique de Yongpingfu (永平府). Inspirés par les mémoires et les lettres de missionnaires comme Evariste Huc, les prêtres vincentiens et les Filles de la Charité se sont lancés dans de périlleux voyages en Chine, à partir de 1847. Malgré les difficultés, notamment la piraterie et les tensions politiques, des personnalités comme Antoon Everard Smorenburg ont joué un rôle crucial dans la formation des séminaristes chinois et la reconstruction de l'Église à Pékin. La mission a connu des revers pendant la rébellion des Boxers, mais a persisté grâce au dévouement de missionnaires comme Frans Wijnhoven. Au fil du temps, les Vincentiens néerlandais, aux côtés de leurs collègues internationaux, ont mis en place d'importantes infrastructures religieuses et sociales. Le récit met en lumière leur résilience et leurs contributions à l'Église catholique en Chine dans l'adversité, avec en point d'orgue les efforts déployés pour favoriser la collaboration interconfessionnelle et l'engagement communautaire malgré les bouleversements politiques et les catastrophes naturelles.
