Updates, news and events in our China Mission
September 2008

International University of Beijing – IUB

As we informed you last month, we were ready to begin the fall term on September 15. Our students from abroad were ready to go, with their suitcases packed… but the visa to China was not granted. We were told that the reason was the extremely tight security because of the Olympics. Now that the games are over and were a success, especially for China, we expect that the visa situation will be back to normal. So the IUB project is postponed for the beginning of 2009 as we continue to have the indefatigable help of Fr. Michael Saso for this project.

We invite you to take a closer look at our programs. Fr. Tuchu and Ian prepared a beautiful web page. Here it is: www.iubeijing.org
