Faith Press – A Catholic Publishing House

In the same compound of the seminary in Shijiazhuang are the offices of Faith Press, the largest Catholic publisher in China. Besides publishing books they also have a fortnightly newspaper with more than 60,000 subscribers in China and abroad.

We had a long and interesting meeting with the Director, Fr. John B. Zhang, and his editorial staff. We co-publish with Faith Press the Chinese Daily Gospel and we gave them all the materials for the 2010 edition. Faith Press will take care of the final editing. We have decided to increase the number of copies to 21,000 for the simplified Chinese edition, which will be printed by our friends at Amity Press in thin Bible paper.

We shared with Faith Press other manuscripts ready for publication. This publishing house has published more than 400 titles of religious books. There are two more Catholic publishers in China located in Shanghai and in Beijing.
