Noticias de las misiones de China, 18 de abril de 1690

The document, dated April 18, 1690, outlines updates regarding the Augustinian missions in China. It reports that in September 1689, five French clerics, including two bishops, entered China to support the missions in the provinces of Fukien and Canton. The new administrator, Bishop Don Carlos Maygrot, emphasized the enforcement of a required oath for mission work, leading to discord among missionaries and unrest within the Canton Christian community, which caused concern for the missionaries’ efforts. Despite these challenges, there were continued conversions and the spread of the gospel in emerging populations, as the disturbances had not affected many areas outside the metropolis of Canton, allowing missionary work to progress. The report highlights the missionaries' dedication and the significant results of their efforts.
