In the hundred years since its foundation, Fu Jen University has been marked by significant historical events, including its move from Beijing, China to Taipei, Taiwan, and introducing the rich Benedictine tradition of prayer and scholarship to China. In American Benedictines in Peking, educational and religious leaders from China, Taiwan, the United States, and the Vatican, highlight the distinguished history and mission of Fu Jen University to commemorate the centennial of the Benedictine foundation of the “Catholic University of Peking.”
