VOICED : Church and China Communists vie over priest

The transcript discusses a French Catholic missionary who arrived in southern China in the 1800s. He faced accusations of inciting rebellion and other crimes, though historical records lack evidence of these claims. Despite being tortured and executed, he was canonized by the Vatican in 2000. The Chinese government portrays him negatively, but locals remember him as a good man. Father Way, a local priest, continues to hold mass and encourages his parishioners to maintain their faith amidst government propaganda.
