Anglicanism portal

Chung Hua Sheng Kung Hui (Chinese: 中華聖公會) was the Anglican-Episcopal Church in China. It was formally established as the Anglican-Episcopal Province of China in 1912. Soon after the communist revolution in China in 1949, it ceased to exist. Its dioceses in Hong Kong and Macao became an independent province (Hong Kong Sheng Kung Hui). Communicants who moved to Taiwan established the Taiwan Episcopal Church.
