Abstract

When Catholic Missionaries first went to Western Oceania in the 1840s, they encountered established Protestant mission stations and worshipping Christian communities. The first Vicar Apostolic of Western Oceania, instructed his missionaries to present their church as “the ancient Church, the mother Church, the foundation Church, the true and only Church, which exists everywhere on earth.” The diocesan archives in Auckland New Zealand preserve a single copy of a poster which communicated those ideas. This article identifies the source of that visual aid which was widely used in the first thirty years of the Catholic Mission to Western Oceania.

19世纪40年代，当天主教传教士首次前往大洋洲西部时，他们遇到了已建立的新教传教站和崇拜基督教的社区。这位西大洋洲的第一位副主教指示他的传教士将他们的教堂描述为“古老的教堂、母教堂、基础教堂、真实而唯一的教堂，它存在于地球上的每一个地方。”新西兰奥克兰的教区档案馆保存了一张传达这些想法的海报。本文确定了在天主教西大洋洲传教团的前三十年中广泛使用的视觉辅助工具的来源。
