Chinese saints?

[alyssa]

I have a friend who is adopting a abby girl from China. I’d really like to give her a saint medal of a chinese saint, but I can’t seem to find any! With all the JPII did, I’m sure there is one out there…

If anyone knows of any saints from China, link me please!

Here’s a link to a website that tells the history of the Chinese Martyrs and offers pictures and a short bio on each of the saints:

I’m not sure where you’d be able to find medals though, but if anyone could tell you it’s probably Chinese Martyrs Parish who have posted the above info about the Chinese Martyrs.

Perhaps for girl of Chinese can be called female of Toma Apostle. In English: Tomasitsa. Toma Apostle is the first of the Heaveny Protectors of China. Fulfilling the command of the Lord to declare truth to all people, the Holy Apostle Toma went to even China.
