In recent years, the Xushan Catholic Church in Cixi City has held high the banner of patriotism and love of religion, adhered to the orientation of the localization of religion in China, actively adapted to social development, and actively promoted the construction of demonstration sites for the localization of religion in China relying on the “four strengthening and four promoting” work initiative, which has achieved good results.
First, strengthen ideological guidance and promote “five identifications”. Hushan Catholic Church actively participated in the “Four Histories” study and education, and the “Three Love” theme education practice activities organized by the superior departments or groups, and did a good job of publicity and implementation in the hall. At the same time, it publicized and posted the theoretical policies of the localization of religions in China, Chinese traditional culture and other contents in prominent positions in the church, appropriately integrated the socialist core values into religious activities, explained the doctrines and rules in line with the requirements of the times and the traditional Chinese culture, widely carried out calligraphy, painting, tea ceremony and Taijiquan and other traditional cultural projects among believers, and effectively improved the level of “five identifications”.
Second, strengthen the publicity of law popularization and promote the management according to law. We will set up special publicity rooms and bulletin boards for the rule of law, meticulously build a “cultural corridor for the rule of law”, and expand and enrich the front for law popularization. At the same time, we will continue to improve the management rules and regulations of the church, explore and practice new measures for the internal management of the church, and strive to ensure that everything has laws to follow and rules to follow.
Third, strengthen safety management and promote peace building. According to the Detailed Standards for the Establishment of “1+9” Indicator System in Cixi City for Safe Religious Venues, the investigation and rectification of potential safety hazards and safety training drills were carried out, the safety management of the venues was strengthened, micro fire rooms were added, and efforts were made to create an advanced unit for the provincial standardized management of fire safety in religious venues. Pay attention to the construction of rules and regulations related to safe construction. In accordance with the provisions of the Regulations on Religious Affairs, we have formulated management systems for personnel, public security, health, fire protection, etc., and hung them on the wall for implementation. Actively incorporate it into the construction system of Jiaochang Mountain Legal Culture Park on the west side of the church, and jointly carry out safe construction with its northern community to improve the level of safe construction.
Fourth, strengthen the role and promote social integration. Give full play to the positive role of the Catholic Church in promoting social harmony, participate in voluntary volunteer service activities such as free clinics, free haircuts and garbage sorting organized by streets and communities, and establish a good image of the Catholic Church in society. In the Mid Autumn Festival, the Double Ninth Festival and other traditional festivals, relevant celebration activities were carried out to actively integrate into the society with practical actions and vividly interpret the profound connotation of the sinicization of religion. This year, Hushan Catholic Church has donated more than 100000 yuan to the people affected by Henan floods and typhoon “fireworks”, demonstrating the family and country feelings of fraternity and compassion for the world.
