Apostolic Prefecture of Jiamusi

Khiamuszeen(sis)

The Apostolic Prefecture of Jiamusi (Kiamusze) is a Latin rite missionary jurisdiction in Heilongjiang, China, depending directly on the Dicastery for Evangelization. It originated as the Mission sui iuris of Ilan, erected 9 July 1928, was renamed Kiamusze in 1937, and was elevated to apostolic prefecture on 9 April 1940. The prefecture is vacant; its last ordinary resigned in 1983.

The bishop

The register holds no ordinary for this see. Where a chair is vacant the vacancy is the fact, and it is recorded rather than filled in. See the bishop.

How to reach it

Diocesan offices
Catholic Mission, Jiamusi, Heilongjiang, China

This see keeps no website of its own, so the address of its diocesan offices is published here: withholding it would protect nothing and leave a reader with nowhere to go. Where a see publishes its own site, the register sends you there instead.
