St. Lawrence Bai Xiaoman
February 25
Lawrence Bai Xiaoman was
a Roman Catholic saint from China. He was born in Guizhou to a poor family and
became an orphan at a young age. He married in his 30s and had a daughter.
Augustus Chapdelaine, a French missionary went to Guangxi in the 1850s to
preach the gospel. At this time, Christian missionaries were forbidden to enter
the interior of China away from the treaty ports. Bai was baptized as a
Catholic in 1855 and took the name 'Lawrence'. He became closely attached to
Chapdelaine.
He was a Catholic for
only a year before he was put to death. At the time, a bitter civil war was
being fought in China between the Taiping rebels and the Qing government. The
Taipings were Christians who believed that their leader Hong Xiuquan was the
brother of Jesus Christ. The rebellion had started in Guangxi and the Qing
armies massacred huge numbers of civilians in areas that were associated with
the rebellion.
Augustus Chapdelaine was
known in Guangxi for carrying out missionary activities in a way that offended
traditional Chinese customs and culture, especially concerning ancestor
worship. In 1856, Chapdelaine was arrested by Qing authorities and they decided
to execute him rather than to deport him to one of the Chinese treaty ports
where European missionaries were legally permitted to stay. Bai Xiaoman spoke
out against his sentence and was arrested by the Qing authorities. Fifteen
others were also arrested in association with this episode, including another
saint named Agnes Tsao Kou Ying who was also put to death.

Den hellige Laurentius
Bai Xiaoman (1821-1856)
Minnedag: 28.
september
En av de hellige
martyrene fra Kina (Den hellige Augustin Zhao Rong og
hans 119 ledsagere)
Den hellige Laurentius
Bai Xiaoman [Pe-Man] ble født i 1821 i distriktet Shuicheng i provinsen Guizhou
[Kouy-Tcheou] i Kina. Han kom fra en svært fattig familie og hans foreldre døde
mens han var svært ung. Som 20-åring kom han til provinsen Guangxi [Kouang-Si]
for å søke arbeid som dagarbeider for å tjene til livets opphold.
Som 30-åring flyttet han
i 1851 til landsbyen Yaoshan i distriktet Xilin i provinsen Guangxi og fikk
arbeid der. Alle som ble kjent med ham, likte ham fordi han behandlet alle ,ed
ærlighet, vennlighet og oppriktighet. Det var i denne landsbyen han giftet seg.
Siden han ikke hadde noe eget hus, flyttet han inn for å bo hos svigermoren.
Året etter fødte hans hustru en datter. Folket i dette området var for det
meste i praksis vegetarianere, men i tillegg til å avstå fra kjøtt, avsto han
også fra brennevin.
I 1854 kom p. Ma Lai (den
hellige Augustin
Chapdelaine) til Guangxi for å starte en misjonskirke. Bai Xiaoman fulgte
ham ganske lenge før han bestemte seg for å gå over til den kristne tro. I
dåpen ble han gitt navnet Laurentius. Men bare ti dager senere ble p. Ma Lai og
fire andre katolikker arrestert. Da Laurentius hørte at misjonæren var
arrestert, skyndte han seg for å slutte seg til ham. Han brakte flere kvinner
til retten for å redde sine arresterte menn. De ble sendt bort, men mandarinen
lot sitt raseri gå ut over ham.
Da den lokale dommeren
beordret ham til å avsverge sin tro, svarte han at han heller ville dø enn å
forråde sin Herre. For dette svaret ble han utsatt for all slags tortur. Han
besvimte flere ganger under mishandlingen, men han holdt fast ved troen. Han
fikk et bur (cang) plassert rundt nakken natten mellom 25. og 26.
februar 1856. Han ble brakt for retten dagen etter, og da han fortsatt nektet å
oppgi troen til tross for torturen, dømte dommeren ham til døden.
På vei til henrettelsen
møtte Laurentius sin svigermor og tok farvel med henne. Stedet der han ble
henrettet, var like utenfor den sørlige porten i Su-Lik-Hien i provinsen
Guangxi. Han ble halshogd den 26. februar 1856, og hans jordiske rester ble
etterlatt i skogen der for å bli spist av ville dyr.
Laurentius ble saligkåret
den 27. mai 1900 (dokumentet (Breve) var datert den 7. mai) av pave Leo XIII
(1878-1903) som en av gruppen «Den salige Gabriel Johannes
Taurin Dufresse og 12 ledsagere». Ordet ledsagere i denne forbindelse betyr
ikke at de faktisk ledsaget ham, men at de led martyrdøden i Kina og ble
saligkåret sammen med ham. Han ble helligkåret den 1. oktober 2000 på
Petersplassen i Roma av pave Johannes Paul II som en av de 120 martyrene fra
Kina (den hellige Augustin Zhao Rong og hans 119 ledsagere).
De 120 martyrene fra Kina
har minnedag 28. september. Hans minnedag er ellers 24. november.

San Lorenzo Bai Xiaoman, Mártir
Febrero 25
En la ciudad de Xilianxian, en la provincia china de Guangxi, san Lorenzo Bai
Xiaoman, mártir, artesano y neófito, que prefirió ser azotado y degollado antes
que negar a Cristo (1856).
Lorenzo Pe-Man (Bai-Xiaoman) era un modesto obrero que había nacido en la
provincia de Chouy-Tchen, y había ido al Kuang-si cuando tenía veinte años en
busca de trabajo. Aquí se encontró con san Augusto Chapdelaine y adoptó la fe
cristiana, recibiendo el bautismo de manos del santo misionero.
Desde aquel momento fue un excelente cristiano y no quiso separarse del
sacerdote. Lo acompañó a Su-Lik-Hien donde el misionero esperaba hallar asilo,
y con él fue arrestado y llevado al tribunal. En él declaró firmemente su fe y
se negó a apostatar, como se le exigía para salvar la vida. Las amenazas no le
intimidaron, ni se volvió atrás con la tortura. En vista de su tenacidad en
confesar a Cristo fue decapitado el 25 de febrero de 1856.
Lo canonizó el papa Juan Pablo II el 1 de octubre del año 2000 con los otros
mártires de China.
