Aloysius Jin Luxian

Aloysius Jin Luxian (simplified Chinese: 金鲁贤; traditional Chinese: 金魯賢; pinyin: Jīn Lǔxián; June 20, 1916 – April 27, 2013) was a Roman Catholic bishop of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Shanghai.

Bishop Aloysius Jin was born in Shanghai into a family that had been Catholic for generations. He was orphaned as a youth, losing his mother when he was 10 and his father when he was 14. He attended Catholic schools and in 1938, at the age of 22, he entered the Society of Jesus, subsequently being ordained in 1946. He studied in France, Germany and Italy, before returning to China in 1951.

He was arrested with hundreds of priests and laity in the “September 8 Incident” in 1955, a major crackdown against the “counterrevolutionary clique” of Ignatius Gong Pinmei of Shanghai. He was subsequently released from prison in 1982 and became the founding rector of the Sheshan Major Seminary, outside of Shanghai.

Bishop Jin was ordained auxiliary bishop without Vatican approval in 1985, and became diocesan bishop of Shanghai in 1988. In 2005, the Holy See eventually recognized him as Apostolic Administrator to bishop Msgr. Joseph Fan Zhongliang.
