Abstract
Until now much research focuses on the interaction between the West and China during the late Ming and early Qing dynasties from the perspectives of thought and culture. However,few of the researchers concentrate on the religious practices of Chinese Catholics in that time. This article first analyzes the main literatures about the religious practice of Chinese Catholics during the late Ming and early Qing. Then it focuses on the characters and meaning of the religious practices from personal religious lives and groups'organizations. The conclusion compares Chinese Catholicism and Buddhism on“reciting scriptures" and“merit" so as to find out the distinction of Chinese Catholicism to shape its identity. The author tries to point out that the emphasis on the religious practices by Chinese Catholicism during late Ming and early Qing is one of the decisive causes to make people convert to Catholicism.
