This is a photograph of Fr. Weis conversing with the Korean Christians at Fushun. He is holding a book and is the center of the group's attention. Born in Wisconsin, Fr. Weis came to Maryknoll in 1929 and was ordained to the priesthood in 1932. He was assigned to China the same year and labored there for eight years as pastor and rector of the minor Seminary in Fushun, Manchuria. He spent many years after this assignment working in the education field in the United States.
