In 1925 the Vatican Missionary Exhibition took place, presenting thousands of objects sent by Catholic missions around the world. Resulting from substantial efforts by the Church, the exhibition had a significant public impact, with an estimated one million visitors. It marked a critical moment in the international affirmation of the Church, as well as the reformulation and expansion of its missionary policy in the aftermath of the Great War.

Catholic missions and congregations in the Portuguese colonial empire participated in the exhibition. This article focuses on the Angolan case, where the Congregation of the Holy Spirit was the main protagonist of Catholic missionisation. I examine the organisation process, the circulation of norms and objects across imperial borders, and their exhibition at the Vatican. I discuss the tensions between the pontifical message and Portuguese missionary politics, as well as the intermediary position that the Spiritans occupied.

1925 年举办了梵蒂冈传教士展览，展示了世界各地天主教使团送来的数千件物品。由于教会的大力努力，展览产生了重大的公众影响，估计有 100 万参观者。它标志着国际上对教会的肯定，以及在大战后重新制定和扩大其传教政策的关键时刻。

葡萄牙殖民帝国的天主教传教团和会众参加了展览。本文重点讨论安哥拉的案例，其中圣灵会是天主教传教的主要主角。我研究了组织过程、规范和物品跨越帝国边界的流通，以及它们在梵蒂冈的展览。我讨论了宗座信息与葡萄牙传教士政治之间的紧张关系，以及精神派所占据的中介地位。
