We began our publications in 1997 with the writings of St Josemaría Escrivá.  More than 25 years have since passed and almost all his books have been translated into Chinese, plus a few other authors.  Spring has also published a few books for children.  The responses to these Chinese publications from readers in China, Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan have been most encouraging.
 

清泉的命名
Origin of the name “Spring”

以清泉命名,有三個原因。清泉是不斷湧出水源的開始,逐漸匯入大河。其次,清泉是指新的生長季節,象徵生活、充滿希望。最後,一捲金屬線圈被壓縮後會彈回其原始形狀的也稱為彈簧(spring)。

—Spring「泉水」

自地而生、無窮盡的水源,漸漸匯集成大河。這象徵著中國的俗語「清泉淹沒濁水」,也與聖施禮華經常建議的「美善淹沒邪惡」不謀而合。

—Spring「春天」

在那季節樹木開始發芽帶給人希望。

—Spring「彈簧」

聖施禮華曾說過,當我們受到考驗時,我們被重壓著就像被擠壓的彈簧,但是如果我們堅持不懈,天主會幫助我們渡過難關,我們會高高地騰躍反彈,比原來跳得更高。
 
The name “Spring” came about for three reasons.  A spring is the beginning of an unceasing source of water from the earth, that gradually pools into a great river.  Secondly, spring refers to the season of new growth; a symbol of life, of hope.  Finally, a coil of wire which bounces back to its original form after being compressed is also known as a spring.
