The Roman Catholic Church in Bhutan is part of the worldwide Catholic Church, under the spiritual leadership of the Pope and curia in Rome. In 1626, several Jesuits were traveling from Cochin and attempting to make a new route to the Jesuit mission in Tibet. They eventually came to the city of Paro in modern-day Bhutan. Two religious orders – Jesuits (in 1963) and Salesians (in 1965) were invited to the country to direct schools. The Salesians were expelled in February 1982 on disputed charges of proselytism. The only Catholic missionary allowed to stay in the country was Canadian Jesuit Father William Mackey who served Catholics there from 1963 until his death in 1995, but performed no conversions.
