Joseph was the 3rd child of the Zhang household, with Gregory and Lei-Ma being born several years before. In 1954, Joseph moved to Colorado Province, fleeing political violence against Minjian within San Fernando. While in Colorado, Zhang lived at a Minjian convent and was able to be accepted into the Convent College of Colorado in 1970.
