Английская Википедия:Gospel Church, Jiangyou
Gospel Church (Шаблон:Lang-zh) is a Protestant church in the county-level city of Jiangyou, Mianyang, Sichuan Province. Founded in 1894, it was formerly an Anglican church in the West Szechwan Diocese of the Church in China.[1]
History
In 1894, a group of Church Missionary Society (CMS) missionaries led by the Rev. James Heywood Horsburgh introduced Anglicanism into a small town known as Шаблон:Ill (formerly romanised as Chungpa) under the administration of Jiangyou.[2] They established churches and mission stations across western Sichuan,[1] Chungpa Church was the first church building in the province founded by the CMS.[3]
After the communist takeover of China in 1949, Christian Churches in China were forced to sever their ties with respective overseas Churches, which has thus led to the merging of Gospel Church into the communist-established Three-Self Patriotic Church.[4]
During the 2008 Sichuan earthquake, the church was damaged beyond repair. A new Gospel Church was built at the junction of Fujiang Road and Qingxin Alley, completed in an entirely neo-Gothic style.[1]
