Christ's Church, Tianshui Subdistrict

Christ's Church, Tianshui Subdistrict, Protestant church in Tianshui Subdistrict, Gongshu District of Hangzhou, China.

Christ's Church, Tianshui Subdistrict, stands at 2 Yesu Tang Lane, at the southwest corner of Zhongshan North Road and Tiyuchang Road. Its 2009 restoration returned the exterior to a Chinese style of whitewashed walls and dark grey tiles, with a lily-pattern brick carving set into the gable wall. Behind the church once stood missionary residences and men's and women's schools on an 80-mu complex.

Presbyterian missionaries from America established the original church in 1860, followed by a major rebuilding phase in the 1870s. The transformation of the building reflects the early growth of Protestantism in the city.

The church became a meeting place where Christian faith took root in Hangzhou, serving local congregations for generations. Today it continues to function as a community center for worship and religious gatherings in the city.

The church stands at No. 2 Yesu Tang Lane, at the southwest corner of the Zhongshan North Road and Tiyuchang Road junction in Tianshui Subdistrict. Its 2009 renovation ran from 29 March to a thanksgiving service on 25 September, restoring the whitewashed walls and dark tiles of the exterior. About 600 people regularly attend services, and the congregation also oversees meeting points in Genshan, Zhaohui, Dongxin and Huafeng.

John Leighton Stuart, later US ambassador to China (1946–1949) and president of Yenching University, was born in this church on 24 June 1876, the son of missionary John Leighton Stuart Sr., and lived here until he was 11. The 2009 restoration returned the exterior to its whitewashed walls and dark grey tiles, with a lily-pattern brick carving on the gable.
