Chongyi Church

Chongyi Church, Protestant church in Hangzhou, China.

Chongyi Church is a Protestant building in Hangzhou with a large fan-shaped worship hall topped by a tall cross visible from outside. The interior space is designed to accommodate a large congregation and features modern architectural elements built for group gatherings.

Hudson Taylor's China Inland Mission settled in Hangzhou in November 1866, and in 1902 the first Chongyi Church was built at 77 Qintai Street. After unified worship was imposed in October 1958, the site became a railway materials warehouse and hospital. The congregation reopened in the 1980s, and the present building on Xintang Road was completed on 5 May 2005 after CN¥40 million was raised.

The name Chongyi (崇一) comes from the China Inland Mission, whose founder Hudson Taylor based his first mission settlement in Hangzhou in November 1866; the church was the first congregation the mission built in China. Sunday services run 7:30–9:30 and 10:00–11:45, with English translation by remote headsets and a small English prayer service at 3:30pm.

Sunday services run 7:30–9:30 and 10:00–11:45, each drawing around 5,000 people; English translation is available through remote headsets, and a small English prayer service is held at 3:30pm. The church stands at 26–28 Xintang Road in Shangcheng District. Plan around service times rather than a general opening.

The cross on the roof rises 77 metres, and the site on Xintang Road was rebuilt after 2000 when the city agreed to relocate the congregation; the new hall opened in May 2005. The earlier church on Qintai Street, built in 1902, had been turned into railway warehouses in 1958.
