Christ Church Dongshan

Christ Church Dongshan, Baptist church in Dongshan, Yuexiu District, Guangzhou, China

Christ Church Dongshan is a two-story reinforced-concrete church in Guangzhou's Yuexiu District, built in an American style. It faces east on a 3,300-square-metre site, with a main building of over 1,000 square metres that includes a chapel, an auxiliary hall and a Sunday school. Inside, a circular hall seats 1,300 people.

The congregation began in 1870 at the Wuxianxi Gospel Hall, a Southern Baptist mission in Guangzhou. In 1908 the site was sold and a new hall built at 9 Sibeitongjin, Dongshan, completed in 1909, when the Dongshan Baptist Church was formally constituted. Growth led to a reinforced-concrete two-storey expansion, finished on 16 April 1927 with 1,300 seats. Renamed Christ Church Dongshan in 1960 under united worship, it closed in 1966 and reopened on 30 September 1979 as Guangzhou's first resumed Protestant church.

The church's name changed from Dongshan Baptist Church to Christ Church Dongshan in 1960, when it merged with other congregations under the union worship policy. Its Sunday services include a Cantonese service at 12:30, started in 1979, and an evening service in Mandarin and English at 16:00, added in 2017.

The church stands at No. 9 Sibeitongjin, in the Dongshan area of Yuexiu District, and faces east. Dongshankou station on metro lines 1 and 6 is the nearest stop. Services fill the 1,300-seat round hall, so arrive early for a seat and dress modestly.

The 1927 rebuild used reinforced concrete, not timber, so the two-storey structure and its 1,300-seat circular hall are a 1920s American-style design rather than early-1900s woodwork. The congregation had about 2,000 members by 1949.
