“Lost in prayer,” a passerby might murmur, glancing at St. Anthony’s Church. But behind its serene facade, St. Anthony’s Church holds a vibrant history. It serves as a spiritual haven for many, nestled in the heart of Shenzhen at No. 65, Nonglin Road, Futian District. St. Anthony’s is often called the “New Church” by locals. For those seeking English mass, St. Anthony’s Church opens its doors every Sunday at 11:30 am. Its location is convenient, situated between the Chegongmiao and Zhuzilin subway stops, near the iconic China Merchants Tower. Just a kilometer north of Shennan Road, it’s easily accessible. From the Che Gong Miao Station, Exit “B” offers a direct path. A short taxi ride, about 10 minutes and roughly RMB 12.50, will also bring you to the church’s doorstep. For the adventurous, bus number 374 stops just before the main bus station, a short walk from St. Anthony’s. While St. Anthony’s caters to an international congregation, another church, St. Paul’s, offers Mandarin services in Nantou every Sunday at 9 am. This church, tucked away near the Nantou Security Bureau and Zhongshan Park, offers a different cultural experience. St. Anthony’s Church stands as a testament to faith and community in the bustling city of Shenzhen.
