天主教显圣容堂 (曼哈顿)
天主教显圣容堂(Church of the Transfiguration)是纽约市的一座罗马天主教本堂区圣堂,位于曼哈顿华埠的勿街(Mott Street)25号[3],属于天主教纽约总教区,由玛利诺外方传教会管理。今天是纽约市最古老的天主教堂建筑。
这座教堂兴建于1801年,乔治式建筑,最初属于锡安英语路德会[4],后来改宗美国圣公会,名为圣公会锡安堂(Zion Protestant Episcopal Church)。1815年大火后重建。[5]
19世纪40年代,许多欧洲新移民,尤其是贫穷的爱尔兰天主教徒来到该堂区范围Five Points,而早期的新教居民移居到城北。1853年,圣公会将此堂出售给1827年成立的罗马天主教移民教堂[6],服务于贫穷的爱尔兰天主教徒[7]。后来服务于意大利人以及华人移民[8]。
1996年,该堂列为纽约市地标,1980年列入国家史迹名录。
今天,该堂是一个华人天主教堂区,信徒几乎全部是华人。主日弥撒使用英语、粤语和中华民国国语[10]。拥有在华传教传统的玛利诺外方传教会神父管理该堂[11]。
