Cathedral of St. John (Providence) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Cathedral of St. John (Providence, Rhode Island)
The Cathedral of St. John, located at 271 North Main Street, Providence, Rhode Island was formerly the seat of the Episcopal Diocese of Rhode Island of The Episcopal Church. The church closed in 2012 due to declining membership.〔 Currently, the church is being repaired and renovated to become a "museum and reconciliation center" focusing on the trans-Atlantic slave trade.〔 It is expected to open sometime in 2017.〔 ==History of the parish== The parish was originally organized in 1722 as ''King's Church'', a wooden structure that was renamed ''St John's Church'' in 1794. That building served Providence until 1810 when work began on what would become the Cathedral of St. John. The Episcopal Diocese of Rhode Island was formed in 1790, but it was not until 1929 that ''St John's Church'' was designated the Episcopal seat and was renamed the ''Cathedral of St. John''.
