The Chadbourn Spanish Gospel Mission is a Mission Revival building from the Conejos District of Colorado Springs, Colorado. The building is on the National Register of Historic Places.〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=National Register of Historic Places listing of El Paso County, Colorado )〕 Beginning in 1930 the church and mission provided religious, educational, sports, and mission services to the members of the Conejos District. It was supported by members of Protestant Churches, which formed an advisory team that managed acquisition of funding for the mission. It was founded by Ruth Chadbourn, a missionary who had moved to Colorado Springs for her health. ==Conejos District== The Conejos District was an area in Colorado Springs that was home to a Mexican community beginning at the turn of the 20th century who had moved to the area to work at the nearby Denver & Rio Grande Railroad, mills and mines. Many members of the Hispanic community came from the San Luis Valley.〔 They moved into an area that had been home to people of Scandinavian and Jewish heritage who moved to other areas of the city.〔 The district lies between Colorado Avenue and Mill Street to the north and south. The eastern and western borders are the Denver & Rio Grande Railroad yard and Monument Creek. Families lived in frame houses on narrow lots and there were stores in the neighborhood to serve the community.〔 The Chadbourn Spanish Gospel Mission is the only structure that remains from the district.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Chadbourn Spanish Gospel Mission」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
