Providence Baptist Church Breaks Ground!

In a ceremony on Sunday, July 19, 2015, Providence Baptist Church in Hayes, VA broke ground for their new Phase 1 Fellowship Center expansion. Architect William Henry Harris & Associates joined JH Batten General Contractors from Walkerton, North Carolina as a Design/Build Team for the project.

Both firms are members of the National Association of Church Design Builders - NACDB, an organization dedicated to providing the highest caliber of service to the Mid -Atlantic Region and its religious community.

The new Fellowship Center will double the size of the church's seating capacity for fellowship events. It will also include a new Commercial Kitchen and handicapped accessible bathrooms and showers. A new entry Commons and covered drop-off will enhance the access from the parking lot, and additional parking and landscaping will complete the design.

Future Phases will include a Multi-Purpose Outreach Center and additional classrooms for Christian Education. 

Celebrated long time members of Providence Baptist Church break ground for the new Fellowship Wing.

Other church members watch the Ground Breaking Ceremonies.
