(Richmond, VA) Located at 6000 Grove Avenue in Richmond’s west end, 
St. Stephen's Episcopal Church has begun renovations of its facilities 
with a Phase One replacement of their central cooling chiller located

Centennial Renovation Project will include a completely renovated 
Sanctuary including a new digitally controlled Heating Ventilating and 
Cooling system, refurbished floors, walls and ceiling, refurbished pews 
and chancel furnishings, and an enhanced Chancel with additional space 
for celebrants of the worship service.  Handicap access throughout the 
facility will be provided through the use of ramps, a new elevator, and

accommodate the activities of the Altar Guild, the Flower Guild, and 
the church members who prepare for the Celtic and Compline Worship 
Services.
