St. John Baptist Church Steeple Installation
St. John Baptist Church, located at 8131 Roxbury Road in Charles
City County, closed the final chapter on its rise from the ashes with a Steeple raising that took place during the first week of June, 2011.
The new Steeple will crown a new Sanctuary and Educational Wing that replaced an existing historic church in Charles City County that fell victim to arson in 2004. The new facility was completed in 2007 and includes a 300-seat auditorium, administration space, fellowship space, and Christian education and support spaces. The traditional style church decided to wait for the Steeple until additional funds became available.
The $40,000 steeple was installed by Evans Construction of Sandston from designs by church architect William Henry Harris & Associates, Inc. of Richmond.
