A new landmark will be greeting travelers heading east into Tappahannock, Virginia. Wednesday, March 19th, the new Presbyterian Church on Route 360 East at the Kino Road insersection crowned the church with a white 39-foot steeple. Made by Campbellsville Industries in Campbellsville, Kentucky, the 1,200-pound aluminum steeple was raised into position with the help of a 50-foot crane.
Emerson Hughes - who played a guiding role in the fruition of this project - said, "This new church will serve as a source of energy for its members and visitors to live and witness for Christ in our diversified community. The glass front says the Spirit of Christ is visible to all people." He carried the cross to the top and helped to install it.
