Last service as 3M church work starts

A CHURCH which is set to build a new 3 million home will hold its final service at its current venue later this month.

Hope Community Church in Newtown is relocating while its current Dolfor Road site is demolished and its ambitious replacement is built.

Construction of the 3 million church is expected to take 12 months although a date has not yet been set for demolition work to begin, with the church still finalising arrangements for the relocation of its Hope Day Nursery.

While construction work is carried out the churchs congregation will be worshipping at the Pryce Jones building as of May 4.

A final service to celebrate the congregations time in its current building will be held at 10.30am on Sunday, April 27.

The event will feature a look back at the history of the building and a look ahead to the future home.

Following the service there will be refreshments and food and a chance for people to take a final look around the building.

When completed the new church will feature a 600 seat auditorium, which will allow space to double the congregation.

It will also include a cafe area, seminar rooms, a play gym, baby room, pre-school area, an outdoor activity area, an office suite and a boardroom with lift access to all floors.

The church currently provides a number of community services, including a toddler group, childrens clubs, after school clubs, a holiday club and Christmas services.
