Taylors First Baptist Church begins renovations
June 22, 2016
Good City Architects, an architecture and interior design firm based in Greenville, S.C., has completed the design of renovations to Taylors First Baptist Church. The project, which is now under construction, is intended to improve the experience of visitors entering the church and improve traffic flow inside.
Taylors First Baptist has been located at 200 Main Street in Taylors since 1885. Changes to landscape and paving will make it easier for first-time guests to find their way inside, and new seating is being added to the church’s existing library and in a newly created outdoor court. A reconfigured information center will make it easier for members and guests to learn about and become engaged in the ministry of the church.
“With last year’s celebration of 150 years of ministry in Taylors, we looked toward the future with excitement about changes we should make for lives to be changed for God,” said Dr. Paul Jimenez, pastor. “As a congregation, part of our values includes growing together by engaging with Jesus and each other to become more like Him. These changes in our physical structure will certainly create a better environment for that kind of engagement and informal interaction where so much face-to-face ministry happens.“
Construction is expected to take approximately 100 days until completion. Caldwell Constructors of Greenville is the general contractor.
