Dungannon Baptist Church
 
     
 
Building project
 
 

Our 100 year old church building has been replaced by a new building more suitable for its purpose. The demolition of the old building commenced on the 13th October 2009 and the new building was officially opened on the 4th October 2009.

 
 

The picture on the left shows what the church should look like when it is finished, provided that all goes according to plan. Click on the picture to see a bigger version.

At present the build programme is basically on schedule and it looks like the first meetings in the new building will be held in September 2009.

A programme of events is being planned around the opening of the new building which will give people the opportunity to visit the building itself, but more importantly to hear why we believe it is important to invest time and money in putting up such a building as this.

We believe that a building is simply a tool to be used to help people hear and accept the message of the Bible and then help them to grow in their faith.
