First Baptist of Lewes purchases property

October 14, 2012

First Baptist Church of Lewes on Kings Highway announced the purchase of the adjoining property at their Sunday service, Sept. 30. The church has been trying to purchase the field next to their church, owned by the Jefferson Apartments, for years and, in the last year, negotiations began to take shape. The church has tentative plans to construct a church on the field.

According to Building Committee Chairman Bruce Plummer, the church has outgrown the existing building. They have to either buy the neighboring land or relocate. Shown is the building committee with the entire congregation in the background.
