First Baptist’s new Chesterfield sanctuary to hold first service; probe of mayor-pastor continues
First Baptist Church of South Richmond is close to opening its satellite church in Chesterfield County, a project that has proven a trouble spot for its senior pastor, Richmond Mayor Dwight C. Jones. After more than 2 ½ years of construction, the 1,400-seat sanctuary in the 6200 block of Iron Bridge Road is expected to be ready for its first service Sunday, Sept. 25, church officials said Monday. The church’s website indicates the new sanctuary would serve as the site for the 9:15 a.m. service now held at Chesterfield County high school.
