Where Are We Going?
In June 2020, after many months of prayer and disruption caused by the Covid-19 pandemic, Foundations Church was able to relocate to the south-eastern part of Williamsburg close to the I-64/Penniman Rd corridor. It's in the heart of an under-served community that has only a handful of vibrant gospel-centered churches - a community to which we have been called since we first began meeting publicly in September 2018.
Our current temporary home is DoubleTree Hotel and Conference Center which has graciously opened its doors to us throughout the Winter of 2020, just across the street from our new office spaces at 161-C John Jefferson Rd.
Our vision for this year, however, has been to secure access to the former J.C. Penny Building at 500 Marquis Parkway - a building that would allow us to serve far greater numbers of children, youth and adults - not just on Sundays - but throughout the week. Initial discussions concerning various potential leasing and purchasing options have been ongoing throughout the Spring with the goal of giving our growing church family a sense of stability and permanence as we boldly proclaim the good news of Jesus Christ among the 96% of Greater Williamsburg that have no regular church home.

What's The Update?
We are delighted to announce that in July 2020, Foundations Church secured a contract to purchase 500 Marquis Parkway as our new permanent church home. This agreement is contingent upon our the successful re-zoning of the property for church use - a process that is expected to last into the Spring of 2021 - and successfully raising the necessary funds for the purchase and renovation. More details to follow shortly.
