Project Backdrop –

The church has continued to grow to the point where ministry is beginning to be restricted due to lack of space. In order to effectively serve the people of the Hingham area in the future, we need to increase our sanctuary and Sunday School facilities. Over several years the Church has prayerfully sought God’s will in the expansion plan and continues to look in faith to God’s direction and timing. The mission of the Church has always been to reach out to the lost and to build up the faith of believers who come to worship as opposed to numeric growth. The elders and the congregation have determined that the most effective strategy to accommodate the growth is to build in the current location.

Project Status –  

August 2008 | SSBC is on the Board of Health’s agenda for August 21 7:00pm. This meeting will be a continued discussion of SSBC’s Technical Engineering Proposal to the Town. 

June 2008 | The hearing with the Board of Health has been set for July 17, and work is under way for a Planning Board application as well as a Conservation Commission application. 

April 2008 | The Building Committee is pleased to inform you that a detailed application has been completed and submitted to the Board of Health for consideration of the Church’s proposal to build and specifically for approvals of engineering site plans and related variances. No hearing date has been set. Stand by for updates and details on next steps. Please contact members of the Building Committee if you have any questions.
