KING GEORGE, Va. – A
one-hundred-and-two-year-old church in King George County is getting a new
parish hall.
Saint Anthony of Padua Mission Church, located
at 10299 Millbank Road,
celebrated its 100th year in 2017. In 1972, Saint
Anthony Mission Hall was built, but because the parish is growing, it’s being
replaced with a new one. Father Francis de Rosa, pastor of the
church, says he needed to double the capacity of the parish hall in addition to
adding meeting rooms, a bigger kitchen and new bathrooms. “This is a great moment in the history
of Saint Anthony’s. It says we are here to stay and are burgeoning. The
building will be an elegant Neo-Georgian edifice that will grace the tiny
hamlet of King George,” he adds.
The new hall will be
ready in June.
