From Patheos-Virginia Theological Seminary is preparing to construct a new main campus entrance on Seminary Road as part of improvements that also include building a new chapel to replace one that burned in 2010.
The new entrance is part of the seminary’s campus improvements that include a “Worship and Welcome Quad.” The new Immanuel Chapel will be built near where the former chapel stood, and the seminary has completed a “Chapel for the Ages” capital campaign to raise $13 million for the construction.
The old chapel will be transformed into an outdoor sacred space.
Heather Zdancewicz, vice president of administration and finance for the seminary, said campus officials hope to begin utility work for the new entrance and chapel by July 1. The school is located at 3737 Seminary Rd.
“As part of the overall project in building a new chapel, we will move the entrance westward from its current location by approximately 50 feet,” Zdancewicz told Patch. “It will still be east of Fort Williams Parkway."
