Greer Religious Notes James Thomas Brickman Recently, the Franklin Lakes Baptist Church family participated in a ground breaking ceremony to celebrate an addition to the main church building on Franklin Avenue. The church will remain open as usual throughout the renovation project. This addition will incorporate an elevator to accommodate barrier-free access at the main entrance. This work will also include renovating the rest rooms for barrier-free access. FLBC had its humble beginnings in October of 1960, when a group met and worshipped at the Ramapo Regional High School. The church purchased the existing property at 649 Franklin Avenue in the mid 1960s, including a house and an old barn. The house would serve as the parsonage, and work was started on the old barn to convert it into the first church facility. The first service on this resurrected barn took place on Easter Sunday, 1965. The converted barn now serves as a multi function building. It also serves as the meeting place for the AWANA kids ministry on Wednesday nights from September through May, as well as the summer VBS ministry from June through August. For more information about Franklin Lakes Baptist FLBC breaks ground on new addition Pictured are several of the founding members, with senior member, Sue Rothwell, a ‘young’ 100 years of age joyfully moving the first shovel full of dirt to kick off the project. Rothwell and members of her family, along with John and Simone Cook standing behind her, witnessed the original ground breaking of the church facility on Dec. 4, 1966.
