Holy Trinity Church in Frome is about to re-open for worship following a nine-month refurbishment project which has brought about a complete renewal of the interior of the building.
Church vicar, Graham Owen said, “We opened our doors for worship on Sunday 6th March and on Sunday 13th March at 10.30am we will be holding a special service of celebration with the Bishop of Taunton, the Right Reverend Ruth Worsley presiding.
“The main features of the project are; a new underfloor heating system and ceramic tile floor; new lighting and audio visual systems; a new entrance lobby and glass panels to bring more light into the building; refurbishment of the balcony so that it may now be used; new double doors connecting the church to the church hall; re-siting of the Singer screen; a new professional standard organ; creation of a new meeting room; complete re-decoration and introduction of flexible seating, allowing for different configurations depending on the type of service or event.
“The overall effect is one of welcome, warmth and light; it is a setting fit for the 21st century whilst also honouring our Victorian heritage, particularly the collection of Burne-Jones windows which are now beautifully highlighted.”
