Lilly Grove Missionary Baptist Church recently hired Urban Architecture to assist with their long range planning with the development of a Master Plan for their campus in Southeast Houston. In its 50 year history, Lilly Grove MBC has grown from a small wood frame building in Houston's Historic Third Ward community to a 1200 seat sanctuary and 40,000 SF Family Life Center on a 13 acre campus in the LaSalette / South Union community. With an average yearly growth of 6.3%, the church currently serves a membership of 7,000 that extends beyond the Houston City limits. Services are broadcasted throughout the world via internet, radio, and television. In 2004, Lilly Grove MBC has expanded abroad with the establishment of a church in Haiti - Lilly Grove MBC at Cabaret. The Haiti campus includes a sanctuary, school, and medical clinic. As Lilly Grove MBC continues to grow and serve the ecumenical and civic needs of its membership locally and abroad, Urban Architecture looks forward to their requests for professional architectural services.
