LaVergne First United Methodist Church





Location: LaVergne, Tennesse
Project Scope: New church addition and renovations
LaVergne First United Methodist Church is a multi-generational congregation having experienced immense growth over the last several years. It became unclear how best to serve their parishioners, so the church’s building committee sought the assistance of Dow Smith Company. Our team developed a master plan for the church, outlining phases of construction that included a new fellowship hall, sanctuary, as well as renovations of existing educational and administrative space. The project also included the conversion of the original fellowship hall into a foyer and welcome center for patrons. Despite the challenges associated with performing construction while the church remained open, our team was able to complete the project in nine months.
At DSC, one of the key stations on our Flywheel is what we call the Exceptional and Unique Experience—one of our three defining “uniques.” This is not just a concept; it’s a critical part of our process that keeps the Flywheel turning and fuels the enduring success of DSC.
