The Pipe – First Presbyterian Church of Flint Renovation

This interior renovation project for First Presbyterian Church of Flint is EV’s second project with this client. This renovation will provide a highly-needed updated space to support the children’s youth ministry program, called “The Pipe,” a program that has seen significant growth in the past few years. This renovated space will also provide areas for the church’s wider community support programs and initiatives. EV Construction has a strong relationship with this church, having been selected as a construction manager for this project based on the success of our previous renovation at the church, “The Grove,” in 2019
