New Braunfels' Oakwood Baptist Church broke ground on a new 52,000-square-foot worship center in November, according to a Facebook post.

The details

The new $28 million worship center will provide the additional space needed by the church, which currently has three services and uses overflow space for two of them, Oakwood Pastor Rusty Rice said.

The center will be located within the original complex, Northeast of the main church building. The construction will yield a new worship center, additional parking and infrastructure improvements. The new center is expected to open around Easter 2027, Rice said.
