Reconstruction church without tower.

Thaborkerk

Hengelo, NL

Modern church without tower in large expansion district in the north of Hengelo. Expansion in 1999. In shared use by the Protestant Samen op Weg (SoW) congregation, named "Brongemeente". This SoW congregation in Hengelo-Noord first met in a Christian primary school. As of January 1, 1997, the Brongemeente moved to the Roman Catholic Thabor church. This collaboration went so well that in 1999 the number of ancillary rooms of the Thabor church was more than doubled. And it continued to go very well. In the summer of 2008, the Thabor complex was furnished multi-functionally and a matching kitchen was added. (60-08)
