Provo Community Congregational United Church of Christ is situated in the vibrant Historic District of Downtown Provo at the southwest corner of 200 north and University Avenue. The original building on the property (to the south) was built in 1923 in the Spanish Colonial Revival style with funds donated by church member Meno Trope and dedicated in March of 1924.. During a boom in population with a new workforce entering the Utah Valley in the 1940’s and 1950’s the church saw much growth and added to the north of the existing structure in 1955-56 (dedicated in January of 1957) a Mid-Century Modern / International Style soaring A-frame Sanctuary and additional multi-purpose spaces.
Street parking is available on 200 North, University Avenue, and multiple nearby public parking lots, including the south end of Smith’s and parking terraces within a short walking distance. After business hours parking may be available at our neighbors KeyBank and Jones Paint and Glass. A rapid bus system (Utah Valley Express) is available with stops nearby along University Avenue with one located just half a block north of the church with buses running every 5-15 minutes, depending on the time of day.
The Sanctuary is called upon for worship services as well as for community and private events such as concerts and recitals, weddings, lectures, choral rehearsals, and more. It seats approximately 300 with access to an our Rodgers electronic 2-manual organ (a stop list is available by request), and Baldwin 6’3″ grand piano.
The Fellowship Hall, adjacent to the Sanctuary, has a large kitchen and can host approximately 100 with dining tables. This space may be used for events, dances, classes, rehearsals, or lectures and is also available for use with access to an upright piano.
Meno Trope Hall Auditorium, located in the 1924 upper portion of the building, is accessed by stairs and hosts concerts, dances, plays, parties, classes, rehearsals, or lectures with access to a 5’8″ Emerson grand piano.
Classroom spaces are also available in the lower portion of the 1924 building, accessed by stairs with access to an upright piano.
