About UsBroadmoor Presbyterian Church is a congregation of the Presbyterian Church (USA) through the Presbytery of the Pines and the Synod of the Sun. The congregation was chartered on November 17, 1947 with 139 charter members. At the time, the Broadmoor neighborhood was one of the fastest growing areas of Shreveport. The first services of worship were held in the Broadmoor Theater, which was located on Youree Drive.
In time, the congregation purchased 3.3 acres of land on Grover Place and on August 16, 1948 the congregation held a groundbreaking for new facilities. An old Army chapel was acquired and moved from Camp Livingston in Alexandria to serve as the sanctuary. Worship was first held in this facility on January 2, 1949. The present-day sanctuary was completed in 1970. Other facilities include a children’s education wing (which also houses the Mothers’ Day Out program), completed in 1954 and renovated in 2009, an adult education wing, which includes a small kitchen and formal parlor (completed in 1959), a full-size gymnasium/fellowship hall, and office area (completed in 1980). |
Members of the congregation of Broadmoor Presbyterian Church in Shreveport, LA, visit on the steps of the Sanctuary Building, which faces Grover Place and Arthur Circle School. Parking is limited in the front and widely available in the parking lot on the east side.
