The first building since 1925 has been purchased by an evangelical church in central Rome (half a mile from the Coliseum) to be a space for public worship.

The first hub for gospel work in decades has been launched to foster evangelical collaboration in the city and the first Protestant library to be opened in Rome since 1870 will encourage training and scholarship.

Breccia di Roma is a Reformed Baptist church which seeks to be instrumental in opening doors for the gospel in a city that has strongly opposed the Protestant faith for centuries.
