Project Description:

The design of this facility is sleek, modern, and economical. The sanctuary is wrapped by a wooden arch construction and a crown shaped skylight that showers the space with light on all sides with walls consisting of split face cmu on the interior and exterior. The circular entrance lobby space is flanked by 50 seat chapel and fellowship hall with commercial kitchen. The central circulation has its own dynamic appeal, bowing out as if to “breath in the word of God”. The beacon Bell tower provides the central axis from the street to the entrance welcoming all who enter.
