The program required
additional space, handicapped access, and remodeling. The solution included
a new entry, remodeled narthex with elevator, and a remodeled sanctuary.
An addition at the rear included a new alter, choir area, offices, and
support spaces. There is a new baptismal pool which sits below the alter
with a sliding door within the platform floor system. The lower level included
a remodeled kitchen and fellowship hall, new offices, meeting and classrooms,
bathrooms and storage.
The exterior work included a facelift with new roof shingles and cupola,
as well as the new ramp-stair entry. The new addition at the rear consisted
of a primary hip roof with a continuous plane over a stepped plan configuration.
There are two flanking shed roof elements, acting as wings. A dormered
clerestory allows light to spill down over the alter. Ultimately, these
modifications and additions have transformed the church into a new, responsive
house of worship.
