Childress & Cunningham facilitated an extensive programming and prioritizing process which included in depth input from various ministry teams. Through active listening and analysis Childress & Cunningham developed specific critical success factors and program requirements that guided the total design process. Phase 1 was developed to include a multi-purpose auditorium that will serve as an interim worship space until a new sanctuary is built in Phase 2. High ceilings with vaulted configuration add interest and sound attenuation to the auditorium and allow the space to function as a family life center and gymnasium in the future.
