Campus Master Plan Presentation #3 January 26, 2020
What is a Campus Master Plan? A roadmap document that guides the decision making process for the physical development of the campus. Believing the campus has the potential to manifest the mission and values of the church, the plan covers physical spaces, open spaces, circulation and gathering, transportation and parking, and sustainability.

Value #8: Tradition The Master Plan maintains the architectural integrity of the historic sanctuary and rich tradition of the church by: Preserving the historic portions of the campus (sanctuary, chapel, bride’s room, founders hall) in accordance with best practices for historic structures Renovating and expanding non-historic portions of the campus in accordance with best practices for historic property expansions (compatible but differentiated, authentic reflection of time built) Creating new prominently placed, communal archives and heritage room Exploring evolution of church facility design from fortress (provides sanctuary) to one that also opens up to its community (shares God’s word and work)
