    Addition, renovations and modernization of existing church facilities.

    PRESENCE IN COMMUNITY

    This addition and renovation created a new larger presence on Street Road in Warminster.

    NEW FELLOWSHIP HALL

    The new Fellowship Hall Addition includes a large multi-purpose space, commercial kitchen, and new ADA restrooms.

    NEW MAIN ENTRY

    New covered main entry with stone piers and timber framing create a new strong focus on the church entry.

    ENERGY EFFICIENT EXPANSION

    The existing building was built before energy costs were an issue so the building was energy inefficient. This addition was design to encase the existing structure creating a new more energy efficient building envelope.

    NEW SOCIAL NARTHEX

    The new Narthex was design to not only be a social gathering and transistional space before and after worship services but to also provide for overflow seating. Sliding glass doors open up to expand the Sanctuary into Narthex. This allowed the Sanctuary to remain intimate while providing extra seating during peak seasons.

    TIMBER FRAMING & STEEPLE

    Timber framing at the new main entry and narthex support a skylighted steeple above bringing natural light deep into the narthex.
