The master plan for the new church is sited along a ridge with an orientation for maximum visibility. This relocation is a phased process and will relocate the youth and singles to the new site first. Later phases complete the move of the entire campus. The church is three levels and is recessed into a hillside on the site. The parking is distributed on three sides of the campus. A series of round glass atrium spaces mark the main points of entry into the church facilities. Primary exterior finishes are stone, brick, split face block, precast concrete, an exterior stucco product, and glass.
