This is the first phase of the master plan for the development of this site. The new facility provides seating for 625, a recreation/parish hall seating for 300, and day chapel seating for 100. In addition, the building contains seventeen classrooms and four multi-use rooms.
The Parish’s desire to unite the existing, contemporary facility and the new Church in a unified, traditional composition, is accomplished through the use of an architectural style similar to the late nineteenth century Romanesque Revival. A new tower serves as a beacon to the surrounding community and accentuates the main entrance to the worship center.
