The guiding principles as we seek to upgrade and improve our current facilities include:

• Clarifying our Vision [Our facilities are a tool for ministry and having a cohesive plan will help aid successful ministry in the future]
• Functionality [Entrances, Accessibility, etc.]
• Flexibility
• Efficiency
• Improved Security

All of these principles are ways that we can be good stewards of that which God has entrusted to our care. 

Our current facility is comprised of four interconnected buildings that we label A, B, C, and D (from newest to oldest). [click for a map of our current facilities labeled by letter] We knew from the outset that Building D presented numerous challenges and ultimately needed to be demolished, but we did not realize how intertwined Building D is with Building C. After extensive research and conversation with our architects we have determined that attempting to salvage Building C is not feasible.  It would be more cost effective to tear down both of those buildings and build new space than it would be to attempt to salvage Building C and subsequently bring it up to code. 

Building B [The Edwards Building] is structurally sound, but is in need of renovation in order to make better use of the space. That is where the initial work would begin as outlined below:
