Our new sanctuary is significantly more than a large auditorium. The intent of the design is to create an environment for worship through form and function. The architectural elements reflect our desire for this to become a place of reverence and awe.

A Bible Storyline
Upon entering the narthex from the courtyard entrance, look up and notice on the walls to the left and right, a series of friezes. There are a total of 36 images which highlight many of the most familiar stories from both the Old and New Testaments. These beautiful works of art were designed and created by Barry Parks. Each design was cut from corrugated plastic sheeting using an Exacto knife. A thumbnail copy of each design, along with its description and scripture reference are linked below.
