Church campus and architectural design

The master plan for the new parish campus included a church, chapel, parish center, education center, and rectory. The first phase, which included the new 1200-seat church, chapel, and parish offices, was completed in 2011.

The church features a cruciform-shaped floor plan and roof plan. Extensive use of natural wood helps establish a warm, inviting, and inspirational worship space.

The roof decking was constructed from southern yellow pine. Custom millwork pieces were fabricated from mahogany, including the pews, altar pieces, and confessionals.

KCBA and the parish collaborated with local artisans and sculptors to develop custom liturgical elements and integrate them into the design.
