Overview

The focal point of this worship facility is a large, octagonal-shaped, brick-clad sanctuary, featuring a 50-foot high ceiling with exposed steel framing. Situated at the apex, a skylight brings daylight into the worship area. Two one-story wings, accommodating classroom and meeting space, stretch out from the sanctuary. At their junction, a nearly free-standing social hall repeats the octagonal theme.
