Located on a challenging hillside site, the design features a three-story prayer tower, a 900-seat sanctuary, a two-story glass atrium, two canopies, a youth center, a bookstore, a fellowship hall, ministry offices, choir and band rooms, a nursery, classrooms for preschoolers through adults, and a senior fireside room. The addition encompasses more than 37,000 square feet and is built with pre-engineered and custom steel, to be finished in stucco and stone veneer. Construction of the first phase began in winter 2001.
