Shepherd of the Hills Lutheran Church
Shepherd of the Hills is partnered with GROTH Design Group to develop an expansion of a new worship space to connect to their existing building campus.

The multi-level 31,000 square foot addition includes a new 800+ theatrical style worship space, gathering/fellowship space, café, bookstore, meeting space, youth and adult education space and restrooms. Both the new and existing worship space rely heavily on technology, specialty lighting and acoustics. The existing worship is intended to serve as overflow worship seating at heavily attended worship services.
The main venue can stream live video to the second space so attendees can experience the same service in tandem. The existing worship space was renovated and classrooms were created in the old balcony.
A large double-sided fireplace is a focal point in the gathering space providing intimate seating areas on three sides. Amenities such as ‘touch-down’ technology/charging stations, coffee areas, and family restrooms and a parenting area provide flexibility and contribute to the offerings the new space provides.

GROTH Design Group was selected by the Congregation of Faith Evangelical Lutheran Church to design a Master Phasing Plan for a new church and educational facility.
This project resulted in the complete reorientation and remodeling of the worship space and gathering area at Midvale Community Lutheran Church.
