The challenge for this new construction project was to design a building that created a new identity for two parishes becoming one. Set within a traditionally agrarian locale, the architecture for Prince of Peace builds on the blessings of God’s Creation and the journey of God’s faithful within the created world. The open structure steeple and bell tower serve as a beacon to the surrounding area.
The building follows a cross-shaped plan that is articulated in common and uncomplicated brick with very simple stone and timber accents.
The project includes worship space with seating for approximately 1,000, gathering space, fellowship hall, offices, kitchen and mechanical basement. Master planning includes a school addition as a future phase.

The master plan design provides a new 40,000 SF building to house worship, fellowship, offices and meeting programs.

Involved from concept through construction administration, GROTH Design Group has tied the new 30-person chapel into the architecture of the church.
