Our team enjoyed worshiping with Abundant Life during their two dedication services on Sunday, January 3, 2016. The church presented each team member with a beautiful image of the church at sunrise printed on metal as well as personalized bibles. What a lovely gesture! Below are a few images from the two services.
Christ the King Lutheran Church, located in Lake Ozark, Missouri, held their dedication service on Sunday, January 10, 2016. St. Charles, Missouri based contractor JHooker Construction and Kansas City, Missouri based architect Mantel Teter teamed up to design and build this new Sanctuary facility to best satisfy the growing ministries of the church and their long-term vision. The project also includes expansion to their Lutheran school, King's Academy. Professional photos to come in the Spring!
The Summit, located in Lee's Summit, Missouri, broke ground on their 750 seat auditorium on Sunday, January 10, 2016. They had several complications in preparation for the service that morning, read what senior pastor, Jim Preisig, had to say about the day:
It would be no exaggeration to say that everything that could go wrong in the preparation for our groundbreaking ceremony actually did.
First, the weather was crazy, with torrential rain for several days prior. And then it became bitterly cold, with the temp falling precariously close to zero on Sunday morning.
We were honored to be apart of Abundant Life Baptist Church's first service in Lee's Summit, Missouri. The service was packed with an energetic crowd. This project has been a true labor of love for our team over the last four years. Below are a few photos Skyler snapped with his phone.
Westside Family Church held their dedication service on Sunday, September 13, 2015.
After leading the church staff through the Mantel Teter visioning and discovery process we were able to identify the needs of the church and start the design process to meet their objectives. These objectives included a 500 seat video venue auditorium which flows seamlessly with their existing 1,100 seat main auditorium, new middle school, high school and children's ministry space and a new lobby that blends with their current lobby. The team brought on general contractor, Pearce Construction, early on in the design process to assist with cost estimating and cost control.
