Capital Project

February 2016
1
Strategy
Our Mission is best
expressed in the
Great Commission
and Great
Commandment
‘make disciples…
love God, and love
others.’
2
• School of Discipleship
• Believe that we are called to be a sending
church.
• Facilitate deep and meaningful connection
between God’s people.
• Worship increasingly communal and interactive
3
• Belong before you Believe
• We must remove barriers which inhibit people
from hearing, understanding, and
appropriating its message.
• We must lead the way in the unique
challenges faced by First and New Canadians.
4
We must take an
active role as a
reproducing church:
exploring new
expressions of church;
coming alongside
ailing churches; and
establishing new
‘beach-heads’ for the
proclamation of the
Gospel.
5
• We must extend the Gospel proclamation
which occurs on our campuses.
• We need to creatively and winsomely take the
message of the Gospel using unconventional
methods (e.g. Adult Expo, Comic-Con wherever God leads!)
6
• Be excellent stewards of the church and school
facilities God has provided us. Part of this
responsibility includes maintaining that which we
already possess. Our church and school campuses
are the hub from which most of our ministry activity
originates.
• Renew our church facilities and prepare them for the
next era of ministry.
7
Facility Needs
• Our room is well used.
• More than 2.5 million people visits have taken place
since any renewal has been undertaken.
• The pew fabric is more than 30 years old; The carpet is
more than 20; When the air circulation system isn’t
running, the air smells decidedly musty.
• Our technology is outdated. Most of our sound, video,
and lighting technology is at the end of its useful life.
8
Recommendation
• Divide the total project into manageable phases.
• The proposed scope of Phase 1 is as follows:
• Auditorium Renewal
• Cross prominently displayed as part of the room
• Environment elements: Seating; Flooring; Ceiling Repairs; Enhancement
of Balcony North
• Technical elements: Audio, Video and Lighting Systems; Stage and Fly
systems; Consolidation of technical teams
• Safety and Security
• Facility wide communications system
• Training content and learning management system
• Optimized SCS Office
9
Considered for Phase 2
• Community Wing
• Multi-use Chapel for Weddings, Funerals and Youth
• Fellowship Hall
• Kitchen
• Washrooms
• Parking and access
• Offices
• Relocation of SonBurst to current office location
• Hold and Secure capability; Lock down capability
10
Out of Scope
• The cost of the warehouse changes is prohibitive
so the current plan is to leave it as cold storage.
• The asbestos in the warehouse has been
removed.
11
Concept
1. Larger, lower stage
2. Flexible seating as
to number and
location; easy for
wheelchair
3. In room storage for
extra chairs
4. Combined
technical booth
with space for
online section
leaders
5. Alternate Balcony
North with
washrooms
6. Renewed technical
systems and better
acoustics
