The low to moderate income residential area is essentially flat land, treeless and endless one-story, single-family, three bedroom homes. A major concern was establishing the image of the church IS an important community building. It should not blend in with the monotonous community, but should stand out IS significant in the life of the community. It is a small building (13,000 s.f.) that wanted to be large. The basic philosophy, architecturally as well IS religiously, was that the altar is the central element in the church. The nave, which seats 250, surrounds the altar on three sides. The additional functions of the church such as classrooms, offices, library, Parish Hall and sacristies also surround the centrally located altar. There are no windows in the nave. light is focused on the altar from a 40 foot high light tower. There are no windows in the classroom elements, except the Priest's office: light is brought in through clerestories which reveal the sides of the sanctuary and nave box. Brick is used up to the height of all doon. Above the brick, on the interior, are 3" X 8" pine studs with 1" X 8" horizontal siding. On the exterior, cedar shingles are used above the bricks. The floors are mexican tile. The low budget of $13.00 per square foot was a major consideration. To achieve the height needed, the wall studs and roof framing were left exposed. The outside is simple containen, economical geometry and expressive of the plan and section that reflect the life of the church which revolves about the altar. The inside is exposed structure, efficient use of materials and expressive of what is holding the structure up.
