VICTORY LIFE CHURCH – Battle Creek, MI
Prior Circumstances: With 1,600 people and six worship services per weekend, Victory Life Church had maximized the benefits of their current space. Based on their mission/vision and resulting needs of their ministries, they deemed it necessary to implement Phase Two of their long-term architectural master plan designed in partnership with Jeffrey Parker Architects. Also, the new construction must not interfere with Victory Life’s ongoing daily ministries.
Solution: Phase Two was carefully planned and designed so that Victory Life could proceed with their daily ministries during construction of their new 32,850 square foot building addition. The inviting, award-winning design (WFX Solomon Design Excellence Award, ABC Construction Excellence Award and showcased in Front of House Magazine) features:
- New 820-seat, technology-rich sanctuary
- 100- and 200-seat, multi-use youth auditoriums
- Spacious church commons (lobby and multi-use event venue) with casual, soft seating areas
- 106-seat vintage inspired coffee shoppe and banquet room
- Outdoor patio and ¾ mile looped walking/biking trail
- Existing sanctuary was repurposed to serve as a children’s ministry center
