Facility Improvements and Accessibility

The feedback we received highlighted a universal desire for a space that welcomes everyone with open arms. Improving our facilities and making them accessible to all isn't just a practical move; it's a statement about who we are. Whether it's making sure everyone can get through our doors with ease, upgrading our spaces to be more inviting, or ensuring our gatherings are comfortable and safe, these changes are about respecting and valuing each member of our community. There was strong and consistent messaging around facility improvements and accessibility as essential investments we should prioritize.

Merging the desire for physical space improvements with the need for enhanced accessibility, this category underscores the congregation's commitment to creating a welcoming, inclusive environment for all. It includes:

  • Accessibility improvements through a capital campaign, aimed at making facilities more welcoming and accessible to everyone, reflecting the commitment to inclusivity and support for diverse membership.

  • Enhancements to the building to support a diverse and growing membership, including updating interior aesthetics for a more welcoming atmosphere and creating spaces conducive to the congregation's varied activities.

  • Improving facilities for better hospitality and accommodation of community and social justice events, ensuring that the church's infrastructure supports its mission and the well-being of its congregation and visitors.
