The days of a simple building for a church are long gone. Today's churches are being built to facilitate many facets of community needs. As a result, the task of church master planning, design and construction have grown increasingly complex. Modern facilities and renovation projects require the services of experienced planners, designers, engineers and construction services.

Current trends include larger worship centers to accommodate the needs of members and growing congregations. They often require the use of multi-media presentations, high quality sound systems and state of the art acoustical designs.

Educational facilities continue to grow with the additions of childcare, preschools and parochial schools. These areas are designed with maximum flexibility and durability in mind. Multi-purpose spaces serve as meeting rooms and gymnasiums. These spaces often require full commercial kitchens capable of feeding over 500 people in less than an hour.

As a church begins to grow it requires a professional staff to maintain day-to-day activities. Administrative facilities must be developed with the latest technology to meet the most recent office criteria including electrical, phone and data needs.

Our commitment to providing the highest degree of professional quality service is a hallmark of GUERNSEY. Our firm has worked with many church organizations to better our community.

Our clients come to us for a turn-key solution including planning, design, engineering and construction of their church facilities. GUERNSEY is frequently asked to help during all stages of a project from the conceptual planning, to land acquisition and development, to construction management. Our 3-D Modeling and rendering services also help facilitate fundraising campaigns, enabling potential contributors to see the fruit of their giving.
