The “Space to Grow” endeavor is rooted in our hopes for FLC and PPS to ‘grow’ through education – developmentally from infancy to adulthood, within our community and by outreach to expand our family and, of course, in our faith journey.
Completion of this space will give us the opportunity and vehicle for:
- a joyful learning environment
- lifelong learning
- greater security for our children
- building relationships
- fulfilling our baptismal promises
As the New Gathering Space has been completed, we reflect on how a well-planned building can facilitate fellowship, conversation, a welcoming atmosphere and especially faith. Fortunately, the pastoral staff and leaders of our church had the foresight to shell in the space below the Gathering Space, in hopes of someday using it as a vehicle of practical and purposeful use. A safe, effective and comfortable educational environment for the 4-5 year old children of FLC and Promise Preschool kids could be successfully fulfilled by finishing this shelled space with minimal effort. As a domino effect of this plan, an adult education space would also be available on the same level as the sanctuary. Also, families of Lutheran Social Service could access the new educational space for large motor play.
