Aspen Team Celebrates Completion of Living Hope Church!

 

Our Frankfort Office Team recently celebrated the completion of another great church project, this time at Living Hope Church in Merrillville, Indiana. This exciting project featured a major “face lift” for the front of the building as new lobby, gathering space, and Third Place café areas were added. Significant renovation was also done in the youth areas. You can see some more pictures of our team enjoying the new space as in the “Living Hope Celebration” section of the Photo Gallery. There are some additional completed pictures in the “Living Hope Merrillville” section as well. Stay tuned for the postcard and professional pictures!

Living Hope Church under construction!

Work has begun at Living Hope Church in Merrillville! This is another exciting Aspen project with ministry-focus at the heart of design.  Our initial Visioning and Feasibility stages revealed a family-oriented, friendly, loving church with a mission focus.  Specific facility needs surfaced to support outreach, personal growth, kids and youth and an overall image upgrade.  The Aspen Team has designed an addition/remodel with new fellowship/connecting space--including a state-of-the-art cafe--, remodeled children's and youth areas with their own connecting space and a larger narthex.

The images below give a sense for the changes in store at Living Hope.
