Gastonia NC First ARP Church of Gastonia

First Associate Reformed Presbyterian Church had experienced substantial growth and was in need of additional space in numerous areas.

After reviewing the existing facility and the overall site the following needs were identified and worked into a new comprehensive master plan.

-Additional Choir Practice Room with Dressing

Rooms, Music Director, Storage, and Rest Rooms

-New Fellowship Hall with a large Commercial Kitchen

and Storage, Rest Rooms, and General Storage.

-Connection of the Fellowship Hall to the existing

Sanctuary as well as the existing Classroom Building.

-Create an attractive Courtyard as an entrance focal

point from the rear parking areas.

The Courtyard spans from there to the main entrance bordered on both sides by the Sanctuary and the Educational Building.

-Create new Office and Classroom areas in the first

level ( the original Fellowship Hall ) of the existing classroom building.
