On Sunday, February 9, 2014, Faith Presbyterian Church of Cape Coral, FL welcomed the community to celebrate the rededication of their new sanctuary. In an interview with the Cape Coral Daily Breeze, Head Pastor H. Timothy Halverson said, “This is the culmination of 10 years of work and planning. We knew we had a need for more space for our growing ministry which first included acquiring more land. Our project was not only to provide a new and beautiful sanctuary with more sanctuary and choir seating, a cry room, updated nursery and toddler rooms, expanded restrooms and overflow seating in the narthex, but to also add needed classrooms and parking. Our vision was, and still is, to be a church of hospitality, a church where Christ’s transforming love is available to all (which meant that we had to provide each person with a seat and parking space, a wonderful challenge that our congregation accepted).”
Renovating the sanctuary was part of the final phase of this major project and we are incredibly honored Faith Presbyterian chose to have their custom furniture built by King Church Furniture. Before getting started on the 113 custom crafted pews, we field measured the sanctuary and worked with the church to adjust the layout. Each pew was constructed of oak wood with Minwax honey finish and covered in a beautiful neutral fabric that the church selected. Along with seating for the congregation, they needed a new pulpit and communion table, baptismal font, choir and organ screens, as well as a wall cross. We constructed custom mitered choir and organ screens and built the large, 15’8 x 10’8 wall cross based on their designs. Once the manufacturing process was complete, we loaded 4 trucks (an entire truck was required for just the wall cross) and delivered to the church. After 2 ½ days of installation, the sanctuary was transformed.
