OUR
MASTER PLAN

The  master plan is a framework that lays out the long-term path of development for church property and church mission. A core team of church members came together in 2021  to plan and develop new designs to enhance our campus.

Master Plan Update 2025

2025 started with an engaging activity for FCCE members to weigh in on the Master Plan process. On Sunday (1/19/2025) more than 25 members of the congregation participated in an interactive workshop supported by the Master Plan Team.

​

FCCE members divided into four table groups. Each table was given the opportunity to think creatively about how our property might be configured to accommodate our vision for the future. Each table was given a site plan (to scale) and four sets of scaled construction paper objects representing affordable senior housing, educational building, wellness center, outdoor space and “other.” The goal was to determine where best to locate these spaces. There were lots of interesting conversations happening as each group worked independently. At the end of the activity, each group shared their ideas with the larger group. What emerged were very similar ideas placing housing closer to the current property entrance and the educational building at the eastern end of the campus. These ideas had much in common with what the Master Plan team has been working on.

​

These findings were shared with our consultants from the UCC Church Building & Loan Fund/ AIM Development Group to determine the feasibility of developing our property to serve our mission and sustain our church for generations to come.
