In an effort to be good stewards, we are wondering if there is a source for existing Church plans that could be studied and purchased.
It seems such excess to design a simple structure that has already been done - and to spend an additional 10% of building costs to "reinvent" the wheel.
Thanks,

Father Jeff:
It is every good Christian's true desire to remain a good steward. Unfortunately, its not that simple. There are church planners such as R. Messner Construction (http://www.rmessner.com/) that have large existing plan files. But, every jurisdiction in every State is uniquely different to the point that trying to use an existing set of plans is simply not possible.
Engineering codes, building codes, seizmic and wind design criteria, fault-zone proximity, soil conditions, planning and zoning requirements, neighborhood requirements, and environmental regulations are just a few of the modern-day design concerns.
To use an existing plan takes almost as much effort as designing a new floor plan that is customized to your ministry style, unique needs, and congregation demographics. In the long run, which really defines good stewardship? That is ultimately up to the shepherd of the flock to decide.
God bless you! |
