Emanuel Lutheran Church

Renovation for Worship | New London, WI

Emanuel Lutheran’s 100 year old worship building desired a fresh upgrade for a new century of celebration of Word and Sacrament. The congregation envisioned replacing their primary liturgical symbols with a new Altar, Ambo, and Font.  A Triptych with interchangeable themed panels replaces the former high altar and statue. Pews are removed allowing for a combination of pews and chair seating. Interior finishes are updated with improved lighting and audio-visual. 

The project accommodates a new pipe organ and music spaces. The balcony is reconfigured for a new organ and for flexibility of the choir and instruments. The sloped floor in front of the Chancel was leveled to provide flexible space for both music and performance.

The project also provides interior upgrades to the Gathering area, Fellowship Hall, Restrooms, Youth Program areas and Meeting Rooms. The building systems are updated providing air conditioning for the entire building.
