Southport Heights Christian Church Building Porject

Southport Heights Christian Church
Indianapolis, Indiana

The contemporary Worship Center addition to the Southport Heights Church was designed to accommodate not only all the worship services of the growing congregation, but their extensive music and drama ministries as well. Seating capacity is just over 700 on the main floor, and a little over 300 in the balcony. The choir risers are fully removable to clear the stage for dramatic productions, and an overhead catwalk houses computer controlled theatrical lighting.

After completion of the new Worship Center, the church's old sanctuary was remodeled--including the installation of a new second floor--to make room for several new classrooms for Southport's growing Sunday School program and Day Care Ministry.
