JHW Architects was called in to study and explore the options of a severely leaking roof and deflection of the main roof beams constructed some eight years before. The final solution was to remove the existing concrete tile roof, add steel joints over the existing structure to conceal sagging decking between the beams, and finally add a structural standing seam metal roof which could span between the new metal joints. The project restored the Church's pride in their Sanctuary - and for the first time, they do not worry when it rains.

Buoyed by the success of the Sanctuary repair, the congregation turned to the expansion of their on-site school. Daryl Hawkins worked with the Building Committee to design a new, two story building to house over two hundred children for their successful school, and provided facilities for Sunday School and Adult Bible study. For the first time, Pastor and Staff offices will be in one place, under the new roof of the Church Classroom Building! Opening ceremonies were celebrated in August 2000!
