Community of Hope Methodist Church—Mansfield, Texas

Community of Hope Methodist Church in Mansfield, Texas, relied on Speed Fab-Crete as construction manager for the 2005 completion of a contemporary multi-purpose worship center in the first phase of a progressive master plan. With a windowless environment, the worship center below uses digital integration of sound, lighting and video to capture the praise service weekly.

With a windowless environment, the 18,300-square-foot worship center seats more than 300 on a stained concrete floor, below an exposed ceiling, and with emphasis on theater-type audio-visual capabilities.

Speed Fab-Crete was a perfect fit for Community of Hope Methodist Church. Their leaders wanted to avoid having to "educate" a "traditional religious builder" of the unique needs of a progressive congregation.
