CHOOSE THE BEST ARCHITECT
After a complete study has been made and assistance has been secured from
every source, the church will still need the services of the very best available
architect in designing and constructing the new building. The architect is the
professional adviser and should be secured after serious consideration. The
experienced man is the most desirable. The fee paid the architect should not
be considered as extra cost, but should be considered just as necessary as the
amount paid the other master workmen whose services shall be engaged. The
architect will save the average church enough money to pay for his service*
several times. These men spend a lifetime preparing for their profession and
will save you many mistakes and produce far more beautiful buildings than
could be obtained otherwise. The church building is the most outstanding
building any community will construct in a lifetime. By all means, secure the
nest available architect to prepare your construction drawings, specifications,
and to supervise the construction of the building.
