Building a Future
Welcome Hub Appeal
In 2010 Our Saviour Lutheran Church will help Redeemer
to ensure that the College continues to be a place of
welcome and community. We all want a place wide
enough for our ever-growing student and family
population, as well as those involved over the last 30 years.
Our Saviour Lutheran Church, partnering with Redeemer
Lutheran College, is launching an appeal to help the College
by providing an upgrade to Redeemer Chapel. There are
special benefits for the College which are beyond present
College building capacity.
The Our Saviour plan to upgrade the Redeemer College
entry area has been named the ‘Welcome Hub’. It is
inspired as much by future opportunity as present need.
The Welcome Hub plan will extend the existing Chapel
kitchen (three times the current size), provide a toilet block
(four female, three male), build a storeroom for outdoor
furniture, and give a large covered area from the new
kitchen to the College Administration building.
The Chapel was opened 10 years ago with room to seat
the whole College at that time. Its function has grown.
It is now not only a worship place; it is the entry way to
the College grounds and the meeting place for all who
come and go, or stay for events. But the Chapel facilities
are inadequate for this. It has almost no toilet amenities,
a very limited kitchen, and inadequate shelter for
outdoor community life.
This new ‘Hub’ will effectively lift the Chapel amenities
and shelter so that several hundred can be involved at
the Chapel entrance, with food service, band space, PA,
projection screens and toilet facilities. The kitchen will suit
as a coffee shop. The sheltered areas will provide shade
and shelter for hundreds of students or others, including
lunch time activities, arrival/departure traffic, plus a
‘stop, sit and talk over coffee’ zone for parents.
We commend this project to you.
