Construction Begins April 13
During a recent staff informational meeting, Ron Urice, Executive Director of Operations and Special Projects, outlined some of the construction timeline and changes that will be coming soon to Immanuel.
Jack Bays, Inc. (General Contractor) will begin moving equipment and materials to designated areas on the IBC property beginning April 13. Parking outside the Backlick Road Entrance will be reserved for equipment and that area will be fenced off. The Glass Breezeway Entrance will be closed and converted to a Construction Entrance only. During remodeling of the B Wing (Backlick side of Immanuel), entrance to Immanuel Christian School will temporarily be through Entrance 4 (South Parking Lot).

Access between Immanuel Christian School and the church will be through the C Wing hallway that leads past the Shop (Room C117) to the Gym. Senior High students worship at 9:30am in the Gym and VENTURE young adults ministry worship at 11am. Those who have to pass through the Gym to access either the Worship Center or the children’s classrooms or nursery in the C Wing are asked to pass through the Gym quietly during these worship services. Volunteers will be stationed in the corridors to provide information and directions. With parking affected, Immanuel attenders are asked to park at Phillips School and ride the shuttles. Families with small children are directed to park in the South Lot to easily drop off and pick up their children.
See the map above for affected areas. We will provide information, changes, and photos of the construction as they become available. Thanks for your patience as we enter this exciting and challenging time of ministry!
