A 3,803 square foot renovation of the nave added new seating for 470 more people, chapel with 50 seats, men’s and women’s public restrooms, sacristy, ushers/bride room, narthex, cry room and two confessionals. Flooring and two walls were finished with Jerusalem limestone replicating the "Wailing Wall". Also included were HVAC infrastructures upgrades, new flooring throughout nave, major acoustics/sound system improvements and a parking lot expansion to add 256 spaces.
