Parking Impacts
With the construction of our new ministry facilities, we are adapting to significant parking changes due to construction zones, trucks, and building materials on campus.
- Parking limitations are temporary; when construction is complete, full parking capacity will be restored.
- Carpooling is encouraged.
- For worshipers with mobility challenges, we hope to prioritize use of the 106 remaining campus parking spaces
- Passenger drop-off is available at both our west and east lobby entrances.
- Extra parking is available at Edward Jones, the Village Bar, and at the north-end Schnuck plaza lot (read more above).
