st. jude catholic church

church | benton, louisiana

this new 20 acre campus for the st. jude catholic church was designed to meet the needs of a fast growing faith community.  the new sanctuary space is surrounded with traditional church characteristics, with modern clean lines. the entrance into the sanctuary and altar are located on an east-west axis, which mimics classical catholic church planning. to bring people closer to the altar and the tabernacle, the pews were fabricated in a half round shape, with the center of the circle being the altar table. the new campus also has a 6,500 sf family life center, 7 classrooms, nursery and administration area.

project size:
800 seats - 48,000 sf​
