St. Andrew Lutheran Church Construction Update

Five years after completing a classroom addition, Kraemer Brothers has returned to St. Andrew Lutheran Church in Middleton to support the continued growth of its congregation and Westside Christian school. Designed by ADCI, the expansion includes two new entrances and a sanctuary that will increase seating capacity by 40 percent. An atrium, located outside the sanctuary, will provide a welcoming gathering space, while adjacent rooms will add space for offices and student services. Inside the sanctuary, a circular wall introduces a distinctive architectural element to the space. Large glass windows connecting to the cry and sensory rooms will allow occupants to remain visually engaged in the service. Once the new sanctuary is complete, crews will transition to renovating the existing sanctuary, converting it into four classrooms. This transformation will allow Westside Christian School to increase enrollment up to 30 percent. Drywall installation is currently underway, with painting to follow. Flooring is scheduled to begin in March, and finishes will continue thereafter. Kraemer Brothers has carefully phased the project and utilized temporary secure entrances to ensure the safety of students, staff, and the congregation.
