Community Bible Church
San Antonio, Texas
Community Bible Church partnered with Gensler and collaborated with the central campus master planners, Alamo Architects, to develop design guidelines to realize their vision to create an uplifting experience across all its locations. With the guidelines in place, Gensler began the dramatic central campus transformation. Underutilized spaces were revitalized into welcoming places that promote spiritual growth and healing in comfortable settings that feel like family. Prioritizing spaces for building CBC’s community, the updated Bookstore was relocated to a more visible and prominent spot. The Coffee Shop’s redesign supports the church’s outreach programs in a space for connection, conversation, and community. A publicly accessible counseling center extends CBC’s mission of providing an open door and safe spaces for people from all backgrounds and abilities. The renovation radiates comfort and a feeling of home, reinforcing their “Community” Bible Church identity.
