220 Emerald Church Hosting Preparation 2026

Objective

Prepare the 220 Emerald property to host church events by aligning with the Elders on support needs and executing facility improvements for:

  • Main house church room
  • Barn gathering area

Current Priorities

  • Meet with Elders to confirm vision, expected attendance, and support model.
  • Define scope and budget for AC in:
    • Main house church room
    • Barn
  • Build phased plan for barn upgrades:
    • Carpet/flooring requirements
    • Potential window additions
    • Bathroom feasibility (plumbing, permits, cost)

Workstreams

1) Elder Alignment & Ministry Support

  • Confirm desired launch timeline for hosting events.
  • Clarify church support (financial, volunteer labor, materials, technical).
  • Agree on ministry use-cases (prayer nights, classes, youth, worship, meals).
  • Identify point person(s) for recurring coordination.

2) AC Planning & Execution

  • Request at least 23 quotes for main house room AC options.
  • Request at least 23 quotes for barn AC options.
  • Evaluate load sizing, insulation impact, and electrical readiness.
  • Select vendor and schedule install windows.

3) Barn Buildout Discovery

  • Carpet: material options, durability, and cleanability.
  • Windows: daylight/ventilation goals + placement options.
  • Bathrooms: number needed, plumbing route, septic/sewer implications, permit path.
  • Produce rough order-of-magnitude budget and implementation phases.

Suggested Phases

  • Phase 1 (Immediate): Elder alignment + AC scoping + rough budget.
  • Phase 2 (Short Term): AC installation in priority spaces.
  • Phase 3 (Mid Term): Barn interior improvements (carpet/windows).
  • Phase 4 (Longer Term): Bathroom project execution.

Key Open Questions

  • Target date for first church event at 220 Emerald?
  • Typical and max attendance?
  • Available church budget or reimbursement model?
  • Permit constraints for barn modifications and bathrooms?

Next Action

  • Send Elder outreach email and request planning meeting.
