Part 5 : What Are Our Opportunities? This series is based on the book “Making Properties Serve Mission – Rethinking the Church’s Buildings for the 21st Century” by Fred Batterton Part 5 : What Are Our Opportunities? Fred Batterton

This series will help us to reconsider the church’s buildings and what God is calling us to do.

A time or set of circumstances that makes it possible to do something Opportunity A time or set of circumstances that makes it possible to do something “So then, while we have opportunity, let us do good to all people, and especially to those who are of the household of the faith. Galatians 6: 10

Decay is normal

Preservation Decay is normal. Change is normal. Preservation (like taxidermy) is not normal but may be desirable in a few cases. Building maintenance is a responsibility. This includes finding new uses and making buildings serve today’s needs. If this can be achieved

Conservation This includes finding new uses and making buildings serve today’s needs. If this can be achieved “The process of maintaining and managing change to a heritage asset in a way that sustains and where appropriate enhances its significance” Historic England

Significance Heritage value depends on Cultural Significance: Aesthetic - attractive, distinctive, style, Historic - architecture, art, events, achievement Scientific - archeological Social - community, landmark Spiritual - belief system, knowledge Each can be assessed High to Low These are defined in the Burra Charter (Practice note v1 Nov 2013) This includes finding new uses and making buildings serve today’s needs. If this can be achieved

Adapting Heritage churches Churches need to make their own case for change. Careful change will allow: Aesthetic - retention of the basic aesthetic in street Historic - continuous use by original owner Scientific - structural volume retained Social - retains local community identity Spiritual - long term local belief system celebrated Otherwise failure to meet 21stC needs will lead to redundancy and likely greater change. This includes finding new uses and making buildings serve today’s needs. If this can be achieved

Why change? Society has changed. People gather in different ways from when heritage churches were built. Music, visual aids, comfort expectations, lighting, sound, catering and alternative uses bring new challenges. This includes finding new uses and making buildings serve today’s needs. If this can be achieved

Location Many heritage church buildings have prominent locations in city centres with people passing by. Heritage and contemporary side-by-side makes a powerful statement about the longevity of faith and its relevance to contemporary life. Use the heritage to speak of the message - interpret the history within.

Drivers for change Flexibility of layout Welcome & hospitality Comfort expectations AV needs Sustainable multi-usage by church and others - any building used only 5% of the week will not pay its way.

New church opportunities New building on a green or brownfield site. Meet another need, eg. sports facility Adapt another building - industrial, etc Take over a redundant church building

New-build Issues Car parking land requirement & cost. Opportunity for sharing? Engaging the wider community Distinctive & sustainable - landmark? Involve an architect in selecting a site

Enabling development If you don’t need all your property for future mission, realise some value to re-invest.
