Saint Brendan the Navigator Catholic Church
Shallotte, NC
The sanctuary expansion project increases the existing seating from 550 to 1,300 and provides a much larger area for the altar sanctuary and Eucharistic Chapel. The brick tower and cross can be seen from afar while driving on Highway 17. The addition includes an enlarged gathering area, sacristies, restrooms, and quiet room. A stained hardwood screen mediates between the worship space and the Eucharistic Chapel. 300 parking spaces were added along with three detention ponds to meet state water quality requirements.
