$7OO Million Boom in Church Building

(Continued from Page 26) tive director of the Bureau of Church Building of the National Council of Churches.

"Traditionally, and rightfully, the church edifice was a beautiful monumental building, designed for its day and uses," Atkinson said. "ft reflected in its fabric and form the available skills of hand craftsmen, the materials and methods of construction then available, and the less intricate space requirements of the church of yesterday.

"The architectural styles which characterize these buildings, if truthfully followed, tend to impose restrictions on arrangement of windows and floor areas, heating and airconditioning, and even the movement of people through the working areas.

"The architect of today is required not only to produce a beautiful building for worship but also to incorporate spaces for an increasing variety of functions by which the modern church seeks to minister effectively to human needs at all age levels. Today the program is carefully planned and the building is put around the program.

"The present trend is toward an architecture which expresses the ageless living faith of mankind with materials and methods of construction of the present day. Contemporary efforts indicate a search for a design which is true to the functional requirements of the modern church, permits greater flexibility and livability in the use of interior space, is clean and honest in its lines, less imitative of the past and more courageous in giving living, spiritual expression to the work and worship of the church."
