Jury Citation
The judicious use of simple geometry and light to express the spiritual content of the building immediately captivates the viewer. Well-executed separation of areas, the succinct use of sizes, shapes and positions evoke, on the facade, the internal function of the building. All the elements contribute to a sense of spiritual uplift, befitting the character of a church. The building projects a dignified and humble presence in the cityscape.
