Determining Needs, Developing Solutions, and Setting the Course of Action

"We should make plans... counting on God to direct us."
- I Chronicles 17:2

Ministry Focused Planning

With over 100 years of ministry experience and having worked with over 1,200 Churches in successfully planning what to build, how much to build, and when to build it, Myler's Church Growth Facility Consultants are experts at translating your ministry goals and dreams into practical building solutions…for the present and the future.

Stewardship Focused Planning

Building new church facilities that will serve as a ministry tool in reaching the unchurched and unsaved should be the objective for every church. However, if the new facility creates financial troubles for the church and/or congregation and hampers other ministry programs, tragic consequences will follow.

Our experienced church facility growth professionals help plan the right type and amount of space (size, scope and budget) to continue church growth. It is a Balancing Act to expand a facility and keep it within a budget that the congregation can safely afford.

A building program is very time consuming which increases demands upon the ministerial and leadership of the church. Myler will work hard at conserving this invaluable time so that your time can be spent on vital ministries and programs of the church.

"This is to commend the entire Myler team for the outstanding pre-construction planning services you've provided the Allen Temple building project. Your impressive national track record of church planning, design and construction, combined with skilled people and your excellent support system have been invaluable in helping us to more quickly evaluate a number of options for our project."

"As chairperson of Western Heights Baptist Church planning and building committee, it is my pleasure to recommend Myler. Without their unique planning process, our church would have never taken the first serious step toward new construction."

"We have long had a sense of direction for what we believed God wanted us to do…and even had some ideas concerning how to do it, but we were totally without the expertise needed to take a first step. To whom could we turn for guidance…and how to interface planners and architects? We quickly learned about a planning process and a firm that provided answers to our many questions, and would reassure our congregation that we were on secure ground. That firm was Myler. Many thanks to you."

"Our committees had been planning for over a year. Although I had my doubts that Myler could do anything to help, it was only a short time after they became involved that things began to happen. Our Planning Committee worked closely with the Myler people and not only agreed on a long-range written master plan and its proper phasing, but got the plan approved by our governing body in short order."
