Studio RED Architects celebrated the dedication of the new worship space at St. John Neumann Catholic Church in Houston on November 30, 2013 after diligently working with parish leadership for nearly three years.  Studio RED Architects | Church Architecture | HoustonDaniel Cardinal DiNardo presided over the ceremony as principal Celebrant, blessing the facility and altar to be used for many years to come.  The Studio RED team along with Arch-Con Construction were joined by Daniel Cardinal DiNardo as they greeted excited parishioners at the conclusion of mass.

Pursuant to a strategic plan developed by the firm to accommodate parish growth and ministry needs, Studio RED expanded the existing worship building to accommodate nearly 1,100 seats as well as a new Narthex, new Day Chapel, new restrooms and other ministry spaces.  The project team worked closely with parish pastor Monsignor Seth Hermoso to survey parishioners and identified their priorities for meeting ministry needs.  These priorities were guiding principles for the development of a master plan and program for the renovation to the worship space.  Studio RED also integrated upgrades to liturgical provisions such as the working sacristy and full emersion baptistry to be in keeping with other parishes within the Diocese.
