We write with the good news of last night’s unanimous approval of the All Saints Master Plan by the Pasadena City Council – which came after three hours of public testimony and councilmember deliberation. It was truly an inspiration to listen to the great cloud of witnesses speaking in support of All Saints’ vision of a new center for mission and outreach in Pasadena.
The Master Plan we submitted last night has been refined, strengthened and improved by constructive and creative feedback received from the wider Pasadena community during its long and comprehensive approval process of hearings, studies and community consultations.
The unanimous City Council support for our Master Plan demonstrates the power of authentic community to work to bridge differences through cooperation and compromise. We will continue to live out our longtime commitment to “Make Glad the City” as we design, build and commission these buildings for our ongoing mission of turning the human race into the human family.
We are excited to move into the design and implementation phase as the next step in realizing our long-held dream to increase All Saints’ capacity for service to Pasadena and to bring world class architecture to the Civic Center.
