Hurricane Michael Recovery

Projected for Completion: March 2020

The Fusion campus of Lynn Haven UMC previously served as a community fitness center as well as a space for high-energy worship and youth ministry programs. Hurricane Michael destroyed the building as well as LHUMC's main campus on Transmitter Road. The Fusion campus is being repaired and will serve as the primary worship and ministry space for the church beginning in March 2020 (projected). Repairs to the building are being completed by GAC Contractors, with architecture designs created and led by Daniel Cook, Architect.

Fusion Renovation - Floor Plan and Exterior Rendering

Proposed floor plan and exterior remodel from Architect Dan Cook

Those who remember the back half of the Fusion Fitness Center remember this space as an indoor soccer field and basketball/volleyball courts. In this picture, you'll see a floor to ceiling wall being erected. The space behind the wall will be left unfinished for now. In front of the wall on the right side will be a youth/fellowship room, meeting rooms of varying sizes, an indoor play area, and bunk rooms for visiting volunteer teams.

Those who remember the back half of the Fusion Fitness Center remember this space as an indoor soccer field while the other side had basketball/volleyball courts. In this picture, you'll see a floor to ceiling wall being erected. The space behind the wall will be left unfinished for now. In front of the wall on the right side will be a youth/fellowship room. Note that one set of basketball goals have been re-positioned here. We are thankful that this will soon be a primary gathering spot for our Lynn Haven UMC youth members and a host of other groups.

Six months ago we found the gym at our Fusion Fitness Center campus soaked after Hurricane Michael took the roof. Today we see a sunny outlook and progress. In a few months this space will be our hub for worship and ministry activities. We have an attitude of gratitude as we rebuild our facilities because as we all know, “the church is more than a building!” We are proud to be part of rebuilding the Panhandle for God’s glory.
