Project narrative from CCBG’s website:
The Prince of Peace Catholic Church, opened for Easter of 1999. It includes an entire Parish for a retirement community in Sun City West, AZ that is experiencing tremendous growth. The church wanted a modern mission in the desert while encompassing an “old world feel”. A fan-shaped seating pattern in the sanctuary contains 1,400 seats and a daily Mass Chapel. All parts of the campus open onto a large courtyard which is centrally located. The courtyard is surrounded by a textural masonry arcade. Interior furnishings and windows were designed by Rambusch Studios.
