Connections and Community

First Christian Church in Clinton, OK, contacted Paragon 360 in the fall of 2020 to begin renovating portions of their aging campus. Ron Eden, the pastor of Anthony Christian Church in Anthony, KS, introduced the church to Paragon. Ron had previously served on staff in Clinton and had just completed his own renovation with Paragon. Members of Paragon’s design team met with the elders of First Christian Church and worked through a redesign of their existing worship center and lobby space geared towards creating a warmer, more welcoming experience for worshippers and guests.

A Multi-Team Effort

Paragon 360, Paragon Fabrication, and Xperience Construction teamed up to provide a complete turn-key renovation for First Christian Church in Clinton, OK. While Paragon Fabrication was busy building the aesthetic elements for the platform and the theming elements for the lobby, the Xperience crew was on site preparing the space. They modified the platform, removed the pews, and replaced the finishes in the worship center and lobby. This high level of coordination allowed the Paragon 360 team to be fully prepared when they arrived to complete the installation.

The Importance of Video and Lighting

Paragon 360 supplied First Christian Church with two new projectors and screens and new LED platform lighting. They wanted to ensure that the video presentation was bright enough for the space, showed vivid colors, and integrated seamlessly with the architectural elements in the space.

The new LED platform lighting was installed to support live-streamed and in-person services. It was essential to FCC Clinton to improve the lighting in both service types to create the best worship experience possible for their congregation, and Paragon 360 made it happen.
