70. Mission Outside the Box. Architect Innovator Series

What if the church had no buildings? What would we build first to serve the mission that Jesus gave us? 

At Door Of Hope church in Launceston, part of the building is leased to a fitness gym. It also has childcare, conference, allied health, dance studio, mechanics training, social housing and much more.
