It was designed by Fort Atkinson, Wisconsin-based architect Helmut Ajango with Gene LaMuro.
Nicknamed the Spaceship Church, it is located at 1700 South Green Bay Road and was built in 1975.
[2] The church was designed to represent the crown of thorns worn by Jesus Christ during his crucifixion.
A narthex foyer is part of the complex and the church's entrance includes a stained glass wall by church member and artist Cathy Meader (who designed it in memory of her father Robert Bohm who oversaw construction of the original church building).
[1] Other nicknames for the church include St. Saucer, Spaceship Church, and Pancake Parish, and its circle in the round design centers the sanctuary on the altar and stone baptismal font behind it, "the water and the word".
