The Shirkey Company Incorporated

“My professional involvement with The Shirkey Company extends back to 1979. We are presently involved in final design decisions and fund raising for the completion of our relocation. We anticipate building a 1500 seat auditorium, office complex and educational facilities in the very near future. By this time we no longer consider calling other firms for proposals knowing that The Shirkey Company has always met our needs both of understanding our desires and knowing how to bring them from concept to completion.”

–Dr. Richard S. Powers, Senior Pastor
Grace Baptist Church

“The Shirkey Company has been engaged for our Millennium 2000 Master Plan Project which culminates in a 4,500 seat Sanctuary project totaling 219,344 square feet. We would highly recommend anyone considering a church building project to consider their services. We have found them to be very practical in their approach to our church's needs and very professional in their ability to carry out those assignments and accomplish our goals.”

“It has been my pleasure to work with you and your staff on two major remodeling projects. In our relationship, I have appreciated the total package that your firm offers from the initial planning through the designing and construction phases to an evaluation wrap-up. Our staff looks forward to more renovation and construction in the future and will no doubt use your services.”

–Jeffrey E. Bullock, Minister of Administration
First Christian Church

“The Shirkey Company was our designer, architect and construction manager. From our first meeting with Mr. Dan Shirkey, we began to click on what was needed and how we could remodel our present facility. Our two million dollar project included a 1,000 seat Worship Center and the remodeling/upgrading of our present facility. The cost of our project was kept in line because of their oversight. All through this project we had a good relationship with The Shirkey Company. We would be happy to show our building to anyone wanting to see the work of The Shirkey Company.”

–Kenneth Baldwin, Senior Minister
Northwest Avenue Church of Christ

“Several years ago Hartville Mennonite Church was involved in a building project, in which the original architect's plans came in considerably over budget. At this time, we contacted The Shirkey Company, who specializes in Church Designs and Construction Management. They were able to solve our budget problem by redesigning the project, bringing it within our budget. The project was completed successfully. The Shirkey Company was committed to our project's needs and did an excellent job. We would definitely recommend their services.”

–Howard Miller, Jr., Building Committee
Hartville Mennonite Church


	“Now that our construction and renovation project is completed, I want to express to you my sincere thanks for your vision and innovation in turning our somewhat land-locked facility into a larger and more beautiful Worship Center. Our congregation is thrilled with the new facilities, and the Lord is blessing us with growth and a wider scope of progams and opportunities. Rarely do I take people through our church that they do not comment on the beauty and efficiency of the entire plant. For that we are grateful to you and your company as well as the Lord for leading us to you.” –Walt Sheffield, Presiding Elder North Olmsted Evangelical Friends Church


	“They created a beautiful building, which fit the landscape of the area. It was built on the side of a hill, which demanded a special design to fit the various elevations. It is a very inviting building, with a beautiful sanctuary, very functional, and handicap accessible. First, all the people I worked with from the company, I felt, had excellent relational skills with a very strong Christian commitment. I was impressed with their faith in the midst of typical conflicts, which occur in any construction project. If I were to do another building project I would use the Construction Management as modeled by the Shirkey company." –Rev. Kim L. Anderson, D.S. The United Methodist Church Ohio Valley District
