Constructed in 1948, Knox’s sanctuary has long been recognized by as an inviting and beautiful space for weddings and memorials.

- At this time, the sanctuary seats up to 250 people.
- The sanctuary has a traditional, center-aisle layout with blue carpet, good lighting, and flexibility for different altar configurations.
- There is a balcony with several rows of pews in it, overlooking the sanctuary.
