A Wing and A Prayer

The Chapel is both an intimate setting for small groups and a communal space for up to 500. A set of three curved walls symbolizes the Trinity and features a T-shaped opening framing a large exterior metal cross. Light scoops at the sanctuary entrance and altar emphasize arrival into, and presence within, a space of importance. Copper-clad surfaces and contrasts of light and dark, solid and void, reflect life´s passages and experiences. An exposed steel frame draws the congregation´s eyes toward the altar, and thus toward the heavens.

Also important to the planning and design was confirming the mission of educating the total student-spiritually, intellectually, and physically-in a caring Christian family community.
