		Chapels are nonsectarian in as much as St. Martin cared for the beggar as a person in need, rather than as a religious subject.
		Chapels are built alongside or within hospitals and hospices in the same spirit of compassion and service to human suffering that St..
		Chapels do not represent the institution’s main activity, but they signify and provide a vital and valuable spiritual resource in helping sick, injure and neglected people recover from, adapt to, and find meaningful their physical affliction.

	Wayfarers Chapel
		Wayfarers Chapel, a most unusual church made almost entirely of glass, is sponsored by the Swedenborgian Church and serves as a national memorial to Emanuel Swedenborg.
		Wayfarers Chapel began as a dream in the mind of Elizabeth Schellenberg, a member of the Swedenborgian Church who lived on the Palos Verdes Peninsula in the late 1920s.
		Today, what you are looking at is not a glass church but a "tree chapel." Chapel architect Lloyd Wright, son of the renowned American architectural pioneer Frank Lloyd Wright, had been inspired by the cathedral-like majesty of the redwood trees in northern California.

		All are held beneath the towering redwood beams of what is nicknamed the "glass chapel," one that has a view that extends to the Pacific waters and to Catalina Island.

		Extremely popular as a destination wedding venue, the chapel hosts couples from across the country (as well as many couples who travel from Japan with their guests to wed at the unique site.) Weddings are scheduled every two hours on even hours, on into the evening hours.

		She dreamed of a little chapel on a hillside over the Pacific where wayfarers could stop to rest, meditate and give thanks for the beauty and wonder of creation.

	Thorncrown Chapel - Fay Jones - Great Buildings Online
		Such is Thorncrown Chapel by Fay Jones in rural Arkansas, an architecture which complements and, in creating a special sense of place, 'almost' completes the site.
		The rhythmic quality of the structure set against the calm magnitude of nature creates a sense of sacred space: The music of the fleeting the forest is a layering of vertical trunks and raking branches so is the building a canopy of layered and meshlike space.
		Thorncrown Chapel succeeds on yet another level, that of the symbolic: Using massing reminiscent of rural covered bridges, the image of shelter on the road of life is in keeping with the ecclesiastical understanding of nature.
