A Story Unfolding in the Grace and Truth of Jesus Christ
From a storefront at Five Points to our building at Fir Hill, The Chapel’s legacy has been built on two cornerstones: grace and truth.

“And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we have seen his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth.
… For the law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through
Jesus Christ.”
