Chapel & Grounds Are Closed
NO PUBLIC ACCESS ALLOWED ON PREMISES
Wayfarers Chapel and the surrounding grounds of the property are presently closed due to the accelerated land movement in our local area. We understand this is devastating news to all who love this sacred space and we invite your prayers for the healing of this land. We will keep the public updated as to when we might be able to reopen the grounds as they become available. We appreciate your understanding of this incredibly challenging situation for everyone.
We welcome you to join us for Sunday Worship Service at 10:15am, currently held at St Francis Episcopal Church (small sanctuary).
