A New Opportunity for Prayer at the Cathedral of St. Philip
A Vision for a Good Faith Chapelby Dean Sam Candler
I ask you now to consider a new vision: a prayer chapel. I ask you to consider an expanded opportunity for prayer and contemplation, worship and education, invitation and mission, on our campus. It would be a new chapel, but not a chapel designed in our (now) traditional, rectangular way. It would be a rounder holy space, in octagonal form, welcoming us to common prayer that would develop our community in an expansive way.

From theSteering Committee
We love the Cathedral of St. Philip. Coming from various backgrounds and with different histories here, we have seen the Cathedral parish change over time. Some of us have watched it grow from an intimate, shingled structure with the even cozier Mikell Chapel to the magnificent Nave in place today. Others of us joined more recently, in the time since the last capital campaign in the early 2000s, and look forward to doing our part to strengthen the Cathedral further.

The fences are down, temporary walls have been removed, and it looks like a chapel! From the rich blue carpet with a labyrinth design inset to the gorgeous landscaping and hardscaping to the stunning light from the oculus and windows, the chapel has come together so beautifully. We look forward to the quiet and contemplative sacred space that the chapel will provide on a daily basis for prayer, contemplation, and worship.
