Wow, that’s an attractive little chapel. I love mitred doors, and this one is particularly beautiful with the mitred arches above. I haven’t seen anything quite like that before.

Oh wow – that’s exquisite! Love all the glass and love the way it lets the beautiful, natural setting outdoors seem to join inside.
