An Intimate Worship Place

 

The Daily Mass Chapel has been set aside for the weekday Eucharist. The concept is to have a small, intimate area for such worship. The chapel features the tabernacle and a "Christ the King" crucifix. Very often, our Lord is featured as the Suffering Savior. However, following a Byzantine tradition, the Lord is sometime portrayed as a triumphant figure - our King. The figure and the cross on which it is mounted was made in Italy of Lindenwood.

The chapel also features small "Stations of the Cross." These fourteen small panels, made by the Slabbinck Studios in Belgium, focus on the journey of Christ from His condemnation by Pontius Pilate through the crucifixion to His burial. The devotion of the Stations of the Cross goes back to the early middle Ages.
