It is a place where people can go and think their best thoughts. The chapel was designed by Maurice Jennings + Walter Jennings Architects, PLLC of Fayetteville Arkansas. Maurice, a partner of the late E. Fay Jones, worked with Jones for 25 years. The stone in the arches and walls comes from local quarries in Northwest Arkansas as well as Eastern Oklahoma. The chapel is 3,000 square feet and the he

ight at the ridge is 43 feet above the ground. The chapel can accommodate up to 135 people. The stone of the chapel speaks to the chapel’s permanence and strength. The wood, protected by the slate roof, shows depth and life through its grain. One first enters the Narthex of the chapel and continues into the Nave. The Narthex provides compression while the Nave opens up and allows for focused views to the south and open views to the periphery. During the day the chapel is illuminated by natural light, requiring very little artificial light. The geometry of the chapel plays on the meditation of a circle. The circle is a special geometry that can symbolize many things, as in a ring for marriage or the circle of life. Various meditations and iterations of the circle can be seen throughout the chapel. Reoccurring themes of the numbers 3 and 12 are also used, in reference to the holy trinity and the apostles.
