Chapel Painting

The Stars instill a sense of awe and wonder and symbolize heaven. To walk into a space that transports and elevates our thoughts to something greater is significant in the sacred space held within the chapel. When we have had the privilege of looking up at a clear night sky, it is difficult not to contemplate heaven, God, and especially feel united with Mary, the mother of God, in her littleness and her humility in knowing just how small she was in this world, and through that pondering the grandeur of God and how much greater he is than us. 

The symbols of the Sanctuary wall are symbolic of the Holy Family and God our Father. 

The Crown is representative of many things. It represents the reward awaiting in us each heaven. Jesus is the king of heaven and earth, and Mary, the mother of God, is the Queen of Heaven! 

The Trinity symbol is symbolic of God our heavenly Father, God, the son, that came to us as a man through Jesus, and the “Holy Spirit that dwells in each one of us” (1 Corinthians 3:16)

The Fleur-De-Lis, literally means flower of the lily in French. It is representative of Saint Joseph the Earthly father of Jesus. He is often depicted with white lily flowers for his purity. The Fleur-de-Lis also represents the trinity. 

I had the pleasure of restoring this beautiful antique Baptismal Font. I customized the statue to be harmonious with all the colors found in the Chapel.  

Custom Stenciling around the arches. The Sacred Heart of Jesus with flames and rays symbolize His infinite love and mercy for each one of us. The Hearts going around are like an embrace of God’s love to each one of us, which He is always doing. “God is love. This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him.  This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins. Dear friends, since God so loved us, we also ought to love one another. No one has ever seen God; but if we love one another, God lives in us and his love is made complete in us.” 1 John 4 8-12
