The Chapel is open to people of all faiths and is available for individual faith groups to worship together under the direction of their respective religious leaders.  Prayer and worship services will be conducted on a regular basis to honor the Heroes who have fallen, to pray for our Nation, our President, public officials and religious leaders.  The theme of the Chapel is One Nation Under God.  Appropriate ceremonies on national holidays will celebrate the religious diversity of America and the unity of the American people.

The church was used for services for seventy years.
