The Churches of the South East Nassau Deanery
GRACE CHAPEL NEW STAINED GLASS WINDOWS– Just installed yesterday, the stained-glass windows are part of the original Chapel plan. Open for the past year, the Chapel has proven to be an outstanding addition to our church facilities. Used weekly, it has become a sacred place of peace and contemplation. It is also used for smaller weddings and funerals. Many thanks to the women of the Grace Thrifty Boutique efforts which raised the funds necessary to purchase the windows. (see rotating pictures above )
