The Tiny Chapel

The Tiny Chapel The Tiny Chapel is a non-denominational place of quiet reflection and contemplation located in the Kanimbla Valley, Blue Mountains Our Tiny Chapel is brick.

This little Traveller's Chapel was inspired by the numerous ones I saw by the highways when I lived in USA in the Mid-West in the late 1970's. I promised my self that, if I could, I would build one here in Australia. In Missouri and Kansas they were white wooden miniatures that folks far from home could pop in and stay a while.....be thankful, be blessed and be happy. As an Australian far from hom

e studying in St Louis, Missouri, I was one of those folk. It's a place for anyone to visit and connect with God....whoever or whatever you may believe him to be. It's a place to meditate. It's a place of peace and love. It's a place of reflection and mindfulness. Above all, it is a place of reverence in one of the most beautiful parts of New South Wales. It was built by Rob Wade, a retired builder, who, along with my husband Ross Grassick, Vicky Wilson and I, deliberated each angle, the type of material, the colours and how the final result must be. Like me, Rob had always wanted to build a church. The bricks are "common bricks" in keeping with Christianity beginnings amongst the common folk. The Oregon pine beams were lovingly restored pieces of wood Ross had in his "we might use this one day" pile! The basalt stone wall was inspired by our friend Warwick Fuller who was building a similar wall at his home, and the floor marble, which I fell in love with on one of my overseas trips, was brought in from China. The door and the front window were cleverly made by Vicky. The leadlight windows were designed and made by my artist friend Helen Bonica. Helen has carefully linked the wattle, the gum nuts and leaves and the waratah with the flora on Serendipity itself. Wattle is the Australian National flower and the waratah is the flora emblem of New South Wales. You are welcome to visit our Tiny Chapel unconditionally.
