Lovely chapel

My mom and I attended church this morning at the Air Force Academy Cadet Chapel. It is a very unique building. I did not initially like the design the first time I saw a picture of it, but it has grown on me. I especially like the view of it head on:



I love the inside of the chapel. It has lovely ladders of stained glass in many different colors.



The organ in the choir loft is majestic. Unfortunately, because we attended the contemporary service, we didn't get to hear this organ played (or a choir singing).



My favorite part of the design of the chapel is the fact that it draws the eyes (and, hopefully, the inward focus) upward toward heaven.
