Praised be Jesus Christ, 

A couple of weeks ago we had a nice 9" snowfall. We really needed the moisture. The day after the storm the sky cleared and we had some really nice days so I went out and took a few pictures of the exterior

and a few inside the chapel.

Next time I'll try to get a few photos of the chapel at night with the lights. Hope you enjoy them. 

Pax Domini sit semper vobiscum,
