The beautiful white chapel that is the focal point at the camp, was constructed and designed by the Franciscans in 1983, whom lived and served on the campus. It was originally blessed and dedicated by Archbishop John L. May, Archbishop of Saint Louis (1980-1994).
In 1995, several years after the Franciscans were no longer on the property, there was a fire in the chapel. The chapel was renovated, but was no longer used for Catholic Mass. In 2004, countless volunteer hours led by our own Bob McCartney, were given to ready the chapel for the Blessing & Dedication.
Through the blessings of Cardinal Rigali and our present Archbishop of Saint Louis, Most Reverend Raymond Burke, the "Catholic Identity" of the chapel has been restored. The Archbishop generously gave RockyVine whatever we needed to make this a reality!!!
In June of 2004, volunteers, guests, and friends gathered with Archbishop Raymond Burke as he Blessed & Dedicated our Blessed Sacrament Chapel.
The Chapel can seat about 110 people. There is a quality sound system in this prayerful and sacred space of the camp. Also the sacristy contains everything needed for Mass & Eucharistic Adoration.
