Overview

The original church, built in 1870, followed the theme of the New England style of meeting house, with a belfry and steeple. The double front doors were capped by a curved "fan" light and flanked on each side by arched windows. The new Chapel, modern in every way, has completely captured the original's classic exterior design. Inside, the Chapel features an exquisite narthex and sanctuary. A decorative wall towers behind the raised altar area, providing an inviting backdrop complemented by rich oak floors and pews. Antique stained-glass windows in the two front windows provide needed privacy in the first floor restroom and in the stairwell to the basement level. The windows were rescued from a historic Meridian Township church located in the Village of Haslett. Outdoor weddings can also be held at the Village in lovely Central Park, Okemos, either at the Gazebo in the center of the park or in front of the Village Chapel.
