Geocache Description:

The Chapel grounds are generally open 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily. The parish family invites newcomers to visit.

In the middle of the grove, there is a glade.

And in that glade, in the shadows of centuries-old magnolia, oak, cedar and dogwood, there stands a simple brick church.

Like any working church, it is itself a monument to human passage. Within its timeworn walls, six generations of communicants have been christened, joined in matrimony and spoken over as they set sail on their final journey to judgment and glory.

Because this rich heritage is as much a physical part of the church as brick and mortar, even on the sunniest days this simple church will remain forever veiled in the mists of history.
