St. Joseph’s Chapel

Renovation of a chapel on the grounds of Archbishop Rummel High School, New Orleans, LA.

Partnering with the school’s chaplain and campus minister, we were able to create a full sanctuary set for this high school chapel. St. Joseph’s Chapel is a sanctuary of peace and revival for the students where they can come and encounter Jesus in prayer. Students participate in Mass and Eucharistic Adoration surrounded by art that leads them to the realities they are experiencing. This project was an honor to complete.

Our Lady of Grace Chapel

Creation of a chapel within an elementary school building at St. Peter Catholic School, Covington, LA.

Even with a beautiful perpetual adoration chapel and church located nearby, this elementary school desired a place where students and faculty can go to pray and be in the presence of the Lord within the very school building. Not only is this a deep place of prayer, it is also a place of education. Teachers are able to use design elements as catechetical tools when explaining the Faith to their students. It is a vibrant, central place for the spiritual life of the campus. We were honored to work with this amazing school.
