Weddings & Other Services
Weddings
Chapel of the Good Shepherd, on the grounds of the Chautauqua Institution, is a summer chapel of the Episcopal Diocese of Western New York.
The chapel’s structure is a charming Victorian “country chapel” which seats approximately 70 persons. There is a lavatory but no dressing room (so wedding parties must arrive “ready to go”), and heat is minimal (a space heater). An elevator on the Park Ave. side makes the building fully accessible. Weddings are scheduled off-season or with exception and a small wedding party during the summer assembly season.
Contact the Rev. Luke Fodor for more information.
Baptisms
The vicar is available to answer questions should family be interested in Holy Baptism. Baptisms are scheduled either within the context of the Sunday 9:00 Eucharist Service or with exception a private service at a schedule convenient with all parties involved. Contact the Rev. Luke Fodor to discuss options.
Memorial Services
Memorial services may be arranged upon occasion, when it is appropriate that the Chautauqua community be included in celebrating a Christian life and commending the deceased to God. Burial Rites of the Episcopal Church are followed. Please contact the Rev. Luke Fodor to discuss options.
