Third Sunday - January 2013

 All Saints Episcopal Chapel - Albemarle County, Virginia 

This small wooden chapel with stone chimney is in the small rural community of Stoney Point. All Saints is a "mission" church that was completed in 1929. The cornerstone was laid in 1926 as a memorial to a three year old girl who was killed by a falling stone.


The building is in a peaceful setting surrounded by trees.


The back of the building is adorned only by the shadows of the oak trees that stand over the chapel.

  1. Lovely chapel and story. The images work very well in Black and White. You've captured the true essence of this church and the surroundings. Nicely done!
