Abstract
Chapel begins with a musical expression of longing and hope, emphasizing themes of strength and refuge in faith, as the singer seeks solace in a "strong tower" during times of darkness and despair. A scripture reading from Isaiah and Matthew highlight the comfort and blessings promised to those who mourn, setting the tone for a memorial chapel honoring Ray Fitzgerald, whose legacy is celebrated by his wife, Kristen. She reflects on Ray's life, their shared faith, and the importance of understanding different Christian traditions, particularly Catholicism, in fostering unity among believers. Kristen's journey through grief, advocacy for gastric cancer awareness, and dedication to her daughters illustrate the resilience of faith in overcoming life's challenges. The chapel serves as a reminder of the need for love and service in a broken world, as Kristen encourages the audience to embrace their roles in spreading hope and understanding across various Christian communities.
