Description

There are places in nature where the bounty of God’s creation shines with such radiance that a humble heart is moved to express its gratitude in prayer. And in some of those natural sanctuaries, humankind has seen fit to provide the worshiper with a chapel where we can satisfy our need to pray.

Morning sunrise graces us with a radiant metaphor for faith, that no matter how dark the night, the day will dawn renewing the Lord’s tender mercies and rewarding the hopes of the faithful. The dappling sunlight shines upon the still lake, as the swans gracefully float, and as a sweet melody of a psalm seems to rise up, to be joined by the gentle murmur of the brook as it flows past the stone house of worship.

Inspired by a Thomas Kinkade original sketch, Willow Wood Chapel by Thomas Kinkade Studios evokes all the timeless elements he loved to reflect in his paintings.
