The new chapel at SpiriTrust Lutheran®, The Village at Luther Ridge was dedicated during a worship service on Tuesday, April 11. The Rev. James Dunlop, Bishop of the Lower Susquehanna Synod of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, joined the Rev. Amy Wagner, chaplain at The Village at Luther Ridge, in presiding over the service.
Second Lutheran Church of Chambersburg donated money to construct the chapel and purchase the beautiful stained glass doors that welcome worshippers. This gift of gratitude honors the Rev. Robert McEllroy and his wife, Patricia, for their service to the congregation.
Thank you to everyone who helped bring to life this new worship space, which will help enrich the spiritual lives of residents, families and team members for years to come!
