Decommissioning Service - Chapel of Reconciliation

Event details

The Chapel of Reconciliation, located on the Uniting College and Adelaide College of Divinity campus in Brooklyn Park, has been a staple of college life since its dedication in 1997.

As plans for the new Brooklyn Park refurbishment grow closer, work is now beginning to decommission the Chapel as a place of worship. A decommissioning service will be held at the Chapel on Tuesday 7 March at 12.30pm, followed by a barbecue lunch at 1.15pm. The service will be led by Rev Dr Vicky Balabanski and Rev Christy Capper.

The Chapel of Reconciliation was first dedicated on 9 November 1997 by the heads of the original three colleges that came together on the Adelaide College of Divinity campus. A student from each college presented a symbol of their worship at this service of dedication – a carved crucifix from St Barnabas College, a carved Uniting Church emblem from Parkin-Wesley College, and a lectern Bible from St Francis Xavier Seminary.

The decommissioning service will recognise the importance of the Chapel in the life of many students and staff members over the past decade.

Please indicate your intention to attend the service or share in the barbecue by sending an RSVP email to Sue Arthur (email below).
