THE BEAUTIFUL CHAPEL in PICHELIN

Many people are not aware that there is a beautiful catholic chapel in Pichelin, as it is located from the road. The idea for the chapel was proposed by Monsignor William John Lewis.  I had the honour to design it and carefully choose the materials for the building. The late Elliot Rolle (+2010) was the contractor. It was completed in 1991 and blessed on December 1, 1991 by the late Bishop Arnold Boghaert (+1993), while the late Fr. Jerome Moody(+2006)  was parish priest of Grandbay. The chapel feast is the Epihany
