Chapel at the Bishop's House

This morning the whole school went to the residence of Bishop Tom Ely and his wife Ann to visit the chapel inside their house.  Tom gave the group a tour of the house and its interesting historical features.  The students learned about the significance of a Bishop's crozier, why stained glass was so important in the early years of the church, and the role the Bishop in the Episcopal Community.  We also enjoyed snack on the porch looking over the lilacs in the sunny garden to Lake Champlain beyond.
