Welcome!
Welcome to the Congregation of Sell Chapel, a non-denominational church located at the Masonic Village at Elizabethtown.
Wishing to provide an appropriate place of worship at the Masonic Village, and at the same time honor the memory of her late husband, Mrs. Kate E. Sell, widow of John S. Sell, donated the funds for the chapel. Her vision became reality with the service of dedication on June 30, 1927.
The first worship service conducted in the new chapel took place on Sunday, July 3, 1927. The beauty and grandeur of the chapel is surpassed only by the comfort and spiritual well-being that is perpetuated through the various religious services offered.
Through the years, though regular religious services were conducted in the chapel, a formal congregation was not established until January 11, 2004, when the first members of the Congregation of Sell Chapel were received. The membership continues to grow, and we invite you to join us. If you choose to maintain your current church membership, you are always welcome to worship with us.
Outreach Ministry
One of the commitments of the Masonic fraternity is to lend a helping hand to individuals in need. This is a responsibility we take seriously at Sell Chapel. Your Outreach Committee has identified three areas of opportunity where each of us can help: through donating to individual response requests and Employee Assistance Fund, community-wide programs and annual special funds.
Your gifts – from the dollars in the offering plates to the checks in the mail – make it possible for Sell Chapel to respond to needs on the Masonic Village campus, in our surrounding community and throughout the world. We appreciate your interest in aiding us in our mission to reach out to those in need.
