About
About the Chapel of Light
The Chapel of Light is a virtual sacred space for prayer. We created this project to offer people all over the world the opportunity to light a candle, request a prayer, and join Sunday service streams at any time: from home, a hospital room, or anywhere far from a church.
This is not a replacement for physical church prayer. It is a digital extension for anyone who finds it difficult to attend a local church. The tradition of lighting candles and submitting prayer intentions has existed for centuries; we simply make it accessible through the internet.
Mission
Our Mission
To make a prayer community accessible 24/7 to believers wherever they are. Especially for those facing loss, distance from loved ones, or illness.
Every candle in our 3D chapel is visible to all visitors. Your prayer is never alone: candles from other believers burn alongside yours, part of a shared prayer in a digital sanctuary.
How it works
How the Chapel Works
- Candles: 78 slots in the 3D chapel. You choose a burn time (12, 24, or 48 hours), then enter a name and prayer intention.
- Payment: Via secure online card payment. Payments are processed automatically and usually take a minute or two.
- Sunday Services: Live streams are hosted on Sundays. Names from prayer orders are read aloud by the priest during the service.
- Spiritual Library: Tabbed pages containing Psalms, comfort verses, hope stories, prayers before exams, and a daily blessing.
Funds
Where the Funds Go
Offerings for candles and prayers cover:
- Technical infrastructure: Hosting, domain name, and payment processing fees.
- Ministry support: Assisting the clergy, musical recordings for services, and streaming equipment.
- Platform development: Adding new features, user support, and expanding the library.
Public financial reports are shared on our social channels quarterly.
