Current use

This Episcopal chapel is open primarily during the summer months when the Chautauqua Institution holds its annual session. During that time the Holy Eucharist is celebrated during weekday mornings and two services are held on Sunday.

The chapel is also used during the summer season by the Chautauqua Roman Catholic Community for weekday Mass while Sunday Masses are held in the Hall of Christ.[2]
