Chapel Of The Holy Cross

Sedona, Arizona

The Church of the Rock is the Chapel of the Holy Cross in Sedona.
Built on two pinnacled spur rocks approximately 250 feet high, on a so-called Vortex spot.
It sits in a thousand foot red rock wall representing the solid Rock of Peter in the Bible.
The New York native Margueritte Bruswig Staude came up with the idea in 1934, the chapel was completed in 1956.
