PATTY AND BO PILGRIM CHAPEL The Patty and Bo Pilgrim Chapel was created to honor God. Entering the Pilgrim Chapel sanctuary, one sees a stained glass image of Jesus praying in the Garden of Gethsemane the night that He was betrayed. Over His shoulder stands the Holy City of Jerusalem, waiting to receive its coming King. At the back of the sanctuary is a beautiful piece of art reminiscent of the Rose Stained Glass Window in the Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris. The design within each petal depicts one of the twelve disciples, along with symbols of their ministry or martyrdom. At the center of the glass is the cross, draped with a scarlet cloth, representing the foundation of our faith. The Word of God is on display on the ceiling beams in the sanctuary, reminding visitors of a few of the passages that are especially meaningful to DBU. The cross takes its prominent position—centered at the front—symbolizing the supreme sacrifice that Christ made to redeem us from our sins.
