When you think of a chapel in Utah, you often think of much larger churches. After all, in Utah there’s a church on just about every corner. But perhaps you’d like something a little different. The little Meditation Chapel at Memory Grove in Salt Lake City, Utah provides peace, quiet and a spot for reflection. Take a look at this pretty little gem!
Like so many Utah families, Mr. and Mrs. Ross Beason lost their son in World War II. They built the Meditation Chapel as a place of remembrance for their son and all other sons who gave their lives during the war.
