Chapel
Elvis dreamed of having a "place of meditation" at the Elvis Presley Birthplace Park. Before his death, he shared that dream with friend Janelle McComb who envisioned adding a chapel to the Park. The fans made that dream a reality with their generous donations.
The chapel was designed by Johnson & McCarty Architects, a Tupelo firm, and was dedicated in 1979. Laukhuff Studios in Memphis designed the stained glass windows specifically for the Elvis Presley Chapel, and the pews were purchased with funds provided by Elvis Presley Fan Clubs. The pulpit, where Elvis' bible rests, is the original pulpit from the First Assembly of God Church which donated it to the chapel.
The chapel is a popular attraction and offers a time for mediation and a venue for weddings and special services.
