DEDICATION SERVICE FOR THE BISHOP KING EDWARD CHAPEL

FEBRUARY 2013

The Bishop King Edward Chapel at Ripon College, Cuddesdon is now complete. The theological college celebrated the opening of its new chapel with a service of dedication attended by the Bishops of Oxford, Gloucester and Dorchester. The services were followed by a dinner and presentation ceremony for those involved in the project.

The Sisters of Begbroke, who are resident on the college campus and who have funded the project, expressed their delight at the finished chapel, ‘We knew that what was needed was not just a building but a work of art which would touch the spirit. We are thrilled that this is what Niall McLaughlin has delivered.’
