Moving the Life-Saver Chapel

Chaplain Jay Schock – Lead Chaplain at Elkton TA Travel Center – watches as Glenn Fahnestock begins the process of removing the ramp to the chapel.

The truck stop management asked if the chapel could be moved to the other side of the building. It was parked close to the fuel island and sometimes caused a problem for the traffic flow.

Chaplain Jay is pleased with the new location. It was a bit noisy next to the fuel island. This is a much quieter spot.

The guys are now down to trim work, and as soon as the paint shop is ready, the exterior will be sandblasted and painted by Mel Weaver – then it will go to Eckert’s for lettering.
