Chapel of the Holy Cross

Nestled in the red rocks at the southern escarpment of the Colorado Plateau, the Chapel of the Holy Cross breaks the monotony of Sedonas cookie-cutter southwest style architecture. In the Summer of 2010, I spent a month with my family in Arizona. In addition to visiting Lake Havasu and the Grand Canyon, I worked with my uncle delivering one of a kind pieces of furniture. Our delivery would take us across the state, but my visit to Sedona was the most memorable. The simplicity and minimalism of both the exterior and interior were extremely profound. The large pane windows and stoic cross shuts outside interference. Its lack of gaudy ornaments and iconography leaves one at peace with their creator.
