Chapel Camp 2023

Our 16th Year of Chapel Camp

“Tell all the truth but tell it slant.” — Emily Dickinson

In the summer of 2023, we gathered after services in Lindsey Chapel to engage in a variety of activities, which reflect a deep truth about the Emmanuel community: the dazzling breadth and depth of our passions and interests. Like Emily Dickinson, we endeavored to “Tell all the truth but tell it slant” in stories and songs.
