For
more than 50 years, the Hyde Park Chapel has played an important role
in the lives of members within the UK and abroad. It is a focal point
and source of identity for church members, who are drawn from more than
110 nations. Within the inspired building, individuals have gained
testimonies of the Gospel, forged lasting relationships and enjoyed many
gatherings and social events.
In 1961 President David O McKay
dedicated the Hyde Park Chapel with approximately 1,600 members in
attendance. Quoting writer John Ruskin he stated: “When we build let us
think that we build forever. Let it not be for the present delight, nor
for present use alone; let it be such work as our descendants will thank
us for and let us think as we lay stone on stone that a time is to come
when those stones will be held sacred.”
The Chapel is located on
Exhibition Road in central London. The neighbourhood is also home to
world-famous museums and universities, and receives more than 11 million
visitors annually.
The Hyde Park Open House will take place on Saturday, 30 June 2012, beginning at 13:00, with a musical
programme to commence at 15:00. Following the programme, refreshments
will be served. All are invited to attend this historic event and are
encouraged to bring family and friends.
