            “Chartres Cathedral was once just an idea in someone's mind, a

community built it and inspired humanity for hundreds of years. Today

we are called to create a new sacred space for future generations to know

that humans alive today built more than just banks, malls and missile

silos. Helping build the permanent Chapel of Sacred Mirrors is a gift we

can give ourselves and the future that will benefit the spiritual lives of

countless people.(www.CoSM.org)”
