The vaults of those chapels are arris ones. The side chapels, constructed in the XVI century, communicate with each other through semicircle arch passages. The nave in question is considerably high, and it's covered with a ribbed vault. Once inside one can realise that it's a single nave church. It has an octagonal shape and it's on the left hand side of the building looking at its entrance from across the street.
LOOK UP LODGE CHAPEL WINDOWS
The four stained glass windows are also very aesthetic as well as the carving of a flame pointed arch ending with a fleuron. The whole in that portal is of a great beauty thus revealing its elaborate manufacture. There is also in that part of the façade some sculptural decoration whose more interesting segment is perhaps the pediment reproducing a scene of St. It's a several point arch shaped portal gradually decreasing in size, the outerest one being profusely decorated with foliage whose highest point consists in a fleuron depicting Christ on the Cross. The entrance to the temple consists in a monumental portal flanked by two pillars each one of them also ending with a pinnacle. That gothic style façade consists of three well defined sections separated from one another by elegant semidetached columns topped by two beautiful pinnacles, one for each. In spite of that limitation some nice and artistic elements on the main façade can be observed. The street where the church lies is rather narrow, what prevents one from having a good perspective over the church. In the thirties of the nineteenth century, on the occasion of a legally arranged confiscation of the Church assets, the convent was torn down and just the church remained this turned up into St. Afterwards and during the seventeenth century they enlarged the outbuildings and built around the convent.
After longer than one century the trinitarians set up a community there. We invite you to look at the floorplans below for a better idea of what we're planning to build in place of the existing Roger Williams Lodge.That church was initially a temple dating back to the end of the fourteenth century dedicated to the Very Saint Trinity. The construction of a new building will not only revive its traditional role of bringing guests together under one roof, but also support and sustain Camp Judson's year-round ministry to youth, adults and families. Roger Williams Lodge has long served as a central gathering place for campers. We need to raise $4 million in capital campaign gifts to pay for construction. That's why we're asking for your help to replace this aging facility with a new 20,600 square foot, two-story building. But today, this beloved building can no longer keep up with the size and scope of camps and retreats.
For nearly 70 years, Roger Williams Lodge has provided the backdrop to stories of faith, friendship and fun at Camp Judson. In 1955, Camp Judson's chapel and meeting spaces were constructed and named in honor of Roger Williams, the founder of the Baptist movement in America. It's about reaching more kids with the good news of Jesus Christ. This campaign isn't merely fundraising for a new building.
