A Spiritual Sanctuary. A Community Gathering Place.
Join us for Sunday Services starting May 31st!
Join us for our first Sunday service of the summer on May 31st at 10am as we welcome our summer pastor, the Rev. Tim Boeve, back to the Chapel and Olympic Valley. Tim will be leading services each Sunday from May 31st to through the end of August.
Tim is semi-retired minister who has enjoyed a long career as a pastor, an executive director in the nonprofit sector, and guest services manager and chaplain at the Sonoma Raceway in Northern California, until moving to Mexico in 2018. Boeve, who served as guest pastor at OVC last June, offers an open, personable style and non-dogmatic approach in his messages and pastoral care. He is most keenly interested in evolving his own spiritual growth and nurturing that impulse in others. Though rooted in the Christian faith, the ecumenically minded minister is open to the truth that emanates from all the historic faith traditions, as well as the more recent Eastern-inspired spirituality and practices arising from the talks and writings of various non-dual and/or Buddhist teachers such as Jack Kornfield, Gangaji, Adyashanti, Rupert Spira, Eckhart Tolle, Pema Chödrön, Father Richard Rohr, and the like.
Tim will be available for spiritual counseling, pastoral care, and to conduct weddings or celebrations of life during the months of June, July and August. He can be reached at 707-337-9915 or tboeve53@gmail.com.

We have a special treat coming up on June 14th at 4pm when Tuck Wilson’s sister will be in town. She has offered to share her uplifting story with us about her long career from the ballet to Broadway.
Lee wrote two books about her experience learning alongside ballet icons like Rudolf Nureyev and Margot Fonteyn, and working with great performers and choreographers like Agnes de Mille, Alvin Ailey, and Bernadette Peters.
Lee looks forward to a lively discussion with the audience and will be happy to sign copies of her books and mingle over refreshments.

Olympic Valley Chapel’s award-winning design was the first of its kind. The building quickly became known as the “potato chip” church because of its resemblance to a Pringles potato chip. This is the story behind its unusual design, why it was built, and the connection with the Olympic Valley community today - Click Here
