A simple 30-minute Zoom sanctuary to breathe, be human, and feel a little more connected.
No camera required. No pressure to speak. Just come as you are.
What is Open Chapel?
BETWEEN Open Chapel is a simple, live, 30-minute gathering on Zoom, offered a few times each month, designed to feel like a small chapel you can step into wherever you are. It’s a place of refuge and presence — a room where nothing needs to be fixed, proven, or performed. Open Chapel is hosted by Matt Mattson or another BETWEEN co-creator, and it holds whether only the host arrives or twenty-five people show up. The size doesn’t change the spirit. The doors are open either way.
This is not a class, a sermon, or a meeting you have to participate in. It’s a gentle, shared pause — shaped by breath, short readings, silence, and optional sacred conversation. People from many belief backgrounds are welcome, and no one is asked to explain or defend what they believe. You are free to listen quietly, to speak if you feel moved, or simply to rest in the space. Open Chapel exists to remind us that even on a screen, the space between us can still be holy.
