#4100 Railroad Chapel Cars

Instructor: Jamie Foster

Chapel Cars once ran on the rails of the old west, bringing spirituality and morality to an untamed world. This is a unique opportunity to learn about this relatively unknown piece of railroad and church history from the late 1800s and early 1900s. Sunday services, Sunday Schools, weddings, funerals, and everything in between were held on chapel cars as they moved on the railroad from town to town.

Jaime Foster: BA in Geology from Carleton College in Northfield, Minnesota. Jamie has been a primary and secondary school teacher and has developed and taught several church-related courses.“God Is Good” (from Genesis and Exodus); “Saint Nicholas Tells His Story;” “In His Own Hand” (a look at the four times God wrote in His own hand); “Is God Expanding, Too?” (a study on cosmology and creation); “Out of the Ashes,” (stories and characteristics of resurrections); and “This Train is Bound for Glory,” (the chapel car experience).
