Chapel of Awareness was not closed



A Chapel Guardian follower sent in a tip about an interesting passage on Reverend Eric Berg's Website about the Chapel of Awareness' status from 2006 to 2010.

He states in part: "Although I was not a part of Chapel from June 2006 to 2010 while working in Washington State ..... After Chapel reopened in Spring/2010 and after Donald crossed over in September/2010, I contributed on the teaching staff and clergy ....."

Chapel was not closed at any time during this period; it's a leading statement that could be easily interpreted that Chapel of Awareness was closed from 2006 to 2010. The statement is inaccurate. As has already been covered on this blog, the chapel board of directors (during the Friends of Chapel lawsuit against the Chapel) held limited services downstairs and put other functions on hold in early 2010 until the resolution of the Friends lawsuit.

Any claim that this blog is wrong on this point can be countered by this: During the Chapel's time of limited services in early 2010, Friends of Chapel members were witnessed on several occasions staging drive-by checks and standing outside the building during the limited services, during the time Eric Berg claims that the Chapel was "closed". Why would the Friends of Chapel stage such drive-bys and stand-bys of services if no one was there and the church was closed?

Eric Berg, either innocently or on purpose, is inaccurate in his claim that the Chapel of Awareness was closed in the fashion that he states it.
