Hushed footsteps on marble floor, soft murmurs among the wooden pews, dim light reflecting a simple space.  Morning service at the Monastery of the Society of Saint John the Evangelist (a monastic community of the Episcopal Church) can set the tone for the day, and the chapel is beautifully accessible.  Street parking along Memorial Drive, at least at 7:30 am on a Saturday morning, was not a problem.  Here’s the worship schedule.  The chapel is open all day, and the monks lead five prayer services daily, including late-night Compline.

All are welcome.  It’s worth a visit, if you are so inclined.
