Church in the Forest
History :
Church in the Forest opened its doors as a community chapel on September 13, 1987. It is located in the award winning Erdman Chapel at Robert Louis Stevenson School in Pebble Beach. This chapel, designed by John Lyon Reid, is noted for it soaring ceilings, giant wooden pillars and lattice covered windows. A splendid glass wall behind the altar reveals a living tapestry of birds, trees and sky.
The Church was conceived by Joseph Wandke, President of the Stevenson School. The founding minister was L. Lamont Wiltsee, Episcopal Priest; assisted by Dr. Paul Woudenberg, a Methodist minister; and Clifford "Coach" Wilson, both Chaplains at Stevenson School. They combined the traditions of several denominations to create a beautiful worship service with particular attention to thoughtful and inspiring services and great music.
