By a strange turn of events, this Tory Church became the First Unitarian Church in the United States in 1785. Although it is still considered Unitarian, it retains many of its Episcopal symbols such as the cross, communion table, Apostle’s Creed and Ten Commandments on the altar. This Chapel is open daily to the public from 9 a. m. to 4 p. m.
