History
The Chapel was built by lay minister Arthur A. Carey. Carey founded the Chapel as a “Chapel of the New Jerusalem,” where he preached at will. New Church Minister Reverend Frank Sewell led the first Summer Sunday Service in July 1903, a now much-anticipated tradition that brings families back to the Seacoast each summer. By 1910, Little Harbor Chapel was exclusively hosting “undenominational services” and using some non-Swedenborgian ministers.
Arthur A. Carey wrote about the concept of Undenominational Religious Services.
