Rob and Dana Loeb appreciated the Mass conducted in the chapel at Mercy Health — St. Anne Hospital. But they also couldn’t help wondering if there was something they could do to see the physical space match the beauty of the service.

“It is always nice wherever you have Mass.” Rob says. “The presence of Christ is the most important thing. But we also wanted to help make it a warm, welcoming chapel.”

That thought set in motion a chapel renovation supported by a group of donors. The chapel is a small and intimate room. The Loebs’ gift helped provide new furnishings, carpeting, lighting, paint and artwork. It even relocated two stained-glass windows that weren’t previously in direct view of the cross.

“We felt it would be nice if the space expressed the beautiful intent of the Mass,” Rob says. “We wanted our gift to give comfort to those in need.”
