St. Luke’s Meridian opens chapel

St. Luke’s Meridian has opened a new chapel, south of the hospital’s main entrance.

The chapel was built using money raised over the past four years from St. Luke’s staff, community members and philanthropic organizations, a news release from St. Luke’s said.

Among the donors are Norco, its employees and the Kissler Family Foundation led by Norco CEO Jim Kissler. The Downtown Boise St. Luke’s hospital has a Kissler Family Chapel.

The Meridian hospital had been using the chapel’s space for patients care, while providing spiritual services outside of the formal chapel setting.
