The charming and historic UUCL chapel is available for rentals, weddings and commitment ceremonies of up to 77 guests. Built in 1890, the chapel is nestled in trees off Gleedsville Road in beautiful western Loudoun County.

While there is amplification, you are not likely to need it. The AME congregation that built the chapel did it with acoustics in mind. Local folk performers have praised the chapel’s natural wood walls and ceiling as a perfect place to lift their voices.

If you are interested in renting UUCL for your event, please review and our Rental Policy and Rental Contract, and then fill out our Rental Request Form to get started. The church administrator will get in touch with you to follow up on your request.
