A worship service will be held at the historic Old Meeting
House located at 2250 N. Geyer Road, 63131. This casual, family-friendly
service is open to the community. Refreshments follow. Signs will direct
you to parking. There are no restroom facilities at the church. For more
information about the Old Meeting House visit

The hand-hewn limestone
church was built in 1834. It sits in a bend in Geyer Road. Familiar St.
Louis names such as Geyer and McKnight are found on some of the oldest
tombstones in the churchyard cemetery, dating back to its establishment
the same year.
The three farmers who donated portions of their land
for the church and cemetery stipulated that part of the land would be
used as a burying ground for slaves. A large stone marker in the
southeast corner of the cemetery commemorates the lives of these slaves
whose graves are otherwise unmarked.

Worship in the Taizé Style is
offered in the Chancel of our Sanctuary. The service begins at 6:30pm and lasts approximately one hour. Services
are held once a
month, on the fourth Sunday of the month.
This style of worship focuses predominantly on prayer, meditation,
silence, and singing.
It provides a different kind of opportunity for nurturing your
spiritual growth in addition to other worship services at Ladue Chapel.
Guests are especially welcome.
Enjoy spending quiet time with members of our congregation in prayer
and praise of God. "Come as you are," whether you are dressed for
relaxation or are getting ready for a formal evening. But come with your
heart ready to give thanks and praise to God from whom all blessings
flow. Childcare is provided.
