Built in 1957, Chapel of the Good Shepherd is a classic English European-style chapel that stands near the center of NAS Oceana at the corner of Hornet Avenue and D Street. Standing amid a grove of towering oak trees, the NAS Oceana Chapel is one of the oldest and most historic aviation chapels to display the Wings of Gold. The complex includes the 486-seat main sanctuary and the smaller 25-seat Blessed Sacrament Chapel. Just after morning colors, the sacred music from the chapel bells harmonize with the jet noise as a reminder of what we defend and echo throughout the day, keeping Sailors and Marines anchored in their spiritual heritage.
