small Christian place of worship
A small church or a special room where Christian people pray or have services, often inside a bigger building like a school or hospital.

รูปแบบการใช้:

คำพ้องความหมาย
service (A general word for a religious ceremony; “chapel” in this sense is usually used in institutions and sounds more specific and informal there.)
คำตรงข้าม
free period (In a school context, a time with no class or required activity, contrasted with required chapel services.)
