The Church of the Risen Lord is a Protestant church located at the University of the Philippines, Diliman, Quezon City. It arose about 50 years ago through a Protestant student group named the Christian Youth Movement (CYM).
The CRL is an equally modern building that concentrates its aesthetic elements on its structure rather than decoration. A cone-shaped parabola that stands on concrete rings on the front and back, and angled piers at the side, the CRL also features a concrete shell roof, this time curved like a piece of folded paper. The chapel’s architect chose a parabola to define the external configuration of the structure as a reminder of the futility of man’s aspirations towards the attainment of a state of perfection outside of the Christian faith.
The chapel’s front is a glass wall, allowing light to flood into the interior.
As one enters the chapel, the cantilever and the choir loft shields one from the reality of human limitations and attention is shifted to the floor plan defined by its walls. This plan defines a free and unobstructed flow towards the chapel—a promise that there is salvation from the imperfections of the parabolic world and of the reward of man’s communion with his Creator. The tapering of the chapel’s width toward the chancel defines an arrow pointing to the one true direction that we must take in accepting Christ as one’s personal savior. Beyond a certain point, the floor widens again to signify the vastness of God’s Kingdom.
The piers on the side form a rhythmic pattern of diagonals that emphasize the thrust of the structure heavenward, and forward.
Interpretations have likened the chapel to a loaf of bread, a saddle, and a covered wagon.
The Bread of Life symbolizes nourishment to the spiritual being of whoever feeds on it; entry into the chapel signifies our commitment to God and the desire to partake of God’s Bread of Life.
The chapel as a saddle injects the concept of a pioneering spirit and implies the ingredients that make up a true pioneer.
The same pioneering spirit is recognized in the interpretation of the chapel’s shape as a covered wagon, expanding involvement to a family. The wheels of the wagon turn and set the covered wagon into a dynamic whole.
