Welcome!
Our 2023 Season has comes to a close. Thank you to all who attended our services both live and remotely! Please see a special note from our Board President, Jake Miller.
Passing of Joan Eschert
It is with great sadness that we share with our community that Joan Eschert, a long-standing, active member of the Captiva Chapel by the Sea, has passed away. From Reverend John Cedarleaf, "Joan was a special person, full of life, witty and wise and funny. She was a regular not only at worship but at our monthly porch parties. What a dear she was. Rest in peace and rise in glory!” Joan will be missed by all who knew her. View her obituary.

Welcome, Reverend Dortch!
Our new pastor, beginning in November 2023 and concluding in April of 2026, is the Rev. Dr. Doug Dortch. Doug has been a local church minister for 43 years, serving most recently in the suburban Birmingham, Alabama area and in downtown Tallahassee, Florida. More than two decades of service to those congregations was preceded by ministry in other churches in Kentucky and Alabama. Doug received three theological degrees from the Southern Baptist Seminary in Louisville, KY, the M.Div., Th.M., and Ph.D. degrees. His Ph.D. degree is in Christian Preaching and Philosophy.

All Are Welcome
Captiva Chapel by the Sea is where all are welcome regardless of their religious beliefs. We are an interdenominational ministry serving South West Florida's winter season and are recognized in the National Register of Historic Places.
Captiva Chapel By The Sea nurtures a strong community within and we also are committed to supporting mission outreach in the broader community.
There is no membership roster at our church, yet a motivated and enthusiastic group of volunteers manage to get things done "in God's time."
Historically, Captiva Chapel By The Sea has relied solely on support provided entirely by Sunday plate collections and voluntary gifts. With your support, we continue that tradition today.
