Over the years the chapel has evolved touching many people, changing lives, sending forth many to other parts of the world. It was started in 1888 and celebrated it's 100th anniversary in 1988. We are now in 2012 and there is still a testimony there at 88 Arthur Avenue, Blasdell, NY, USA. It was first known as Bethany Chapel and I'm not quite sure when it was changed to Blasdell Gospel Chapel.

Raymond Max Stiefler had a heart for the Lord and along with others was very influential in early years. So we have attached the various activities and pictures to him as his descendants have benefitted from the effort.
