People flock to Sedona, Arizona from all over the world to watch the sun rise, and watch the sun set, and watch the sun reflect off the region's famed red rocks. It has become a center for mysticism and new age prophets. In the midst of all this new faith, one of the world's oldest faiths has literally carved out its own niche. The Chapel of the Holy Cross is a Catholic chapel belonging to the Parish of Saint John Vianney and the Roman Catholic Diocese of Phoenix. It was built directly into a butte and offers a spectacular view of the valley 200 feet below. Designed by Marguerite Brunswig Staude, a student of Frank Lloyd Wright, the church is easily identifiable by its most prominent feature -- a giant cross that seems to support the structure as it juts out from the rock.
