“Well, that depends. I suppose I should say this chapel really belongs to God. But since I never get around to deciding which God in particular, I guess you could say it belongs to all of them. Now if you ever need a quiet place to sit down and ponder the Almighty, in whatever form strikes your fancy, we're always open.”— Pastor Clements
The All Faiths Chapel is an unmarked location within Diamond City in the Commonwealth in Fallout 4.
Background[]
Owned and operated by Pastor Clements since at least 2286, the chapel expresses as a non-denominational religious center for the people of Diamond City, no matter whether they hail from the Lower Fields or the Upper Stands.[1] Clements claims that everyone is welcome regardless of their beliefs, or lack thereof, and visitors are encouraged to sit and ponder the divine, regardless of the form the divine takes for them. Given the chapel's open nature, he views it as more of a "silent vigil."[2]
Winter of Atom[]
In late 2286, Clements lost control over the Chapel when it was occupied by the Children of Atom. The cult had a brief spell of popularity among the people of the Lower Fields for their vocal criticism of the Upper Stands residents. The Atomites were also supported for opposing the authority of the Minutemen, who were active in the city at that time.[Non-game 1] Following the cult's failed attack on Diamond City, they were driven out of Boston and Clements reclaimed the chapel.
Layout[]
Situated at the bottom of the staircase leading down from Diamond City's main entry, the All Faiths Chapel is a small single-room structure. It contains a pulpit around the corner from the entrance, and a pew with two Diamond City residents sitting on it.
Inhabitants[]
- Pastor Clements
- Two unnamed residents
Notes[]
- Sitting on the pew next to the two DC residents will grant the Quiet Reflection buff, which offers a temporary 5% bonus to XP gained for eight in-game hours.
- During the unmarked quest Wedding Day, if Miss Edna was convinced that love is worth the risk when first talking to her in the schoolhouse, after a few in-game days and returning to Diamond City, one can witness as Clements ordains the marriage between Mister Zwicky and Miss Edna outside the chapel.
Appearances[]
The All Faiths Chapel appears in Fallout 4 and in the Fallout: The Roleplaying Game sourcebook Winter of Atom.

- ↑ Winter of Atom p.102: "The Children of Atom are taking over the All Faiths Chapel, citing that they need a place from which they can help the locals. Pastor Clements strongly opposes their occupation of the chapel. Most Lower Field residents trust the Children of Atom and support their speaking out about the resource hoarding of the Upper Stand residents. Lower Stands locals frequently agree with the Church’s critical view of the Minutemen—who they claim are nothing more than a self-serving militia looking for a foothold in the city."
