Wayfarers Chapel is a ministry of the Swedenborgian Church of North America, based in Rancho Palos Verdes, California. It provides worship services and rites such as memorials, baptisms, and weddings, and it welcomes people of all faiths and backgrounds. The sanctuary, designed by Lloyd Wright and built with glass, stone, and wood, sits in a redwood grove and is designated as a National Historic Landmark. The 3.5 acres of grounds include landscaped gardens, arbors, a reflection pool, a colonnade, a rose garden, and a hillside stream, reflecting a view of spiritual life integrated with nature.

In 2024 the chapel was disassembled and stored after a landslide forced its closure, with plans to rebuild at a prospective new site. In 2025 the organization announced plans to reconstruct the sanctuary in its original glass design at a Rancho Palos Verdes site with seating for about 100 guests and opened a new location there, signaling progress in its relocation and rebuilding efforts.
