The chapel is in poor structural condition and it is remarkable that it still stands. A man called Drifter inhabits the upper level. On the ground floor there is a podium, some supplies and a few beds.
The top level, where Drifter is, can be accessed with a bit of effort.
There is a skeleton of a man dead behind a pew that he appeared to be using as cover, as well as 2 ammunition cans and a combat shotgun next to him.
There are also 2 skeletons outside of the church which could have been the men that the gunman killed.
There is no need to climb up into the rafters to search the drifter, the Lone Wanderer can dismember him and search the pieces or use an explosive such as a frag grenade to knock him down.

The Reservist's Rifle and Oasis Coordinates are of interest, especially the rifle for long-range Deathclaw take-downs.
