Stained Glass Windows Tour
May 17 @ 11:30 am – 12:30 pm
After 111 years, the two great stained glass windows in our sanctuary are in serious need of restoration.
The Nativity window at the front frosts over in winter. In places, it is held together by tape. On a cold morning, you can feel the wind coming through it. The Three Wise Men window at the rear is hot to the touch on an April morning, slowly caving in under its own weight. Many of the small panes are cracking under the pressure.
From the pews, they are still beautiful. But there is nothing like standing right in front of them, running your fingers over the glass, and feeling the damage for yourself. That is the moment it becomes real.
The Window Restoration Committee invites you to do exactly that. We meet every other Sunday immediately following the service and coffee hour, and we welcome you to drop in for a behind-the-scenes tour. Touch the glass. See the cracks up close. Be part of what comes next. Our next meeting is Sunday, May 17. Brochures are available at the front desk.
We can do this together.
