Stained Glass Windows

An outstanding feature of the sanctuary is the stained glass. These windows can be described as “Tiffany-esque” created in the popular Tiffany style. The glass was purchased from the Chicago Art Glass Co., a Tiffany agent.

Transfiguration Window

Showing Jesus between Moses and Elijah as the event of Matthew 17:1-8 presents the scene. The window is on the north wall of the sanctuary in the balcony and can be seen from West Main Street.

The Angel and the Empty Tomb

The window on the east balcony wall depicts the Easter scene as told in Matthew 28: 1-7. The angel is pointing to the empty tomb showing that Jesus is no longer dead, but alive. Easter lilies are in the foreground of the window and the three empty crosses are in the background.

The Guardian Angel Watching over the Child

Psalm 91:11 – “For he will command his angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways.”

Given in memory of Alice Ready Martin

Window 2

Mark 4:5-6 – “Some fell on rocky places, where it did not have much soil. It sprang up quickly, because the soil was shallow. But when the sun came up, the plants were scorched, and they withered because they had no root.”

Jesus Stands at the Door

Given in memory of Rev. Sanford Guthrie Burney and Mrs. Susan Burney
