We are not currently fundraising for side aisle windows, which will initially be clear glass.
We are pleased to work again with J. Wippell & Co. on the design of our new altar window. Founded in 1789, Wippell's is based in England and designed the windows in our current Nave and Narthex. The inspiration for this window comes from an ancient hymn we recite in Morning Prayer called the Te Deum. The hymn is set around the throne of God, who is praised by apostles, prophets, martyrs, and the whole host of heaven.
Drawing from these categories, the figures surrounding Christ on the throne are Peter and Paul (Apostles); Moses, Elijah, and John the Baptist (Prophets); Perpetua and Felicity (third century Roman martyrs); the Virgin Mary, St. David of Wales, and St. Non (St. David’s mother).
The donor(s) who contribute to this window will be given the opportunity to select the two remaining saints in the window.
