The Clerestory Windows

The six main windows on each side of the sanctuary have corresponding emblems high above in the “clerestory”. The West side depicts Old Testament events and the East side New Testament. In the clerestory window above the West window showing Adam and Eve driven out of the Garden of Eden by tan angel with a fiery sword, we see a world encircled by a serpent to show the all-embracing power of sin. The fall brought sin into all of creation. If you see a symbol in the sanctuary you’d like to know more about e-mail Pastor John or drop him a note.
