Christ, the Victor; The East Aisle Window #3

The east aisle window #3, shows the resurrection of our Lord.  This window is treated symbolically showing the risen Savior with the banner of victory.  Mary and a Roman Centurion are worshipping Him. As our victorious Savior we too gather to worship Him.  He is worthy of our praise and thanksgiving because of the price He willingly paid for our forgiveness and freedom.

The Clerestory Window Above Elijah


The west clerestory above aisle window #3, shows a Hebrew Scroll. As Elijah was a prophet and used scrolls as a record for their words, these scrolls give witness to the courage, fear and trials experienced by the prophets as they called God’s children to trust in the God who had brought them out of Egypt and lead them into the Promised Land. Today, we have these words in a book. If you see a symbol in the sanctuary you’d like to know more about e-mail Pastor John or drop him a note.

The West Aisle Window #3

The west aisle window #3, shows the prophet Elijah being taken up in a whirlwind. His ascension is symbolic of our Lord’s Ascension when His task on earth was finished. Read about all the ministry of Elijah as he spoke the Word of God to wicked King Ahab in 1 Kings 17:1-1 Kings 2:11. Witness the courage and the fear in the heart of a man who speaks the truth under some very challenging days in the lives of God’s children.. If you see a symbol in the sanctuary you’d like to know more about e-mail Pastor John or drop him a note.
