The west transept windows show
three panels which illustrate, The Word and Sacraments”. These are the means
which God uses to continue to deliver His grace to people today, Just as water
mains below the road delivers water to each household, so God’s spoken, read,
and proclaimed word continues to deliver the Good News of sin forgive to the
individual hearts of people. The Word is illustrated as Jesus visits the home
of Mary and Martha. While Martha prepares to serve Jesus, Mary sits and listens
to His Word, the “One Thing Needful”.
The east clerestory window above
Christ, the Victor, shows the shows a cross, a crown and palm branches. Through
the cross we reach the crown.” Be thou faithful unto death and I will give you
the crown of life.” Revelation 2:10 . The palm branch denotes triumph and
victory.
The east clerestory window above
Christ, the Victor, shows the shows an anchor. “If Christ be not raised your
faith is in vain; you are yet in your sin,” Paul writes to the Corinthians.
However, because He was raised we have confidence in His salvation. “Which hope
we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and steadfast.” Hebrews 6:19
