The altar window!


Do uring the short time I was in the church, I returned to this window several times placed above the altar. I found an integration of the Biblical symbols that touched me.

Any symbol is more than a piece of art. There is a deeper meaning than what appears on the surface. The vine, light, praying hands and the cross are teternal symbols to those on a faith journey!

The symbols are both external and internal. 

When they figure in our imagination and comprehension, the symbols move to the depth of our being and create movements of gratitude, devotion, belonging , mission, etc!
