WELCOMING AND BLESSING Our church is now enhanced by a series of 45 stained glass windows – an enormous contribution of color and imagery. These 60 windows form one of the largest bodies of original artwork installed in a public space in our region – all designed specifically for our church’s name, shape, and position in the natural environment. Artist Helen McLean of Wexford (Ireland) and Barbara Derix of Derix Glasstudios (Taunusstein, Germany) were at the dedication of the windows on Sunday, Sept.19th. See a photo gallery of them being installed here. See photos of Helen McLean and Barbara Derix, plus our architects who helped design our new church when they joined us at our Windows Dedication 9/19 on this special page.
