The Windows of the Soul (1)

A treasure to behold

Holy Name of Jesus' stained glass windows are beautiful. The changing position of the sun, throughout the day, reveals their richness of color and gentleness. The church windows tell a story without the need for words. They profess the meaningfulness of life's joy and sorrow that is common in our own lives.  Faith, Hope and Charity is found in twenty-four windows of the Saints high up near the ceiling : St Albert the Great, St Rose of Lima, St Anthony, St. Mary Magdalene and both St Bridget and St Patrick among many more.
There are over fifty beautiful stained glass windows deserving of care.


These windows above the altar need to be structurally sound. They are in danger of being dislodged by nature's elements









One of the most beautiful windows needs expert restoration work
