The windows of Catholic churches are works of sacred art that are meant to engage the viewer in a dialogue of salvation history. Our windows are rich with symbolism and rich with the narratives of the Old and New Testaments.
The window below startled me when I first saw it. During Mass I kept turning my head to glimpse it. And the more I looked at it, the more I wanted to ask those around me about its meaning. When Mass ended the church cleared out fast and I was left alone to contemplate the window in silence.
