Dedicated on August 19, 2001
Each window has three round etchings encircled in
red, with a connecting brown cross. The different colored pieces
of glass surrounding the windows, represent all the people no matter
which race or creed, make up the Body of Christ. The three
etchings per window represents the Trinity (Father, Son and Holy
Spirit.) The twelve different colored stones symbolize the Twelve
Tribes of Israel of the Old Testament, and the Twelve Apostles of the
New Testament. The red encircling each etching represents the
Blood of Jesus. The brown cross connecting the three etchings
represents Jesus dying on the cross for you.
The three etchings connected by the cross
constitutes the "key" (Jesus) to the Kingdom. Jesus said to Peter
"You are Rock and on this rock I will build my church, and the jaws of
death shall not prevail against it. I will entrust to you the keys
of the Kingdom of Heaven." (Matthew 16:18-19)
The five windows on the north side of the Church
depict the fifteen decades of the rosary three etchings per window.
The first five etchings are the Joyful Mysteries, the next five etchings
are the Sorrowful Mysteries, and the last five are the Glorious
Mysteries. On the south side of the Church the first three windows
depict the Universal Church and the last two windows depict the Local
Church.
