Project Updates
January 2024
Our second window should be installed soon. If you’d like to aid in the fabrication of the two remaining windows, check the weekly email for available sign up dates at the artist studio. There’s still opportunity to donate in honor of a loved one and to fulfill your earlier pledges. Blue envelopes are in the narthex. Thank you! |

We are happy to announce the first window has been completed and installed. The second window will be installed the beginning of January 2024. Work continues on windows three and four, watch your email for the schedule of work dates at the artist’s studio. Joyfully, we report that the project is fully funded; however, contributions may still be made in honor of loved ones. The initial seed money (which as an unrestricted gift) will simply be reallocated to other needs of the church as funds are received beyond the budget of this project. Please include the names being honored by your gift in the blue offering envelope. Thank you for your generosity!

May 2023
It's with joy that we announce that the Stained Glass committee has chosen the stained glass artist to design and build our new Sanctuary windows. The sketches, shown in a mock-up version above, are available to view at the church. See the slideshow below of individual window sketches.
We are happy to report sketches were finalized, glass ordered, and construction has begun. Window 1 has been completed and installed! We are looking into outside lighting to accent the intricate beauty of the glasswork.
We look forward as a church community to this visual representation of the story of Christ our King! Thanks to generous donors, we have substantial seed money to begin. A fundraising campaign is underway to fully fund the project.
As a gift of worship to our Lord, we hope to unite around this happy project. To that end, we are looking not only to joyfully fund this project through our giving, but to engage with it through small-group visits to the artist’s studio. If you have any questions about the project, please speak with Pastor Morris.

Action Points
1. Have a look - please take a few moments to view the sketches and familiarize yourself with the details of the project. Each window is a unique montage reflecting various stories within our Lord's life and ministry, with elements that run through the series of windows.
2. Pray - please pray for creative inspiration and blessings upon all hearts, hands, and minds involved. Pray for wisdom in all decisions, that we would be joyfully united in our purposes, and that the entire process, provision to performance, will be directed by God for His glory.
3. Consider - as you pray, consider how you might engage with and support this project. We are currently accepting donations - please pick up a blue envelope in the narthex. Donations may be given in honor of loved ones, but there is no hierarchy of contributions - we are in this together! To be part of assembling the windows at the artist’s studio, please contact the church office for available dates and times.
Thank you for being prayerful and open to the Lord's leading.
