Faith Chapel


This is one of the stained glass windows inside Faith Chapel! "Adoration of the Christ Child" was designed by Maitland Armstrong and his daughter Helen. It was installed inside the chapel in 1921. Representing the birth of Jesus Christ, you will also find the three stages of his life within the mural.The first stage or wise man represents the miracles that Jesus performed here on Earth. The second represents the persecution and mockery of Jesus by the Roman soldiers. Finally, the last wise man represents the death and resurrection of Jesus. Notice the cloak on the first, the Roman attire on the second, and the crown of thorns in the hands of the third. This is truly an amazing piece of art!!
