"The Deena Marie Shepard Window" This is the Christmas window, depicting the angel of the Lord announcing the birth of Christ to the shepherds. The star is the guiding light of the birth of Christ and and symbolizes Christ as the light of the world and his triumph over darkness. The evergreen is the symbol of eternal life and points upwards towards god, the eternal giver. The snow represents the purity of the Virgin Mary. The pointsettia is a favored flower which adorns our homes during the Christmas season.
