Friday Tiffany Window Blogging


This is the Tiffany window in the "parlor" of the First Presbyterian Church, Orange, Texas. It depicts Christ as a child helping Joseph in his workshop. Mary is spinning in the background.

Notice that the planks of wood being carried by the Christ Child have formed a cross in his hands. The doves at the top of the window probably symbolize the Holy Spirit.

As the first groups of people move back to the devastated Gulf Coast and start to rebuild their communities and their lives, this seemed like a good picture to post.

El Jefe and I will be gone this weekend, so no blogging until Monday.

I like the fact that it is portraying something normal being done.
