Stained Glass Window Committee

Since inquiries have been made from time to time by parishioners and others about the possibility of donating further stained glass in the church, the rector has appointed an ad hoc committee to formulate a plan for stained glass in the church to recommend to the vestry. The committee consists of Jonathan Whitney, chair, Peter DeSaix, Terry Eason, Richard Pfaff, Sidna Rizzo, and Vivian Varner. The following is the charge to the committee.

The plan should address the following questions:

• How much more stained glass would be desirable to have?

• Which windows should that include?

• In what order should they be completed?

• What would be appropriate iconography?

• What artists/studios could do the quality of work required?

• How much would a given window cost?

• What is necessary for the ongoing preservation of our stained glass?

The committee should draw on the resources it needs to complete its work, including other similar worship spaces, professional advice, consulting with staff and interested parishioners, etc. The presupposition should be that money will eventually (but over time) become available to complete the desired number of windows. The plan should be submitted by the June 2005 vestry meeting.

Send items for inclusion in future "Cross Roads."
The deadline is the first Thursday of the preceeding month.
