Very often people ask, "Father, when will we put a window in up there so I don't have to look at a roof any more." Well, we're on our way to a new window! After reviewing proposed drawings from a variety of companies and individuals, the parish pastoral council felt that this design was best for the location of our window - and would fit in with the rest of the beautiful windows in our church. We'd also like to hear your input about this window. If you hit "comment" down below, you can leave your comments for us about our selection. We'd love to hear from you. There is still some work to do with the artist before we have a final design, and I'll be working with her in the coming months to get our window in soon. Pictures of some of the current windows are also posted here so that you can see how they match.
The last photos are, obviously, OLD photos of the original window which were sent to me by a parishioner.

I like the window, especially with the Sacred Heart in the center.
ReplyDeleteThe window complements the existing windows, contains meaniningful symbols and is aesthetically pleasing. The Lison family votes "yes".
ReplyDeleteJoe Keane here...Well, of course I like it. I spent the first 21 years of my life in the Sacred Heart Parish in Schenectady, NY.
ReplyDeleteI think this window will fit in perfectly! It appears that it will still let a decent amount of natural light it and looks great, too!
ReplyDeleteSome older parishioners MAY remember the original window - it had a "bust" of the Sacred Heart in the center. While it's not possible to have the bust, in choosing the Sacred Heart image, it was a way to keep a part of the old tradition. The original window was also a similar design with pedals, so again, the new window mirrors that original one.
