Our Lord's Ministry to Children, North Wall

 

Given in memory of Frank Templeton Barr, rector of this parish in the late 1940’s and early 1950’s. Window installed in 1959. Center panel brings to mind our Lord’s words. “Suffer the little children to come to me and forbid them not, for such is the Kingdom of Heaven.” The right panel contains a traditional figure of a stylized daisy the symbol of purity. The left panel has seven tongues of fire symbolizing the renewing power of the Holy Spirit. This is encased in the figure of the nine-pointed star, each point containing an initial letter of one of the nine gifts of the Spirit in Galatians, Chapter 5: (Love, Joy, Peace, Long-suffering, Gentleness, Goodness, Faith, Meekness and Temperance.)
