Starting Sunday, October 26th at 11:45 am and then on the Fourth Sunday of each month through Sunday, May 24 of 2026, you are invited to a 1-hour long class led by Pastor Greg Horn studying the ten beautiful stained glass "aisle windows" that adorn the east and west walls of PCUM's sanctuary.
Among the traits that make this congregation a special place are the quality and beauty of its stained glass windows. For reasons primarily associated with our Reformed Protestant heritage, Presbyterians don't typically "do" stained glass well. PCUM's uniquely beautiful windows--the Chancel windows purchased and installed in 1913 and the aisle-windows commissioned and installed in 1919--are rare exceptions. Each aisle-window tells a biblical story, and each window's story is interpreted and presented in artistic and theological ways that reflect this congregation's origins and its rich 118 year-old history, while at the same time literally illuminating what God has to say to us at this 21st century moment.
Each 1-hour long, discussion-based class will take place in the sanctuary and include a close study of a particular window, the scriptural scene it depicts, and the choices the artists and the church's founders made in presenting it. We'll also discuss aspects of the craft of stained glass-making; how to read and use your biblical knowledge more productively; the time and reasons PCUM came to be; and what messages these extraordinary windows, visual manifestations of God's Word, have for us today.
See you on Sunday, October 26th from 11:45 am to 12:45 pm! Please contact Pastor Greg Horn ( [email protected] ) with questions AND/or to request childcare.
