The Stained Glass of Elmwood

"Church"

In the left-hand light stands Peter. In the right-hand light stands Paul with a sword in his right hand, symbolic of his struggle against the forces of evil, of his advice to Timothy to conduct himself as a good soldier, and of his later words to the same young man recalling his own personal fight. In his left hand he holds a book in the form most familiar to us. Properly in his time it would have been an armful of scrolls, indicative of his own powerful letters which compose so large a part of the New Testament. This window is dedicated in memory of Dr. & Mrs. F. W. Gilmour, 1966, donated by the congregation.
