Stained Glass Window Restoration

We have been concerned for some time about the condition of the stain glass windows. Fortunately, we have received a generous donation to make their restoration possible. On about September 7 & 8th the second window on the north side (the Baptism Window) will be the first to be removed and taken to the restoration studio in Virginia. In its place will be a white sheet of plywood. It will take several months to be returned. Then, the two windows at the altar (St. James and St. Paul) will both be taken at the same time, after Christmas. Again, several months before their return. The remaining windows will be restored in place at the church. This includes the clear windows and the transom windows over the doors. This project was approved by the Vestry and is expected to take about a year. Questions may be addressed to Chair of the Buildings and Grounds Committee, Jim Cheston - jamescheston@yahoo.com.
