Resurrection Window

A new stained glass window in memory of former church treasurer and Sunday School teacher, Pat Fry, was dedicated on 8 December. Designed by artist Andrew Taylor, the window brings together ancient Christian motifs symbolic of resurrection, which also are also representative of Pat’s family.

The scene depicts a peacock lifting its head as it rises from sleep; while a cockerel crows, proclaiming the new day; and larks’ bird-song welcomes God’s gift of new beginnings and the ongoing cycle of life and renewal, as seen throughout the window in the transformative life cycle of butterflies.
