Building Name: St. John Lutheran Church ELCA

City: Saginaw

Window Shape: 2 (rectangle)

Date of Window: 1958

Subject/Title of Window: Christian Women

Brief Description of Subject: This window presents the familiar scene in the Bethany Home, where Mary sits at Jesus’s feet, listening to His teaching, while Martha with some impatience is busy serving. Significant are Jesus’s words on this occasion in which He emphasizes the need of listening and learning. After that the serving will have greater significance and greater joy.

The window shows a woman teaching, several women singing in a choir, and a group of women sewing on a quilt. The window is meant to recognize the contributions of Christian women to the list and welfare of the church.

The MSGC is a constantly evolving database. Not all the data that has been collected by volunteers has been sorted and entered. Not every building has been completely documented.

All images in the Index are either born-digital photographs of windows or buildings or are scans of slides, prints, or other published sources. These images have been provided by volunteers and the quality of the material varies widely.

If you have any questions, additions or corrections, or think you can provide better images and are willing to share them, please contact donald20@msu.edu
