Date of Window: 1999

Subject/Title of Window: Choir of Angels

Brief Description of Subject: Praising God with musical instrument were chosen for the East windows in Church as a prelude to the wall where the new pipe organ will be installed. The instruments chosen are the Celtic harp, the bourdon (drum/tambourines) the flute and lyre, instruments traditionally mentioned in the scriptures and psalms. The colors used in these windows coordinate with the other stained glass windows in the church by the same artist “The Creation” and “The Resurrection”. The Chapel windows were designed to speak of the gifts of various women throughout the history of the Church.

Type of Glass and Technique: Opalescent Glass

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
