2019 Miscellany #4 church

Messiah Lutheran. Fairview Park Ohio. Winterich Studio. 1987. 
In their main worship space they have seven large windows that follow the liturgical year. Here is the bottom portion of their Lent window, which symbolises the Eucharist. The Pelican is Jesus who offered his Body and Blood.
I am interested in stained glass, and churches are the usual place to find it. Much contemporary glass is uninspiring, this glass, and their huge 1999 lobby glass is worth seeing.
