Happy Easter! Today, we present this ecclesiastical window, Christ's Blessing, which was installed in the First Presbyterian Church of Greensboro circa 1903. According to the sign, posted beside the window, "(t)he theme for this beautiful Tiffany-style window comes from the Gospel verse, 'Let the little children come unto me... for such is the kingdom of heaven.' It was sponsored by members of the Scales family in memory of their mother Effie and father Junius, who was a prominent 19th-century Greensboro attorney and state legislator." Today, the window is housed on the property of the original First Presbyterian Church which is now part of the Greensboro Historical Museum.
It's a magnificent picture in glass and gives a happy message for the day.
Happy Easter to you all.
