Stained Glass Windows for New Church
Click here to view the stained glass windows.
These windows are currently in Holy Cross Church in Indianapolis. That parish has been closed and merged into St. Philip Neri Parish. We have a reached an agreement with them to purchase the windows and place them in our new church building. The cost of these windows is not included in the budget for the new church building and so some time later, parishioners will have an opportunity to donate toward these windows. The "In Memory portion" of the window could possibly be replaced at that time.
