Stained Glass

It is the Lord

It is the Lord!

This window is based on John 21:5-7a, “Jesus said to them, ‘Children, do you have any fish?’ They answered him, ‘No.’ He said to them, ‘Cast the net on the right side of the boat, and you will find some.’ So they cast it, and now they were not able to haul it in, because of the quantity of fish. That disciple whom Jesus loved therefore said to Peter, ‘It is the Lord!’”

Letter from the Artist:

I saw the Stained Glass Window page.  Very nice job.  I’m not sure if you know, but, I’m the one who made and delivered 8 of the windows. Sue and Greg Reiss talked me into doing them.   It took me one year to complete them.  We live in Tavares, Florida.  The drive down with each window was 7 hours.  And, I prayed each trip that nothing would break.  Sue and Greg stopped here and took the last two tall windows, as they had their motor home and were able to get those in.  Each of the windows along the side of the church took at least 3 1/2 weeks to complete.  My husband helped me to make sure each one was perfectly aligned, then I got him to help me.  Ha. he didn’t think he would learn how hard it is to cut and grind each piece and have plenty of patience when you break one that you are ready to install into the picture. My favorite one that I did, is Mary and Gabriel.  It was mid winter, and cold in our garage, and I had to use a hair dryer to heat each piece of the purple wings.  Also, I threw out my back doing this window and spent a week in bed. When I was working on Jesus and Mary, there was a last minute design change. Sue said they wanted the 3 crosses added. So, I did, and was sweating bullets that I had enough glass and prayed they would look good. We have a vacation rental on Key Colony and I was just down last week and brought some people by to see the windows. With each window, I prayed the family that dedicated them would like them. I have to say that since I completed these, that I have gotten several commissions for windows. Thanks to those who like my work.
