In Attleboro, in the Welcome Center for The National Shrine of Our Lady of La Salette, are three stained glass windows mounted facing the lobby area of the center.

These windows relate the story of the appearance of the Virgin Mary, the mother of Christ Jesus, to two children, in the town of La Salette, France. Each window has a scene that relates part of the story of how two shepherd children had met and talked with Mary. The first scene shows when the children came across Mary sitting and weaping. The second scene shows when Mary stood up and talked with the children. The third scene was here final message to them before she disappeared from the plateau, Mont-sous-les-Baisses.
