Typically, each of the Stained Glass Windows have a Jesus Christ based scene. Behind the altar/pulpit there are five windows.
* North: Christ with red cape, and white robe, holding a hanging glass covered lamp in His left hand, with His right hand raised. There is a brown tree branch 'behind Him', with some white stalks 'in front' of Him. He is wearing a gold crown, and 'halo'.
* North East: 'Christ the Shepherd', with red, and purple capes, wearing a white robe, is holding a lamb in His left arm against His chest; while the 'mother' sheep is looking up to Him. He is holding a tall 'crook' shepherd staff in His right hand. There are green leafy trees and pasture 'behind' Him.
* East: Christ is seated on a black cloud, holding a staff in His right hand. A large red cape is draped over His knees, and over His white robe. The early morning sun (0735) highlighted the white 'halo'. There are two orange-red winged angels with halos at His feet.
* South East: Bearded man with a halo is clad in an orange robe, clutching a book to his chest. He is in front of gold edged, purple drape, that is in front of two green pillars. To the right of his feet is a 'winged' horned creature, with a white banner, that could read, "SIN BULL" [unclear].
* South: Christ is wearing a white robe, with a red cape that had gold trim. He is holding a child in His left arm to His chest, while there are two children, and a purple clad mother holding an infant 'at His feet'. There is a pastoral scene behind.
There are two more Stained Glass windows, one of which is on the southern wall. It has Christ standing, looking at a fisherman clad in a green robe working his net, and a pile of fish. There is a boat with a furled sail, and lake scene behind the characters.
* Foyer, to the West: Christ in white robe, with white cape is standing, with a kneeling, long haired woman in front of Him, holding a bottle in her left hand. Her robe is light brown, with dark brown 'skirt'. There is a steep, brown hill to Christ's right, with what could be an open tomb.
Each of the windows has a plaque beneath it, with a message of dedication from a parishioner. Obviously the best views are from the inside of this lovely Church. So you would need to be here EARLY on a Sunday morning, as their Service starts at 7.45 am, and finishes at 9am.
