Bethesda Lutheran Church is home to over a dozen beautiful stained glass images. These images were designed by artist
Tenold Peterson. These works of are were commissioned in memory or honor of someone within the local church congregation. Each window has a common theme of water, including the healing waters of the Pool of Bethesda for which the church is named. Interior lighting is used to stunning effect. For example in the "hands" window below, the artist created the illusion that the water is actually flowing. If you are moving past the window the back light creates a glittering effect in the water as if it is actually flowing over the hands.
