The twenty-four windows in the nave and sanctuary of our church are designed by Mr. Francis Deck and executed by Mr. Emil Frei. They illustrate the various parts of the Eucharist and their history. The windows begin with rather light colors on the right-hand side, at the entrance of the church. They become progressively darker and more colorful towards the sanctuary.
