Lit By God’s Light:
The Windows of Trinity Church

J & R Lamb Studio

On the eastern wall there are three traditional designs by J & R Lamb Studio, founded in 1857, considered to be the first American studio to specialize in all facets of ecclesiastical design, particularly Episcopal.

Eli Rogers Window (1889)
	This depicts a cross with rings of ivy.  It was remodeled after the original altar window given in memory of Eli’s mother, Fanny Rogers. Eli was a Sunday school superintendent, and Warden.

The Alice Jourdan Window (1925)
	This depicts the Angel of Hope holding a lily.  The window was donated by Henry Jourdan in memory of his wife, Alice.

The Kent Window (1981)
	The design depicts a woman at the well holding a jar.  Marion Merrill Kent was a Sunday school teacher, and children’s choir director. The window was donated by the Trinity Girls’ Club.
