The churches where I grew up had plain glass windows, hard pews and paper fans to fan yourself in the heat. Does all that sound familar? I find the sight of stained glass inspiring but it is not essential for me. As a child, I was just as inspired with the crayons in an old Whitman's chocolate box in my Sunday school class and with all the stories from the Bible...that was my color.<br />And Beth, thank you, if I get to see the windows, I will do a post about it, to be sure!Kay G.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07228498846814735537noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4716894977482967985.post-22755122221765639122012-03-21T17:19:30.684-04:002012-03-21T17:19:30.684-04:00Dear Audrey,

These stained glass windows from the monastery are really huge and were made by the monks themselves. The first time that I saw this monastery was when I was a teenager and I fell in love with the building, the stained glass windows and the grounds!Kay G.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07228498846814735537noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4716894977482967985.post-42445864618401201122012-03-21T17:07:28.281-04:002012-03-21T17:07:28.281-04:00Dear Meike,

Since I grew up in small country churches (where my Daddy preached), I haven't seen a lot of stained glass windows.
