Stained Glass Windows of St. Ita's

Description
-
The stained glass at St. Ita's are a main staple of the church with them being present from inside and outside of the church. The stained glass is made with over six million individually stained glass pieces. The imagery depicted allows for people to understand the story of Christ if they are not able to read or are not familiar with the story of Christ. The art was part of the church designed by Henry J. Schlacks. The stained glass windows give a wonderful glow when the light hits them and shine through, representing God's light shining on the parishioners within. The St. Ita site on the Mary, Mother of God website gives a detailed account of each and every stained glass window that is present in the church.
