After the weekend Scotland has just had with #StormÉowyn, this magnificent window from St Columba's Church in Largs, showing Christ calming the storm, seems very appropriate for #StainedGlassSunday!
It was created by the firm of Winton Ltd for the church opening in 1892. (1/2)

27 Jan: feast of St Julian of Le Mans #otd A very obscure 4thC saint about whom little is known.
Later promoted by Henry II who was himself born in Le Mans & baptised in St. Julian's (SelbyMay)
Julian was commemorated in the Sarum rite & many #English #Benedictine houses.

Lewis Carroll (Charles Dodgson), author of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass, was born #OTD 1832 in Daresbury, near Warrington. This 1935 memorial window at All Saints Church, Daresbury, depicts scenes from Alice in the bottom panels.

One More Dead Palestinian Kid
They killed a two year-old girl in the West Bank on Saturday.
Laila al-Khatib was shot in the head by Israeli forces in Jenin, because I guess they needed one more dead Palestinian kid.

joined a small new church community tonight in Allston and celebrated the feast of Li Tim-Oi Florence.
I do think religious community and prayer is the only way I’ll get through this.

Margaret Edith Rope's 1919 window at Clippesby, Norfolk, her first major commission (and, in East Anglia at least, her best).
