Rose Window

Picture
Picture
The rose window over the choir loft, surrounded by the magnificent pipes of the organ, is modeled after the Rose Window of Notre Dame in Paris. The image is that of a beautiful rose in bloom. (from A Tour of the Church of St. Ita)

The Alpha and Omega symbols come from Revelation 1:8: “I am the Alpha and the Omega,” says the Lord God, “the one who is and who was and who is to come, the almighty.”


Upper Arches of Medallion Windows

Every second, fourth, and sixth medallion window is crowned with symbols related to Jesus, the Son of God and our Redeemer. All the others are crowned with angels in worship, as shown below.
