Holy Trinity Stained Glass
The stained glass windows depicting the Stations of the Cross were installed on December 17–18, 1999 and were dedicated by The Rt. Rev. Larry E. Maze, 12th Bishop of Arkansas, and The Rev. James R. McLean, Jr., rector of Holy Trinity, in a special ceremony on March 9, 2000. The windows were designed by Mrs. Roberta Katz-Messenger of Pentacle Studio in Clinton, Ark. Mrs. Katz-Messenger was influenced in her design by the woodcuts of Clemems Schmidt in the book The Way of the Cross, published by the Order of St. Benedict’s Liturgical Press, Collegeville, Minn. The large stained glass windows - "He Is Risen" - above the alter were installed in 2007 and dedicated in September 2007.
