Chagall Home Windows
Tombstones and the coats of arms of the capitular families recall their reminiscence. The coats of arms are enriched by fashionable keystones donated by the federal and state governments, the bishopric and metropolis of Mainz. Works of art, such because the enthroned God the Father from the 15th century, or the late Gothic sculpture of St. Anne, the Virgin and the Christ Child, should also not be missed. For some years in St. Stephen’s, youngsters have been baptised in the unique Gothic baptismal font from 1330 once more. Marc Chagall, who became an honorary citizen of Mainz, however by no means obtained to know the city, completed his final window shortly before his demise at the age of 97. Nineteen later and deliberately extra modest windows within the facet aisles by Charles Marq, from the Atelier Jacques Simon in Reims, serve to lead up to the masterpieces.
The church, on the approach road to the town centre, seats 250 and has disabled access. The church has a properly-equipped kitchen, a separate assembly room for Junior Church, an open social space and bathrooms together with disabled amenities. I thought this may have all been over by last Easter, boy was I mistaken. I do hope and pray that we will be back to a extra normal setting in our Church sometime this summer season. In the meantime hold the religion, share the religion and be safe on the market.
