St. Paul's - Stained Glass Windows 
       
The building has a fine set of stained glass windows, mostly by Hart Studios of Hillsdale, Michigan.  The stained glass windows in the nave of St. Paul's tell stories from the life of Our Lord Jesus Christ.  The story begins with the Nativity of Our Lord and ends with His Ascension into Heaven.  All windows are unified by the insertion of a vine and branch theme to suggest that Our Lord is the Vine and we are the branches.  All the Windows also include a lily symbol in honor of St. Mary the Virgin.
