Why Your Stained Glass Windows Matter
Stained glass is more than just a window; it’s a vivid tapestry of faith, history, and artistry. Beyond their aesthetic appeal, these panels often tell powerful stories of devotion while connecting generations and communities.
Unfortunately, even the most beautiful glass isn’t immune to time. Environmental exposure, aging materials, and improper repairs can leave windows cracked, bowed, or weakened.
This webinar is designed for church leaders who strive to honor and preserve their stained glass windows’ spiritual and cultural value, offering expert insights into restoration that respects both legacy and budget.
