Stained Glass Windows in the Churches of Harrisonburg
Emmanuel Episcopal Church
Martyrdom of St. Alban
The principal figure in the first window is that of St. Alban, who was put to death by the Romans in the 3rd
century for sheltering the Christian cleric who converted him. Other figures recall the traditional story of
Joseph of Aramanthea bringing the Holy Grail to England and the Emperor Constantine’s grant of liberty
and conscience to Christians.
