Afghanistan & Iraq Memorial Print Page Print this page


Photographs supplied by John Huth

Two stained glass windows commemorate the cost of war to the families of those who served in Afghanistan and Iraq. 

The new windows were installed for 2015, designed to represent the cost of war to families as in Afghanistan and Iraq. They have the darker yellow colours representing these countries. The first window is the crucifixion and represents the cost of war to families. The second window shows a woman in a downcast position behind Mary Magdalene who holds her head looking upward for reconciliation and hope (rather than war) and in the risen Christ.
