St. George and the Dragon
The stained glass window was donated by Mary Stevens in memory of George Stevens and restored in memory the Fira and Kowalczyk Families. St. George was a saint from the 4th Century. All that is really known about St. George is that he was martyred in Palestine in 303 AD, and that he was a Roman soldier. There is a famous legend that St. George killed a dragon in Libya and rescued a maiden who was being sacrificed to the dragon. St. George is the patron saint of soldiers and Boy Scouts and the patron saint of England. |
