Gethsemane Stained Glass Window Restoration

Since 1910, Our Saviours Lutheran Church has been a place of refuge for Boston’s newest and most dispossessed residents—sailors on leave, refugees, immigrants, fire victims, the unhoused and the hungry. Known throughout the community as “the place with the beautiful stained-glass window”, Christ in the Garden of Gethsemane towers above the street, radiating welcome. Time and vandalism have damaged the window. The lower panel recently fell out, so the window was boarded up to prevent further damage. The Church is a hub of neighborhood activity, but from the street appears to be another fatality of the pandemic. Quotes for window restoration exceed $53,000. We have raised $20,500, and have applied for a grant. Your support will enable us to move forward with this restoration project!
