The Apostles

These windows are symbols of the twelve apostles. In order from left to right, top to bottom are: St. Peter, St. James, St. John, St. Andrew, St. Bartholomew, St, Philip, St. Thomas, St. Matthew, St. Jude, St. Simon, St. Matthias and St. James the Less.

Generally, the symbols in the windows depict what the apostle was credited doing in his lifetime and how he may have been martyred. It is a reminder to us that in spreading the Gospel, the early Christians were persecuted and killed.
