Altar Mosaic235 views
Designed by an artist in Mexico, the altar mosaic was cemented piece by piece to its support backing. It was then raised as one piece from its face down position on the floor to assume its role as the 30+ foot floor-to-peak background for the altar and cross which dominate the chancel.
Note how the flow of the mosaic colors establish a pattern of light which draws the eyes from the cross to Heaven. The mosaic was purchased for the sanctuary by the Lutheran Women's Guild of the congregation

Chancel Seal933 views
The pulpit seal was designed by Martin Luther. At its center is a cross- to remind us that faith in Christ who was crucified saves us.
The heart is placed upon the center of a rose, to show that faith causes joy, consolation and peace.
Around this background is a golden ring, to signify that such bliss in heaven is endless, and more precious than all joys and treasures, since gold is the best and most precious metal. Christ, our dear Lord, will give grace unto eternal life.
