Stained Glass Memorial Plaques

Memorial Plaques in Stained Glass

Anyone who has ever lost a close friend or family member realizes that the love and memories that were shared with that person never go away. Those left behind are often left searching for a fitting way to pay tribute to the deceased and honor a life well lived. Stained glass memorial plaques can certainly meet this need. They can be elaborate ecclesiastic stained glass windows featuring scenes from the life of the Virgin Mary or Jesus Christ; the dedication to the deceased might take up only a very small portion of the work. Simpler stained glass designs can be used if the intention is to make the name of a loved one the focal point of the artwork. If a lost loved one had a favorite psalm or Bible verse, family members might choose to make those words the basis of the stained glass window art. The designs of most stained glass memorial plaques can be altered slightly to acknowledge those who contributed the funds necessary to purchase a stained glass window, renovate a prayer room, or even construct an entirely new church.

What Makes Stained Glass Memorial Plaques a Good Choice For Churches?

Giving parishioners the option to remember their fathers, mothers, siblings, spouses, and dear friends with stained glass memorial plaques is a wonderful idea for so many reasons:

  • The warm glow and complex colors of stained glass panels and plaques can serve as a source of meditation and reflection on the mysteries of life and death.
  • Individuals will be reminded of their cherished loved ones every time they view the stained glass window plaque.
  • Loved ones can take comfort in knowing that these windows for the soul are a lasting tribute that may remain on display for generations.
  • Unlike headstones in graveyards, which are somber memorials, stained glass memorial plaques are gorgeous and uplifting.
  • Bereaved family members can take comfort in knowing the deceased helped his or her beloved parish succeed in both life and death.

As long as church members are given plenty of design choices, it’s likely most will be able to find a stained glass memorial plaque that will serve as a fitting tribute to the person that is dearly missed and was loved so much in life.
