16. & 17. To the left of the original entrance on King Street. "St. Matthew & St. Mark"
Two medieval style, full figure stained glass windows depicting the Evangelists Matthew on the left, and Mark on the right. These, and the windows on the right of the doorway, were made by Franz Mayer & Sons in the 1950s, and dedicated August 27, 1961. In the lower panel of the windows are the Christian symbols for each saint including:
Matthew as a winged man,
Mark as a winged lion. (Ezekiel 1: 10)
Both saints are holding books, symbolizing their gospels. Mark is wearing green vestments, Matthew is seen in red. Both are standing against a deep blue background with unusual detail in each face. The four Evangelist windows (16, 17, 18 & 19) were designed to be viewed from the street.
