Cover: The illustration on the cover is the Easter Angel from the Glencairn
Museum. Joralyn Echols Glenn, Outreach and Public Relations Coordinator,
notes: “This stained glass window is a depiction of the angel greeting the
women at the Lord’s tomb on Easter morning. It was designed by Winfred
Hyatt for the chapel in Glencairn, and was made in the glass factory and studio
in Bryn Athyn using hand-blown glass. It is installed in the chapel, with two
other medallions depicting Easter scenes. It is an example of a 20th century
piece emulating medieval stained glass – including variations in the glass
due to being hand-blown – and endeavoring to inspire the viewer to think
of higher things (like his/her relationship with the Lord) when looking at it.”
