Works of art and beauty have adorned the places of Christian worship from the earliest days. Already in the catacombs of first century Rome, we find Christian symbols and depictions of Christ the Good Shepherd, the Holy Spirit, Mary, and various martyrs. Paintings, stained glass, statues, and other forms of art are tied to the mystery of the Incarnation: in Jesus Christ, the Word made flesh, the invisible love, truth, and beauty of God are made visible to us. Art engages our imagination through the senses, and can lead us to God, Whose perfect Beauty is reflected in creation.
Saint John Cantius Church contains many treasures of Christian beauty in sign and symbol, particularly in the stained glass windows...
