There are six windows in the church that are original Tiffany Studios windows - plus six which were made using Tiffany glass. The latter windows were made by the Payne-Spiers Studios of Paterson, New Jersey, in the late 1940's and early 1950's through the efforts of Mr. Thomas Hildreth who was able to have enough of the original Tiffany Glass set aside for the church to be used when the opportunity for new window construction arose.
The ten windows in the nave are each comprised of two main panels separated by a smaller opalescent panel hidden from view by the balcony. The upper panels depict two angels; the lower panels depict scenes from the New Testament with the exception of the Old Testament Isaiah window.
