This is some of the Stained Glass that was saved out of the First Baptist Church building that was constructed in 1909. That building was torn down to make room for our current building that was dedicated in 1971.

   The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want.
   He makes me lie down in green pastures, he
   leads me beside quiet waters, he restores
   my soul.  He guides me in the paths of
   righteousness for his name's sake.  Even
   though I walk through the valley of the
   shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for
   you are with me; your rod and your staff,
   they comfort me.  You prepare a table
   before me in the presence of my enemies.
   You anoint my head with oil; my cup
   overflows.  Surely goodness and love will
   follow me all the days of my life, and I
   will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.
 
                               Psalm 23

   Then Jesus came from Galilee to the Jordan
   to be baptized by John.  But John tried to
   deter him, saying, "I need to be baptized by
   you, and do you come to me?"  Jesus replied,
   "Let it be so now; it is proper for us to do
   this to fulfill all righteousness."  Then
   John consented.  As soon as Jesus was
   baptized, he went up out of the water.  At
   that moment heaven was opened, and he saw
   the Spirit of God descending like a dove and
   lighting on him.  And a voice from heaven
   said, "This is my Son, whom I love; with him
   I am well pleased."
    
                               Matthew 3:13-17

  Now a man came up to Jesus and asked,
  "Teacher, what good thing must I do
  to get eternal life?"  "Why do you ask
  me about what is good?" Jesus replied,
  "There is only One who is good.  If
  you want to enter life, obey the
  commandments."  "Which ones?"  the man
  inquired.  Jesus replied, "Do not
  murder, do not commit adultery, do not
  steal, do not give false testimony,
  honor your father and mother, and love
  your neighbor as yourself."  "All these
  I have kept." the young man said.
  "What do I still lack?"  Jesus answered,
  "If you want to be perfect, go, sell
  your possessions and give to the poor,
  and you will have treasure in heaven.
  Then come, follow me."
 
                       Matthew 19:16-21

The Lily of the Valley

I have found a friend in Jesus,
He's everything to me,
He's the fairest of ten thousand
to my soul;
The Lily of the Valley,
in Him alone I see
All I need to cleanse and
make me fully whole.
In sorrow He's my comfort,
in trouble He's my stay;
He tells me every care on
Him to roll.

He's the Lily of the Valley,
the Bright and Morning Star,
He's the fairest of ten
thousand to my soul.

Charles William Fry, 1881
