St Mark’s Church, Kennington -Windows

Stained glass window behind altar at St Marks Church Kennington

Stained glass windows

The majority of windows in St Marks Kennington are relatively plain but there are a few exceptions. The main window behind the altar depicts the life and ascendency of Christ. It has the motto:

“I will come again and receive you unto myself that where I am there you may be also”

A second window has the motto

“This is my beloved son in whom I am well pleased. Hear him.

The third window commemorates

Ranyard mission founded 1857
Ranyard nurses founded 1868

The motto reads

“I must work the work of Him who sent me.”

(See national archives for information on Ranyard Mission and Nurses)

Domed roof-light

Above the central aisle of St Marks is a stained glass domed roof-light. The design mixes geometric and abstract elements depicting the sun trying to shine through the clouds.

The second picture shows the dome from above and the third the modern roof structure above.
