This stained glass window at St. Paul’s United Church depicts a 3-paneled scene which commemorates fallen soldiers who lost their lives in various battle of the First World War. It is referred to as the First World War Memorial Window. The panels include (1) Christ Knocking at the Door, (2) The Scene at Emmaus, and (3) Sowing the Seed.

The memorial window occupies the first high window on the south side of the building. The original window, which was complete in 1919, only includes the first and second panels – they were saved from a fire on August 4, 1931 that destroyed most of the old church. On Sunday, November 12, 1933, the new St’ Paul’s structure was opened and officially dedicated by the Rev. Francis Vipond.
