The two narrow windows in the chancel are made of 11th century glass fragments from the Canterbury Cathedral in England that was shattered during Second World War bombing raids. The glass fragments were, by special permission of the Cathedral, given to Archdeacon Greig, a parishioner during the war. These windows, a memorial gift from Mrs. Greig and her family, were dedicated on December 6, 1970.
