The Chancel window is above the choir loft on the east wall.
The window was a gift of Paul E. Kleinheksel, Frank D. Kleinheksel
and John Lewis Kleinheksel in honor of Professor John H. Kleinheksel,
Mrs. Anna S. V. R. Kleinheksel and Miss Vera Anna Kleinheksel.
Six trilobe medallions surround
a center circular medallion in a floral design at the top
of the window (shown right).

The sections
above the panels are symbolisms. The I.H.S. is the
Greek symbolism for Jesus, Savior of Man. The other
symbolism, an X overlaying the letter P are the first
two Greek letters of the name of Christ.

There are four scenes from the life of Christ.
From left to right: The first shows the shepherds, symbolic of
the birth of Christ. The next shows a young Jesus at the temple
with Joseph and Mary. The third is a tender scene of Jesus blessing
the little children. The last is one of a woman pointing two
little children to the Christ.
