Anyone who has visited Trinity & St. Philip’s Cathedral in Newark, perhaps for a confirmation or ordination service, knows it is graced with beautiful stained glass windows. On September 10, 2016, the history of its first memorial windows was brought to vivid life for the congregation when they hosted a visit by the descendants of the 19th-century patriarch who donated them.
