St. Matthew’s Evangelical Lutheran Church

Wauwatosa, Wisconsin

At St. Matthew’s Evangelical Lutheran Church in Wauwatosa, Wisconsin, new Leptat^® windows were created for the sliding doors leading from the gathering space into the body of the church. This opening, now graced with the theme of Creation, is literally the doorway from daily life to the religious. Angel imagery is depicted in the two windows that flank the doors, representing communication between people and God. With hands extended, they invite the congregation into the worship space. The new etched glass designs draw on traditional imagery, while embracing a simpler, more contemporary style that suits the architecture of the church.
