The stained glass windows at St Paul's were created by a famous glass studio, Judson
Studios of Pasadena. There's a handy booklet with photos, describing each window, which you can pick up in the porch. It's worth a walk round with a pair of binoculars to take a look (and don't forget the windows in the chapel, the spectacular window in the south transept, and the clerestory.) Dean Penny took a group round this morning, particularly focussing on the Pauline windows in the nave that highlight events in the life of St Paul, accompanied by relevant readings from Acts.
Here are some photos.
