Sunday

Rose window re-dedication, 10:30 a.m., at the worship service at Williston-Immanuel Church. The window was designed by glass artist Harry Wright Goodhue, who was about 23 when the window was created in 1928. It has been restored with a grant from the estate of Ruth and Edward Nelson. Dr. Nelson was pastor of Immanuel Baptist Church from 1945 until his retirement in 1979. The restoration work was done by Robin Neely and Mark Bagala, both of Falmouth. Guided tours will be offered after the regular weekly services for viewing all 37 stained glass windows in the sanctuary and chapel. Williston-Immanuel United Church is located at 156 High St., Portland. For more information, visit williston-immanuel-united.org.
