He Offers Children of All Nations to the Holy Family glass stained window

10. He Offers Children of All Nations to the Holy Family

The similarity between the painting and the window is evident by the extension of De La Salle’s arm heavenward, the children in native garb and Saint Peter’s Basilica in the background, representing the worldwide character of the work of the Brothers. The cherub symbol is used to remind us of God’s presence. The garland of fruit represents the bountifulness of Divine Providence, while the face represents the fullness of life.
