The Calling of Peter Window
Created by Arthur & Ethel B. Norris in New Rochelle, New York in memory of John Crockhart Scobie, died 1944.
This window depicts Christ calling Peter and his brother, Andrew to come follow him and fish for men. “Straight away they left their nets (Matthew 4: 18 - 20). It is hard to consider how we would feel if Jesus appeared today and invited us to drop everything to follow him and yet, that is what we are asked to do every single day. May we hear him calling and stand up to follow in his footsteps each and every day.
Almighty Father, who didst inspire Simon Peter, first among the apostles, to confess Jesus as Messiah and Son of the living God; Keep thy Church steadfast upon the rock of this faith, that in unity and peace we may proclaim the one truth and follow the one Lord, our Saviour Jesus Christ; who liveth and reigneth with thee and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen
