Christ's Service To You:
His Crucifixion
Altar of Saint Michael the Archangel

The altar in this bay is dedicated to Michael the Archangel. The great defender in the battle against evil is one of the patrons of the universal Church and was the personal patron of Archbishop Curley, who preceded Archbishop Keough as Archbishop of Baltimore (see his bio in the Historical Perspectives section of this website).

Saint Michael the Archangel is also the patron Saint of the German people, one of the largest groups of immigrants to come to the United States in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

This window's theme is the crucifixion of Jesus Christ.
