The glory of our stained glass
One of the great treasures of St Dominic's is its stained glass. The banner of this website features St Dominic's iconic dog, from the main window above the sanctuary, and at left is featured a detail from the main window, showing St Dominic.
There is a collection of beautiful photographs of our windows on the web:
