HOT SPRINGS ¬– Over the past week, St. Luke’s Episcopal Church in Hot Springs has undergone some beautifying and protective work on their massive Masonic stainedglass window, which was originally installed in 1901, measuring 10 feet wide by 15 feet high.
“The plexiglass placed in the 1970s has weathered,” said St. Lukes Deacon Linda Valandra, “and we lose so much heat in the winter.”
