Prescot, St Mary
St Andrew, St Christopher and St Elizabeth - detail.
Edward Woore was also responsible for the "Leyland" window which is inscribed "In memory of John & Elizabeth Leyland and their son John, Churchwarden 1923–1934 and superintendent of Prescot Parish Church Sunday School 1918–1934". In the top 3 panels of the "Leyland" window we see Jesus in the temple with his disciples and young children with their mothers. They had brought their infants to him so he might touch them. The disciples rebuked the mothers for doing so, but Jesus was much displeased and said to them "Suffer little children to come unto me and forbid them not, for such is the Kingdom of God". Mark 10 v.13-14. The bottom part of the window shows St Andrew, St Christopher and St Elizabeth of Hungary.
