Who we are
Welcome to Saint Charles. We are delighted that you are taking the time to learn about this house of worship.
A church should not simply be another utilitarian building in which the faithful happen to celebrate the Eucharist and other sacraments. A church should be a faith statement. Indeed, in centuries past the church was the bible and catechism of the ordinary people. It's walls and windows told them the Good News of who God is and who they were in God's plan of salvation history. Many years ago it was my privilege to discover this in Paris where I studied church architecture and medieval art.
Thanks to those studies I can now walk into any of Europe's classic Romanesque or Gothic churches and not just look at them, but actually read them, as people long ago must have done. The stained glass, for example, illustrated salvation history and illumined the heroic lives of the saints for people to imitate. The bottom band of stained glass, known as the signature of the window, connected the people's present lives to the saints by depicting the everyday work of the guilds and societies that donated the window. There is a glowing example in the magnificent cathedral of Chartres, near Paris. On the left, near the back of the nave, is a window dedicated to the life of Saint Lubin. Lubin was an illiterate shepherd in the Middle Ages who, taught to read by a hermit, eventually entered a monastery. Later he became abbot and later still, bishop of the Chartres. The vintners and innkeepers of the city donated the window and in the signature band we see the annual cycle of the vine that ruled the vintners' lives. Their labours culminate in the glory of the precious blood, when Saint Lubin, seen in the upper part of the window, holds the chalice of wine high at the consecration of the Mass. The walls of a medieval church, both inside and out, told the faithful of God's faithfulness, of God's promises in the Old Testament to never abandon his people, and of how God fulfilled those promises in the New Testament. Lastly, even the directional layout of the church was a reminder that we are a eucharistic people destined to be the body of Jesus in the present realm, as we await the joyful coming of our Saviour Jesus Christ to take us to the Eternal Realm. In it's layout and art, Saint Charles has respected these traditions without slavishly imitating all the details.
What we did was express the spirit and the faith statement of Christian tradition in a contemporary way. With this general introduction, let us now examine the principal elements and the meaning of symbols in the art of Saint Charles Church.
