Stained Glass Windows in the Sanctuary of
First Baptist Church of Royal Oak
I H S
I H S is a monogram for Jesus, being the first three letters of the Creek word for Jesus, IHSOUS. (Capital
H in Creek has the same pronunciation as long A in English.) The centrality of Jesus in the Christian faith
needs no comment. Jesus is Lord to every Christian. The triangle indicates the divine power expressed
through I H S, or Jesus.
