Stained Glass Windows in the Sanctuary of First Baptist Church of Royal Oak

Noah's Ark and Dove

Genesis, chapters six through nine, tells the story of Noah and the Ark. Genesis 8:6-12 tells of Noah sending forth of a dove with the hope that some evidence of the subsiding blood might be forthcoming. The return of the dove with a leaf from an olive tree has become a symbol of peace and promise following storm and flood. The window is viewed from the stern of the Ark.
