Saint Martins life in stains...

I thought I would take the opportunity to share some stains from Eglise Saint Martin in Pons, for much like the stains in the Cathedral of Orleans which depict the life of Jean d'Arc, these stains depict the life of Saint Martin, which in both instances is unusual,  as usually the stains are of the life of Christ. So without further ado... a quick pictorial of Saint Martin, as he is a central figure in both the Basilica in Tours, and the Abbey of Liguge, outside Poitiers... and thus bridges part 1 and part 2 of 'The Tale Of Two Cities'. :)

The charity of St Martin, who divides his cloak for a begged while in the Roman army.

That night Christ appears to St Martin in a vision and he is converted.









Thankyou for spending some moments to view the stains from Eglise St Martin, Pons. As ever I urge you to visit the link on the top left of this blog to visit Charity Water and spend a moment to see what they are doing. 

Merci :)
