This church is a magnificent structure with a contemporary design inspired by the fish, a symbol used in early Christianity. The fish shape is apparent both in the profile and in the floor plan of the structure. Of interest are the abstract colored glass windows and the Visser-Rowland Opus 87 type organ. Outside, a walk of more than 100 stones depicts the history of religion from the time of Moses and Abraham. Memorial Wall, fronting the church property, traces the history of Stamford. Carillon concerts are held on special days during the year, call for schedule.
