The Resurrected Christ, mosaic designed by
Hildreth Meiere (Resurrection Chapel reredos)
The risen Christ appears to us first on our pilgrimage behind the altar
in Resurrection Chapel. Armed with a flag of victory, the mosaic Christ
stands in triumph over death and sin. (Artist: Hildreth Meiere). Walking
down the length of the chapel, Christ appears to Mary Magdalene in the
garden, then to the men on the road to Emmaus, next to the disciples
gathered in the upper room, and then to Thomas. Along the back wall he
appears on the Sea of Tiberias and makes his final appearance. (Artist:
Rowan and Irene LeCompte). Christ has established the new covenant and
opened for us the gates of eternal life.
