CREATEST HITS AT LA JOLLA PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH




We attended a concert at the La Jolla Presbyterian Church on Father's Day, June 18, 2017, that included favorite songs sung by the choir along with instrumental music. The chancel choir, the La Jolla Brass, a handball choir and the church orchestra were featured.






The church was remodeled during 1956-57.  Ten stained-glass windows were placed to enhance the beauty of the sanctuary.  They were created by the Judson Studios of South Pasadena, a family business that went back to the late 1800’s.  The windows were designed by Bohdan Bucmaniuk who was born in the Ukraine.  His father was a church artist in the Eastern Orthodox branch of Chistianity, so he was well acquainted with Biblical history..  The windows tell the story of Jesus from this birth to his ascension.
