Lyle Novinski’s Pentecost window in St. Rita’s Catholic Church, Dallas, Texas, stretches the medium of glass beyond traditional limits, achieving motion, not stasis, and thereby reminding us of the action of God’s grace in our lives.  This contemporary treatment of the biblical story is analogous to the poems in Presence: A Journal of Catholic Poetry, the aim of which is to show the human soul in action, moved by God’s grace in any number of ways.
