On Sunday December 5th the Christ Church Cathedral congregation viewed for the first time on a Sunday morning the new stained glass window located on the east chancel wall. The new addition is dedicated to the memory of long-time Cathedral parishioner Jane Donegani Short who after a long illness succumbed to cancer in 2008 at the age of 56.

Jane knew that she didn't have a lot of time left and she played an active role in the selection of the theme for the stained glass window, The Woman at the Well from John
