Music at the Last Supper

Music has played a role in the church through the ages in the service of religion. Here we see the specific instance of music in the Last Supper, when Christ insituted the Sacrament of Communion. The scene illustrates the essential part music had in the conduct of worship of even the earliest Christians.

Information on the stained glass windows comes from the book "The Windows and Symbolism of First Methodist Church, Birmingham, Michigan", edited by Dr. Arnold F. Runkel and privately published by the church for its members in 1966.
