April 22, 1923. The Adoniram Judson window in the First Baptist Church of Oak Park, IL, was dedicated 102 years ago this week, April 22, 1923. The Great West Windows in the sanctuary feature vocations of the Christian ministry. One of those examples is Adoniram Judson, first American Baptist foreign missionary, and forerunner of the whole modern missionary movement. The radiant book toward which he gazes symbolizes the Bible; and the barred background suggests his two-year imprisonment during which he worked on his translation of the Bible into Burmese.
