Although Holy Rosary Catholic Church on the east side of Toledo is no longer functioning as a parish, a piece of the parish will continue to live on.

The Diocese of Toledo has donated some of the stained glass windows from the church building to Cardinal Stritch High and Kateri Catholic Academy from the Diocese of Toledo.

“This is such a powerful way to make sure that these beautiful stained glass windows continue to have a presence in our diocese in a school building that includes students from each of the parishes in the Blessed Kateri Deanery.” said Fr. Eric Schild, President of Cardinal Stritch High School and Kateri Catholic Academy.

With the support from parishioners and friends of Blessed Kateri Deanery, five stained glass windows have been installed in the school’s chapel, media center and both the high school and academy. The windows throughout the school have been framed in a handcrafted wooden box and have lights placed in the back to illuminate the various mysteries of the rosary contained in glass.
