Notice:

The National Inventory of Canadian Military Memorials is a public, crowd-sourced registry that helps Canadians learn about memorials in their communities. Inclusion in the Inventory does not imply VAC ownership or authority. Responsibility for the care, management, and any changes to a memorial rests with its owning or governing organization.

This three-light window was based on the passage from Luke 24:13-50, in which Jesus, after the Resurrection, walks with two of his disciples on the road to the village of Emmaus. It was made by Robert McCausland Limited and dedicated in 1943 in memory of Lieutenant John Dukenfield Pearce, killed in action in Dieppe, August 1942.

Inscription
