Trinity Episcopal Baptismal Font gifts and symbolism explored
Trinity Episcopal church marks 126 years since the 1898 dedication of a marble baptismal font gifted by Anna and Grace Eastman. The eight sided base and circulating carvings symbolize eternity, baptism, and rebirth while hints about its weight and brass pulley reveal its grand craftsmanship and history. The font stands near the sanctuary entrance as a reminder of baptism as believers enter worship.
