TARRYTOWN, N.Y. (AP) – Twenty years after a Tiffany stained glass window was put into storage, it is again gracing a suburban New York church.

The window was unveiled Sunday at the Reformed Church of the Tarrytowns in Westchester Country.

Known as the John Knox Allen Memorial Tiffany window, it was designed in Tiffany’s New York studios in 1930. It hung above the altar of the First Reformed Church of North Tarrytown in honor of Allen. He was pastor of the church for 50 years.

When the church merged in 1991 with the Second Reformed Church down the street, the window was taken down and crated.

The Journal News says parishioners of the combined church on Sunday admired the restored window in an annex that was expanded to accommodate it.
