Photographer note reads, "This parish is almost totally Spanish, as is Wilmington. The stain glass windows for the sacraments are in Spanish. Inside was total awareness of 'sacred space'". This stained glass window depicting the "Eucharist" is located along one of the walls at Holy Family Catholic Church, located at 1011 East "L" Street and the corner of Sanford Ave. in the city of Wilmington.; The sacrament of the Eucharist (also called Holy Community or Lord's Supper) is celebrated by almost every Christian denomination in some form. It is said to have been institute by Jesus of Nazareth and is generally seen as a sacrament commemorating the action of Jesus at his Last Supper with his disciples. Photo dated: September 2007.
