Wooden icons located in the crossing of the nave, where the Gospel is read in the midst of the people, depict the four evangelists: St. Matthew, St. Mark, St. Luke and St. John. The icons were written by Philip Zimmerman and given in loving memory of William States Lee and Agnes Pringle Lee in 1995 by the Clawson family. Saint Mark, according to early Christian tradition, was a companion and interpreter of Saint Peter. This Gospel is understood by many as a history, in the eschatological or apocalyptic sense, depicting Jesus being caught up in events at the end of time.
