For almost 100 years, the windows have stood the test of time, rain, sleet and hail. In recent days, they have been taken down to be restored, according to Ann Lucas, president of Window Traditions of Georgia in Johns Creek. Concord Baptist entrusted the task of taking down the windows to Lucas and Bob Froyen, a stained-glass restoration expert with Llorens Stained Glass Studio and Hardeman Fine Art.
