This window was designed by the artist Victor Noble Rainbird and made by Reid, Millican and Co. of Gateshead. Victor Rainbird came from Yorkshire and lived from 1899 to 1936. Although he was primarily known as an artist he was also a skilled designer of stained glass. The window in the Papa Kirk is the only surviving example of his work and illustrates Jesus calming the storm. Mark 4 v 35-39.

The window was put in on August 4th 1921. The work of taking out the old window of plain glass and putting in the new one was carried out by David Drummond, resident teacher living in the school house, and Tom Henderson of Gardie.

Later a protective grid was put on the outside but in 1957 the window had to be taken out and sent south for repair as a couple of panes had been damaged allowing water to seep in. A window of three panes of frosted glass was put in and remained in situ after the stained glass window was replaced September 15th that year. By 2005 panes in the outer protective glass had been broken and so was overlaid with boarding to keep out the weather.

For the rededication of the Kirk September 16th 2006 the boarding was removed and new protective Perspex with a new frame was put in to preserve the stained glass window from any further storm damage. However, some of the stained glass itself is in need of touching up and the Papa Stour History Group will be looking to address this problem by asking an expert for advice.
