The historic stained-glass windows of Muhlenberg Chapel at Mount Sinai St. Luke’s are being restored, thanks to a fund-raising effort led by Norma M.T. Braun, MD, Clinical Professor of Medicine, Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai. The chapel is named a– er the founder of St. Luke’s, Episcopal clergyman William Augustus Muhlenberg. Its windows, designed by the architect Henry Holiday in 1896, were recently selected as a point of interest in the New York Landmarks Conservancy’s annual Sacred Sites Open House. Restoration is to be completed later this year. Meanwhile, the chapel will continue multidenominational services, remaining “a beautiful and serene retreat for prayer and contemplation,” says the Rev. Meredith D.K. Lisagor, MDiv, BCC, Director of Spiritual Care and Education at Mount Sinai St. Luke’s and Mount Sinai West.
