St. Dunstan's Church of the Highlands Parish, Shoreline, Washington, Episcopal church in Shoreline, United States.
St. Dunstan's Church is an Episcopal parish building in Shoreline featuring stained glass windows created by the Charles Connick Studio in medieval style that fill the sanctuary and nave. The interior includes seat cushions embroidered with religious symbols and an altar design incorporating pomegranate motifs.
The congregation began worship around 1950 in the Florence Henry Memorial Chapel before constructing the present building on North 145th Street. This building project marked a turning point in establishing the parish as a permanent presence in the Shoreline community.
The church displays wooden carvings including a depiction of Chief Spokan Garry holding a prayer book, making visible the historical link between Anglican faith and the indigenous communities of the region.
The building is easily accessible from the street and offers multiple spaces to explore including the chapel and main sanctuary with distinct features. Visitors should note that two different services are held in separate locations within the complex, each following different liturgical styles.
The stained glass windows are creations of the renowned Charles Connick Studio, celebrated for its high-quality art glass craftsmanship in traditional methods. This detail makes this church an example of the caliber of artistic windows found in many twentieth-century church buildings.
