Eric Liddell centenary celebration window, looking out onto a scene he would have known well, Holy Corner. Appropriately from the community hub that is named after him in #Bruntsfield , commemorating a century since his famous "Chariots of Fire" moment at the 1924 Paris Olympics.

I love the Scottish Saltires & French tricolors. Vive the Auld Alliance!

Since it's both the opening weekend of the #ParisOlympics , & a century since his famous run, celebrated in Chariots of Fire, here's the stained glass window commemorating Eric Liddell, in Morningside United Church, where he worshipped.

Our window has a distinctly Parisian vibe as we join many other local Indy #Bruntsfield shops in marking a century since local lad Eric Liddell's famous #ParisOlympics event, celebrated in the Oscar-winning Chariots of Fire.
