These stained glass windows are located at Christ, Prince of Peace Roman Catholic Church on the corner of 4th Avenue and 8th Street in Ford City, Pennsylvania. The church was built in 1912 and was originally called Saint Mary's Church. At some point the parish was renamed Christ, Prince of Peace. It is now a partner parish with Saint Lawrence Church in the nearby town of Cadogan.

The church has a number of beautiful stained glass windows depicting scenes from the lives of Christ and the Blessed Virgin Mary. These include, the Annunciation, the Nativity, the presentation in the temple, the wedding at Cana, the crucifixion, the Assumption of Mary, and the coronation of Mary. There are also many windows with images of saints, including Saint Benedict, Saint Dominic, Saint Francis of Assisi, Saint Anthony of Padua, and Saint Vincent de Paul. Two of the windows have "Innsbruc" written in the lower corner, possibly naming the location of their production as Innsbruck, Austria. However, the name of the maker could not be found.
