A gift between friends
For the Church of the Heart of Mary in Posavska Mahala, in the Posavina region of northern Bosnia and Herzegovina, Stanisic Studio made 11 stained glass windows. The 9 nave windows show the Heart of Mary, the Assumption, Saint Anthony of Padua, Saint Joseph, Saint John the Baptist, Saint Elijah, Saint Leopold Bogdan Mandić, Blessed Alojzije Stepinac, and Saints Peter and Paul. A round window above the choir loft shows Saint Cecilia. The pastor, don Ivan Ravlić, was an old friend of the studio from Sarajevo. The Heart of Mary window was his gift together with the studio, and the small sanctuary window was the studio's own gift. The windows were installed in June 2012.
