This stained glass window is at The Church of St Francis Xavier.
Jesus is surrounded by a large flock of sheep and above Him is a dove (representing the Holy Spirit) and the hands of God the Father completing the Holy Trinity.
The inscription at the bottom is from Matthew 11:28: " Venite ad me omnes qui laboratis, et onerati estis, et ego reficiam vos ". A rough translation is " Come to me, all of you that labor and are heavy laden, and I will restore you ".

A statue of the saint stands facing the front entrance at the church named for him, the Church of Saint Francis Xavier. This church is in the only Jesuit parish in Malaysia.

Francis Xavier was a co-founder of the Society of Jesus (ie. the Jesuit Order) and worked as a missionary in many places in Asia including Malaysia. He was in Malacca in from the last months of 1545 to early 1546.

It dates to the late 13th century when the building had been used as a church. Many ancient Roman buildings, especially temples, were repurposed as churches.
