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 ".
