The three Latin inscriptions in the church interior state a power filled message to us.
On the front of old main altar:
Se Nascens Deditsocium "By his birth He offers himself as a companion"
On the altar canopy:
Se Moriens In Praetium "Dying, he offers himself as victim."
On the window over the altar canopy:
Se Regnans Dat In Praemium "Reigning, He offers himself as a reward."
On the Christ the King center window above the crown, in Christ's hand is a banner which reads:
Qui Vicerit Dabei Sedere, Mecum In Throno Meo "He who has conquered (God) will grant you to sit with me on my throne"
