Since you liked my side wound ask, I'm sharing you a (paraphrased) bit I loved from my priest's homily for Sunday of St. Thomas:

St. Thomas is never shamed by the narrative for asking to touch the wounds - if anything, it's the opposite, since Christ grants his request without complaint. Hence, where St. John represents coming to Christ through unwavering faith and Ss. Peter and Paul represent coming to Christ through repentance, St. Thomas represents coming to Christ through questioning - and all of them are saints for it.

Duuuude this is so great! God bless your priest, he's so right! There is no shame in Thomas' request!

Honestly i love it about Jesus so much that He heard Thomas saying "this is what I would need to believe" and He went "okay, then I'll give it to you. because I love you". And you know what? He did the same to me. He does the same to everybody. Coming to faith through questioning, arguing with God, doubting even but only sincere and hopeful doubting, and all of it being holy, man, God is so good!!

Hagemeier is a former student of the famous Dutch type designer and calligrapher Chris Brand, and he selected DTL Albertina for the lettering. At that time he was working together with Frank E. Blokland on the lettering of the stained-glass windows of the St. Peter Church in the city of Leyden (see also this video). Blokland designed a special version of DTL Albertina with shorter ascenders and descenders, and smaller capitals for the window of the St. Peter and Paul Church.

The view of Fenchurch St. Paul that appears as the frontispiece to The Nine Tailors was drawn by William John Redhead (c. 1888-1941). He worked as a tax inspector and occasional architect in Witham, Essex, where Sayers also lived from 1929. (x)

Sayers acknowledges his contribution in the foreword to the novel: "My grateful thanks are due to Mr. W. J. Redhead, who so kindly designed for me the noble Parish Church of Fenchurch St Paul and set it about with cherubims.”
