This organization stole a Nationally Registered historically significant stained glass window that was a gift from Mary Breckinridge to the people of Leslie County. They put it on a truck and drove it to Versailles, the reimagined frontier.

The Frontier Nursing University began as the Frontier Nursing Service. Mary Breckinridge, the founder of the service, taught nurses in the trade of midwifery, resulting in the significant improvement of health for new mothers and a huge reduction of infant mortality. Mary Breckinridge gifted the community of Hyden with a 15th century stained glass window depicting Saint Christopher. It was placed in a chapel near the old Hyden hospital. FNU took it upon themselves to remove this beloved artifact and move it to their new location in Versailles. They have turned their backs on the people their founder loved and served. They have stolen a gift and cherished piece of history. I will never respect this organization again until THE ORIGINAL window is returned to its rightful place in the chapel. Their new headquarters in Versailles is a more proper home for the replica they are intending to replace the Hyden window with. The replica is more appropriate for the Versailles location because the organization today is nothing like what Mary Breckinridge wanted for her community. She would be outraged at the idea of the window being moved and would have never permitted it. #returnourwindow

Would give 0 stars if I could. This program is so far from the vision and mission of Mary Breckinridge. They only exploit and take from the region that she came to help. They say they’re moving because Hyden is difficult to travel to. The whole purpose of Mary Breckinridge’s mission was to bring healthcare to hard to reach areas. Maybe the “hardship” of coming an hour down the interstate and 40 minutes on a parkway will instill Mary Breckinridge’s mission in students more than a piece of stained glass hanging in Versailles.
