Wilderness: State of the Wild
from A Sanctified Art, sanctifiedart.org
February 23—Transfiguration Sunday—After morning worship, come to the dining room to participate in creating artist adornments for our sanctuary during Lent—tables will be set up with all the materials needed to create Lenten vases: bare branches, rocks, clear glass vases, moss. Join with your church family at one of the tables, read the poem and follow the simple directions for creating simple and powerful artist elements for our Lenten worship experience. It is a spiritual experience for all ages. What to help plan, gather materials and create? Let Pastor Teressa know!
