Ministry Mosaics

The image of mosaic is a powerful one theologically.  I love thinking about how God takes the bits and pieces of our lives - some from broken places - and turns them into art.  We decided to use that as a Lenten theme and created a large cross for the season.   We were still worshipping online online, so we wanted something that would be a visual for the video work.   It was my first attempt at mosaic work.

This project got me pretty hooked on mosaic as a craft and I did a lot of it at home.  Then my husband and I decided to take it to the Sr High camp that we were Deaning at Horton Center.  I got a large wire roll to bring along.  The theme for the week had to do with names of God.  Campers designed the mosaic and then had to each select a name for God to embed into it.  They were thrilled with the result and being able to leave this gift for the camp.
