It is great to be able to connect good and beautiful action in our community with the Source of such goodness and beauty. In my work with the Youth Art Team over the past six years, I so often experience and desire to point to Jesus, His character, and the values of His Kingdom that I experience in the midst of the Youth Art Team's work.
Through the latest Urban Intervention project of creating 53 butterflies together, I saw hope, beauty, invitation, empowerment, bridge-building across divides, the value of a child's voice and gifts, creativity, and care for all people and the whole of our community. These all speak of the nature of Jesus, and just as Christ is God's wonderful intervention into our world, the Youth Art Team's butterfly sculptures have been a wonderful intervention into our community.
We'd love for you to help us celebrate God's gift of our young people and their amazing voice in our community through their artwork. We'd love for you to help us celebrate this good and beautiful God who invites us into His restoring work through Jesus. See the event information below.
