Prayers of Illumination
Saturday 2:00pm | Studio
Prayers of illumination ask the Holy Spirit to lead us from darkness into light, chaos into order and cynicism into meekness. The invocation names the lament of distance and the hope of embrace. Through the linked embroidery of Dutch books and hand written prayers; this art instillation grows as a community asks for the Spirit’s guidance in responding to the vulnerability of its undocumented members and the pressures of gentrification. The piece is currently being created in the Baxter neighborhood of Grand Rapids, MI. at Eastern Ave. Church. During Wild Goose prayers will continue to be stitched into the piece.
