This week on the commission4mission webpage we have stories about the dedication of our first completed commission and about the opening of our current exhibition.
Our first completed commission, two paintings by Henry Shelton, was dedicated on Tuesday 1st September as part of the dedication by the Rt. Revd. David Hawkins (Bishop of Barking and Patron of Commission For Mission), Rt. Revd. Mgr. David Manson (Vicar General, Brentwood Diocese) and Revd. Roy Jackson (Superintendent Minister, Romford Methodist Circuit) of the new St Luke's Chapel at Queen's Hospital, Romford.
A set of Henry Shelton's Stations of the Cross are currently on show at St Barnabas Walthamstow as part of the E17 Art Trail. Steven Saxby writes about how thrilled he is to have them displayed at St Barnabas.
At the Greenbelt Festival there was much talk about eradicating the gap between what we believe and how we act. So it has been encouraging to return from a Festival celebrating the creativity of the Arts to these two specific expressions of that God-given creativity that commission4mission has incubated and brought to birth.
