Lenten Daily Devotion: Following the positive reception of the daily Advent Breath Prayer last fall, St. Dunstan's is offering "Seeking" - a daily question and prayer resource developed by Rev. Sarah A. Speed from A Sanctified Art. The resource is sent daily to people who are on the parish's electronic distribution list. To sign up for the Parish Newsletter, visit the website st-dunstans.ca
Featured Artwork throughout Lent: Beginning this Sunday, St. Dunstan's will feature one of Erica Grimm's "Our Father" series 4 colour etchings each week. The whole series is a meditation on the Lord's Prayer inspired by the ministry of Karol Wojtyla, Pope John Paul II. Together they represent a plea for peace between nations, and within human hearts. Each print images the contradictions between the ways of peace and the ways of war. From the artist, "My prayer was, and is, that the global collective commons would choose ‘breaking of bread’’ and ‘beating swords into plowshares’ over war. The featured artwork this Sunday:
Sign of Contradiction: this etching juxtaposes the sign of the cross over the sign of the mushroom cloud of nuclear war. Note that the cross strips/dilutes the bomb blast power)
