Lesley-Ann Hix Tommey
“Christo de la Paz”
Photography
11” x 16” framed
$130
During the War of the Pacific, Chile and Peru fought over territory. Long after the war ended, they continued battle over their land. In 1929, the two countries signed the Treaty of Lima, making Arica the northernmost city in Chile. Seventy years later, to commemorate the enduring peace and unity between the countries, Chilean artist Valdivieso designed El Cristo de la Paz, and the statue was erected in Arica. Unlike other Christ monuments, "Christ of Peace" points away from Chile. Instead of erecting the figure as a blessing for their own country, Chile's Christ statue stands in Arica, constantly blessing their neighbor to the north.

Whether behind the camera or in the pew or walking down the sidewalk, she chases stories of light every day, feeling especially inspired by the honest, open hearted humanity she sees in God whenever she looks through the viewfinder.

Emily McCollum
“Live in Love,” “Here and Now”
Acrylic on Upcycled Cardboard
8” x 10” framed
$175
My artwork reflects my fascination with people — we are so much alike, yet completely unique. Painting people gives me the chance to slow down and really see someone: the way light catches on a cheek, the spark behind the eyes, the quiet strength or joy they carry. In the intentional slowing down required to paint, I get the chance to love my neighbor through paying attention. Each painting serves as a reminder that every person is worthy of being seen and cherished.

Morgan Profitt-Davis
Peace on Earth I, II, III
Block Print
(3) 11” x 14” framed
$100 each
These three prints display doves flying overlaid with the phrase, "Peace on Earth." Interposed on top of that is an image of a broken machine gun. By using the colors of the flag, the red, white, and blue color scheme here alludes to the United States' lack of peace regarding gun violence. To truly love our neighbor, we must hope and wish for real and lasting peace on Earth.

Agnes Preston-Brame
Stories Retold (C-2433)
Oil on Canvas
38” x 30”
$2850
Lately, I have been spending lots of time with my elderly mother. We talk and reminisce from sunrise till sunset. This painting, however, is not a true depiction of the two of us, but a reminder of how important it is to listen, to actually hear one another regardless of our connections to one another. To listen is to love.

“God Is On All Sides”
Mixed Media
17” x 24” framed
$400
The central figure in this piece worries that God won’t respect his needs as he feels marginalized by the world he occupies when around him people of different faith practices are praying for him as God is God for all. We love our neighbors as we hold them close in prayer and actively try to do what is possible to help.
