Art Exhibition 12 December at sydney adventist hospital

As part of the God of Hope art exhibition, students from our Adventist Schools around Sydney entered an art competition and were asked, What does Hope look like?

This competition encouraged art making as a catalyst for spiritual dialogue across our Greater Sydney schools. Each piece showed glimpses of what hope looks like through the eyes of our young people.

Life’s journey can take us through dark and difficult times, however the theme of Hope reassures us that healing and restoration is through Christ alone. – Megan Lillo
