CURRENT ISSUE: January / February 2009

Our cover
Blessed be his name forever, enduring as long as the sun (Ps 72:17, from the psalm  of response for Epiphany). The Epiphany celebrates the glory and presence of God to and among humanity. One striking way that God can be revealed is through the works of the great artists. The wonderful ‘Francis’ tapestries of Arthur Boyd certainly do this. We are privileged that a selection of them has been displayed for the public.
