The Healing Power of Jesus Christ

When we were in Kirtland Ohio a year ago we were so blessed to see a traveling set of sculptures done by Angela Johnson. She had been an opera singer who at one point gave up that career and began working with clay. She said she was asked by neighbors and friends to make them selected pieces of art and was often told what a gift her hands had. At that point she decided to ask Father in Heaven what He wanted her hands to do. This is only part of the set we have. It is such a powerful missionary tool. In Kirtland there wasn't time to get up close to each piece and look into the faces of Christ, but here we have alot of time right now before the busy season, so I have really enjoyed spending time just studying these wonderful pieces of art. I look into the faces of each piece and try to understand the feelings that are there.
