After the excitement of last week we were back to more familiar things.
Verity and Vicky continued our series ‘Shaped by….’ helping us look at how we are shaped by Christ (appropriate on the Feast of Christ the King).
We started with an invite to go and chose an image of Christ from the altar (some taken from ‘The christ we share‘)- there were a selection of varied images from around the world, some quite familiar in style others not so. Having chosen an image we returned to our tables and then discussed a number of questions….’What does the image mean to you?’ ‘Does it reflect how you see Christ?’ ‘Do you think it is a ‘true’ reflection of Christ?’
We were later invited to go and have our photo taken. The images were with our chosen picture of Christ projected onto us. There were more questions for us to ponder once we’d had photos taken. ‘What does it mean to shaped by Christ?’, ‘Is this the image you want to be shaped into?’ ‘How do others see this image of Christ in you?’ ‘Who helps to shape you into this image of Christ?’
After all of us had had our photos taken the images were projected up for us all to see. The results were amazing – beautiful, moving thought provoking.
