Mosaic at St Chrysostom's Church (1)
Image: © Gerald England Taken: 1 Sep 2022
One of two mosaics erected on the outside of St Chrysostom's Church Image in 2012. They were designed by the Year 6 children from the primary school. This one shows different children holding a prayer ribbon, as used on the church outside prayer tree. The children are united, it tells us, in aspiration, hope and prayer. Above the children is a rainbow, a sign of variety and inclusion. Different colours make up one rainbow. The dove above the children is the dove which signified the end of the flood and God's peace, from the story of Noah. This dove is a logo of church and of St Chrysostom's School. Above the rainbow are more doves, copies of those found on a stained glass window in the Anson Chapel in church. The crown in the mosaic is a reminder of the Queen's Jubilee year, and the words are words of qualities that unite us, chosen by the children: love, laughter, growing together. https://stchrysostoms.wordpress.com/2012/07/21/our-new-mosaics/
