The people who walked in darkness have seen a great light; those who lived in the land of deep darkness, on them has light shined... For a child has been born for us, a son given to us; authority rests upon his shoulders; and he is named Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
Isaiah 9:2b,6.

The principal theme in these blue Advent hangings is hope in the darkness - God's spirit calling us to light and life. The "deep darkness" of personal and global problems in which we often find ourselves appears in the dark graphic gestures reaching from the left towards the right side of the superfrontal and at the edges of the antependium. In and among these forbidding marks are glimpses of reflected light, movement and door posts of the threshold to the rest of our lives and to the new millennium. On the far right and in the antependium are images and gestures of light and life, God's presence to be found in the heart of human life.
