Extension magazine - Winter 2022
Our cover presents the artwork drawn by two groups of children who suffered horrendous tragedies in their communities this year: Ukraine and Uvalde, Texas. As we end a year marked by terror, violence and war, we invited them to lead us in reflection this Christmas season through their drawings and letters. Their art reveals how their faith offers them hope for a better future and shapes the way they see our God and our world.
