The Exhibit Opening: Fukushima to Vancouver 2015

It is finally here. All artworks are on display at Regent College Lookout Gallery. I am so grateful for all those who prayed and supported to bring this work of God's beauty for Fukushima, the message of Easter Hope to our city, Vancouver.

The opening reception was filled with people from all nations - a true reflection of Vancouver. The good news of Fukushima through this art also brought a joy to Japanese Canadian community.

Rev. Shihoko Warren read Scripture: Colossians 1:15-20.
The Son is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. For in him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or power or rulers or authorities; all things have been created through him and for him. 
He is before all things, and in him all things hold together. And he is the head of the body, the church; he is the beginning and the firstborn from among the dead, so that in everything he might have the supremacy. 
For God was pleased to have all his fullness dwell in him and through him to reconcile to himself all things, whether things on earth or things in heaven, by making peace through his blood, shed on the cross.   

We offered a prayer for Fukushima and for reconciling all things to God. With this prayer and opening of the exhibit, we launched a 8 week long prayer campaign among the local churches in Vancouver. Please find more about this weekly prayer on our prayer website: http://art4fukushima.com/pray.
