I was asked to design a new hero graphic for the compassion sunday service for this year.

 

The direction I was given was to include a global aspect while also communicating the work with children.

Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty.”

― Albert Einstein

**ParenTeen Challenge**

As a parent of a teen, and as a teen, there are many a day when you will need to wrap yourself in compassion and give yourself a break. I encourage you to do so whenever the need arises. And my hope for you is that your relationship with your teen and/or with your parent can be a source of strength and support.
