PERRYSBURG – The Liturgical Arts Committee of Zoar Lutheran Church, corner of Sandusky and Indiana Ave.,
will create a temporary art installation during Lent titled "Let Us Ever Walk With Jesus."
This is the second year the group has created a seasonal art piece.
For the art display, members of the congregation and community have loaned a pair of shoes accompanied by
a short story describing where the shoes have taken them on their faith journey. Boots worn in
Afghanistan, embellished bridal heels, baby booties, Japanese geta, tennis shoes from a winning
basketball game, and flip flops from a Honduras mission trip are only a small sampling of the pairs
displayed.
The inspiration for the art piece came from the church’s 2014 Lenten theme "40 days of Walking"
which includes a daily wellness-walking program. Members are encouraged to walk 40 days during Lent,
using that time to pray and meditate on Christ’s journey and how it is reflected in daily life. The
"40 Days of Walking" will also be included in worship themes for Wednesday evening and weekend
services. Check the website for more information: www.zoarlutheran.com
"Let Us Ever Walk With Jesus" will be on display (Ash) Wednesday through April 13 and can be
viewed before or after services, or when the building is open.PERRYSBURG – The Liturgical Arts Committee
