Trust has been on the mind of the Rev. Kendall Shaw recently. The pastor of Gilead Ministry Center in Brunswick and in Jesup contemplated the idea in an essay on the topic for the local Painted Prayers: Prayers During a Pandemic exhibit at Glynn Visual Arts.

In Shaw’s piece, a part of an interactive initiative by local artist Randy Siegel, he details the challenges trust faces in times like these. His work joins one shared by the Rev. Tom Purdy, rector at Christ Church Frederica on St. Simons Island. Purdy explored the theme of gratitude in the days leading up to Thanksgiving. The public was then encouraged to take part by emailing in one word detailing what they were grateful for in their lives. Those words were used to make a graphic that now adorns the walls of GVA.
