CHIGNECTO Presbytery, Maritime Conference
'United for Peace' Display
As I looked toward the back of the church hall; I rushed over to see the bright blue doves. They were so beautiful, up to this point most everyone is making 'white peace doves'. (click on the picture for a closer look.)
Artist’s Statement - This hand-dyed batik paper was designed for the United Church peace dove project. I choose the color blue to represent the sky. The circles of dots represent growth and strength. Four layers of dye and three layers of hot beeswax are used to build this pattern up from an original white piece of Japanese ori masa paper.

A sheet is $25.00 and you can cut 63 paper doves from one sheet. Each dove may be sold for $1.00 resulting in a profit of $38.00 per sheet. Wonderful and unique fund raising idea.
The blue doves are beautiful. Placed on a white twig tree with white mini lights they are lovely decorations.
Chignecto Presbytery, Maritime Conference, continues to sell cookies at their meetings with all the profits going to United for Peace. A donation of $65.00 will be forwarded by Betty Jean to the United for Peace Campaign from the sale of 44 dozen cookies prepared by a neighbourhood bakery, The Cook Nook, Richibucto. Three pastoral charges bought 30 dozen cookies and will be selling cookies at a $2.00/dozen mark-up raising another $60.00 for the campaign. Thank you for your efforts to raise awareness about peace.
