Stoles

This design includes flowing waters, the fish, dove, and cross that relate to various events in the church year.

The primary motif of this stole is a descending white dove which settles over the shoulders in blessing. The colors and other patterns refer to baptismal waters.

I made this stole for the ordination of the Rev. Heidi King while I was an Andover Newton Theological School. It depicts the Holy Spirit as a dove settling around her shoulders. The lower part depicts the descent of fire and the waters of baptism.

This stole includes some of the themes in the first stole, with different color treatment.

I gave this stole to Rev. Robert Steiner, Pastor of Rondebosch United Church in Cape Town.
