Here I am working in my (small) studio at home during the first summer of the project in 2010.  I was so thrilled to find myself the following three summers at my new place of employment, Trinity-Pawling School, in NY (Below).  I now had the luxury to spread out with all 12 door panels simultaneously! 

I painted “Education” before I had come across the concept of the seven spheres, and perhaps it was symbolic of the strategic importance education holds for sustainable change in Haiti.  The “Seven Spheres” or “Seven Mountains” of influence spring from a miraculous meeting in 1975 between Bill Bright (Founder of Campus Crusade) and Loren Cunningham (Founder of Youth With A Mission).  Both men brought the same list of seven things to a meeting, having each independently received a revelation of from the Lord that lasting social change must address Education, Government, Religion, Business, Family, Media, & Arts and Entertainment.  They were stunned to realize the other had excitedly brought the exact same list of seven, and this blueprint of empowering agents of change in each sphere became a pivotal strategy for their international ministries.

May the children of Haiti come to know who they really are and what they were born to become!
