As part of our Set Sail Creative Project (SSCP) we asked people to create in response to the theme of ‘Rest’, and this passage from Matthew:
“Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”
Here are the responses we had submitted from all around the world!
To start off is an excellent track from Ezekiel Songs. Why not hit play on this one while you check out the artwork below!
