Circles @ Hoole, February 2005

Once upon a time, a very large CIRCLE appeared in Alexandra Park, Hoole. This event stimulated the idea of gathering creations by members of Hoole Baptist Church on the theme of '...the day the CIRCLE visited Hoole...' to share with the CIRCLE of friends and neighbours in Hoole and beyond. We believe that we are all created in the image of a Creator God, and we all have a need for 'creative' satisfaction and reward - regardless of whether we consider ourselves artistic. For most of us we are often too busy to take time to appreciate the creativity within the CENTRE of us, or to savour the beauty that en-CIRCLES us.
