Art by Ashley Adair at Clayton Center for the Arts, Blackberry Farms Gallery, displaying in January 2013 A reception will be held in the gallery on Fri., Jan. 25 from 6 until 8 p.m as part of Last Friday Art Walk.

"This work explores the confusion, uncertainty and simple delights of operating within the traditionally feminine roles of homemaker and motherhood," Addair wrote in her artist's statement. "Both the content and process seek to quietly protest the meaninglessness our society attaches to domesticity.
The method of making the work is born out of the rhythms of care taking, where the notion of production is largely intangible; visual progress is made in brief bits of time while daily chores and routines become a part of the art-making process," Addair continued. "I hope this lends an expression of interconnectedness to the work: a compassionate view that nothing independently exists but is a part of an intricate web of life."

Did you know that more than 3 million people are enslaved in human trafficking and that it is one of the highest yielding organized crimes in the world--generating profits of $9 billion in the United States and $27.8 billion worldwide? For Lent, why not consider a small group focusing on the issue of stopping human trafficking? Beginning on February 6 through March 13 (excluding February 13), we will meet on Wednesday evenings at the home of Deb and Dan Scaperoth, which is about 1.5 miles from campus. We will use Christine Caine's book and workbook called "Undaunted: Daring to do What God Calls You to Do" Caine began the A21(abolishing sex trafficking in the 21st century) ministry a few years ago and her organization has had some success in rescuing people and bringing some of the traffickers to justice. Here is a blurb about her book: "Christine shows how God rescued her from a life in which she was unnamed, unwanted and unqualified. She overcame abuse, abandonment, fears and other challenges to go on a mission of adventure, fueled by faith and filled with love and courage...Christine offers life-transforming insights about how not only to overcome the trials, wrong turns, and often painful circumstances we all experience, but also how to grow from these experiences and be equipped and empowered to help others." We will also look at excerpts from the Pulitizer prize winning book "Half the Sky" by Nicholas Kristof and his wife, Sheryl Wudunn. If you are interested, please email me (Deb) at dscapero@utk.edu.
The Tarwaters have graciously allowed us to distribute the video of Mary Tarwater's Celebration of Life service at Cedar Springs on December 31st. If you would like a copy, they are free and being held in the church office. Email Katie to get a copy or to give to someone who needs one. It is a beautiful service filled with the power of the Almighty, as well as the many who loved her and were so deeply touched by her life.
Please continue to pray for the Tarwaters and for Debbie Gayk as she struggles with debilitating back problems.
