Awakening Tree | Greenbelt 2005 'Awakening Tree' centres on the story of Elijah in 1 Kings 19. Elijah runs away to the desert and sits under a tree in depression. God sends angels to revive him with food and drink, and gives him a new perspective. In the background a woman is painting a picture of the tree in the desert during the service. Around the central lights are white pipecleaners. Take one or two and make something that represents you to God right now. The final result. The setting of the room, with the tree banners defining the central space. The painting at the end of the service.
