For many years, you all have sent us your incredible works of visual art along with your poems and essays. In this new era of Quest, we would like to feature visual art more regularly, knowing that the full range of creative expression cannot be captured in words alone. If you love drawing or painting, please send us copies of your work for inclusion in future issues of Quest!
If you are a free world member of the CLF and have access to email, please email us at clf@clfuu.org. If you are currently incarcerated, you can mail a copy of your work to The Church of the Larger Fellowship (CLF), 24 Farnsworth Street, Boston MA 02210. Thank you for sharing your many creative gifts with our beloved community.

[This is] my rendition of our symbol. I have been wanting to render it this way for several years, but apparently the time was now. I personalized it, as you can see, with a Zen Buddhist flower (the Ensō) and with the heart under the flame. If by chance, my version has offended anybody, I meant no harm. Just wanted to share this art, how UU and my individual path has helped me.
Please share with all who find such work inspiring, uplifting and thought-provoking. Please, place it somewhere as a constant reminder that we are a “flame in the midst of fire, motivated by Love within this mysterious circle of life.”
