FROM UGANDA ... We use the Mafa pictures as Sunday School teaching aids. I recently explained to the children that the image of Jesus as tall, long-haired, blond and bearded owes more to Flemish and German painters than it does to our Lord's actual appearance. Artists portray Jesus and the events of his life as they imagine him, and the Vie de Jesus Mafa does a wonderfull job of imagining Jesus in an African setting. Thank you for your good work. We and the children really appreciate it. |
