Living Water & En Christo: New Stole Collections for a Sacred Season

Living Water & En Christo: New Clergy Stoles for a Sacred Season

Marking 34 years of liturgical artistry with movement, colour, and Spirit.

The Summer Solstice invites us to pause on the longest day of the year and honour the light that surrounds and sustains us. It’s a threshold moment: a turning of the Earth, a shift in rhythm, a sacred pause to reflect on our relationship with creation.

As the world leans into light, we’re invited to do the same.

To honour this new Season of Creation within the church, we are delighted to introduce two new stole designs—Living Water and En Christo—each one rooted in story, scripture, and the beauty of the Earth. Together, they mark a milestone: 34 years of creating liturgical art that speaks not just to the church year, but to the living world around us.

💧 Living Water: A Flow of Spirit and Justice

"Living Water" has long been a powerful image. One of quenching, cleansing, and sustaining. In John 4, Jesus meets the Samaritan woman and speaks of water that becomes a spring within us:

“…a spring of water gushing up to eternal life.”

This collection evokes that sacred flow—the water of baptism, the rivers of justice, the spiritual nourishment we long for in uncertain times. As climate disruptions increase, the imagery of water becomes all the more vital: a prayer for renewal, a call to action, a gift of grace.

Each piece in the Living Water line is stitched meticulously with care, designed to remind the wearer that we are called to flow with Spirit and stand in solidarity with all creation.

✨ En Christo: Living in the Light

“En Christo”—In Christ. The words are familiar, but their depth continues to unfold.

This collection began with a moment of stillness and a spiral into scriptural meaning:

 In Christ = In Love = In Light = In Human Form = In Spirit.

 To live En Christo is to live within Christ and to let Christ live within us—embodied, visible, and deeply felt.

While each of these are designed for the Season of Creation they are both part of year-round lines. Simple yet powerful, they invite reflection on how we live, move, and find our being in the sacred. They are wearable prayers, an invitation to let your ministry be an extension of Christ’s presence in the world.

🌿 Summer Light, Sacred Work

As we cross the threshold of the solstice and look toward the Season of Creation each autumn, may we embody our calling with beauty and intention.

Let this season be one of radiance, reflection, and renewal. Not only in nature, but in your worship space as well.
