Tree of Life

St. Philip’s Anglican Church, Vancouver, B.C., 1994  

The Tree of Life is an ancient symbol of God’s presence (Gen. 2: 9,10; Rev. 22: 1,2). It is a fruitful and life giving presence – in this instance a golden shining presence filled with birds and fruits, hope and sustenance. The tree is sustained by, and indeed springs from, the River of the Water of Life.
