Building a Movement ... One Stitch at a Time

Union Seminary's Poverty Initiative and the Worship Office hosted an exhibit of quilts during the latter part of the Fall 2008 semester. Quilts came from the Tutwiler Quilters in Tutwiler, MS and from Marks, MS, as well as from other friends of the Poverty Initiative. The chapel on October 29, 2008, allowed these quilts to be the primary texts for the day. We were invited to listen to their stitches and celebrate the stories woven from the scraps of life.
