I participate on the new Church Leadership Network. Someone there posted this comment about the "widow's mite" banner. Let's get the conversation going? What do you think. I am asking the quilters from Lion's Head to get in on the discussion because they are the talented artists who created these works...
These are beautiful banners! Over the years I have often heard bits of news about Lions Head. It must be a vibrant congregation.

For this banner, you seem to be combining two different stories in your title and description. One parable is Luke 15:8 about a woman who loses a coin and sweeps the house until she finds it. The other story is about a widow who is praised by Jesus because she gives all that she has to the poor (Mark 12 and Luke 21). I am curious - which story is it that is depicted in this banner? It looks like it is probably about the widow giving all she has.
