Relationally Healthy / Inclusive Community (Green)

This panel references Jesus washing the disciples feet in regards to being relationally healthy. Our faith is practical. The panel focus is on the foot; an unattractive, dirty body part. Feet that would have been covered in dirt, animal dung & calluses. Jesus demonstrates his love, kindness & humility by being a servant to his disciples (friends), including Judas'. Washing of feet was a task of a slave or house servant and Jesus sets an example: "I have set you an example that you should do as I have done for you. Very truly I tell you, no servant is greater than his master, nor is a messenger greater than the one who sent him. Now that you know these things, you will be blessed if you do them."
