Photographer and longtime UniLu member Chris Pollari created these banners in 2018 in observance of the 500th anniversary of the Reformation. Each mosaic creates a large image using hundreds of small photographs of people from UniLu over the years. The large images are “A Voice Crying in the Wilderness” and “Organ Music” by Chris Pollari; “Bread Cross” by Birgitta Ralston; “Bell Tower with Spring Blossoms” by Chris Pollari; and “Flowing Water” by Chris Porter. Through these banners, Chris answers the question, “What is the church at 500?” “It is people.”
