This scarf is our first artist collaboration, created with Erin McAtee! The design is inspired by the Bible verse of John:15—the vine and the branches, pruning, and healing.
- The pelican is a Middle Ages symbol of Christ
- The blood pouring from the center of the pelican transform into vines stretching across the scarf
- The watercolor medium mimics blood and water flowing from Christ's heart
- The scarf includes handwritten parts of “Adoro Te Devote," the book of Isaiah, and the Liturgy of the Hours written by St. Thomas Aquinas: “Bring the tender tale true of the Pelican; Bathe me, Jesu Lord, in what Thy bosom ran blood whereof a single drop has power to win all the world forgiveness of its world of sin.”
“Pierced by Love, we receive; in turn we are invited to imitate this sacrifice. We share this nourishment through our fragile vessels, offering His love to the wounded – We are happy to be wounded by God who heals us as He wounds.” (Liturgy of the Hours)
