Presenting a Framed Desvaldi Serigraph to North Branch Reformed Church
To follow up from my last post, I’m sharing the video that my mom took of my presentation of a beautiful, limited-edition religious serigraph print depicting the Adoration of the Magi, by Italian contemporary artist Gabriela Desvaldi, to North Branch Reformed Church in my hometown of Bridgewater, New Jersey. As I explained before, I was more than glad to select and refurbish a vintage frame specially for this parish. It was especially wonderful for me to have been invited to join the worship service yesterday and then present the serigraph to the congregation. I and my mom—who has supported me throughout this initiative—were delighted to then mingle with various parishioners, including multiple acquaintances who we were pleasantly surprised to recognize from different areas of our community. Immediately afterward, the print was installed next to the door leading into the sanctuary, where churchgoers, clergy and visitors alike can appreciate its artistic quality and religious significance.
Please feel free to read about the backstory behind these serigraphs by Desvaldi in my previous post. They have undergone such an incredible journey, and North Branch Reformed Church—located no more than a few minutes from my home—became a proactive part of this ongoing story. It is quite amazing how just a small gesture of faith has made such a profound and positive impact on myself and others. None of us are too busy to offer a small act of kindness. The true gift is acknowledging people and connecting with them. Perhaps someone may even be inspired to take your example. Kindness is a gift that keeps on giving. 🖼️✝️🙏🏻
