1. What form of medium(music, art or literature) allows you to best connect with Jesus and why?

The medium which allows me to become closer to Jesus is through art. I like to observe artworks of worship and praise and I enjoy the praise through the artwork I feel by observing religious images. Also it is a lot easier to express it through art as you can show visual context as people believe in the saying “Seeing is Believing” and our inner feelings through it.

2. Why has Jesus been portrayed in so many different ways throughout history.

Jesus has been portrayed in many ways because: People wanted to imagine a scene with Jesus and wanted to know what he looked like. To replicate events that happened in his life.

How is Jesus protrayed at Parramatta Marist.

At Marist, Jesus is shown on a crucifix in every classroom. He is also shown in some paintings in few rooms in the school. Jesus is also portrayed at our school by looking at the characteristics of students.
