ALPHA AND
OMEGA
Of the Father’s love
begotten ere the worlds began to be,
he is Alpha and the
Omega, he the source, the ending he
of the things that
are, that have been, and that future years shall see,
evermore and
evermore.
These vestments,
inspired by the words of this chant attributed to Marcus Aurelius, bear
witness to the Christian belief that the Triune God reigns over every time
and every season.
The
spiral design for this chasuble and stole was executed in rayon,
synthetic, and metallic fabrics using piecing and appliqué techniques. The pieces were embellished with improvisational stitching and bead work.
