Hope

There are 4 crosses that depict Christians’ individual walk in the manner of “carrying our own cross”. This means that each Christian would have his/her own cross to carry, in terms of “carrying” own challenges and uncertainties especially in this current pandemic situation, which affects the economy and livelihoods of many people. However, when we continue to focus on the cross that represents Jesus Christ who died for our sins, we can have hope and faith in our Abba Father.

 Livelihood 

The typewriter was used to be an important working instrument for people to make a decent livelihood. It was a simple and yet an powerful instrument that nobody can deny it’s usefulness and significance.
