EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by Eric Piper, we are transported back to the year 1970, where a young girl named Jane Curtis leads her school friends in a heartfelt prayer. The innocence and purity of childhood radiate from their faces as they gather together, seeking solace and hope for their beloved village of Stewkley. The backdrop to this poignant moment is the unsettling news of the Roskill Commissions Plan for London's third airport. As whispers spread through the community about potential changes that could impact their way of life, these children find comfort in coming together to pray for salvation. Jane Curtis stands at the forefront, her small hands clasped tightly in prayer. Surrounded by her fellow classmates, she embodies strength beyond her years as she guides them through this act of faith. Their unity is palpable; each child fervently hoping that their collective prayers will be heard and answered. This snapshot captures not only a moment frozen in time but also serves as a testament to the power of belief and resilience within youth. It reminds us all that even amidst uncertainty and fear, there is solace to be found when we come together with unwavering faith. Eric Piper's skillful composition allows us to witness this intimate scene unfold before our eyes—a reminder that even during times of adversity, hope can blossom within the hearts of children who dare to dream and believe in miracles yet unseen.
