Prevenient Grace, commission of seven paintings (lower right), Bemidji United Methodist Church, 2010

In 2010, Michael DeWitt completed Prevenient Grace, a permanent commission for seven paintings located in the sanctuary of the Bemidji (MN) United Methodist Church. Mike comments,  "...these paintings each and together are a prayer acknowledging the presence and influence of God in the creation; all life, our lives, and are metaphorical statements suggesting the various natures of the Divine Presence...the making of these paintings became personal meditation for me...they are a creative love story through the medium of oil paint on canvas, intended to work in harmony with the decorative and architectural elements already in place in the worship area..."
