Before you begin on this assignment, as a group discuss the following questions:

How would you describe your personal image of Jesus?  Be specific!  For instance, what skin tone did Jesus have?  What  color of eyes and hair did he have? What about Mary? Share this with your group.

As a group, come up with a group's image of Jesus and Mary.

You must submit your group name, individual roles, and the collective image of Jesus and Mary to S. Gabrielle by OCTOBER 20th!

 

As a group, you will decide upon your collective image of Jesus and Mary.  Taking this information, your group will be divided into 4 team members.  Each member will be responsible for the activities and research described. Then, as a group, you will synthesize your research and create a PowerPoint presentation. You will use your PowerPoint program to guide you in your presentation.   Your presentation has to include the following points:

Your group's image of Jesus and Mary
