Messenger

Several years ago I made many of these 5" dolls.
Most I gave away, keeping only this little island cutie
created in remembrance of a holiday in Rorotonga.
Thinking of creative ways
to "preach or publish" the Word,
I thought that perhaps
she could be utilized 
as a messenger of the Good News.
I loved designing her costume, twisting bronze wire
into arms, and sprinkling her feet with glitter.

Though she has no wings
I believe she can fly!

The word "army" can be translated "company"
meaning a mass of persons assembled for war or service.
Interestingly - the Hebrew is written in the feminine.
