Jesus' Zoo

An illustration done for my mum to be used at SACM Sunday School big group session on the Sunday after Christmas 2010 :3

The animals were used as discussion starters to represent different areas of need in the students' lives that they want to grow in. The picture was used to encourage them that this is commendable that they would like to grow in their area of needs, and that they would need to connect with Jesus to do that. He loves them and would give them the necessary strength they need if they connect to him.
