3rd - I need a holy picture that doesn’t focus on one person.  It can be heaven, people praying, anything holy and that you found beautiful. 

I need you to find online 3 pictures of the above.  Write a very short blurb (1-3 sentences) about each Saint or Holy person describing why they were chosen as Saints. Write as if someone is reading about the person who’s never heard of them before. 

On the general holy pictures just say why you chose the said picture and what it conveys to you. 

You will not be printing anything off.  I will be incorporating your info into a slideshow presentation.  You need to send me your work either by email to dpapesh @ steliz.net or you can give it to me on a flash drive.  Make sure you use Microsoft Word for PC work or Pages if on a Mac.

This will be due on Nov. 1st in honor of All Saints Day.  25 points will go on the 2nd marking period but you can turn it in at any time.
