Art Exhibit on Display in Our Lobby!
Visit Our Art Gallery in-person on: Sundays 12:15 - 1:15pm or Schedule an Appointment
When Reverend Kem E. Monk retired as a United Methodist pastor,
she laid down her sermons and took up paint, collage, and mixed media.
Instead of preaching words, she began to paint them. Her art is
her sermon—an interpretation of God’s word, whether drawn
from Scripture or the lessons of daily life.
The name “Hallelujah Art ~ Spiritual Art ~” comes from a place of both
love and loss. Rev. Kem's beloved dog, Hallelujah, was her constant
companion for 13½ years. Hallelujah was always by her side as she worked,
until Hallelujah's tragic passing in August 2025. Losing Hallelujah devastated
Rev. Ken, yet the memories lives on in every piece of artwork.
In memory, Hallelujah Art ~ Spiritual Art ~ was born.
The collage “Hallelujah” is the very first work of Hallelujah Art—a beginning shaped
by grief, love, faith, and hope. It is Rev. Kem's prayer that these pieces not
only speak to her own journey, but also invite others into reflection, comfort,
and the presence of God.
Each of the artwork is for sale with a portion of the proceeds being donated to our Center. If interested in purchasing a painting, please email us at admin@unityofsussex.org or call The Center at (973) 383 6277.
When you purchase a ShopRite Gift Card from our Center, you receive the full value of your purchase amount and The Center receives a donation.
To purchase your gift cards, see a Board of Trustee Member after Sunday Service, email admin@unityofsussex.org or call The Center at (973) 383 6277.
