Art Exhibit on Display in Our Lobby!

Visit Our Art Gallery in-person on: Sundays 12:15 - 1:15pm or Schedule an Appointment

Artwork by Reverend Kem E. Monk

 

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.
