This striking red stole, “Forged by the Spirit,” is a powerful expression of transformation, calling, and the living presence of God in the world. At the chest, a white descending dove is surrounded by flowing red flames, symbolizing the Holy Spirit.
The background fabric brings a unique depth to the design. Created from the Industrial Imprints collection by artist Leslie Tucker Jenison, the richly layered fabric evokes the look of weathered metal, collage, and surface markings shaped over time. Its deep red tones, flecked with hints of gold and shadow, suggest something forged, refined through pressure, heat, and transformation. In this context, the fabric becomes more than a backdrop; it tells its own story of formation, echoing the journey of those called into ministry.
Together, symbol and surface speak as one: the Spirit descends not into perfection, but into the real, textured, and often complex places of our lives. Worn for Pentecost, ordination, or installation, this stole proclaims a bold and hopeful truth. We are shaped, sent, and sustained by the fire of the Spirit.
The stole front is crafted from 100% cotton fabrics. The symbols are machine appliquéd. It is lined with the same fabric as the flames on the front and is interfaced for added body.
