2027 Columban Art Calendar – Jesus the Good Shepherd
"I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep." (John 10:11)
The cover image of our 2027 Columban Art Calendar portrays Jesus as the Good Shepherd, gently carrying a lost sheep upon his shoulders. It is a timeless reminder of God's compassion, mercy and unwavering love for each one of us.
The sheep represents all who have ever felt lost, burdened or alone. Rather than abandoning it, the shepherd carries it home. His staff symbolises guidance, protection and hope. The peaceful landscape reflects the promise that, even in difficult times, we are never forgotten.
This message lies at the heart of the Columban mission. Around the world, Columban missionaries walk alongside communities, accompany those on the margins, care for creation, and bring hope to those facing poverty, displacement and hardship.
By ordering your 2027 Columban Art Calendar, you are doing more than receiving a beautiful calendar for your home. Your generous donation helps support the missionary work of the Columbans and enables us to continue bringing faith, compassion and practical assistance to people in need.
