These pictures, part of the exhibition "Bible in the Arts - Shapes and Colours" by a young German graphic artist Cornelia Steinfeld, adorned the walls of the Abbey of Michaelsberg, the site of the General Assembly. The pictures illustrate biblical stories, using simple shapes, mostly circles, painted in seven colours (white, the colour of God).

In the order of the images: Creation, God creates man, Expulsion from Paradise, Moses' mission, David and Goliath, The Good Shepherd, The birth of Jesus, The healing of the blind man, The miraculous multiplication of the loaves, The Good Samaritan, Jesus and the children, The Last Supper, Jesus before his accusers, The death on the cross.
