The Fountain of Faith
In these sculptured figures of the Fountain of Faith, Carl Milles, the great Swedish sculptor, has captured the warmth and tenderness, the joy and strength of supreme love in all human relationships.

Rising above the limits of this world, the beauty and hope of reunion after Life is here perpetuated in bronze to give us infinite peace. The Fountain of Faith makes us see that we do not walk along ... That we

All have a part in the bigger scheme of things.
Let these figures in this Fountain of Faith remind us that faith is not just
For holy days but that faith is for every day.
A quiet moment before this great work of art can make us draw closer
Together, and grant us tranquility
For this is the Fountain of Faith.

National Memorial Park

Be calmly glad, thine own true kindred seeing
In fire and storm -- in flowers with dew impearled:
Rejoice in thine imperishable being.
One with the essence of the boundless world.
constance naden
