Dear Friend,
What a year! April 8, 2024, marks one year since Belóved Gallery’s grand opening. Over 20,000 guests from 15 countries have come through our doors, with thousands of you following online who hope to one day visit. Not only have each of you blessed our team personally with your friendship, but many of you have walked with us through all the milestones: our soft launch, grand opening weekend, book signings and interviews with Master Fine Artist Akiane Kramarik, the addition of three new masterpieces to Akiane: The Early Years, our inaugural Fall Affair, and Belóved Gala… all the while celebrating the 20th anniversary of the Prince of Peace painting!
Perhaps most surprising for our team has been the outpouring of hundreds of personal stories inspired by Akiane’s portrait of Jesus. The Prince of Peace painting bears witness to the countless interchanges between guests and the Holy Spirit. Belóved Gallery strives to be a garden where these sacred moments can land and take root.
Recently, Akiane visited Belóved Gallery and shared her reflections on our first year. As the creator of Prince of Peace and someone who has heard these inspired stories longer than anyone else, she had something profound to say about their impact. Watch Akiane’s interview to hear her thoughts on Belóved Gallery’s one-year anniversary.
On Good Friday last year, Alan Wraight visited Belóved Gallery with his wife, Nancy, and daughter, Christina, for the first time. Alan had recently survived a near-death experience, during which he entered the throne room of God and saw the face of Jesus. Watch his powerful testimony and hear what he had to say about seeing the Prince of Peace painting after such a life-altering event.
ON BELÓVED GALLERY
The experience was amazingly beautiful. My family of six drove for three hours just to see the beautiful face of Jesus. It was well worth it. To be looking at his face and gazing into his eyes I was touched to surrender myself to Him. I’m so glad my children were able to experience this moment with us. I pray that God always holds us by the hand so that we may all stay on the road to Him.

ON BELÓVED CAFÉ
Belóved cafe is gorgeous and understated. I spent all afternoon here, they have created a great, calming atmosphere to work in. Thoroughly recommend their lavender oat latte. The prices are very reasonable!
