This beautifully painted Wings of Hope butterfly sculpture is located at Stillwater's First Presbyterian Church, in the landscaped area south of the Fellowship Hall.
The front side of the butterfly is painted primarily blue, with orange stripes, similar to a sun, with a white dove in the middle, carrying an olive branch. The back side is a dark color, with white stars of varying sizes. The base of the sculpture is squiggly alternating lines of dark and light blue. Both the dove and the Star of Bethlehem, depicted in the sculpture, are mentioned in the plaque as symbols of God's covenant.
