NEW YORK, N.Y. — "You see a lot of graffiti in New York, but not quite like this!" a missionary for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints wrote about an art project aimed at helping share the LDS faith.

A group of missionaries serving in New York drew the giant chalk mural illustrating the Plan of Salvation at New York's Union Square last Friday, Oct. 18.

A video of the event is posted on YouTube and on the blog Reachmygospel.

"Usually, when you are teaching the Plan of Salvation, it's good to have a diagram of what it looks like," Elder Brad Witbeck wrote on the blog.

"Many people came with questions. We came with answers," it says.

"Here in New York, many people feel as if they are alone. But, we are all brothers and sisters, and we want everyone to know it," the blog states.

It called the drawing's message uplifting and said it "hits home for all of us."
