Ann has a great love for the story of the healing of the paralytic. It was a component of her church welfare program training. Like Christ, we need to live outside ourselves more- to be sensitive to the needs around us we might be able to fill. Ann has a way of taking simple shots that capture a lot of meaning.

The Bethesda pools are an extensive archeological site. It's interesting that the baths were apparently a popular place of pagan healing. The man healed by Christ was waiting for his chance to bathe in waters, but others kept moving in front of him. I love that Christ just simply told him to rise and walk- no need for complications.



Colin didn't want to look at the camera because there was a kitty prowling arounds the ruins.
