Jesus did this, the first of his signs, in Cana of Galilee. ?~John 2:11
The church in Riene is just down the road from Cana. The worship service on a Sunday morning feels familiar: a small but fervent congregation with a good mix of ages inside a brick building. It feels a lot like my Presbyterian church back in Maryland. Up front is a stained-glass window of the Holy Family. I notice that the child Jesus is blond-haired and blue-eyed. Rather puzzling to find this, here in Palestine where hair and eyes are dark-colored.
How do you picture Jesus?
Prayer: Lord, may I see your face and not a reflection of my own.
