Sermon on the Mount

Dedication: September 19, 2004
Donor: Virginia LeCount
Artist: Debora Coombs

Upper Scene (Matthew 5, 6, 7): Disciples close protectively around Jesus as a great multitude gathers. People of all ages and from all nations wait hopefully, expectantly, to hear this wise man’s gentle yet powerful message of love and acceptance. Jesus is fully present, but we must lay aside preconceptions or prejudices and actively listen.

Lower Scene (John 4:7-26): Jesus and the Woman at the Well is a story of love transcending prejudice. Jesus meets a woman whose life is one of struggle and misdirection. He knows every detail and values her for who she is. She ponders, trying to accept this unconditional love.
