Clear Water of Galilee

The clear water at the shore of Galilee is seen along with a statue outside a Church. The Church of Peter's Primacy is at the place where Jesus changed Simon's name to Peter, Rock, the one on whom He would build His church. A beautiful sculpture is seen among the trees. Inside, the Church is built around a hug symbolic rock. A great day was off to a wonderful start.

Galilee

Here we see Galilee near the place where Jesus walked on water, along with a view of the scene of the great Sermon on the Mount. "Blessed are the Peacemakers . . . "
