Neon at Night: September 1967

With the summer drawing to a close last year, we knew that a lot of the neon signs would be extinguished for a long winter’s hibernation. So, my husband Ray and I drove around and took a few pictures of the neon signs in their busy season. These photos were taken on September 15th, 1967. (…Or, was that 2023?) We just got back into town over the Rio Grande bridge, so we started with the neon Wawa…

Date: 1650-1675

Medium: Oil on Canvas

Collection: National Museum in Warsaw, Warsaw, Poland

St. Peter Healing the Sick | Acts 5:15 (MSG)

"Through the work of the apostles, many God-signs were set up among the people, many wonderful things done. They all met regularly and in remarkable harmony on the Temple porch named after Solomon. But even though people admired them a lot, outsiders were wary about joining them. On the other hand, those who put their trust in the Master were added right and left, men and women both. They even carried the sick out into the streets and laid them on stretchers and bedrolls, hoping they would be touched by Peter’s shadow when he walked by. They came from the villages surrounding Jerusalem, throngs of them, bringing the sick and bedeviled. And they all were healed."
