8) TABGHA
Summary: This site is located minutes from Jesus’ adulthood hometown of Capernaum, both
along the shore of the Sea of Galilee. Tabgha has traditionally been accepted as the place
where Jesus performed the feeding of the five thousand. Also located within Tabgha is the
Church of the Primacy of Peter, which memorializes the traditional site of Peter’s reinstatement
by Jesus following Peter’s denial of Jesus prior to the crucifixion. Regardless of the historicity
of the site, it does offer a serene and moving place along the shore of the Sea of Galilee to
reflect upon the biblical narrative that is presented here.
Readings: Mark 6:30-44, John 21:1-24
