The Sycamore Tree

Just in case you are like me and did not know exactly what a Sycamore tree looks like, this post is for you.  Don brought me a Sycamore leaf and seed pod.

Is Chaplain Don looking for Zaccheus? 

Chaplain Don Baker chatting on the phone. 

The Sycamore Tree makes a really good shade tree and it is my understanding that they grow pretty fast, also. 



Now, we just need to find some Sycamore seedlings to plant at the chapel.

Luke 19

There was a man there named Zacchaeus. He was the chief tax collector in the region, and he had become very rich. 

He tried to get a look at Jesus, but he was too short to see over the crowd. 

So he ran ahead and climbed a SYCAMORE tree beside the road, for Jesus was going to pass that way.

When Jesus came by, he looked up at Zacchaeus and called him by name. “Zacchaeus!” he said.“Quick, come down! I must be a guest in your home today.”
