Echo of Joy

Beautiful hospital

Tuesday, December 21, 2010

I accompanied one of my pastors on a visit to St. Mary's in Rochester last week. It's part of the Mayo system that dominates downtown Rochester. (Photos from another building here.)

St. Mary's by itself is a massive building (I think I heard it has over 18 miles of hallways), so I was glad I wasn't on my own! Check out a few pictures, and better panoramic views at their site.














One of my great-grandmothers used to clean at St. Mary's, and she lived nearby, so I felt a tiny personal connection with the place.

As usual (in my limited experience, anyway), the visit itself was an honor. It is a privilege to proclaim the gospel to someone who is so hungry to hear it, and a joy to hear it proclaimed right back to you by the same person!
