As Jesus walked by the sea of Galilee he saw two brothers
Simon who is called Peter, and Andrew his brother
Casting their nets into the sea, for they were fishermen
Jesus said, "Follow me. and I will make you fish for people"
Immediately they left their nets and followed him
Going on from there, Jesus saw two other brothers
James the son of Zebedee, and his brother John, sitting in a boat with their father Zebedee
They were mending their nets
Jesus called to them
Immediately they left their nets, and their father, and followed him
Just as a little test I have tried writing out one of the stories our small but keen group learned at a workshop with Pam Faro on Saturday. This woman is amazing. Her website says she "will travel most anywhere to help you experience the power of storytelling!" Based in USA, she's visiting Australia for a Network of Biblical Storytellers conference in Victoria in a couple of weeks. Middle of school holidays was not the ideal time for a workshop, but ten keen participants grew in faith and understanding under her gentle encouraging and skillful guidance.
