NOTE:I hope you find humor (and not sacrilege) in our Mannequin Jesus vacation photographs. I realize that for some, displaying an image of the Lord Jesus Christ in anything but divine settings is cause for some discomfort and I apologize for any offense you may believe I have committed. The following is intended as having a little fun and I hope you will agree that I have not used the images in untoward ways.

Mannequin Jesus on Vacation

In the Summer of 2000, we took "Mannequin Jesus" with us on vacation. Many of us know that we should always take Jesus with us wherever we go, so we thought it might be a good idea to put some dimension on it. The following is an online photo album of "Mannequin Jesus on Vacation."

Behold I stand at the Door and Knock. Mannequin Jesus is ready for vacation.

"Come on in and sit for a while," we said. Mannequin Jesus sits in our living room.

While the rest of us get ready for our trip to Maine, Mannequin Jesus watches TV. Full House is on; one of his favorite shows.

Finally, we are all set to go. Mannequin Jesus gets belted in.

Mannequin Jesus relaxes and enjoys the time off. The sign above his head reads, "Relax, God is in Charge." Emily and Andrew wake up Mannequin Jesus from his nap to go have some fun.

Tired of walking on water, Jessica and Emily take Mannequin Jesus for a canoe ride. Off they go!
