Montebelluna

Montebelluna is a small town in Northeast Italy, 45 minutes from the Venice airport. It's definitely not a tourist destination one would consider when planning a trip. It doesn't have the religious history of Rome, a network of waterways like Venice, nor the tipping tower of Pisa; but what it lacks in sightseeing flair, it definitely makes up for with its warm, small-town charm.

I decided to go for a little walk today, and then it turned into a stroll, and eventually a journey across town. Here's some sights:

Mainstreet

A big building

A park

The center of a shopping square

A cafe
Town center

And lastly, Barbaro street

I attended the class on the book of Revelation today. It's known as one of the toughest reads in the Bible. In fact, some of the greatest church leaders of old neglected the book altogether. I wonder why? Just as Genesis tells us of our very creation, Revelation completes the story perfectly with our beautiful eternal ending.

The prophecy in Revelation is definitely tough to chew on, and not easily digested, but the Lord must have known we'd have a hard time with it as He says in 22:7 "And behold, I am coming soon. Blessed is the one who keeps the words of the prophecy of this book." Not only is this one of the few times the Lord Jesus speaks after his death and resurrection, but He offers us a special blessing if we challenge ourselves to study and heed these future events which are coming quickly. I see the students getting a lot out of this class.
