Summary, John 10:1-22, Jesus is the Good Shepherd

At night sheep were gathered into the sheepfold to protect them from thieves, weather or wild animals. The shepherd often slept in the fold to protect the sheep. Just as a shepherd cares for his sheep, Jesus, the Good Shepherd cares for his flock.

The MSGC is a constantly evolving database. Not all the data that has been collected by volunteers has been sorted and entered. Not every building has been completely documented.

All images in the Index are either born-digital photographs of windows or buildings or are scans of slides, prints, or other published sources. These images have been provided by volunteers and the quality of the material varies widely.

If you have any questions, additions or corrections, or think you can provide better images and are willing to share them, please contact donald20@msu.edu
