Tabgha is the name of a site on the northwestern shore of the Sea of Galilee where Jesus appeared after his resurrection (John 21), and where he multiplied loaves and fishes to feed the crowds gathered to hear him teach.
The name, Tabgha, has its roots in the Greek term for “seven springs" (see it on a map here). The place used to be the site of a Palestinian village and was important from ancient times because of its fresh water; trees that grew near the springs gave shade. It is not hard to imagine why Jesus might have gathered followers here to teach them for a day.
The present church preserves within some of its walls remains of a church that stood here in the late 300s. When that earlier church was excavated in 1936, archeologists discovered a mosaic around a block of naked limestone. The mosaic depicted two fish and a basket of loaves. Ancient accounts identify the block of limestone as the place where Jesus broke and blessed the bread that was multiplied and shared with the crowds. The new, modern church preserves this rock below its altar (pictured above).
It is difficult to tell if this was actually the exact place where Jesus multiplied the loaves, but it is clear that at least since 425, Christians have thought so.
The modern church replicates the style of the Byzantine church that would have been built after St. Helen’s visit to the Holy Land, even using some of the same stones from the original church. The only imagery in the church is found in two icons stationed near the sanctuary—one of Mary and one of Jesus.
The story of the multiplication of the loaves is the only miracle (aside from Jesus’ resurrection) that is recorded in all four Gospels. The story has captured the imagination of the Christian community because it reveals a deep truth about our lives of faith: God feeds us abundantly

Church of the Multiplication is a church in Tabgha (ancient Heptapegon) on the shore of the Sea of Galilee.
The earliest building at Tabgha was a small chapel built in the 4th century A.D. (around 350).
The mosaic of the fish and loaves is laid next to a large rock, which has caused some New Testament scholars to speculate that the builders of the original church believed that Jesus stood on this rock when he blessed the fish and loaves just before the feeding of the crowd who had come to hear him.

The Saturday challenge for 8th June is to interpret ‘multiple’. And here, tugging the forelock at the SSC theme in two very different ways, is a multiple image of a gadget with multiple uses. The multiple image is a stack of three separate photos with their backgrounds removed, showing the gadget emerging from its pouch in layer one, opened as just pliers in the middle layer, and with all its multiple tools on display on top.
When I first read the challenge I thought of a ‘Swiss Army’ knife, but that idea was overtaken by my recollecting that somewhere or other I had this handy multi-tool, an impulse purchase from some years back. In fact it’s not all that handy, because of course you can only use one tool at a time, so you’re forever having to close one tool in order to open another one; whereas I’ve got plenty of separate tools which do the same things but are more practical. (I have never managed to work out whether one of the tools on the gadget was for getting stones out of horses’ hooves, but then again, when do I ever meet a horse with a stone in its hoof?) But the tool has finally come into its own this week, because it’s found a rôle as my SSC prop!

Tabgha (Arabic: الطابغة, al-Tabigha; Hebrew: עין שבע, Ein Sheva which means "spring of seven") is an area situated on the north-western shore of the Sea of Galilee in Israel. It is traditionally accepted as the place of the miracle of the multiplication of the loaves and fishes (Mark 6:30–46) and the fourth resurrection appearance of Jesus (John 21:1–24) after his Crucifixion. Between the Late Muslim period and 1948, it was the site of a Palestinian Arab village. source: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tabgha
