A New Addition to the ACU Campus - Jacobs' Dream

A new addition can be seen on the campus of Abilene Christian University. Jacob's Dream is a beautiful presentation in stone based on the Biblical story of the dream that Jacob had about his ascent to heaven by way of a ladder.




The 40 foot sculpture is best viewed from multiple angles as there are a number of hidden treasures within the art work, such as the view of a cross if you stand in a specific location. The sculpture also contains a baptismal pool.

September 9, 2006

Spent the day at the soccer complex


Josh and Jon-Jon are playing for the Green Dragons.








Joshua played three quarters of the game and was very tired at the end.









It was a little too much for Jon-Jon.






Later that evening, we went to see the newly dedicated Jacob's Dream sculpture at Abilene Christian University. "A very beautiful and inspiring site," according to Karen. I couldn't agree more.





















To find out more on the Jacob's Dream sculture, read the following article.
