The Church of the Loaves and Fishes is also called the Church of the Multiplication of the Loaves and Fishes. The site is located at Tabgha, southwest of Capernaum, facing the Sea of Galilee.
14 When He went ashore,
He saw a large crowd, and felt compassion for them and healed their sick.
15 When it was evening,
the disciples came to Him and said, “This place is desolate and the hour is
already late; so send the crowds away, that they may go into the villages and
buy food for themselves.”
16 But Jesus said to
them, “They do not need to go away; you give them something to eat!”
17 They said to Him, “We
have here only five loaves and two fish.”
18 And He said, “Bring
them here to Me.”
19 Ordering the people
to sit down on the grass, He took the five loaves and the two fish, and looking
up toward heaven, He blessed the food,
and breaking the loaves He gave them to the disciples, and the disciples gave them to the crowds,
20 and they all ate and
were satisfied. They picked up what was left over of the broken pieces, twelve
full baskets.
21 There were about five
thousand men who ate, besides women and children. (Matthew 14: 14-21, NASB 95)
