Church of the Primacy of Peter(彼得首牧堂)

Church of the Primacy of Peter(彼得首牧堂)

Date: April 6, 2013

The Church of the Primacy of Peter is locate at Tabgha by the shore of Sea of Galilee.
The word "primacy" connotes the sence when Jesus commissioned the Apostle Peter to feed the sheep of Jesus.  Thus the Apostle Peter is the first disciple to receive the pastoral ministry.
Inside the church, there is a rock exposed before the altar and this rock is labelled in latin "Mensa Christi," which means "Table of Christ." There is a disputable tradition that believes Jesus was having breakfast with His disciples here and this is also the place that Jesus commanded Peter to feed His sheep (John 21:1-22).
