This page provides access to photos that were taken during the week of "Celebrate Jesus" activities in the Leesburg District. Most of the pictures were taken at the Wildwood UMC where "photographers" Ken Vickery and Phill Brown were assigned to a family team. We hope that members of the Celebrate Jesus team and of Wildwood UMC will find that these pictures help them to recall some pleasant memories of the week.

The pictures are grouped by the day of the week. Each of the items below provide access to an "index page" for the photos for one day. Click on the photo icon at the beginning of a line to open the index page. Each day's page contains small copies of the photos for the day. Click on a small photo to open a view of the full size picture. Use your browser's "back" control to return to the index page. Icons at the bottom of the page can be used to move backward and forward through the index pages without having to return to this page. If you have the RealPlayer software on your PC, clicking on the "Celebrate Jesus" heading on an index page will open a "slide show" of pictures on the page.

Individual photos can be saved to your hard drive by clicking on a small photo on an index page to view the full picture and then using your browser's "File", "Save As" option (or right click on the photo and use the "Save Picture as" option) to save the photo. All pictures are in standard JPEG format.
