Find Jesus by r0ck c4ndy

December 4th, 2007 4:03 PM

INSTRUCTIONS: Find a Jesus.

I wasn't going to do this task.
I didn't feel inspired and while I am absolutely a soul-searcher, this wasn't my kind of hunt.
But, as happens for a lucky few, I didn't find Jesus, Jesus found me.

Last weekend I was in NY. (side note: Any NYers out there, let me know. I wanted to task while I actually had a little time for fun, but I don't know any SF0ers out there and I was feeling social).
A group of 8 of us went to the 5Spot, a totally awesome soul food restaurant. After dinner a friend at the end of the table went out to smoke. A man ambled up with a drink in a hand, and sat down:

Me: Hi, how's it going.

Him: good, good.

My friend Oded leans over and offers his hand to shake.

Oded: Hey man, my names Oded, how's it going?

Guy: hey. My name's Jesus.

Me: Really? (delighted)

Jesus: That's the name my mother gave me.

Me: Excellent.

Jesus: You all so lovely, I wish I could just take your picture.

Me: How 'bout I take your picture instead?

Jesus: Great! I want my picture taken with that guy! (points to Oded).

Picture is taken!

Jesus: Now I want my picture taken with you! (points to me)

Picture is taken!

Jesus left us shortly after that at the urging of our waitress. Thank you Jesus, for finding me. It was brief but memorable.

That is awesome.

While I am not in NY, I am an East coaster so if you're ever close to Delaware (since it's a rare occasion people find themselves in Delaware) drop me a line.
