“If you ever visit Noble Guest House in Oradea, Romania there is a gate on the lawn that leads to nowhere; there is no fence. It was bitterly cold and frost beaded on the black metal gate to nowhere. When I asked about the gate I was given the following explanation: "We thought we were going to build more houses for orphan families on that ground. We had already purchased the gate and rather than putting it into storage we decided to "plant-it." Today, clematis plants are weaving vines in and out of the "Gate to Nowhere.”

Jerry Taylor and his wife Sylvia have participated in many trips with Remember the Children. Over the years, Jerry’s skill of photography has been a gift as he observed and captured moments that added a depth of meaning and understanding. We are thankful for the generous donation of 12 of Jerry’s pieces to raise funds for orphan care and church planting in Romania and Tanzania. 11 of the 12 are framed between sheets of glass with open edging and attached wire. The dimensions for all pieces are 17’’ by 23’’ including the mat and frame.

Jerry is a retired Licensed Clinical Marriage and Family Therapist and a former educator and administrator in both public and private schools. He also taught Photography in Harford Community College's Continuing Education Program.

He currently shoots with a Nikon D850 and assorted Nikon lenses; he also uses the Nikon Coolpix P1000 super zoom.
