From the meeting of his arms he flowed south for forty leagues before he found his tributaries; and before he found the sea he was twice as long as Sirion; though less wide and full, for more rain fell in Hithlum and Dorthonion, whence Sirion drew his waters, than in the east.
They were clad in green in spring and summer, and the sound of their singing could be heard even across the waters of Gelion; wherefore the Noldor named that country Lindon.

 At MacDowell:   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
“Juan Gelion” re-imagines Christ’s New Testament journey for a modern audience, but instead of wandering through the desert, Juan makes his way from the tropics of South America to the seat of world power: Washington D.C. Throughout the journey, he confronts hypocrites, performs miracles, and seeks to reconnect Christianity with its radical roots.
Still, politics isn’t the only “theater” of reckoning in “Juan Gelion.” Like Christ, Orlando’s Gelion is a man more concerned with reaching individual people, a man whose radical nature — and danger — springs from how he inspires the people he meets one by one.
“I have this scene in ‘Juan Gelion’ where Juan is being stoned for his beliefs, and in the middle of it, he catches a stone and turns it into bread and asks the crowd ‘Is it a stone or is it bread?’ And I think that’s the real question for religion and us.

 San Francisco Bay Guardian | Arts and Entertainment
In playwright Dominic Orlando's Juan Gelion Dances for the Sun, Latin American peasant Juan Gelion (a charismatic Johnny Moreno) abandons a promising career in the church to found a new one — or is it the old one reborn?
But he renounces material wealth, goes about healing the sick — beginning with beloved cousin Mariana (Juliet Tanner), who lies dying from a botched abortion — and collects a band of unlikely followers, including his cranky atheist brother (Hector Osorio) and a chipper but mentally unstable American (Alexandra Creighton).
These four asses of the apocalypse, convinced their rich, war-making selves constitute God's chosen, latch onto Juan Gelion as the false messiah, or adversary, prophesied in Revelations.
