Our Bible story today was about 12 men called the disciples. Jesus told all of the men to follow Him. And they did! They became Jesus’ closest friends and they followed Jesus everywhere He went. Everyone can follow Jesus, including you!

Prayer: Dear God, thank You that (your child’s name) gets to hear about how much Jesus loves him/her. Thank You that he/she gets to hear that Jesus wants to be his/her friend forever.
