January 30th
This week's Bible story comes from Luke 5 & 6
in our Beginners Bible
Helpers and Friends
Jesus
knew that he had much work to do. He wanted to have some good friends
who could help Him. One day Jesus was walking by the Sea of Galilee. He
saw two boats there. Peter and Andrew were fishing from one boat.
James and John were mending a net in the other boat. Jesus called to
them, "Come and follow me." And they did.
Later,
Jesus passed by a tax office. There was a man there named Matthew.
Matthew's job was to take the taxes, the money the people paid to the
king. Jesus looked at Matthew.
"Follow
me," Jesus said. Matthew got up and followed Jesus. Jesus asked twelve
men to be his helpers. Besides Peter, Andrew, James, John, and Matthew,
he called Philip, Bartholomew, Simon Thaddaeus and Judas.
