Turn the page............. We're on a search to find God's Greatest Miracle! Mark 10:14-16

At a wedding dinner, Jesus' mother, Mary, asked Jesus to help a bride and groom who did not have enough wine for their guests. Jesus said it was not the time for him to do miracles. Mary kindly asked the waiter to fill jugs with water. Jesus then changed the water into very good wine. There was enough wine for everyone! This was a great miracle!!

For older child- This miracle shows how Jesus cares about all our concerns and how much Jesus loves his mother, Mary. It also shows how Mary can help us to get the things we pray for, if, and when they are good for us. This was Jesus' first miracle.

All the stories in this book are true. Jesus made all of these miracles really happen! John 2:1-11

Jesus did many things to make people happy. Jesus would just touch the eyes of people who had never been able to see. Then they could see everything like you and me. Which picture goes with this miracle?

Some people, in their whole life, had never heard anything. Jesus made their ears hear. Can you pick the right picture?

He cured crippled people so they could walk. Where is the crippled person? Do you think one of these must be God's Greatest Miracle?

Jesus cured many other people too. They had different kinds of sicknesses. He made all of them well and very happy.*

Luke 4:40, Matt 8:16 & 17, Mk 1:32-34, John 20:30,31 John 9:1-12, Mk. 7:32-37, Acts 14:8-10,

One day Jesus was in a boat with his friends. Jesus was very tired and fell asleep. A terrible storm came up. Big waves rocked the boat. The men were afraid. They woke Jesus up because they thought the boat was going to sink. Jesus stood up. He looked at the stormy waters. "Be quiet! Be still!", he said. Immediately the wind stopped blowing. The waters became very smooth and calm. Even the wind and the seas obey Jesus! Isn't Jesus wonderful,________________________________?!!

Matt 8:23-27 Mk 4:35-41 Luke 8:22-25
