5 RICH WOMEN
Some people have nice things in their home, but never share them. Do you have any nice things you could share?
Joanna was rich and had a lot of money. Her husband had an important job being in charge of Prince Herod’s palace.
One day her little boy almost died. But Jesus just spoke a few words, and her little boy was completely well that very minute.
So Joanna decided to give Jesus some money for food and supplies so he and his twelve apostles could travel many places to tell people God loves them.
Salome was rich and had a lot of money. Her husband owned a fishing business. They had a big house and everything.
Jesus chose two of her sons ~ James and John ~ to be his special apostles and lead the new kingdom of God when it came.
So, Salome decided to give Jesus money sometimes too, to help pay for his travels.
Suzanna was rich and had a lot of money. She not only wanted to give Jesus money, but she also wanted to travel with him and his apostles to help out.
Then, when Jesus preached and women decided to follow his good ways, she could give them advice. Joanna and Salome decided to go with Suzanna.
