Read the Story

Jesus was eating at a house. A woman came with a jar of very costly perfume.

She broke the jar and poured the perfume on Jesus' head. Some people grumbled. They said she wasted the money.

But Jesus said, "Leave her alone." He said she had done a good thing for Him. People all over the world would hear what she did!

Memory Verse

“While he was at Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper, as he sat at the table, a woman came having an alabaster jar of ointment of pure nard—very costly. She broke the jar and poured it over his head.”

Mark 14:3 (WEB)
