Matthew 11 · Grade 2
Come to Me
Read the Story
John the Baptist was in prison. He sent friends to ask Jesus if He was the one God promised to send.
Jesus told them to tell John what they saw. Blind people could see. People who could not walk were walking. People heard the good news. Jesus is the one!
Then Jesus said that everyone who is tired can come to Him, and He will give them rest. Jesus is gentle and kind. We can always come to Him.
Memory Verse
““Come to me, all you who labor and are heavily burdened, and I will give you rest.”
