Nehemiah 3 · Grade 2
Everyone Builds
Read the Story
The wall of the city was broken. So the people got to work. The priests built a gate.
Each group took a part. Some built near their own homes. Men from other towns came to help. A man and his girls built too.
Some big men would not help. But lots of people did. They built the wall one part at a time. God's work is for all of us.
Memory Verse
“Above the horse gate, the priests made repairs, everyone across from his own house.”
