We will read about Jesus Feeding the 5,000 and Jesus Walking on Water. We will discuss how Jesus helps and protects us each day. We will also discuss how instead of worrying, we should confidently put all our cares in God’s hands.
Memory: Psalm 50:15 Call upon me in the day of trouble; I will deliver you, and you shall glorify me.
