Sunday 27th June – Jairus Daughter
Read: Mark 5:21 – 43
In this reading we see Jesus perform 2 miracles – the first one shows a woman’s great faith as she knew if she was able to simply touch Jesus’ cloak she would be healed. Jesus knew that something had happened but rather than be annoyed about it he told the woman her faith had made her well. While this was all happening Jesus was on his way to Jairus’ house – Jairus had come to Jesus to ask him to heal his daughter. A man came to Jairus and told him his daughter had already died and not to bother Jesus any more. Jesus told Jairus to not be afraid but to believe. When Jesus went to the house he took some of his disciples in with him and they saw lots of people crying because they believed the girl had died. Jesus told them she was not dead but rather asleep! Jesus, her parents and the disciples went into her room and Jesus took her by the hand and said ‘Little girl I say to you get up!’ The girl stood up immediately and began walking around. Everyone was amazed but Jesus told them not to tell everyone what had happened.
