Print this Lesson Mary Magdalene
Luke 8:2, 3; Matthew 27:55-61 John20
I am Mary. My home is in a place called Mandela. This is why I am called Mary Magdalene, Just like you are called a Tennessean because you live in Tennessee or Texan if you live in Texas.

Before I met Jesus I was very sick. I had seven different illnesses. It would be just like you might have mumps, measles, pneumonia, chicken pox, whooping cough and the flu all at one time!
Can you even imagine how very bad I felt?

When Jesus saw my pain he cured me of everything! I knew right then that he was not just a man, because no one had even been able to cure even one of my sicknesses!

From then on, I followed Jesus every where and listened to all of his teachings and watched him do many miracles!

I was there…. when they hung him on the cross to die. I remember every word he spoke! It was a horrible sight to see someone you knew had never done anything bad to suffer so much!

I was there…..when they put him in the tomb.

I was there…..when the angel of God rolled away the stone from the tomb!

I was there…..when Jesus came out of the tomb alive! He spoke to me and told me not to cry. Can you imagine how very surprised and happy I was! He told me to tell the others. I ran to tell them, "He is alive!!!!" "Jesus is alive!!!"

Peter and the others couldn't believe me until they went and saw him with their own eyes.

I am so blessed to have been able to follow Jesus and see the great things he has done!

Jesus is just as alive today as when he was here on earth as a man!

You can follow Jesus….Just as I am by reading your Bible and hearing about him from your bible teachers and your parents!

Now I would like to ask you some questions about my story.
