A Religious Education Experience

A retired school teacher told this story
to the writer of this page.

Jennifer was an outgoing happy girl, helpful at home, friendly at school. Everybody liked her.
One day she was riding her bike to the shop for her mother
when she fell and cut her hand.
Three days later Jennifer was in hospital with tetanus.
The doctors said she was seriously ill.
She couldn’t move or speak. Jennifer was very sick.
Her school friends wanted to help, but they were not allowed to visit her.

She was much too sick.

The school teacher suggested that all the class pray for her

at 8 o’clock that night.
That night at three minutes to eight o’clock Jennifer died.

Her school friends didn’t know

so they waited for the eight o’clock time

and prayed for their friend.

At the hospital at that time exactly

......... everyone was shocked

Jennifer was alive again!

The doctor couldn’t explain it.

To day Jennifer is quite well and grown up but her small finger is still bent.

It reminds her of the power of prayer

from her caring school friends.
