Story Summary
     Jairus, a ruler at the synagogue, came to Jesus because his 12-year-old daughter was dying. He begged Jesus to come to his house and heal his daughter.
     As they walked to Jairus' house, the crowd pressed in on Jesus. In that crowd was a woman who had a disease that made her bleed for twelve years. No one had ever been able to help her. She touched Jesus and was healed instantly. Jesus asked, "Who touched me?" Peter said, "The crowd is all around you. They're the ones who touched you." But Jesus said, "I know that power has gone out from me.
     Reluctantly, the woman told Jesus that she had touched him. Jesus said, "Go in peace. Your faith has healed you."  
     On the way to Jairus' house, a messenger said that Jairus' daughter had died. Jesus said, "Just believe. She will be healed."
     At the house, Jesus went into the room with the girl, with her parents and his disciples Peter, James, and John. Jesus grabbed the little girl's hand and said, "Little girl, get up!" Immediately, her spirit returned and she got up. Her parents were amazed!
