The Widow’s Mites
Jesus went to the temple in Jerusalem. He watched as people gave money for the church. Many rich people gave a lot of money.
A poor widow gave two pieces of money called mites. It was not very much money, but it was all the money she had.
Jesus saw the widow and told the disciples what she had done.
He said the rich people had given a greater amount of money than she had, but they had more to give.
The widow had no more money. She gave all that she had. She gave more to God than all the rich people.
