The Woman at the Well

A Bible story for kids from John 4:1–42. Day 194 of 365.

Jesus was tired and sat by a well in Samaria. A woman came to get water in the hot middle of the day.

Jesus asked her for a drink. She was surprised, because Jews and Samaritans weren't friends. Jesus said, “I can give you living water. You'll never be thirsty again!”

Jesus knew everything about her, and He still loved her. She ran to town and told everyone, “Come meet a man who told me everything I ever did! Could this be the Savior?”

Key Verse
