Paul and Silas Were Rescued from Jail

An earthquake occurred, freeing the prisoners, and the jailer, who was responsible for all of them, almost took his own life. However, Paul and Silas reassured the jailer they were not going to escape. That night, the jailer and the members of his household became believers in Jesus. These lesson activities highlight this event in the early church.
