John chapter 6, verses 5 to 15.

Philip answered him,

Here's a boy with five small barley loaves and two small fish,

but how far will they go among so many?

Jesus said,

Have the people sit down.

There was plenty of grass in that place, and they sat down.

About 5,000 men were there Jesus then took

the loaves gave thanks and distributed to those who were seated as much as they wanted

he did the same with the fish when they had all had enough to eat he said to his

disciples gather the pieces that are left over, let nothing be wasted.
