Acts:9:36-39
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Now there was at Joppa a certain disciple named Tabitha ,
which by interpretation is called Dorcas :
this woman was full of good works and almsdeeds which she did .
*
And it came to pass in those days ,
that she was sick ,
and died :
whom when they had washed ,
they laid her in an upper chamber .
*
And forasmuch as Lydda was nigh to Joppa ,
and the disciples had heard that Peter was there ,
they sent unto him two men ,
desiring him that he would not delay to come to them .
*
Then Peter arose and went with them .
When he was come ,
they brought him into the upper chamber :
and all the widows stood by him weeping ,
and shewing the coats and garments which Dorcas made ,
while she was with them .
