But his friends left him as soon as all his money was gone No!
Starving, he got a job feeding pigs. He was so hungry, he wanted to eat the pigs' food!
I want to go back to see my father. • He decided to go back to his father. He didn't feel worthy to be called his father's son anymore. He only hoped that he might be able to get a job as one of his father's servants.
Dad, sorry, I have sinned against heaven and you. . So he started the long journey back home
As he approached the house, his father saw him in the distance.
Oh..my son. • His father was so happy to see him that he ran to meet his son.
Oh, my dear, you are alive. • The young man told his father how sorry he was for everything he had done wrong. He asked if he could work as a servant at the house because he felt like he didn't deserve to be his son anymore. Sorry!

Let’s have a big party! • His father called for a big party to celebrate his son's safe return.
I heard the music playing. • Meanwhile, as the older son returned from working in the fields all day, he heard the music and noise from the party.
What’s happened? • He asked one of the servants what was going on. The servant explained that they were celebrating his younger brother's return home.
You never had a party for me! • The older brother became angry. So his father came out to talk to him. • "I've worked so hard for you all these years. And you never had a party for me!"
My son, you are always with me. Everything I have is yours. • His father told him: "Son, you will always be with me, and everything I have is yours. But it's important that we celebrate your brother's return, because he was lost, and now he is found."
