Jason of Thessalonica

Okay kiddo, let me tell you about Jason of Thessalonica. Jason was a man who lived a long time ago in a place called Thessalonica, which is now part of Greece. He was a follower of a man named Jesus who taught people about love and kindness.

Jason was a leader of a group of people who also believed in Jesus and they would meet to learn more about his teachings and pray together. However, some people didn't like this and thought it was wrong. They wanted to stop Jason and his group from meeting. They thought that everyone should believe in the same things they did.

So, they arrested Jason and charged him with doing something bad. But, Jason was not guilty of anything bad, he was just following his beliefs and meeting with his friends to pray. Eventually, Jason was released and he went on to continue spreading the word of Jesus.

So, that's Jason of Thessalonica, a man who believed and followed the teachings of Jesus, and was persecuted for it, but still continued to spread the message of love and kindness.
