Acts 12:13

The Rescue of Peter

12And when he had realized this, he went to the house of Mary the mother of John, also called Mark, where many people had gathered together and were praying.13He knocked at the outer gate, and a servant girl named Rhoda came to answer it.14When she recognized Peter’s voice, she was so overjoyed that she forgot to open the gate, but ran inside and announced, “Peter is standing at the gate!”
