At a wedding in Cana, Galilee, Jesus performs his first miracle when called upon by his mother Mary. The wedding hosts had run out of wine for their guests. Jesus instructs the servants to fill large stone jars with water, and then turns the water into wine. The master of ceremonies is surprised by the high quality of the wine, not realizing it was Jesus who provided it. This miracle revealed Jesus' divine glory and his disciples put their faith in him.
