* Samuel was born to Elkanah and Hannah in the town of Ramah.

* Hannah was barren, but Samuel was born as an answer to Hannah's desperate prayer that God would give her a male child.

* In Hannah's prayer, she promised God that she would dedicate her son to the Lord.

|
* When Samuel was a young boy, Hannah sent him to help Eli the priest in the temple as she had promised in her prayer.
