More about these Bible coloring pages

My daughter was fascinated as she colored the Ascension of Jesus coloring page last week. The image of Jesus rising into the clouds really sparked her imagination. As she filled in the colors, she asked, 'Mom, why did Jesus go up to heaven?' It's a great opportunity to talk about how He promised to be with us always. In the Bible, it says, 'He was taken up before their very eyes' (Acts 1:9), and this coloring page illustrates that moment beautifully. The set includes 6 pages, featuring different aspects of the story, like the disciples’ reactions and the clouds surrounding Jesus. I printed them out for our church group, and they were a hit! Kids loved sharing their colored pages and discussing what it means for Jesus to be in heaven. It's an easy way to bring the story to life for them.
