About this Bible story
After Jesus' resurrection, he spent time with his disciples. Then, as they watched, 'He was taken up before their very eyes' (Acts 1:9). This moment was crucial as it marked the end of his time on Earth and the beginning of their mission.
“He was taken up before their very eyes.”
How to Use These Coloring Pages
While the kids are coloring, ask them, 'What do you think the disciples felt when Jesus went up to heaven?' Focus on the moment from Acts 1:9 when he ascended, emphasizing how important it was for their faith. Have some colored pencils ready and maybe plan a short discussion afterward on how they can share Jesus' message.
