More about these Bible coloring pages

During our last quarter's lesson, the kids loved coloring Bartholomew in action. One image shows him joyfully meeting Jesus, while another captures the moment he declares, 'Rabbi, you are the Son of God.' (John 1:49) I remember how my 8-year-old daughter smiled while she colored. It brought the Bible story to life. With 6 engaging images, this coloring page not only makes the lesson fun but also helps kids visualize Bartholomew's important role as an apostle. I keep a printed copy in my Sunday school binder, ready for when we talk about the apostles. These pages make a great companion for any lesson about Jesus’ close followers.
