About this Bible story

He distributed to those who were seated.

How to Use These Coloring Pages

While the kids color, ask them, 'What does it mean to share?' Focus on the moment Jesus blessed the bread in John 6:11. Encourage them to think about times they've shared food or helped others. Gather supplies like crayons and paper plates for a snack break afterward, tying the lesson together with a real-life sharing experience.

More about these Bible coloring pages

When my kids colored the Feeding the 5000 Jesus Blessing Bread coloring page, they loved the image of Jesus breaking the bread. 'He distributed to those who were seated' (John 6:11) really stood out to them. It sparked a conversation about sharing and kindness. My 9-year-old said it reminded him of how we share food during family gatherings. With six different images, including Jesus and the disciples, it’s a great way to discuss this important Bible story. We used our favorite gel pens, and I set a timer for 30 minutes, which made it perfect for quiet time. Plus, I plan to use these pages for our Sunday school class next week, so we can all color together and talk about the miracle of feeding so many with so little.
