The kids were excited last Tuesday while we colored our Garden of Gethsemane pages. They loved bringing to life the moment when Jesus prayed, showing how He felt with His friends nearby. As they colored, I reminded them of Jesus' words, 'Not my will, but yours be done.' (Luke 22:42). Each of the 6 images helps tell the story of this important moment with bright colors and simple designs. It's wonderful to see how they connect with the Bible story while having fun.
