More about these Bible coloring pages
One sunny Monday, my 5-year-old class gathered around the tables buzzing with excitement. We talked about how Elijah prayed on Mt Carmel and how God answered with fire. The kids were amazed when I read the part where 'Then the fire of the LORD fell.' (1 Kings 18:38). Each of the 6 coloring pages captures different momentsβlike Elijah's prayer and the great fire from heaven. After coloring, we discussed how God listens to us just like He listened to Elijah. It was heartwarming to see their faces light up as they connected the story to their own prayers. We even set aside time to share our own little prayers with each other.
