More about these coloring pages

During our last Sunday school class, my 7-year-old loved coloring the image of the bishop placing his hands on the confirmands. It was a great opportunity to discuss how 'they placed their hands on them, and they received the Holy Spirit' (Acts 8:17). The images in this confirmation day bishop coloring page for kids highlight various parts of the sacrament, from the bishop's blessing to the joy on the children's faces. My son even asked why this moment was so important in our faith. As we colored, I encouraged them to think about what it means to share their faith with others. This free printable is not only a creative outlet but also a meaningful way to connect with the lesson. I plan to use these pages again for our upcoming church service, where the confirmation candidates will be presented. It’s a great way to help kids visualize the sacrament and its significance.
