About this story

Jesus told us, 'I am the living bread that came down from heaven.' (John 6:51). A monstrance is a special vessel used in the Catholic Church to display the Eucharist. It's a beautiful way to remind us of Jesus' presence.

β€œI am the living bread that came down from heaven.”

β€” John 6:51 (NIV)

How to Use These Coloring Pages

As the kids color, ask them what they think the monstrance represents in their faith. Highlight how it holds the Eucharist and connects to Jesus' statement about being the living bread. You might need colored pencils or crayons, and plan to share a short prayer about the Eucharist afterward.

More about these coloring pages

During our Sunday school class, I pulled out the monstrance coloring page, and the kids were excited. One of my students, Emily, couldn't wait to color the beautiful design of the monstrance, while another, Jacob, pointed out the bread beside it. This page includes images that illustrate the significance of the Eucharist, reminding us of Jesus' words, 'I am the living bread that came down from heaven.' (John 6:51). The kids can see how the monstrance showcases the bread, making it special to our faith. These six images provide ample opportunity for creativity and learning. I also keep a printed copy in my Sunday school binder for easy reference. It's perfect for reinforcing our lesson on the Eucharist, especially when we discuss how the monstrance is used in Mass. I find that discussing these images while the kids color really helps them connect the dots between the art and the Bible story.
