β€œGo, sell your possessions and give to the poor.”

β€” Matthew 19:21 (NIV)

More about these coloring pages

While teaching the story of St. Anthony this past Sunday, I noticed how engaged my students were when they colored the pages. One image shows him sharing food with the poor, which beautifully connects to the verse, 'Go, sell your possessions and give to the poor.' (Matthew 19:21). The kids especially enjoyed coloring his simple yet profound acts of kindness. We discussed how giving can be a part of our daily lives. The St Anthony Egypt coloring page includes six different scenes that capture his spirit of generosity and faith. One of my students, a bright seven-year-old named Lily, spent over half an hour carefully coloring each detail, bringing the story to life. This free printable is not only a fun activity but also a wonderful way to reinforce the lesson about helping others.
