More about these coloring pages

While organizing my kids' art supplies last Saturday, I found crayons scattered everywhere. My 5-year-old was busy coloring a St Christopher coloring page, fully immersed in the story behind this saint. 'Help others' (Galatians 6:2) is a great lesson we can learn from St Christopher. There are six images featuring him helping travelers cross a river, which sparked a discussion on kindness. It’s amazing how a simple coloring page can lead to such meaningful conversations. I plan to use these pages during our next Sunday school session. Kids can color while we talk about how St Christopher helped people and how we can do the same in our lives. It's a great way to introduce the idea of service and compassion, especially since July 25 is his feast day. This coloring activity will keep them engaged and help them remember the story.
