More about these coloring pages

Every time I pull out the St Columba coloring page Sunday school resource, my students get excited. The illustrations show Columba in various scenes: sharing the Gospel and teaching people about Jesus. I remember last week, my third graders were particularly drawn to the image of St. Columba in a boat, which sparked a discussion about faith and courage. As they colored, I shared Isaiah 52:7, 'How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of those who bring good news.' It really brought the lesson to life. We also talked about how Columba dedicated his life to spreading God's love, which helped them understand the importance of sharing their own faith. I keep these pages in my classroom binder, and they always engage my students. They love to take them home and show their families what they learned about this great saint.
