More about these coloring pages

Sometimes, 'I have come that they may have life' (John 10:10) reminds us of St. John Bosco's mission. My son and I enjoyed coloring these pages together last Saturday afternoon. We talked about how St. John Bosco dedicated his life to helping children. One image shows him teaching kids, which sparked a discussion about our own favorite teachers. The set has six pages, including one where he plays with a group of children. We used crayons and markers, and my son loved brightening up his favorite parts. It’s a wonderful way to connect while having fun. Plus, it’s a free printable, which makes it easy to share with friends from church.
