More about these coloring pages

While my 6-year-old colored the page with St. Mark, she asked me who he was. I told her he was one of Jesus' disciples who wrote a Gospel. We talked about how he shared the message of Jesus with others. The page features St. Mark preaching and writing, which inspired her to think about how she can tell her friends about Jesus too. I reminded her of the importance of sharing God's love, just like St. Mark did. 'He wrote a Gospel' (Mark 1:1) is a great way to summarize his impact. It was exciting to see her engaged in the story while coloring, which made our conversation lively. Using these pages during our Sunday school lesson helped the kids remember St. Mark's contributions to our faith. Plus, the vibrant images bring the Bible story to life!
