More about these coloring pages
When teaching about the Stations of the Cross, I often remind my students that Jesus carried His cross for us. Each of the six images in this coloring page captures a moment from that journey. Just last week, my 8-year-old daughter and I colored one together, discussing how Jesus’ love led Him to the cross. The kids can visualize stories like Simon helping Jesus carry the cross, which makes the lesson more engaging. These pages are great for my Sunday school binder, allowing kids to reflect on the meaning behind each station while they color. As they work, I'll ask them to think about how Jesus said, 'Father, forgive them' (Luke 23:34) as a way to connect the lesson to their own lives.
