About this Bible story

After the flood, Noah sent out a dove to see if the waters had receded. When it returned, 'There in its beak was a freshly plucked olive leaf!' (Genesis 8:11). This was a sign of hope and peace for Noah and his family.

β€œThere in its beak was a freshly plucked olive leaf!”

β€” Genesis 8:11 (NIV)

How to Use These Coloring Pages

During the coloring session, ask your students, 'How do you think Noah felt when he saw the olive leaf?' Highlight the moment when the dove brought back hope, which can lead to a discussion about trusting God's promises. Make sure to have plenty of crayons available, as coloring can take 20-30 minutes.

More about these coloring pages

A soft rustling of crayons filled the classroom last Thursday as my 8-year-old students excitedly colored their olive branches. These pages remind them of God's promise after the flood. In one of the images, the dove returns to Noah with a sign of hopeβ€”'There in its beak was a freshly plucked olive leaf!' (Genesis 8:11). As they color, I encourage them to think about what peace means in their lives. The six images included are simple yet detailed, making it easy for them to express their creativity while connecting with the story of Noah. I keep a printed copy in my Sunday school binder to use during the lesson about God's faithfulness. It’s a beautiful way to discuss the importance of peace and hope.
