More about these coloring pages

During our recent lesson, the kids were captivated by the Agony in the Garden coloring page. As they colored, I encouraged them to think about the moment when Jesus prayed so earnestly that 'His sweat was like drops of blood' (Luke 22:44). One child, Anna, was especially drawn to the image of Jesus with the angel comforting Him. We spent time discussing how hard it must have been for Him to face what was coming. With 6 images, including Jesus praying and the sleeping disciples, this free printable really helps kids connect with the story. I keep a few copies in my binder for when we study Easter. It's a meaningful, hands-on way to engage with Jesus' sacrifice.
