More about these coloring pages
‘An angel of the Lord came down from heaven and, going to the tomb, rolled back the stone.’ (Matthew 28:2) I remember last week when my third graders colored their Stone Rolled Away pages. They were especially drawn to the angel and the empty tomb. Watching them ask questions about the resurrection filled my heart with joy. These pages include images of the angel, the empty tomb, and the moment of discovery. Each picture helps reinforce the Easter story in a fun, engaging way. We used crayons and colored pencils, and I encouraged them to share what they thought the stone rolling away meant. It was a delightful time of creativity and learning. I keep a few copies in my Sunday school binder for future lessons, as the kids love revisiting this story. I can’t wait to see how they color the angel in the next class!
