The Holy Communion Symbols


Description of Coloring Page: Christians take communion world-wide to both share in and remember the death and resurrection of Jesus, the items used during communion: wheat/wafer represents the bread of life = Jesus flesh torn apart at the cross for us, grapes = the blood of Christ which must be shed to cover human sin and is drunk from a chalice which harkens back to the kiddush cup i.e. "sanctification" shared by dedicated Jews. All of these beautiful things serve to keep us in community with each other and with God, Jesus and the Spirit of God.

Christ In The Temple as A Child


Description of Coloring Page: Jesus approximately 12 years of age, sits among the rabbi and priests in the temple, halo, room interior 
 
The scripture reference of this coloring page is Luke 2:41-52 (Good News Bible)

       "Every year the parents of Jesus went to Jerusalem for the Passover Festival. When Jesus was twelve years old, they went to the festival as usual. When the festival was over, they started back home, but the boy Jesus stayed in Jerusalem. His parents did not know this; they thought that he was with the group, so they traveled a whole day and then started looking for him among their relatives and friends. They did not fine him, so they went back to Jerusalem looking for him. On the third day they found him in the Temple, sitting with the Jewish teachers, listening to them and asking questions. All who heard him were amazed at his intelligent answers. His parents were astonished when they saw him, and his mother said to him, "Son, why have you done this to us? Your father and I have been terribly worried trying to find you." 
       He answered them, "Why did you have to look for me? Didn't you know that I had to be in my Father's house?" But they did not understand his answer.
       So Jesus went back with them to Nazareth, where he was obedient to them. His mother treasured all these things in her heart. Jesus grew both in body and in wisdom, gaining favor with God and men."
