CHILDREN'S CORNER


Preparation for Holy Week and Easter - children's colouring pictures.

The Prodigal Son

Once there was a son who asked his father for his share of the inheritance. He went away with the money to a foreign land and spent it all. When he got hungry he decided to work looking after pigs but even then he hadn’t enough to eat. He decided to go home to his father. His father was waiting for him with his arms out waiting to hug him and welcome home. Our Father in Heaven is like that, whenever we go off and do things that are displeasing to Him, he waits for us to come back to him. When we are sorry he is ready to give us a big hug! Coming up to Easter it would be good for us to prepare our hearts for this big day by going to confession and telling our Heavenly Father that we are sorry for all our sins. 

The Miraculous Catch

After the Resurrection, Peter decided to go fishing with some of the disciples. They fished all night and caught nothing. When day came, they saw someone on the shore who said to them put out your nets to the other side. They didn’t know that it was Jesus. But they obeyed him and when they put out their nets, they caught so many fish that they couldn’t bring the net into land. Then John the beloved disciple recognized Jesus and said “it is the Lord”. 

The Cock Crew

 In this picture we see St Peter crying while Jesus is carrying his cross behind, and there is a cock      crowing. At the last supper, Jesus told Peter that before the cock crowed Peter would have denied Jesus three times. This is exactly what happened.  When Jesus was taken prisoner, Peter pretended to all those who asked him that he didn’t know Jesus, because he was afraid. When Peter heard the cock crow he started to cry because he was so sorry for having denied Jesus.
