Religious Easter coloring pages

18 free religious Easter coloring pages for Sunday school: the empty tomb, the risen Jesus, Palm Sunday, the cross with lilies, the Lamb of God and Bible scenes.

For Christians, Easter is the day Jesus rose from the dead, three days after he died on the cross on Good Friday. In 2027 Palm Sunday falls on March 21 and Easter Sunday on March 28. These 18 religious Easter coloring pages tell that story for Sunday school, church and home: Jesus entering Jerusalem, the women and the angel at the empty tomb, the risen Jesus, and Christian symbols of the holiday like the cross, the lily, the Lamb of God and the Easter candle.

The Easter story from the Bible

5 pages

Five pages follow the story of Easter morning and the risen Jesus. Three women walk to the tomb at dawn carrying spices, find the stone rolled away and meet an angel sitting on it. The tomb stands empty with lilies in front, and the risen Jesus stands before it with open arms. One more page shows Jesus sitting in the grass with three children, a scene loved in children's ministry. Two more pictures of Jesus at Easter are in the Easter collection: Jesus Easter coloring pages and Easter coloring pages religious.

Palm Sunday coloring pages

5 pages

Palm Sunday, a week before Easter, remembers the day Jesus rode into Jerusalem on a donkey while the crowd waved palm branches and spread their cloaks on the road, shouting Hosanna. In 2027 it falls on March 21. These pages show Jesus on the donkey with two children waving palms, the donkey standing on a road of palm branches and cloaks at the city gate, a girl and a boy waving their palm leaves, two palm branches crossed in front of a wooden cross and the word HOSANNA between two palms. Many churches hand out palm leaves on this day, so the pages pair well with a real palm cross.

Easter cross, church, candle and Lamb of God

8 pages

The cross is the main Christian symbol of Easter. Here it stands on a hill with lilies, doves and the rising sun, under the words He Is Risen, inside a heart of flowers for the youngest kids, next to a butterfly coming out of its chrysalis as a picture of new life, and filled with lilies inside a flower frame for older kids and adults. Three more symbols are seen in church at Easter: a small church with a bell tower on Easter Sunday morning, a tall Easter candle that is lit at the Easter Vigil, and the Lamb of God with a halo and a banner with a cross. Grown-ups can find a stained glass cross with lilies in the Easter coloring pages for adults.

About these religious Easter coloring pages

These sheets work well in Sunday school lessons, at children's church or during Holy Week at home: read the Bible story first, then let kids color the scene. The pictures show no words except He Is Risen, so teachers can add a Bible verse on the back. For the fun side of the holiday, the Easter bunny coloring pages have bunnies with eggs and baskets, and the Easter coloring pages have eggs, chicks and lambs.
