Lent & Easter Resources for your family

Do you celebrate Lent with your church family? Our church is Protestant but loosely adopts some of the church calendar, so we celebrate Advent in anticipation of Christmas and Lent in anticipation of, and preparation for, Easter.

I thought I’d share a few resources that you might find helpful:
These coloring pages are all found free here on the blog.
I’ve collected more coloring pages and printables on this Pinterest page.
This printable Lent art journal with readings and space to draw would work for both kids and adults. I like the idea.
My “Good News Story” card set comes with full color cards and black and white coloring pages and walks you through the Gospel story with selected verses from the beginning to Revelation. I think it would work well for Lent. You can get printed cards HERE or the printable file HERE (and just printable coloring pages HERE or the  printed coloring book HERE). The printable version comes in Spanish too.
How do you celebrate Lent with your family?  Any resources I should add to my list?
*I’m so happy for you to enjoy my coloring pages and printables for your personal (not commercial) use! Use for Bible studies, church groups or events, and Sunday school classes are all fine! If you’re in doubt, I’m happy to answer any questions. All artwork and photos are copyright Marydean Draws. If you share this, thank you (!), and as a courtesy,  please link back to this post and not the PDF file.

Welcome to the blog!

I’m Mary and I’m glad you’re here! Since 2014, I’ve been sharing encouraging words, fun Bible printables, and accessible art activities.

let’s talk about . . .

I learned so much from this study of Luke 4:1-13 a I learned so much from this study of Luke 4:1-13 and the testing of Jesus in the wilderness (as I do every study through this incredible book). I thought this painting by Briton Rivière captures the spiritual, mental and physical anguish of the moment for Jesus, a torment that would continue until the end of his life. I added Hebrews 2:18 to the coloring page for this study: "Because he suffered when he was tempted, he is able to help those who are tempted." 

So many treasures from this story, but something new for me was the idea that Jesus  faced temptation not just by rotely quoting Scripture--even Satan could do that! It was deeper than that. Each of the Scriptures he quoted placed him in the story of the people of Israel and their failures as God delivered them from Egypt. He faced temptation by understanding the larger story of what God was doing in the world and what he was called to do. Where Israel had faltered, he would be faithful. This is what allowed him to see through the temptations he faced. I find that so encouraging. 

You can read the full study on my Marydean Draws Substack page. Paid subscribers can download the printable study and coloring page.

I've got openings available in all my daytime Fall I've got openings available in all my daytime Fall classes @friendlycityclay in Harrisonburg:
*Two color mixing workshops. This one was created for those who can't commit to the full introduction to watercolor class. It's a great basic introduction to creating color with confidence! 
*We are offering homeschool art classes for the first time! They are a mix of clay (taught by Laura-Paige) and 2-D art (taught by me)
*Intro to Watercolor for all the essential basics
*Building your Watercolor Skills: Experiments in Learning to Play. This one will be lots of play with color, shape, and more abstract, playful use of watercolor.
