Man Helping Fallen Jesus Carry the Heavy Cross

Man Helping Fallen Jesus Carry the Heavy Cross printable coloring page

Coloring guide

A bearded man in a flowing cloak lifts one end of a large wooden cross while a figure in a crown of thorns kneels and leans forward beneath its weight. A shirtless man with curly hair strides in from the right, bending forward beside the long beam. Behind them, a crowd of onlookers watches, including soldiers in helmets and robes, with tall spears pointing upward. The ground is a rocky hillside drawn with simple sketchy lines. The outlines are clean, so there is plenty of room for different skin tones, fabric colors, and shading on the cloaks. For a Good Friday lesson, you could ask kids to color the cross wood grain and then talk about how one person stepped in to help carry the load. Print it free for church class or quiet home time.
