New for 2012 ~ We’ve uploaded 5 new coloring pages for Father’s day. Two are designed for churches who want more ethnic diversity in the illustrations and 3 are coloring page cards saying “I love Daddy.”
Here are three original coloring sheets you can print out and use at church or home around Father’s Day.
These were created by Mandy Groce, a visual artist who reside in Kentucky. Based on previous feedback she wanted to give several choices to better fit the diverse families that make up many churches.
You can leave a comment below to express your appreciation or other thoughts on these coloring pages.
Directions: Each of these preview images link to the printer friendly PDF version of that picture. We also have uploaded the full size jpeg images for anyone who wants to modify these pages directly.
- The first coloring page shows a father reading a Bible while two children (boy & girl) watch over his shoulder. The text is a prayer that reads, “Thank you Lord, Fathers are a blessing!” You can download this file as a printable PDF file or as a JPEG image (453K file size).
- The second coloring sheet has a father hiking with his daughter following along. The text in this picture is a prayer which says, “Dear God, Thanks you for my Daddy!” You can download this file as a printable PDF file or as a JPEG image (534K file size).
- The third coloring page pictures only four different children (2 boys & 2 girls). There is not father displayed in this frame but the text says, “God is the best Father anyone can have!” This one will provide an option for children who have no dad in their life and may feel left out at father’s day. You can download this file as a printable PDF file or as a JPEG image (814K file size).
Father’s Day can be a good time to remind children that parents are a blessing from God. Care should be taken not to exclude kids who have lost their dads. Here is a recent article on our website that deals with those painful father’s day issues.

Thank you for these pages. We have some children in our church whose fathers are not so great and some who are fantastic. I appreciate being able to give the kids a choice of pictures to color.
just wanted to say a big thankyou for including material for those with absent fathers, it is hard to know how to celebrate Fathers Day for some kids, reminding them that they have a heavenly father who will always be there is so important….many thanks God Bless
Hi! Thank you very much for sharing these materials. This is very helpful in the ministry of God. Please continue to be a blessing to all the ministers of God out there. The Lord bless you and extend your borders!
Your website has been a tremendous blessing to my church’s Children’s Ministry. All of my seven volunteers search for lesson plans, art and craft and other activities. We thank God for you and the work you are doing for His honour and glory.
Many thanks Mandy for your wonderful works…they help us a lot…More artistic works and ideas from our loving Father and God.
