Printing tips

The story behind the craft

Bible passage: Acts 13–28

Paul and his companions travel to share the message of Jesus, meeting both welcome and opposition. They teach in different settings, support new communities and continue the work through journeys, conversations and letters.

Main takeaway: Paul’s mission involves patient teaching and relationships across many places.

As you arrange the scene

Discuss the characters and setting before placing the cut-out pieces on the background.

Locate the place or episode represented rather than assuming every journey is shown. Notice companions and local people alongside Paul.

Younger learners can name the people and describe their positions. Older learners can explain the moment being represented and distinguish the passage from choices made in the illustration.

Questions to explore

  • Who worked alongside Paul?
  • How did different places respond?
  • Why does patient explanation matter when a message is unfamiliar?

Common questions

What files are included in this download?

The download is a 2-page PDF: PaulPreachestotheNations.pdf. This is the English edition. You print the files yourself; physical supplies are not included.

What do children cut and arrange?

The two-page PDF provides the illustrated scene/background and separate cut-out pieces. Colour the pieces, cut them out and try their positions on the background before gluing the final scene. For a Bible reading to accompany this activity, use Acts 13–28.

Which pages should I print, and at what size?

The original PDF pages are A4 landscape. PaulPreachestotheNations.pdf: print the pages you want to use for each learner or group. Print single-sided. On US Letter paper, select Letter and Fit or shrink to the printable area; the originals are not separate Letter-sized files.

What supplies and preparation does this need?

Paper, colouring pencils, scissors and glue. An adult can prepare smaller cut-outs so children can concentrate on choosing where each piece belongs.
