I'm looking for St coloring pages for our VBS next week.. I've found 2 of the Saints but despite all my searches I haven't found any coloring pages for St. Joseph Cupertino and St. Maria Goretti.. I'm praying you wonderful women may be able to point me in the right direction, or may have created such coloring pages and might be willing to share them!

Thanks so much!

This picture of St Joseph is a public domain picture. It's not ideal but it could work.
It's small. Maybe kids could make their own prayer cards?

I traced one of St. Joseph of Cupertino but can't remember where I got it. It's not perfect, but it worked for our saint group. I'll see if dh can scan and upload tonight.

Beautiful Picture, Janette! Mary M. I had seen the coloring book, but we don't want to spend the money to buy a whole coloring book for each child, which is why I'm looking for a single coloring sheet. Thank you so much for pointing it out though :)

I didn't figure you would want to get a book per student. What I do with coloring books like that is use a picture as a guide. If I have something line drawn already, I can usually sketch something similar to use so it's not a copy.

So I did a little more digging and found this Maria Goretti coloring page. It's not my favorite style but will work if it is all you can find. Also found this illustration from someone working on a book. Wondered if you contacted her if she would give permission to print for a one time coloring page for your VBS. Worth a try - it's a lovely illustration and perfect for coloring.

I do like Mary -- using a line drawing as a guide. Though sometimes I lay a sheet of paper directly on a picture book page and just trace. That's probably copyright infringement but I don't worry about it when I'm just using it for my own kids. For a whole VBS would be a bit different.

The Joseph of Cupertino didn't come from a book. Don't know where I got that.
