St. Luke, one of the four Gospel writers, is known as the patron saint of artists, doctors, and writers. His Gospel beautifully emphasizes Christ’s mercy and love, making his feast day (October 18th) a wonderful opportunity to reflect on his life and contributions to our faith. To help children engage with his story, I’ve created a free St. Luke coloring page that you can download and print!
Who Was St. Luke?
St. Luke was a physician and a companion of St. Paul. He wrote both the Gospel of Luke and the Acts of the Apostles, giving us an incredible account of Christ’s life and the early Church. His writings highlight Jesus’ compassion, healing, and teachings, making him an inspiring figure for children to learn about.

Reflection:
After reading, ask the children:
- Who was the man who helped the injured person, and why was his kindness surprising?
- How did the priest and the Levite act when they saw the injured man? What does this teach us about being kind?
- What are some ways we can be like the Good Samaritan in our everyday lives?
- Why is it important to help people who are in need?
- How do you think the injured man felt when the Good Samaritan helped him? How can we make others feel better when they are in need?
