This delightful coloring page celebrates the traditional Orthodox holiday of the Meeting of the Lord. On February 2nd, Jesus was presented to the Temple in Jerusalem and was 40 days old. His parents, Mary and Joseph, offered a sacrifice of two doves in His name. For a unique background effect, why not use blue and white to represent the waves of the Sea of Galilee where Mary and Joseph were traveling, and incorporate traditional Russian Orthodox gold and red into the picture. If you'd like a bit of extra drama, give the sky a yellow and pink gradient to capture the light of the moment and make the dove's sacrifice stand out. If you'd like to keep the scene simple, you could use shades of green and blue to represent the plants and water around Jesus. The possibilities are endless, so no matter how you choose to color it, you can't go wrong!
