Priscilla and Aquila Crossword for Kids (Easy, Medium and Hard)

These free Priscilla and Aquila crossword puzzles come in three levels, so every reader in your class can finish one. Every answer comes from the King James Bible (Acts 18:1–4; 18:18–19; 18:24–26), and each level downloads with or without an answer key.

• Easy (ages 5–7): short answers, simple clues and a word box to pick from.
• Medium (grades K–2): more words and no word box.
• Hard (grades 3–5): kids look up each verse in their Bible to find the answer.

Use them after the Priscilla and Aquila Sunday school lesson, with the maze and word search.

The Bible story

Paul came to Corinth and found a Jew named Aquila with his wife Priscilla; because he was of the same craft, he abode with them, and wrought, "for by their occupation they were tentmakers." Priscilla and Aquila sailed with Paul and he left them at Ephesus. There a Jew named Apollos, "an eloquent man, and mighty in the scriptures," spake boldly in the synagogue, "knowing only the baptism of John," and when Aquila and Priscilla had heard him, "they took him unto them, and expounded unto him the way of God more perfectly." Read the whole story in Acts 18:1–4; 18:18–19; 18:24–26 (KJV).

Memory verse: "And he began to speak boldly in the synagogue: whom when Aquila and Priscilla had heard, they took him unto them, and expounded unto him the way of God more perfectly." (Acts 18:26, KJV). It is printed on every level.
