Effective Children's Ministry

Posts Tagged ‘Video’

A free gift to us from Damaris.org, a wonderful source of thoughtful aids to communication in our culture today.

This is not particularly to do with children’s work, but it is a beautiful video, and well worth pausing for a few minutes of reflection.

Thanks to Ian Britton for this lovely Christmas piece.
>>His blog has many other visual treats, too!

There are several places online where you can see this charming video. But I wanted to direct you to >>this page, because there is so much else you will find there by way of free Christmas resources and ideas for your children’s ministry. Ministry-to-children.com is a wealth of stimulating ideas, tips and links. No connection with our ChildrensMinistryFreeStuff.org site – but hey, there’s room for us all in the Lord’s work!

From Family Worship.org comes a simple but poignant song, presented as Christmas music video. The Youtube page will give you a taste of this inspirational worship experience.

It is good to know that, if you would like to use this for a Christmas service,

Hot news!!
Now available from the web site of Damaris.org are some great new free resources, based on the new film “NATIVITY”.
They include scripts for children’s talks, video clips for discussion starters, a free school assembly outline with all the media clips and even the heading and bullet points to add to your PowerPoint presentation. You can preview everything, then download for free.

We haven’t seen the movie, but many of your friends and neighbours, with their children, may go to see it. This could be a way of connecting with them, and showing the relevance of the Christmas message for today. The Damaris material gives you ideas and materials with which to take advantage of this.
