Helpful Tips for Christian Educators
Lisa Conway, Director of Children's Ministries at Los Altos United Methodist Church:
I attended a workshop at the United
Methodist Church of the Resurrection. One of the classes included some great tips on how to use video clips in services or large
groups of children. Check out video websites that let you search by topic or scripture, and download only the clip in the film
that relates to your idea or sermon. The best one is www.screenvue.com
