November 2021 – Being Thankful video

Staff members will need to ensure they download the video well in advance so that it is ready to play (we would advise this rather than relying on playing it live due to possible buffering issues)
Staff may wish to emphasise at the outset to students what is (at the start of the video) that it is a presentation about what Christians believe about Thankfulness but with universal themes covered.

Toward the end of the video we mention a few questions of application and provide a time of reflection for students to consider what they have learned and for people of faith to say a silent prayer if they wish.

If you have any problems accessing the video file please do phone us at any time. You can contact James on: 07977 122903.

The video is presented by staff and volunteers of BCM’s youth team and it is just under 10 minutes in length.

The video covers the theme of Harvest and Christian thankfulness and it is a presentation of what Christians believe about these things. We of course wouldn’t expect anyone within school to agree with the beliefs presented and held by Birmingham City Mission and it’s associated churches. Our hope is that students and staff – whatever their faith or no faith – would experience an increased sense of thankfulness for what they have and a desire to share with others.
