Video
Here is a video we created a couple of years ago to thank all of our volunteers who serve in Kids Ministry.
Song
If you are wondering what song this is, it is called “In the Moment of Inspiration”, and I purchased it from Audio Jungle here.
Script
Here is the script. Feel free to use it and modify as needed.
It’s broken down by age group. I chose a few kids from each class. To shoot the video, I simply read the line that the kids had to say and told them to repeat it the exact same way I said it. Then we edited out my voice. One thing that was really helpful was to have an external mic on a boom connected to the camera – so we could hold a microphone right of the kids head and pic up their lines really clear.
Remember: Great audio is what helps makes a video feel professional.
Nursery:
It’s Sunday morning and my parents head to church
They drop me off in my classroom and I recognize your face
Your warm smile makes me feel welcome and safe
Lots of kids join us
And you greet us all by name
Leapers:
Before I got here you prepared a story
You spent time getting crafts and games ready
You spent some time on your knees – praying for me
Praying for my whole class
Hikers: (start talking)
Sometimes our class goes really well
We listen closely
We ask questions
We answer questions
But sometimes our class doesn’t go so well
Explorers:
We don’t raise our hands
We don’t wait our turn
We say the wrong answers
We don’t stay in our seats
We keep asking to go to the bathroom
And you wonder…
You wonder if it was worth the time you spent preparing
You wonder when Pastor Bob will finally finish his message
You wonder if any of this is hitting home
You wonder if serving every 5 weeks is really making a difference
The truth is…
Elevate:
I’m heading into some of the toughest years of my life
Years when I’ll be facing some big choices
Years when peer pressure will seem so strong
Years when my faith in Christ will be tested
And I’ll remember…
I’ll remember your smiling face
Your high fives
When you sat on the floor with me
When we made crafts together
I’ll remember the Bible stories you taught me
And the scripture verses that are tucked inside my heart
So you see – it might be once every 5 weeks for you
But for me it has been years of faithfulness
Someone willing to invest in me
Someone willing to invest in my eternity
Someone willing to share God’s love with me
All classes:
So for that I Thank you (elevate)
Thank you (explorers)
Thank you (hikers)
Thank you (leapers)
Thank you (nursery)
