American Baptist Churches USA is pleased to offer a children’s storybook video for the American Baptist family based upon the book, “You are Special” by Max Lucado with illustrations by Sergio Martinez. Members of the National Executive Council provided the voices and narration for the story and director Jonathan Wu produced the video. The story tells of a group of Wemmicks who live in a community where people place dots on one another for bad things and stars on one another for doing good things. One of the members of the community, Punichello, notices that Lucia has no stars or dots and sets out on a journey to discover how this is possible. While the video is drawn from a children’s book, the message is one for all ages. View the video here.
The National Executive Council is comprised of the leaders of American Baptist Home Mission Societies, American Baptist International Ministries, American Baptist Women’s Ministries, and MMBB Financial Services, along with the General Secretary of American Baptist Churches USA.
The current members of the National Executive Council are: Dr. Jeffrey Haggray, Executive Director, American Baptist Home Mission Societies Rev. Dr. Gina Jacobs-Strain, Executive Director, American Baptist Women’s Ministries Rev. Sharon Koh, Executive Director/Chief Executive Officer, American Baptist International Ministries Dr. Louis Barbarin, Chief Executive Officer, MMBB Financial Services Dr. C. Jeff Woods, Interim General Secretary, American Baptist Churches USA |
