This video is a portion of the Conversations with Leaders: Dual Platform Future for All Ages webinar that was offered in April.

In this video, Annie Scott, Pacific Western Staff talks about the role of religious educators in planning for moving forward.

In summary:
Religious educators should be part of this process because they are the direct connection to families, children, youth and parents and often represent those needs at the table. How church looks in the future is changing and will be an emerging process going forward and religious educators need to be part of the conversation. Finally, we need to plan in a way that protects the most vulnerable of our populations. When the pandemic started, that was our older populations. Now it's our children as the variants appear to affect them more than the original virus.
