Depot of Hope and Gifts of Hope DVDs

Wrote and directed both DVDs highlighting aspects of the United Methodist Committee on Relief’s work. The DVDs serve as a packaged program containing resources in addition to the video to give churches or groups everything they need to set up a program or event around the video topic.

Depot of Hope tells the story of UMCOR’s relief supply depot in Louisiana. In addition to the main video, it also contains instructional videos on how to assemble the most popular relief supply kits that are sent to the depot from church groups across the US. It also has all the forms and instruction sheets needed to assemble and ship kits to the depot. The DVD contents serve as a complete program package allowing a church or group to have everything they need to have a kit making event.

Gifts of Hope highlights UMCOR’s work in South Darfur, Sudan–a place of great interest to United Methodists. The DVD contains a longer and a shorter video as well as study and promotional materials to assist a church or group when planning a special emphasis on Sudan.
