About this video
The text for Beatitudes for a Global Pandemic was written by Jayne Manfredi, based on Matthew chapter 5 – see the original on Jayne’s blog, here. The illustration (downloadable version here) is by Dave Walker. David Elcock brought together Tim Raggett (video editor), Andrew McCracken (voice), and Patrick Burbridge (music) to create the video. Huge thanks to all of them for their work on this.
