Engage Holocaust Remembrance day is an international memorial day commemorating the tragedy of the Holocaust that occurred during the Second World War. It highlights the genocide that resulted in the death of an estimated 6 million Jewish people, 250,000 mentally and physically disabled people and 9,000 homosexual men by the Nazi Regime.

Engage Video suggestion: Holocaust Memorial Day : How can life go on?
Some discussion ideas … If you were judged by your religion/race/appearance etc, would you hold a grudge against them or learn to forgive? Give a reason. How do you think the soldiers felt leading the victims to their death? Can the soldiers be forgiven? Discussion techniques - Go back to the Bible passage ask “How does the theme link with the Bible passage?” Discuss the question in pairs for 30 seconds then invite a response from each pair. Use quick-fire answers e.g. throw a soft bean bag / toy to a student, when they answer they throw it back and you quickly throw to another student. Simplify the question - Invite quick one-word answers, write them on the board, then reflect on the answers – see connections.

Respond Join together for a one minute silence, in reflection for the victims of the Holocaust. God of Our Fathers, let the ashes of the children incinerated in Auschwitz, the rivers of blood spilled at Babbi Yar or Majdanek, be a warning to humanity that hatred is destructive, violence is contagious, while humans have an unlimited capacity to cruelty. Almighty God, fulfil the prophecy of Isaiah: “They shall beat their swords into ploughshares nation shall not lift up a sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more.” Amen. Prayer / reflection technique – Give a summary of the theme and any responses that students may have made, then invite everyone to be still (remind no books open etc – lessen distraction). To pray or reflect on today’s worship. Be quiet for one minute. Then say the prayer …
