Many days ago, when we visited Wycliffe, we picked up a brochure about this place. The Jesus Film was released in 1979 and has been used to share the gospel with millions. In fact, when I went to Morocco in 1997, we used the Jesus Film on our trip.
This picture next to Ky (above) shows people seeing/understanding the gospel for the first time. They also had an amazing video of a crowd of thousands in Africa seeing Jesus "speak their language" as they watched the film dubbed in their own tongue. The reaction was incredible. This film is an amazing tool for sharing the gospel.
We saw how they used to show it, on 4 huge rolls of film, and how they can show it now - on a projector the size of my palm with the film dubbed in 10 different languages on one small sd card!
There are over a thousand lights on this board (Jo counted them!) that show places where the Jesus Film has been shown in a people's heart language.
The project is run out of the CRU headquarters (Campus Crusade).
And, of course, being in Florida, there is still tons of wildlife everywhere. Even alligators in the pond right outside the door.
As part of the tour, one guest was selected to demonstrate how the dubbing is done. Kik was given a script and a practice run, then they recorded his voice and dubbed it into the movie. He played Peter talking to Jesus.
Afterwards, we got to watch how well he did. They also gave us a dvd of his work as a souvenir. (:
