Kenyan "JESUS" Film Team Reaches Out

From April 18 to May 1, 2009, a Kenyan "JESUS" film team traveled to the East Pokot District, where they showed the film in several villages. God worked in amazing and powerful ways during the 14-day outreach.

• Marsabit village is a forgotten village without a church, school or medical center. The availability of water is the only thing that keeps people living there. When the film team arrived in Marsabit, they learned the village pastor had died four years earlier, leaving the community with no spiritual guidance. The villagers welcomed the team enthusiastically, and that evening 48 people attended the showing of "JESUS," and 48 prayed to receive Christ!

• In another area the homesteads sit so far apart from one another, it is impossible to tell that people live there. The team set up their film equipment, making enough noise to create awareness of their presence. Soon villagers emerged from different directions, curious as to the noise. Two hundred stayed to watch JESUS, and 140 indicated decisions for Christ!

• In the village of Chesaing, 150 people saw "JESUS," and all 150 prayed to receive Christ.
One man remarked to the team, "Hii kweli ‘ndio tulikuwa tunangojea-This is truly what we were waiting for."

• On the last day the team reported, "We bowed to the villagers' request of a last show at Lomuke Village and 100 people attended with 80 prayed to receive Christ."
