"JESUS" Is A Hit At Pastors' Seminar

Clark Farley, an elder of a church in South Carolina, shared this story with The JESUS Film Project:

"... Back in January, at the very last minute, we contacted you about getting a copy of the "JESUS" film in the Miskito language. We were headed to the [Mosquito Coast] on the east coast of Nicaragua with a group of physicians and dentists and helpers to put on medical clinics and evangelical activities. ... it was an unbelievable blessing to the native Indian population of Nicaragua. We held a pastors' seminar for four days in Puerto Cabezas. We invited 100 pastors, and 170 showed up. Some traveled for over two days down the Rio Coco. Two came all the way from Honduras. These pastors were starved for some training. But the "JESUS" film in their native language was, by far, the hit of the conference. These men and women had never seen ANY movie in their native tongue. They watched the "JESUS" film with their mouths open. They did not move till it was over. We selected a pastor who had traveled the farthest, and we gave him a copy of the film and a Sony portable DVD player so he could take the film back to his village in the jungle. I just want to thank you for all you do. You are truly a wonderful blessing to this world."
