Loaves and Fishes

"Taking the five loaves and the two fish and looking up to heaven, he gave thanks and broke the loaves. Then he gave them to his disciples to set before the people. He also divided the two fish among them all. They all ate and were satisfied,and the disciples picked up twelve basketfuls of broken pieces of bread and fish. The number of the men who had eaten was five thousand." Matthew 6:41-44

When the Africans were setting up the stuff for the film, I have to admit that I was a little skeptical about whether their equipment was actually going to work. But they all proved me wrong. That sheet thrown over those two metal poles actually worked well for a movie screen.

Everyone was very receptive to the film. This was the first movie that most have them had ever seen or probably will see. They did an altar call during the crucifixion potion of the film. I couldn't even count the number of people who were raising their hands to accept Jesus.

The Jesus Film guys then split everyone up into groups of men, women, and children for counseling. They wanted the Americans to lead the counseling sessions, but they forgot to tell us what to do, so we will do that on other nights.

This film is just another way that God is moving in this place.
