All Africa for Jesus
Emmanuel Kwizera shares the vision of every African worshipping Jesus in an inspirational message about "Why is missions important?" Pastor Kwizera, from Rwanda, serves as the International Missions Director for African Enterprise, based in Kenya.
The Distant Boat
The Distant Boat tells the fictional story of Max, a young urban Kenyan who has it all. Max's whole life and perspective is challenged when he meets Yusef, whose people have no church and no Christian witness. Although he wants to help, opposition from family and friends almost causes him to give up. This movie addresses uniquely African challenges in doing missions, and will change the hearts of all who see it.
FAQ
A missionary is a person who is sent out to work cross-culturally, often in a spiritually dark place where others have not heard the Gospel. They leave their homes, extended families, church, and comforts to minister to others, often at great cost.
