A new documentary sheds light on Iris Global Ministries and its efforts to share the love of Jesus Christ in Mozambique, even as a “campaign of terror” has displaced millions. The film about it, “NIFENTO,” will be officially released online Friday, Nov. 11.
The movie will be released online for people around the world to watch for free at the website nifento.com.
The documentary follows Heidi Baker, her husband, Rolland, and the ministry’s CEO Will Hart, as they “fight to see love win against all odds in the midst of terrorism, chaos and torture of the innocent.”
“Many of our friends have lost their homes. They’ve been burned down,” Baker said. “Others have lost their lives, but we are empowered by love and because we are empowered by love, we continue to go. We are going to continue to go. Low and slow. You can’t stop us because love wins.”
Filmed by two missionaries, James and Jessica Brewer, “NIFENTO” is a film that showcases the grim reality of war and terrorism in northern Mozambique. It features stories from families who are experiencing it firsthand and the response of Iris Global which is working hand in hand with the local church, according to the film’s website.
“NIFENTO demonstrates how Jesus is moving in the midst of darkness and war in northern Mozambique and how we, the church, can shine and be Jesus’ hands and feet during such times of evil and great need,” James Brewer, the film’s co-director and cinematographer, said in an email to CBN News.
“We felt passionate about making this film a free resource to give a voice to the voiceless in Mozambique,” Brewer continued. “To educate the western church on our brothers and sisters’ persecution for their faith and empower us to rise up and do something as a body of believers.”
As CBN News has reported, Islamic insurgents began to violently overtake the northern province of Mozambique roughly five years ago.
Since 2018, more than 800,000 people have fled their homes with “stories of unspeakable evil made manifest.”
Iris Global Ministries has 65 locations in 34 nations.
