Word Spring Discovery and Jesus Film Project

Two for one field trip with our h'schl group today...We started out at the Word Spring Discovery Center at the Wycliffe Bible Translators and finished with the Jesus Film Project down the street at the Campus Crusades for Christ headquarters. Still trying to wrap my head around all the incredible information we soaked up today.

Like there are approx 6000 languages in the world today and only 429 of them have a complete bible. Over 90% of the languages are spoken by maybe 6% of the world’s population, which tells us that there are hundreds of languages with only a few speakers. English is #3 in terms of most spoken, Chinese Mandarin is #1, with Spanish placing at #2.

The "JESUS" film has been translated into more than 1,000 languages! Which makes it the most translated and also the most-watched motion picture of all time.

"He is risen; he is not here." -- Mark 16:6

Easter Sunday...a day of honoring and recognizing Jesus Christ's resurrection from the dead and His glorious promises of eternal life for all who believe in Him.

And for the child with untrustworthy parents... a pair of Rear View Spy Glasses to keep the little sneaks from coming up behind and plundering candy from inexperienced said child.
