Last weekend was slightly different as there was a Kenyan mission team in town and they brought the 'Jesus' film to school for students and community to watch. Last year the film was translated into Rendille (it's been translated into over 1000 languages) and a new soundtrack was recorded using local people as voice actors. On Saturday it was projected onto the big screen (the side of a lorry).
A few students translated parts for me, but as I know the story I was able to work out what was happening. And I know there was a happy ending to come even in the scary bits. Folks giggled as they heard familiar voices and Jesus (Yeesso) speaking their own language, but it was powerful stuff.
