MAYA MOPAN INDIANS From: Matt Castagna <Mcastagna@aol.com> Belize, Central America is home to some 6,000 Maya Mopan Indians Through this video you will learn about their history and past church planting efforts among them. You will also be challenged as you hear of the great need which still exists. [Matt just recently finished producing this 10-minute video based on his several years of experience in Belize, and I got to see it a couple of weeks ago. Nice footage of jungle scenery (and animals) and of the Maya people; missionary interviews could have been a little more fast-moving, though. It documents a classic case of non-contextualization in missions which has resulted in plenty of church buildings and meetings, but almost no true understanding of the Gospel in this unreached people group.--NW]

TRAGEDY IN SUDAN
Sudan has one of the highest populations of priority unreached peoples of all the countries in the world. This new video from VOM has stunning footage on the Islamic regime that is persecuting the Christians in Sudan, as well as a heart-rending view into the lives of the Christians who have been devastated. The tag at the end of the video about the Christian relief network that VOM is assisting was not enough to erase the horror in my mind after I watched it. There are some violent images on this video which require discretion in choosing your audience, but I believe that it should be shown to our churches to wake them up to the reality of what's going on in Sudan. $15 (VOM has a policy of not charging for the video if you show it to a group of people.) plus $3 Shipping and Handling, from Voice of the Martyrs, P.O. Box 4443 Bartlesville, OK 74005, 1-800-747-0085. About 10 minutes long. One thing to be aware of is that people may respond to this video by praying for a swift end to all persecution, rather than praying along more appropriate lines. Jon Hardin <JHardin@CProject> has put together an excellent compilation of Bible verses to follow up this video with Biblical prayer responses.--NW

TURKEY: A TIME FOR HARVEST
Once predominantly Christian, Turkey is now among the world's least evangelized countries. Ninety-nine percent of its 65 million people are Muslim. Most have never had a chance to hear the gospel.

Yemen: A People Apart
I just got my copy of AWM's video, YEMEN, A PEOPLE APART... Folks, it was the best video I've seen yet on the Yemeni! (O.K., I've only seen two others...) 14 minutes of absolutely beautiful video footage and good commentary on the land, it's people, and the spiritual situation. If I had to criticize anything, I'd say that the background music tracks weren't quite as rich as the video shots. AWM was not self-promoting in this video, so it would be very appropriate for general use. I recommend you all get a copy and show it to a prayer group! Yemen ranks #2 in highest ratio of unbelievers to believers, so they NEED prayer! Review by: NateWilson@XC.org Video: US$13 from Arab World Ministry, P.O. Box 96, Upper Darby, PA 19082
