2. TITLE:
RETURN TO CAIRO
Focus: Evangelism, Discipleship
We envision Back To Cairo as the inaugural film in a series of contemporary adaptations of Jesus's parables. While many North Africans are familiar with the name of Jesus, few are well-versed in his teachings. By re-imagining these timeless parables, we aim to craft compelling narratives that resonate with modern audiences, offering both entertainment and a fresh perspective on biblical truths. We intend to distribute these these films broadly through different online and tv channels as well as being made available for missionaries on the ground, local pastors and believers in there church planting efforts
Initial Estimated Budget: $19,500 USD
Amount raised to date: $0 USD
Currently being discussed with an Egyptian Film company for partnership for filming

3. TITLE:
THE FISHERMEN OF MOROCCO
Focus: Education, Prayer, Mobilizing,
People often ask, what does the average Muslim think? This veritè style documentary would bring a real example to questions the average Moroccan would think as he wrestles through life’s questions. We have already made a connection with a fisherman who is excited for this project. He took us out on his boat and shared with us a bit of his life. The goal would be to visit him 3 times over the course of a year, each time spending a few days with him. Sleeping in his house, eating with him, working with him, all while asking him questions about family, faith, and the future.
This video would be used to share and educate those who are considering reaching an unreached people group in North Africa.
Updated Budget: $18,700 USD
Amount raised to date: $2000
Update: We have already traveled to Morocco and have talked with the local fishermen. We connected well with one man as we shared with him our idea to film his life and work over the course of the year. He seemed excited and invited us to come on us boat that night. Please consider giving towards this project for us to complete it.
The Budget has been updated to reflect realistic numbers (travel, production, and overhead)

4. TITLE:
CHRIST’S LOVE COMPELS US
Focus: Prayer, Mobilizing, Encouragement
2 Corinthians 5:14-15 “For Christ’s love compels us, because we are convinced that one died for all, and therefore all died. And he died for all, that those who live should no longer live for themselves but for him who died for them and was raised again.”
This video features Dick Brogden, who has lived his whole adult life among unreached people groups, and another who lived among an unreached people group in North Africa for 11 years. This project asks why we go to the unreached. It beautifully paints a picture of North Africa and reveals why it mean to live there, carefully honoring North Africans while being honest about the challenges of Gospel proclamation in a Muslim country.
The grammatical construction of the biblical phrase “the love of Christ compels us” allows for triple application. It could mean that the love we have for the lost compels us to mission. It could mean that the love we have for Jesus compels us to mission. It could mean that the love Jesus has for the lost compels us to mission. Because the grammatical construction is flexible, context must help us discern the intended meaning. The first two options we discard, for we quickly find there are many days we do not love the lost and sadly on some days we do not love Jesus as we ought. Besides, God’s mission is too important to depend on the fickle love of man. The third option is true because only God’s love never wanes and because the text is universal in scope: we persuade men, Jesus died for all, if anyone is in Christ. How thankful we must be that the motivation for mission is God’s unfailing love, not man’s fickle, feeble emotion.
Estimated Budget: $1000 USD
Actual Cost: $2350 USD
Amount raised to date: $2660 USD

5. TITLE:
BMB Testimony Series
Focus: Evangelism, Prayer, Encouragement
What does it mean to follow Jesus? In Greater North Africa, it almost always involves paying a significant cost. Abandonment by family, lost jobs, lost marriages, even death threats are not uncommon. And yet, Christ continues to call North Africans unto Himself.
This project shares the personal journeys of Jesus followers who come from Muslim backgrounds.
Such testimonies inform and encourage the global church to pray for our brothers and sisters in North Africa. They also teach and inform about living a life of faith under fire.
But perhaps more importantly, Believers from a Muslim Background (BMBs) testimonials have a special resonance for other BMB’s who might feel isolated in their communities, as well as Muslims quietly seeking Jesus.
Our intention is to create as many of these videos as possible and upload them to a searchable website for those who are seeking truth may find, and watch.
Budget per testimonial video: $500 USD
Amount raised to date: $6000 USD
Number of Testimonies filmed to date: 12
Update: We are so grateful for the current 12 BMB testimonies that have been fully funded! We are in the process of editing, which includes the necessary translation work of the full interviews and working with our parters to ensure accuracy. We have fully completed 1 and will be able to share that link privately with those who are interested.

6. TITLE:
FROM CUPS TO CHRIST
Focus: Mobilizing, Education,
The video aims to bridge the gap between the viewer’s passion for sharing the love of Jesus, and an accessible entry point into an unknown region. By focusing on the universal act of sharing adrink—something relatable to anyone—the video demystifies North African culture, presenting it as warm and inviting rather than distant or intimidating. The vivid imagery of drink preparation and casual conversations, paired with authentic voice-overs from Christians already engaged in this work, offers a tangible, low-pressure model for evangelism that doesn’t require expertise, just a willingness to connect. Highlighting real stories of God’s impact and movement through these simple interactions further inspires viewers, showing them they don’t need extensive knowledge of the region—just a heart for Jesus—to step into a culturally natural opportunity to share their faith, making the call to action both compelling and achievable.
Budget: $10000 USD
Amount raised to date: $4000
Update: We have filmed much of this project already, including the necessary interviews! We intend to begin post-production work in the near future.

7. TITLE:
21 Men
Focus: Prayer, Education
This will be an in-depth documentary on the Coptic martyrs killed by ISIS in Libya in 2015, who refused to convert to Islam in exchange for their lives. This documentary will explore the personal, familial and community impact of this tragic event, and look for lessons for the larger Christian community.
Update: We have been able to make our first production trip to Egypt for this project! While we were there, we were able to film 18 interviews, including the priest of the village and the bishop of the area. We have been completely blessed and overwhelmed with the response of the community so far, who are eager to have their stories told.
We intend now to create a trailer that will enable us to raise finances to complete this production. The trailer will also be used as a way to share with potential partners, producers, and additional backers. Stay posted to see updates of this project.
Total Estimated Budget: $50,000
Amount raised to date: $11,414

8. TITLE:
What does church planting look like in Greater North Africa?
Focus: Prayer, Education
How do you plant a church in a region of the world where simply sharing the Gospel is forbidden? How do you meet together as believers in places where you cannot legally start a church?
And as a Global Church Family, how can we intercede for our Greater North African Church Families if we are unaware of what their challenges are?
This short, animated film will serve as a starting place for exploring what Church planting in Greater North Africa (which includes the Horn of Africa) looks like. Pulling from the stories and experiences of church planters in Greater North Africa, the video will create a picture of some of the ways the Lord is establishing His Church throughout Greater North Africa and how we, as the Body of Christ, can pray for our brothers and sisters. By using animation, the video will protect the locations and identities of those planting churches in this sensitive region but help to create a visual understanding of what it looks like.
Estimated Budget: $8000 USD
Amount raised to date: $0 USD
UPDATE:
We are currently in the research phase and are reaching out to different animators to find the best one suited for this film. Once this has been established we will have a better understanding of the estimated cost to complete this project.

9. TITLE:
From the Desert to the Throne: Interceding for Greater North Africa
Focus: Prayer, Education
Prayer is the foundation for movements of God. There are currently over 270 million in Greater North Africa (which includes the Horn of Africa) who do not have adequate access to the Gospel. What is it going to take to see them reached? What would happen if the Global Church committed to praying for North Africa?
Estimated Budget: $TBA
Amount raised to date: $0
