My names, Maria Magdalena also belonged to my Dutch grandmother and a special lady in the Bible. After seeing the poor treatment of women in a closed country, Willie and Marie helped retell the story of Jesus from Mary Magdalene’s perspective. The South African couple contrasted the treatment of women in that country with Jesus’ interactions with women. This birthed the film “Magdalene – released from shame”.
The film has been seen in many countries with tremendous impact. The Lord used the Afrikaans premier of “Magdalena – bevry van skande” in Kimberley on 24 May 2013 to unite seven churches to share the gospel.
The translation of the film into South African languages has been difficult. Please pray for:
- The finalisation of the Xhosa and Zulu versions.
- The Afrikaans version to change many lives.
