At each stop along our Vision Trip journey, we've met with SAT-7 leaders and church leaders. Our understanding and vision to see a growing church in the Middle East and North Africa has been enlarged as we attended the SAT-7 Network meetings. We then met with SAT-7 Lebanon country director, then the SAT-7 PARS Director, we flew to Cairo to visited the SAT-7 Egypt studio and met ministry partners in Cairo. We then moved to Palestine where we have met with a SAT-7 board member in the West Bank and the president of Bethlehem Bible College.
While each one has needs, the SAT-7 Lebanon studio need is most compelling. 30% of SAT-7 programing comes from the SAT-7 studios in Beirut. The soon to be launched SAT-7 KIDS channel will come from Beirut. While there are 3 production studios in Beirut for SAT-7 productions there is only one set of cameras they share between them! This is severely limiting urgently needed programs and production projects.
The SAT-7 Vision Trip members would like to help SAT-7's Lebanon studio and Naji Douad with a set of cameras. Studios cameras and accessories like lenses, controller, recorder, etc. are expensive. We invite all those reading the blog to join with us, their family and friends to help raise $30,000 USD towards the needed cameras for the SAT-7 studio in Beirut, Lebanon. Maybe you know of someone you could ask to help us. We would be glad to give more information on this urgent need. Please contact us for information: Dennis Wiens at denniswiens@sat7.org or (816) 734-4180 or Jim Smith jimsmith@sat7.org or (317) 209-0126
Good News! A matching gift is available. For every two dollars given to SAT-7 it will be matched by one dollar, increasing the value of your gift!! (This match is for new gifts or increased gifts ove last year)
All gifts should be sent to SAT-7 P.O. Box 2770, Easton, MD 21601. Please designate your gift for the Lebanon Studio Cameras.
