Heidi Baker has been a minister of the Gospel of Jesus and a missionary for many years. Together with her husband Rolland they have lived in Mozambique for over the past 25years. As founders of Iris Global, a Christian humanitarian organization they have seen their share of war, natural disasters, horrors that one human being can inflict against another and much more. The new documentary Nifento tells the story of Heidi, Roland, Iris Global and the beloved Makua people they call family. In the Makua language, Nifento means love.
As reported by CBN News, the
documentary was described as, “Nifento follows Heidi Baker, her husband,
Rolland, and Iris Global’s CEO, Will Hart, as they fight to see love win
against all odds in the midst of terrorism, chaos, and torture of the
innocent.”
The synopsis of the documentary
for the documentary reads, “Filmed by two missionaries, James and Jessica
Brewe, NIFENTO is a film that showcases the grim reality of the war and
terrorism in Northern Mozambique. It features stories from families who are experiencing
it firsthand and the response of Iris Global, who are working hand in hand with
the local Church. “
“Striving to be the hands and
feet of Jesus in one of the poorest nations in the world, Heidi and her team
have faced cyclones, floods, famines, extreme poverty, and now terrorism. The conflict
has ravaged the region resulting in over 800,000 people fleeing from their
homes and becoming internally displaced.”
As a couple Rolland and Heidi have weathered many storms for
the Gospel in Asia and Europe. They are not strangers to the practical
ways of living out their faith. The choices they’ve made in different scenarios
all over the world plays out in Pemba. They’ve demonstrated that choosing Jesus
over and over again is their lifestyle and the benefits and struggle tied to it
are real and can be seen by all. They will inform you that they have no regret
for the life they have lived and continue to in their chosen country and
people.
Nifento is scheduled to premiere in November 2022 and the
