THE MORMONS ON T.V.
Starting from the 8th of October you could see 17 billboards in various areas around Chisinau that look like this.
Watch Meet the Mormons on Pro TV 7.
Meet the Mormon's in Romanian
Meet the Mormon's in Russian
It was very interesting for Lee to call Salt Lake and ask them a question and they would say, "we are sorry but we don't have an answer because this is the first time the movie has been aired on TV." WOW our little country of Moldova was the first in the world to have Meet the Mormons viewed on television.
The numbers for viewing the movies were surprising about 260,000 for the Russian and a little less for the Romanian so they figured about half a million in all saw all of the movie or at least part of it. All I can say is that everyone that we talked to really enjoyed the movie and thought the stories were amazing . A little added tip is that one of our Sister Missionaries in the Philippines just sent ma a face book showing them having a 91st Birthday party for her Grandfather "THE CANDY BOMBER." How random is that just after we had spent months getting his movie here for thousands to see. We find that we know his granddaughter, Kirtley. Most of the people when asked would say they liked the Candy Bomber clip the best and then the second most favorite was the Missionary.
We have decided that the Public Affairs work is very interesting, time consuming and nail biting, but very rewarding when everything finally comes together!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This was a very surreal experience for a month plus to drive around Chisinau and see our Meet the Mormons advertised on all these billboards, It was Wonderful!
Picture of the Month!
Look who came strutting down the sidewalk in front of the Center.
