Go and Do Likewise

Watch or Host a Screening of Go and Do Likewise 

As part of Covenant World Relief and Development’s 80th Anniversary, Go and Do Likewise invites viewers into the story of God’s faithfulness, partnership, and transformation over eight decades of ministry. Whether you’re watching on your own or gathering with your church or community, there are several ways to engage with the film. However you choose to engage, Go and Do Likewise is designed to spark conversation and invite participation in what God is doing—past, present, and future.

Host a Screening

Churches, ministries, schools, and Covenant communities are encouraged to host a screening of Go and Do Likewise as part of a worship service, small group gathering, or special event. When you register to host a screening, you’ll receive access to a licensed version of the film for group viewing, along with discussion questions and reflection prompts. You will also receive a Film Screening Kit in the mail to help make your event successful (and fun!). 

Watch as an Individual 

Individuals and families are invited to watch Go and Do Likewise on their own or with friends. The film is well-suited for personal reflection, small groups, or informal gatherings, and includes stories from Covenant partners around the world that invite prayer, learning, and response.

Prior to moving to the USA, I was a professor at the National University of Colombia and served with the International Fellowship of Evangelical Students in Colombia for 16 years. Starting in 2001, I served as InterVarsity National Staff in the USA. I have a master’s degree in Christian Ministries, and I serve in Spiritual Direction to those who want to be fully present and available to God and receive His grace over them. My joy is to see professors and college students coming to know Jesus and being transformed into people that bring the good news of righteousness and justice to others.
