TBN's Acquisition Of 'Holy Land Experience' Theme Park Seeks To Change More Lives

June 9, 2007 ORLANDO -- Trinity Broadcasting Network (TBN), the world's largest religious broadcaster and America's most-watched faith channel, hopes to change more lives through its addition of the "Holy Land Experience" theme park in Orlando, Fl., to the TBN family. Through the acquisition, TBN will bring an integration of the powerful living recreation of ancient Jerusalem with a cutting edge facility that will be used for television production, dramas, musical concerts, special events and movies.

"This marriage will bring an unprecedented synergy to both ministries and the production that is done there will be seen by a worldwide audience. TBN's involvement made sense, because both ministries are about changing and effecting people's lives. We've been doing that for 34 years," said Paul Crouch, Jr., TBN Vice President of Administration. "We believe this opportunity was heaven sent because it bought TBN an Orlando-based facility to fulfill it's local programming obligations for WGTL CH-52 and it will provide "The Holy Land Experience" with much needed promotion to bring more people to the theme park and Orlando as a whole."

The Holy Land Experience could well be considered Orlando's most inspiring destination as visitors experience a full day of discovery that takes them 2,000 years back in time to the world of the Bible. It brings to life ancient Israel as a unique, thriving world filled with fascinating exhibits and venues. Visitors learn about the Wilderness Tabernacle and the Great Temple; discover the amazing history of the Bible; explore the city of Jerusalem in miniature; see re-enactments of Jesus' ministry, His life, death, and resurrection; and feel the power and passion of our original musical productions.

WGTL TV, Channel 52, has a reach of over four million viewers in the Orlando and Cocoa Beach metropolitan areas with TBN's wide range of innovative faith-based programming. In October of 2006, TBN celebrated the inaugural broadcast of WGTL Ch-52 in Orlando with a dedicatory service attended by TBN founders Paul and Jan Crouch, Pastor Benny Hinn, Singer and Preacher Judy Jacobs hosted by Pastor George Cope and Calvary Assembly in Winter Park, Fl.

The combination of the production facilities and the Holy Land Experience offers Orlando visitors a powerful and unique faith based experience that can be promoted worldwide through the TBN network. The promotional capability can drive visitors to the complex.

"Some of the staff was asking what is going to be the immediate effect here at the park and my answer was 'I'm planning on you having more people coming through the turnstiles this summer,'" said Crouch. "Universal Studios does the same thing. We want the 'Holy Land Experience' to be a faith-based version of that."

CWA Says Judge Alito Will Withstand Left’s ‘Blood Sport’

2006-01-10 -- WDC Media News -- WDC Media News CWA Says Judge Alito Will Withstand Left’s ‘Blood Sport’ PHOTO: CWA hosted a press conference in support of Supreme Court nominee Judge Samuel Alito. The event was held at The National Press Club on Thursday, January 5th, at 10:00 a.m. (Washington, D.C.) – Concerned Women for America (CWA) expressed confidence that despite the left’s announced attacks against Judge Samuel Alito, he will be confirmed as the 1l0th Justice of the U.S. Supreme Court. Judge Samuel Alito has unanimously received the American Bar Association’s highest well-qualified rating after its judicial review committee analyzed hundreds of his opinions and interviewed hundreds of law professors, judges and others who know him. Two hundred distinguished law professors, former judges, solicitors general of the United States and other appellate lawyers sent a letter to the Senate expressing their strong support for his confirmation. Many of his former law clerks on the 3rd Circuit, where he has served for 15 years, are crisscrossing the country to speak on his behalf. What is most telling is that Judge Alito’s supporters are from both ends of the political spectrum. “The truth about this great judge will carry the day. But it’s a sad commentary on how degraded the Senate confirmation process has become when opponents of a Supreme Court nominee speak of defeating him in terms reminiscent of a spectacle in the ancient Coliseum,” said Jan LaRue, CWA’s Chief Counsel. “Reasonable people will not be persuaded by the same-old tactics of deception, distortion and delay. Thankfully, he will receive a thumbs-up from the American people. “Judge Alito has earned this appointment to the U.S. Supreme Court with his dedication to the law and professional and personal integrity,” said Wendy Wright, CWA’s Executive Vice President. “Those who oppose him have made clear their true motives, ideologues desperate to oppose President Bush who use tired tactics of misinformation, smears and shrill slogans. Judge Alito stands in stark relief to his opponents, a man of honor and humility in contrast to dishonorable power-mongers.” For Information Contact: Stacey Holliday (202) 488-7000 media.cwfa.org
