JESUS FILM PROJECT
JESUS FILM PROJECT is a Florida fictitious name, not a separately incorporated company. The Florida Department of State’s fictitious-name file records it under registration number G25000036904, filed on 14 March 2025, active, and expiring on 31 December 2030. The registrant is Campus Crusade for Christ, Inc., a nonprofit corporation that the same Department records as incorporated in California and qualified in Florida as a foreign nonprofit corporation (document 831278, Florida file date 14 November 1973). The name is used for a Christian film and media ministry based at 100 Lake Hart Drive, Orlando, Florida 32832.
Under section 865.09(8) of the Florida Statutes, a fictitious-name registration is “for public notice only”. It creates no legal entity, so the JESUS FILM PROJECT registration number identifies a trading name of Campus Crusade for Christ, Inc., not a company of its own. Under section 865.09(5) a registration runs to 31 December of the fifth calendar year and must be renewed after that.
The Department holds two more active registrations for closely related names, both made by the same registrant (same Florida document number and the same federal employer identification number, 95-6006173). THE JESUS FILM PROJECT (G06122900314) was filed on 2 May 2006, renewed on 8 December 2011, 28 December 2016 and 17 September 2021, and expires on 31 December 2026. JESUS FILM MEDIA (G14000044247) was filed on 29 April 2014, renewed on 9 December 2019 and 3 December 2024, and expires on 31 December 2029.
The ministry describes itself at https://www.jesusfilm.org/ as “a ministry of Cru (Campus Crusade for Christ International)”. It says it produces the JESUS film, which it created in 1979, together with other films, media tools and ministry strategies, distributed free online, through an app and on television. Its own figures are 2,317 language translations of the JESUS film and 671,316,226 views across its media in 2025. These figures are the ministry’s own and have not been independently verified. The site dates the ministry’s formal founding as a ministry to 1985. Revenue and staff figures for the ministry on its own are not published, and the registrant’s figures are not attributed to it here.
The year 1979 is the year the ministry gives for the film, not a registration date. No Florida record dates the JESUS FILM PROJECT name to 1979.

Registration details
Officers
Directors and officers of JESUS FILM PROJECT
JESUS FILM PROJECT has no directors or officers of its own. It is a Florida fictitious name (G25000036904), and Florida’s fictitious-name file records a registrant for it, not office-holders. The registrant is Campus Crusade for Christ, Inc. (Florida document 831278), and its officers are the people who act for the business carried on under the name.
Florida’s nonprofit corporation master file (snapshot dated 10 July 2026) lists six officers for Campus Crusade for Christ, Inc., using the register’s own title codes:
- Chair (code “Chai”): R. B. Cannada
- President (“Pres”): David Robbins
- Chief financial officer (“CFO”): Kent Herr
- Code “Cont”, which the file does not expand: Elizabeth Sisson
- Secretary (“Secr”): Barbara Bouchard
- Director (“Dire”): Jeffrey B. Leimgruber
The record’s annual-report fields carry 2026 filings dated 29 April 2026 and 20 May 2026, and this list stands as of that reporting. The record also sets the register’s flag for “more than six officers”, while the file has room for only six. So the full list of officers and directors is longer than the one shown here and cannot be completed from this source. The register gives no appointment dates. All six are recorded at the organisation’s Orlando office address, care of its General Counsel’s Office.
Data availability
Partial. The Florida register publishes the names and titles of up to six principals, with no appointment or resignation dates and no nationality or country of residence, so nationality is not disclosed for anyone listed. No Form 990 trustee and officer schedule is available. The IRS Business Master File gives EIN 95-6006173 filing requirement code 13 (“990 – Not required to file (religious organization)”). A search of the IRS e-file index for 2017 to 2026 found no return under that EIN. As a check that the search worked, the same files did return the American National Red Cross (EIN 53-0196605) in every year. Given the filing code, the absence carries no information. The provider’s stored officer field for this page is a generic text suggesting that officer data is unavailable for the jurisdiction. That is not the case for the registrant, whose Florida record names officers. It is also why no officer cards appear for this name.

Group Structure
Group structure of JESUS FILM PROJECT
JESUS FILM PROJECT has no parent company, subsidiaries or sister companies in the corporate sense, because it is not a legal entity. It is a Florida fictitious name (G25000036904) registered by Campus Crusade for Christ, Inc., so the name sits inside that corporation rather than under it. The verified relationships below are relationships of the name to its registrant, and to other names registered by the same registrant. They are not corporate holdings.
Florida’s fictitious-name file (dated 3 October 2026) holds 75 active registrations made by Campus Crusade for Christ, Inc. (document 831278, FEI 95-6006173). Three are variants of this name, and one is CAMPUS CRUSADE FOR CHRIST INTERNATIONAL, the name used on the ministry’s website. The IRS records the registrant as the central organisation of group exemption number 3864, with affiliation code 8 (a group-ruling parent that is a church or similar religious organisation). Its Florida extract lists 28 subordinate organisations under that group number. A group exemption is a federal tax-exemption arrangement, and the IRS file gives no ownership or control percentage for it. Those organisations are therefore not presented here as subsidiaries.
Verified corporate relationships

|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Campus Crusade for Christ, Inc. | US (incorporated in California; qualified in Florida) | Florida 831278; FEI/EIN 95-6006173 | Registrant of the fictitious name: the legal entity that uses JESUS FILM PROJECT as a trading name | Not applicable (no equity) | Florida: active foreign nonprofit corporation (AFORNP), 2026 annual-report filings | 10 Jul 2026 |
| THE JESUS FILM PROJECT (fictitious name) | US (Florida) | G06122900314 | Another fictitious name of the same registrant | Not applicable | Active; filed 2 May 2006, expires 31 Dec 2026 | 3 Oct 2026 |
| JESUS FILM MEDIA (fictitious name) | US (Florida) | G14000044247 | Another fictitious name of the same registrant | Not applicable | Active; filed 29 Apr 2014, expires 31 Dec 2029 | 3 Oct 2026 |
| CAMPUS CRUSADE FOR CHRIST INTERNATIONAL (fictitious name) | US (Florida) | G09034900245 | Another fictitious name of the same registrant | Not applicable | Active; filed 3 Feb 2009, expires 31 Dec 2029 | 3 Oct 2026 |
Data availability
Complete for what the Florida register can show about a fictitious name: the registrant and the other names registered by it. The register has no parent or subsidiary field for a corporation, and there is no Form 990 Schedule R, because the IRS lists the registrant as not required to file (filing requirement code 13). Florida separately registers CAMPUS CRUSADE FOR CHRIST INTERNATIONAL, INC. (F14000003223) and other similarly named nonprofit corporations. No filed relationship between those corporations and the registrant was verified, so they are not listed. GLEIF holds a retired LEI for the registrant (549300FD3Y79J1RXI831), validated against California Secretary of State number C0277808. That LEI record shows entity status inactive, with a dissolution event effective 27 June 2014 that was recorded on 24 March 2022. Florida’s register shows the same corporation as active, with annual-report filings in 2026. Both records are reported here, and the conflict was not resolved because the California register could not be read. The provider’s stored group field is a generic absence text, and it gives no relationship either way.
