Original Toronto Star caption: A Jesus people convert with hands outstretched returns to shore on the Toronto Islands after being baptized in the harbor waters in September; 1971. Three years ago; the Jesus People movement was making news all over the continent but today things have changed; like the Toronto skyline in the background; and the movement has lost its early fervor. Some members of the movement have joined new cults; but many have become denominations on their own or joined traditional churches.
