Thank you. 00:58 Good evening ASI. Good evening. 01:01 I'm at ASI, aren't I? Amen. 01:03 Can we try that one more time? 01:05 Good evening ASI. Good evening. 01:08 That sounds a little bit better. 01:11 I'm very happy to be here 01:12 this evening with my good friend Bill Knott. 01:15 Bill is the Editor and the Executive Publisher 01:19 for the Adventist Review and the Adventist World. 01:22 And some of you may have noticed this evening 01:24 when you came in on your chairs that there was a 01:27 special issue of the Adventist Review. 01:29 We do this every year, we have a partnership 01:32 with Adventist Review where they're doing 01:33 ASI themed edition of the Adventist Review. 01:38 And I just wanted to ask you couple of questions about that. 01:43 I noticed on the cover of this issue, 01:47 that you're dealing with a tough topic 01:49 and I want to ask you two questions. 01:51 The first one is how do you and your editorial team 01:54 taken approach to a tough topic 01:57 and kind of plan your editorial approach? 01:59 And then second, the topic that you've covered 02:02 which is spiritual formations. 02:03 I'd like to have you tell me 02:05 little bit about in doing your research, 02:07 what you found and how that is affecting mainline 02:10 Protestant Christianity and also our own church? 02:13 Good questions. 02:15 We come to our decisions about the topics that we think 02:17 are most important partly out of our history. 02:20 The Adventist Review has had a history 02:23 for 162 years of tackling difficult topics. 02:26 And the day we start shying away from those 02:29 is a day where we stop serving God's people. 02:31 So it becomes an important part of our planning 02:34 to say not do, how do we play it safe. 02:37 But how do we bring in front of God's people, 02:39 the information they need to make 02:41 good godly decisions week by week. 02:43 This particular topic Spiritual Formation 02:46 is being discussed everywhere I go. 02:48 And so it was in many ways a natural topic for us 02:51 to address and as I've informed myself 02:54 and others in my staff have taken the opportunity 02:56 to learn about the currents that are moving 02:58 through the rest of the Christian world. 03:00 It seemed important to bring in front of this group 03:02 and in front of the rest of the World Church, 03:05 good solid information about what is happening 03:08 in our centers of education and what we aren't doing as well. 03:12 I also noticed in reading your editorial that you took 03:17 on a very, very interesting topic there as well. 03:20 And you were talking about this divide 03:22 that is often talked about in our own church. 03:25 And that divide has to do with whether you actually are paid 03:28 by the church or whether you are a lay person like myself. 03:32 And what I wanted to ask you was this. 03:34 Does it make a difference, 03:36 if you've have tithe dollars in your wallet, 03:38 when you're working for the Lord? 03:40 Not to the Lord, it doesn't and increasingly 03:43 it shouldn't for God's people wherever they are. 03:46 Employment is not the test of whether we're serving the Lord. 03:50 In fact when He's--when we get to the end of time, 03:52 there is only one employer 03:54 and it won't be the organized church. 03:56 It will be the Lord who says, well done, 03:58 good and faithful servant. 04:00 And that should apply to every individual 04:02 who's been disciple, every individual 04:04 who's got a to Jesus Christ and a vital mission in the world. 04:08 And so I wrote about the fact that I've grown up 04:10 as a person in an employee family 04:13 understanding that how distinction has been 04:16 alienating to so many in the church. 04:18 I'm grateful that the time is coming 04:20 where we're talking about how you're serving Jesus Christ 04:23 in this church, not where do you get your income. 04:26 Another question for you, I know that you travel a lot. 04:30 In fact you're probably more familiar 04:32 with transoceanic flights than a lot of the rest of us. 04:35 But I also noticed that you're here every year 04:38 at the ASI Convention, why is that? 04:41 That's easy. 04:43 ASI has its members the kind of people 04:47 who historically are the readers 04:49 and appreciators of the magazine I publish. 04:53 Adventist Review speaks to the central 04:55 concerns of Seventh-day Adventists. 04:58 It speaks to what is truth, what is current truth 05:02 and where God's people are going as a prophetic movement. 05:06 This is our kind of audience, we hope this is your kind 05:08 of magazine because each year we come here to say, 05:11 pickup this journal, if you haven't been 05:13 acquainted it for a while, look at it again. 05:16 Let me ask you this question, 05:18 you're giving an Adventist Review here 05:20 to every church member. 05:21 You've a lot of subscribers in our audience as well. 05:24 What do you want ASI members to do 05:26 with the Adventist Review? 05:27 If you're a subscriber, give that as a gift, 05:30 36 times a year it will go into the home of someone 05:33 you care about with the witness you may not be able to have. 05:36 Come by our booth at 528, talk with our team there, 05:40 learn how you can use this as a witnessing tool as a tool 05:43 to nurture faith and those you care about as well. 05:46 Thank you so much. 05:49 Good evening ASI. Good evening. 05:51 I have the privilege of interviewing or presenting 05:54 to you three different ministries this evening. 05:58 The first one is represented by Dr. Tooma. 06:02 She is a family practice physician. 06:05 And where is your practice Dr. Tooma? 06:08 In Southern California. 06:09 We have three offices Fontana, Rialto, and San Bernardino. 06:12 But I practice mainly out of Fontana office. 06:15 Now while we were talking in back there, 06:16 I was already becoming enthused about witnessing 06:19 because of your enthusiasm, praise the Lord. 06:23 And I'd like to ask you and to tell the people here, 06:26 were you always that enthusiastic 06:27 about witnessing for the Lord. 06:29 No, actually I was born in an Adventist family, 06:32 but it wasn't until about six to seven years ago, 06:35 when my son attended some Bible studies given 06:38 in school and the fire of the love of God caught on him 06:41 and he brought it home to me and my life has never been 06:44 the same again, the peace, the joy, the security 06:48 that the Lord has put in my heart, 06:50 you cannot find it in this world. 06:52 I never thought it was ever possible, but it has. 06:55 So it didn't go from the parents to the child, 06:58 it went from the children to the parent, is that right? 07:00 God used my only son to introduce me 07:03 anew to His only beloved Son. 07:05 Okay. And so why do you like to witness 07:10 to your patients and you were telling me that 07:12 there is other venues too, it's not just your patients 07:14 that you like to witness too, 07:15 but you have other, other ways to. 07:17 Now if you're good and we have enough time, 07:19 I'll let you tell about some of those other ways. 07:21 But tell us now, in your practice, 07:23 what are you doing to witness for patients, to your patients? 07:26 First they ask me, why I want to witness, 07:28 actually because of the big blessing 07:31 that overwhelmed my life. 07:33 Since I really knew Him, I developed a passion 07:37 for His children all around me, not only in my practice, 07:40 but it's all over, all around me wherever I go, 07:43 I ask the Lord, any door that You open open for me, 07:46 I'll take it, just tell me what to do and I'll do it. 07:50 At work, I witness not only to doctors, 07:53 but to employees and to my patients. 07:57 I pray with every every patient not just this, 07:58 but because I've a special interest in dermatology, 08:02 all our doctors, our 12 doctors refer their patients to me. 08:05 So many of them are overweight, 08:07 many have metabolic syndrome, 08:09 the autoimmune diseases et cetera, et cetera. 08:12 A lot of things that are lifestyle related. 08:15 So I start with lifestyle and that leads me 08:18 to the origin of the life, of the health message 08:21 which is in Genesis, time of creation. 08:24 And then it goes into what God added layer after sin 08:29 and the plan of salvation and it just goes on 08:32 and I end up giving the patients, 08:34 that's another thing literature evangelism. 08:36 I have our books all over my exam offices 08:40 and I continually order books 08:43 and avail them freely to my patients. 08:45 Now you told me about an incident 08:46 with the Baptist pastor who was a patient of yours. 08:50 Tell us about that? Yes. 08:52 He came again from another doctor, he had a skin problem. 08:55 And he had come to me before and every time I pray with him, 08:58 I never knew he was a Baptist pastor. 09:01 We always talked, you know, about Christ 09:02 and so last time he came he said, 09:05 this is a last time I'm gonna see you my insurance has, 09:08 you know, I lost my job and I can't see you anymore. 09:11 So, whatever you need to do, do it today. 09:13 And I said okay, so what do you gonna do? 09:16 What did you do before? 09:18 And he told me and then what you can do now. 09:19 He said, you know, I'm an ex-Baptist minister. 09:22 And I said Oh! So what you gonna do now? 09:24 He said I'm gonna go back to ministry. 09:26 I said great, God bless you. 09:28 And as he lay down in the table, 09:30 and I started working on him. 09:32 I said so pastor tell me what do you know about prophecy? 09:37 And he said I know some, but if you tell me 09:40 and I started with Daniel 2, Daniel 7, 8, 9, 10, Revelation. 09:46 How Sabbath was changed to Sunday, 09:48 the Mark of the Beast, the whole. 09:54 When I was done I mean, I talked for quite a while 09:58 all doctrinal issues even the State Of The Dead, 10:01 Everlasting Fire, what at everything, 10:04 everything at the very end I finished then I turned around 10:08 to put the lid on the biopsy little bottle. 10:11 And he said aren't you gonna pray with me. 10:14 I said absolutely I will. 10:15 He is used to me praying with him. 10:17 So when I prayed with him, I thanked the Lord 10:19 for this privilege that he give me 10:21 and I thanked Him for my brother 10:22 and I asked that I want my brother. 10:26 Dear Lord please give him light 10:28 that he may see your truth clearly. 10:30 I want to spend eternity with my brother 10:33 and his family enjoying You, 10:35 being around You in for eternity. 10:38 And when I finished my prayer, I saw tears 10:40 falling from this Baptist minister's eyes. 10:43 And on the way out, I gave him 10:45 Great Controversy, Desire of Ages, 10:48 Steps to Christ, you mean it, whole bunch of books. 10:52 And he took them, hug them and left. 10:54 He got the whole shoot and match that day, didn't he? 10:58 Are there any in your witness, 11:00 are there any particular books or literature 11:02 that you recommend or like to use, 11:04 kind of maybe ittle above some others. 11:06 Wow, Spirit of Prophecy, all kinds of books 11:10 English and Spanish and they are available to everybody. 11:16 I use doctrinal books, I mean old doctrines 11:19 for instance, the Rapture, the Everlasting Fire, 11:25 Hell, whole lot of doctrinal. 11:26 You use Great Controversy quite a bit. 11:28 Yes, yes.

Richards 14:02 used to pray over Los Angeles. 14:04 I thought it was a good idea. 14:06 So I started going up on the mountain to pray. 14:09 And folks I want you to know, 14:12 every time I went to that mountain to pray 14:14 my love for that city 14:16 and desire to see something good happen grew. 14:20 It was only a gift from God. 14:22 I really felt this heavy burden. 14:27 And so I would ask the Lord up there, 14:29 Lord what do you want me to do 14:31 and of course as a minister there was evangelism 14:33 which is actually happening. 14:35 But something very unique took place 14:38 and that is I suddenly had a burden. 14:41 First human sex trafficking which I've never had before 14:45 and I knew very little about. 14:47 And this burden grew and grew inside of me 14:50 and so I try to figure out Lord, 14:52 what do you want me to do? 14:54 And I was lead through my wife's work 14:58 she has a job there in Las Vegas, 15:01 there is a gentlemen. 15:03 And he heard me talking at in a social occasion 15:06 and he came up to me and he just whispered, 15:08 if you can find a legitimate project, I will fund it. 15:13 And so I went back to the mountain 15:14 and said Lord you got to help me. 15:16 And so I wrote some letters, some emails, 15:19 I made some calls and I could get no where. 15:22 And then all of a sudden I got a letter in the mail. 15:25 And I looked at that letter 15:26 and it was announcing the fact, 15:28 that this organization wanted to open a home 15:30 to help sex traffic victims. 15:34 But I didn't know who they were, 15:35 so I throw the letter away. 15:38 And then I go back on the mountain 15:39 and I pray Lord I can't get anywhere, 15:41 what do I do and all of a sudden 15:42 that letter came back to my mind. 15:45 And so sure enough, I went to the home, 15:48 I went back to the office, 15:49 I looked in the garbage can, it wasn't there. 15:52 But I remembered Living Waters. 15:55 So I got in the Internet, 15:57 I called that number and they said yes, 16:00 we're the organization that's doing that. 16:02 And I said well can I talk to your supervisor. 16:06 And I made an appointment and I sat down with her 16:11 and I'm talking to her and finally after half hour 16:14 I said to her, you keep talking about your church 16:18 and you keep talking about your pastor. 16:21 What is your church? Abundant Life. 16:24 And I went well, we have an Abundant Life Church 16:28 in Las Vegas and then I went 16:30 your pastor is Dr. Calvin Rock. 16:33 She said yes, I said, you're a Seventh-day Adventist. 16:36 And she said yes. And here is Christina. 16:41 Okay, and Christina I understand 16:43 you were not in Las Vegas all your life. 16:46 Why did you go there to Las Vegas? 16:48 Well, my family and I had a situation 16:50 where it was almost like an Abraham experience. 16:54 The Lord revealed to my husband 16:55 and I that we needed to leave Detroit. 16:57 And we didn't know where we were going 16:59 and so God called us to Las Vegas 17:01 and through a series of providential workings 17:05 and events God lead us to Las Vegas. 17:07 He took us to the place that He showed us 17:10 which happened to be Las Vegas. 17:12 Everyone thought we were crazy, 17:14 everyone my family, my friends, 17:16 everyone thought we're crazy 17:17 for moving from the place that we knew 17:20 and it was familiar to something 17:22 it's just very much unfamiliar. 17:26 Over the course of a couple of years, 17:30 the Lord placed in my heart even stronger 17:32 that Living Waters needed to open 17:35 a trauma recovery home for adolescent girls. 17:39 We sent out letters and I told my assistant, 17:42 you know, we're gonna send out letters to everyone 17:44 and I just want to let you know 17:46 that we probably won't hear anything 17:48 from the Adventist Church 17:49 but we're gonna send it anyway, okay. 17:52 And I-- seeing that the economic state 17:55 of the valley was in such ruins 17:57 and just the economic state in general, 17:59 nationally and internationally, 18:01 I didn't expect to hear from the Adventist Church, 18:04 but God has a sense of humor. 18:07 A few days after we send out letters, 18:09 I was on my way on vacation 18:11 and my assistant called me and said 18:13 there is this pastor who was relentless. 18:16 He just keeps saying, he know someone 18:17 who can help us open the home 18:19 and he has to speak with you now 18:21 and I said what did you tell him 18:22 that I'm going out of town next, 18:23 you know, on Tuesday. 18:25 She said yes, but he insisted. 18:27 Monday morning we meet and the minute that I share 18:30 with Pastor Neri that I'm Adventist, 18:34 he just breaks down crying. 18:35 And the youth pastor that he brought with him 18:37 is looking like why is he crying like? 18:39 What is going on here? 18:40 So then I'm getting teary eye 18:42 because when God gives you a vision, 18:45 He always gives you the means 18:47 by which to carry it out. Amen. 18:50 And why we are here today for us to share with you 18:53 about the mission and the vision that God has given us 18:56 to open Las Vegas' first ever trauma recovery home 19:00 for adolescent sex trafficking victims. 19:03 This will be a ground breaking effort. 19:07 We are schedule to open in November of this year. 19:10 We have the signature donor that by God's grace, 19:14 I was connected with Pastor Neri, 19:16 he was connected with Pastor Neri's wife, 19:18 who got us the funding to purchase the home. 19:21 And we just want to share with the world 19:24 that this is a real problem in our nation and in our world. 19:28 This is an International Conference 19:30 here and I think it's important 19:31 that we all are aware that sex trafficking is real, 19:36 it happens everyday, 19:38 your children are even our children yes, 19:41 Adventist children are able to be lured into sex trafficking. 19:46 The average age for a child to be lured 19:48 into sex trafficking is between the ages of 12 and 14. 19:52 For those of you, who have children 19:54 who are 12 to 14 that is your child? 19:57 And this home not only do we educate the community 20:00 about the dangers involved in the sex trafficking trade. 20:05 But we have something that can help them. 20:07 This home is a holistic home, 20:09 we use Christian biblical principles 20:11 to help bring girls from brokenness to restoration. 20:15 And Christine, if someone is interested 20:16 now in helping you pick their interest. 20:18 What could they do to help better or-- 20:20 There are three ways you can help, 20:22 the first way is by volunteering. 20:25 You can volunteer if you live in the Las Vegas area 20:27 or if you're coming you can always call us 20:30 and let us know you're coming. 20:31 And we will set you out with something 20:34 that you can do to make a difference 20:36 in the lives of these girls. 20:38 The second thing you can do is refer 20:40 anyone that you know who may need help. 20:42 I'm a licensed psychotherapist 20:44 and I provide along with my staff, 20:46 we provide intensive psychotherapy 20:50 using a biblically based approach to treatment. 20:52 I specialize in sexual trauma. 20:55 The third and most important thing 20:56 that you can do right now 20:58 as we're building the house, 21:00 if you build God's house, 21:01 He will build yours, that's what I believe. 21:04 The third thing you can do is to give, 21:06 log on to our website at livingwatersfamily.org, 21:11 livingwatersfamily.org and there will be a way 21:14 that you can come out of your pocket 21:16 to give to a broken family and a girl that's been affected 21:20 by the sex trafficking trade. 21:22 Thank you so much for your witness 21:23 and God bless you in your project. 21:25 Thank you. Thank you. 21:26 And our next one is Scott Richards. 21:33 Good evening and you what ministry 21:37 or institution do you represent 21:39 and what is your work there? 21:41 Well, we're from Fountainview Academy 21:43 and I'm the president and also the bus driver. 21:47 And Anneliese Walhman here is a recent graduate 21:50 and she is, has been 21:52 in all of our video productions as well. 21:54 Okay, now this is the school I understand has made 21:56 those nice videos of the young people 21:58 singing in different beautiful nature settings. 22:01 And surely as those DVDs have been developed 22:04 and send out, you have received some responses. 22:07 Can you tell us kind of what response 22:09 you're receiving as people view these? 22:11 Right, we're really been thrilled with response 22:13 that we've been getting because we started filming 22:15 these with the idea that we wanted people to use them 22:18 to give to their friends and neighbors, 22:19 so that they could be introduced to Christ. 22:21 And so we've been getting emails 22:23 back for the last few years. 22:25 And I'm just gonna have Anneliese 22:26 share a couple of those emails 22:27 that I think really describe, the kind of impact 22:29 that's been happening out there. 22:32 All right, this one is from Daniel 22:33 and he lives in BC, Canada. 22:36 Hi, my name is Daniel and I'm 16 years old. 22:40 I've been raised in Romania 22:41 in Pentecostal Christian family all my life, 22:43 but never opened my heart to God. 22:46 Just recently my family received a DVD 22:48 from the pastor here in Merritt. 22:51 He gave us Steps to Christ in Song. 22:53 I'm elder brother, 22:54 I watched the DVD over and over again. 22:57 When I saw those teenagers praising God 22:59 and devoting their lives for Him, 23:01 I was very impressed and liked what I saw and thought a lot. 23:05 What I saw changed my life 23:09 and truly opened my heart to God. 23:11 It has made me a better person in every aspect there is. 23:15 I gave my favorite sports up 23:18 which was a hard thing to do to praise God. 23:20 I also started helping poor people 23:22 and talking to others about God 23:24 and his salvation. 23:25 Now on April 17, I'm getting baptized 23:29 with my two older brothers. 23:30 I'm a very happy person now. 23:32 I thank God for everything He has done for me. 23:34 And I also want to thank Mr. Lemon 23:36 and the students for working 23:37 so hard on making these DVDs. 23:39 Please continue to make more. 23:41 I'll pray for all of you 23:42 and God bless all of you students 23:44 and teachers of Fountainview Academy. 23:45 I thank you all so much, Daniel. Amen. 23:50 Do you have any other particular experiences 23:54 or feedback from that you like to share? 23:56 Yeah well that one, you know, 23:57 that kind of tells, that email tells 24:00 how it's been impacting people 24:01 who haven't heard the message before. 24:04 But, you know, it's interesting to see 24:05 that this is even impacting people 24:08 who have heard the message 24:09 and in fact people who are giving the message. 24:11 And I want Ally to just share one more email, 24:14 I think it's really interesting. 24:16 Dear brothers and sisters in Christ. 24:18 I want to let you know what a blessing 24:20 your music has been to our family. 24:22 We move to the Amazon region of Brazil, 24:25 four years ago to do a mission work. 24:27 While we were here, our friend showed 24:28 one of your DVDs to us, 24:30 and we were greatly moved by the beautiful music 24:32 and to see the dedication of young people to our Lord. 24:35 We saw it only once, but it stayed in our minds. 24:39 Sacred music is hard to come by here. 24:41 And the last time we went to the U.S. 24:42 we purchased three DVDs, 24:44 wishing we could afford all of them. 24:46 Our children ages ten, seven and two 24:49 have been greatly affected 24:51 and go around the house singing the songs. 24:53 My son makes cellos and violins out of connects toys 24:56 and pretends to play them and is earnestly trying 24:58 to learn to play his guitar. 25:00 My daughter plays the songs, 25:01 she hears on the DVDs by ear on her keyboard. 25:04 And our two year old marches around the house singing, 25:06 "How Great Thou Art." 25:09 The oldest two children have their hearts 25:10 set on attending Fountainview. 25:12 But only the Lord knows how that might be possible. 25:15 Twice a week we all curdle together as a family, 25:17 the children's pleading to watch Steps to Christ. 25:20 Go Tell It on the Mountain are coming again on a laptop. 25:23 Please let your staff and students know, 25:24 what a blessing their ministry has been to us. 25:27 Michael Lemon mentioned on Steps to Christ, 25:29 after one of the student sang 25:30 "His Eye Is on the Sparrow". 25:32 That he'd been wondering 25:33 if he had really made a difference, 25:34 when he heard her sing that song. 25:36 I want to let him know that the hard work 25:39 and dedication of he and all the staff 25:42 and students at Fountainview have impacted 25:44 and blessed this family in Amazon. 25:46 As we bring the Three Angles Message 25:48 to those in our small corner of the world. 25:51 May the Lord bless you all as you carry out the work 25:53 that God has set before you? 25:55 Thank you, the Disena family. 25:58 Beautiful, you know, 25:59 as I have listened to these beautiful DVDs, 26:02 I wished it maybe there was one 26:04 it was kind of a summary of them, 26:05 a little shorter it make a little easier 26:07 to share with somebody else. 26:11 We have something like that. 26:12 Well, you know, it's interesting as we've heard 26:15 these stories of people saying how they've been blessed. 26:17 We thought, you know, 26:18 we really like to having a larger impact. 26:20 And so what we did was we decided 26:22 that we would make a shorter version now, 26:24 the Steps to Christ in Song is a great production, 26:26 but its six and half hours long. 26:28 And its, it has a lot of songs in it 26:30 and it's not inexpensive to reproduce. 26:34 So what we did was we just finished 26:37 filming another video series 26:39 similar to Steps to Christ in Song called 26:41 "Help in Daily Living" 26:42 based on the book Help in Daily Living 26:45 which is the last four chapters 26:46 of Ministry of Healing. 26:47 But what we did is we filmed the long version 26:49 just like Steps to Christ, 26:50 it'll be six and half hours long. 26:52 But we also filmed the shorter version, 26:53 a special outreach version. 26:55 And we were really, really excited 26:58 as we film this because we realize that 27:00 this was going to be able to reach a lot more people 27:02 because we'll be able to sell it much more inexpensively 27:05 and so people can hand out a lot more copies. 27:07 We had a very interesting experience 27:09 the one we are filming the very last part of it. 27:12 And I want Anneliese to share a story 27:16 that goes along with that. 27:18 Well, we were filming like he said 27:20 the last segment of Help in Daily Living. 27:22 And the last part of the DVD series is when 27:25 Mr. Lemon gets his final appeal to the audience. 27:29 And now there is something you have to understand 27:31 about filming when we're filming 27:32 we're all sitting in a circle there together 27:34 and one thing our sound guy 27:37 has told us not to do is never, 27:39 ever, ever touch your chest 27:41 because that's where the mike is located 27:43 and if you touch your chest, 27:44 you bump the mike and it distorts the audio. 27:48 So that was something that he told us never to do. 27:50 Unfortunately Mr. Lemon forgot about this 27:53 because he was so engrossed in giving his appeal. 27:56 And he was just preaching his heart out 28:00 and he bumped his chest. 28:01 Now normally real our sound guy would say just cut 28:04 and let's start over again. 28:06 But he heard a voice say, no just let it go. 28:08 And he looked around, he looked the sky, 28:10 he looked at the other camera guys 28:11 but he didn't hear anything 28:13 or he they were busy looking at their own cameras. 28:15 So he just let it go. 28:17 He just let Mr. Lemon keep going 28:19 and he preached this appeal and we have told this 28:22 afterwards that he just so happy 28:24 and this appeal was most touching appeal. 28:26 He had ever heard in his entire life. 28:30 So music really is having a impact on the people 28:33 who were receiving these DVDs. 28:35 Thank you so much for your work and we thank God 28:37 that he has inspired your group, your school to be able 28:40 to make DVDs like this, it can be shared. 28:43 Now if the people want to know more 28:45 is there you have a booth here. 28:47 Number 622. 28:48 Okay, thank you so much, God bless. 28:52 I am weak, but Thou art strong, 29:01 Jesus, keep me from all wrong, 29:10 I'll be satisfied as long As I walk, 29:19 dear Lord, close to Thee. 29:24 Just a closer, just a closer walk, 29:28 just a closer walk O lord with Thee, 29:33 Grant it, Jesus, if you please my Lord 29:38 and Savior, if you please, 29:41 Daily walking close to Thee, 29:46 Daily walking close to Thee, 29:49 Let it be, dear Lord, let it be. 29:58 Through this world of toil and snares, 30:07 If I falter, Lord, who cares? 30:16 Who with me my burden shares? 30:22 None but Thee, dear Lord, none but Thee. 30:30 Just a closer walk O Lord with Thee, 30:38 Grant it, Jesus, if you please my Lord 30:43 and Savior, if you please, 30:47 Daily walking close to Thee, 30:51 Daily walking close to Thee, 30:54 Let it be, dear Lord, let it be. 31:03 When my feeble life is o'er, 31:12 Time for me will be no more, 31:21 On that bright eternal shore 31:28 I will walk, dear Lord, close to Thee. 31:35 Just a closer walk, just a closer walk, 31:39 just a closer walk O Lord with Thee, 31:43 Grant it, Jesus, if you please my Lord 31:48 and Savior, if you please, 31:52 Daily walking close to Thee, 31:59 Let it be, dear Lord, let it be. 32:03 Let it be, dear Lord, let it be. 32:09 Let it be, dear Lord, let it be. 32:38 Good evening. 32:40 This evening we're going to hear from several ASI members 32:43 who are doing big things for God. 32:46 I believe that their testimonies are going 32:48 to inspire and encourage all of us 32:51 and help us define our own mission more clearly. 32:55 I don't know about you, 32:56 I think a lot of us must have grown up 32:58 hearing thrilling reports about Leo Halliwell 33:01 and the Luzeiro river boats. 33:04 How many of you remembered those reports, 33:06 weren't they amazing? 33:09 Well, it was heart breaking when this work had to stop. 33:14 And so I was, I'm so delighted 33:18 to introduce to you Brad Mills 33:20 with Amazon Lifesavers Ministry. 33:24 Brad, what is your mission on the Amazon? 33:28 Well Janet, we are one self supporting ministry 33:31 that works to continue to work 33:33 of the Luzeiro program on the Amazon River. 33:36 We have three launches 33:38 that we carry volunteer, doctor, nurses, dentists 33:43 and people from all different kind of health professions 33:47 including Bible workers, teachers, pastors 33:49 and we go up and down the Amazon taking them 33:51 to the un-reached areas to continue doing the work 33:54 that Luzeiro used to do. 33:57 In fact the first Adventist Church 33:59 in the state of the Amazon 34:01 which is the north area of Brazil was started 34:03 because of the presence of the Luzeiro, 34:06 the boat that came with Leo Halliwell, 34:07 he came with his wife, he came with his crew. 34:09 And we've been able to visit that church 34:12 and we've been able to visit other churches 34:13 in working areas that the boats never were able 34:16 to penetrate and going and using the medical branch 34:19 it's still open into evangelism. 34:21 Isn't that exciting? 34:23 Tell us how did you all get started? 34:26 Yeah well in 2007, the Lord was calling 34:29 many people together, the Lord called my wife 34:31 and I from Tennessee. 34:33 I'm a family nurse practitioner, 34:34 my wife, a registered nursing 34:35 and we felt the Lord calling us to go down and help with this, 34:39 we didn't know how to make the first step. 34:42 And getting in touch with the church, 34:44 we found out that there was a group 34:46 of local Brazilian professionals 34:48 that the Lord had also been impelling to step forward 34:51 and restart the that Luzeiro Program. 34:52 And when we got there, we worked together, 34:55 the Lord providentially opened up so many avenues, 34:59 so that the program could get started. 35:01 In 2007 we started by faith, 35:03 we had no boats and within three years, 35:05 we have three boats working fulltime. 35:07 We have over 200 volunteers, 35:10 local Brazilian professionals that come together, 35:13 they take their holidays or month off of work 35:16 or weekend here or week here. 35:18 And we keep the both staff 35:19 with those healthcare professionals 35:20 going up and down doing that. 35:21 That's fabulous. 35:23 So tell us then what the Amazon Lifesavers, 35:27 what kind of impact that has made 35:30 physically on the people along the Amazon. 35:32 Well, the places hat we get to, 35:35 it's amazing we traveled three days sometimes, 35:37 four days to get to some isolated villages. 35:40 In those villages, well, sometimes 35:41 you get to they haven't seen 35:42 any healthcare provider in over three years. 35:46 Sometimes they'll come in, 35:47 they've never seen a dentist at all in their village 35:50 and we come in and we see so many needs. 35:52 You don't even know where to start. 35:54 We'll show up, we come in our boats. 35:56 We bring all of our volunteers on the boats, 35:58 we setup, we do dental work in 36:00 we're in huts or on the schools 36:03 that they provide sometimes. 36:05 We do medical clinics, we bring in the group of people 36:07 and we have seen so many things as far as 36:10 the medical aspect helping the people there. 36:13 If there is a more complex medical need, 36:15 we'll bring them out, we send some people 36:16 to south Brazil for cardiac surgery 36:19 that we found in some of the infants 36:21 and seeing the health really change their lives. 36:25 And in fact we see as everyone knows at ASI, 36:28 the health message still being the right arm of the gospel. 36:32 And in one area that we went little village 36:34 in the jungle where there was no Adventist presence. 36:37 We did two days of medical clinic 36:39 and the president of the village, 36:41 who was also the Director of the Catholic Church 36:44 came and asked us and he said what church are you from? 36:46 And I said we're Seventh-day Adventists. 36:47 And he said, we would like to see a church 36:51 from your church here in our village, 36:53 would you accept? 36:54 And we said absolutely. 36:56 So we got we've got on our boat 36:58 and we went back to town, we said we'll be back. 36:59 We got a group, we came back with a local pastor. 37:02 We spend a whole month, 37:03 immediately a few days later did evangelism. 37:06 We had 27 people baptized in that very first month 37:09 and we were able to build a church there. 37:12 And that's part of what we do as the church planting 37:15 and building churches and seeing that happening. 37:18 And the exciting part was obviously the Catholic Church 37:21 continued and so the Director 37:23 who had invited us came back to me 37:25 and he said, would you come and preach in my church? 37:28 And I said sure. 37:30 So we went in, Praise the Lord 37:32 and shared a message in the Catholic Church 37:35 and I said here looking at these people 37:36 and I thought they have no idea, 37:38 they're inviting a Seventh-day Adventist 37:39 into the Catholic Church. 37:40 Amen. Amen. 37:42 Oh, that's fabulous. 37:43 So tell us what do you hope to accomplish in the future? 37:47 Well as I said sometimes 37:49 we'll travel three days to get to one village. 37:52 In all during that three days we are passing 37:54 village after village after village. 37:56 And you go why are we traveling so far to get 37:57 to this village and we pass these villages? 38:00 The Amazon is so huge still and we see the need 38:03 to have so many so many more boats, 38:05 so many more volunteers, so many more Bible workers. 38:08 Lord willing next year we'll be starting a Bible school, 38:11 a full time Bible school 38:13 where we have a six month course, 38:14 training the local people to become Bible workers, 38:17 health workers to go in 38:18 and continue the Bible evangelism 38:20 in the un-reached areas. 38:22 We also hope, Lord willing to start 38:24 an aviation program, that we can get in 38:26 with our volunteers more quickly 38:28 where we have let's say 38:30 a healthcare professional from Manaus, 38:32 that might take three days to get to the village. 38:34 Well they have a week 38:35 that they can give if the boats there, 38:37 if the foods there we can fly somebody in, fly a pastor, 38:40 and fly a Bible worker in 38:41 and be more affective with our time. 38:43 Well tell me, I know that you're getting, 38:46 your project is getting 38:48 some of the ASI offerings this year. 38:50 So what do you plan to do with those funds? 38:52 Yeah, we're actually getting a donation from ASI this year, 38:55 Praise the Lord, $20,000 38:57 which we will be using to help build a faster 39:00 and bigger boat that we can get in 39:02 and continue bringing groups 39:03 and we have three boats working out right now 39:05 and as I said we could use over 20 for sure, 20? 39:09 To reach in that area. 39:10 So we are hoping to use 39:11 that money to get another boat going. 39:13 Well, I know you've got lot more stories 39:15 and there is so much more you could tell us. 39:17 So how can we get in touch with you 39:19 and find out more about your project? 39:21 We have a website. 39:22 If you visit us we have a booth here 111, 39:24 Amazon Lifesavers Ministry 39:26 and we have a live website 39:27 that is amazonlifesavers.org. 39:29 We have a DVD here that was just put out, 39:31 you can get it, just a little bit more information. 39:33 We invite you to come by, ask questions 39:35 and come and visit us in the Amazon. 39:37 Okay, thank you so much for sharing with us. 39:39 I have a feeling we are going to be hearing 39:41 much more from this project in the coming years 39:44 and may be even 50 or a 100 or 200 boats. 39:50 Well now and then you hear about a ministry, 39:53 where so much is going on 39:55 that is hard to take it in. 39:58 And that's kind of how I felt, 40:00 when I spoke with Dr. Nicolae Dan of, 40:06 I'm gonna say this right, Herghelia, 40:09 Herghelia Institute in Romania, 40:12 joining him is Steven Grabiner, 40:14 the new president elect of OCI. 40:17 Now I'm going to tell you 40:18 just a little bit about Herghelia, 40:20 and you can correct me if I'm wrong, right. 40:23 Okay, thank you. 40:25 It's really amazing they have a lifestyle center 40:29 and I want you to hear this, 40:30 they have about 50 patients per session 40:36 and 22 sessions per year. 40:39 Now that's a lot of people 40:40 going through that program. 40:42 They also have one year 40:43 Medical Missionary Training School. 40:45 They have a monthly health publication, 40:48 health publication, life and health right? 40:52 There is some, those are other things, that's not all, 40:54 but I just want to ask you with all this going on, 40:58 what is your impact on the community? 41:02 Well we have over 13,000 patients 41:04 who are out there promoting Herghelia 41:06 and I guess unselfish love is the best marketing tool 41:11 and that's why I think my colleagues 41:13 are exposing Herghelia, this kind of love. 41:17 And then we have this health magazine 41:19 which goes through all the corners of the country. 41:22 And actually it's a joint venture with the church 41:25 which we have 50-50. 41:28 And goes every month out and tells about our word, 41:31 but I would like to speak about new opportunity 41:34 which just last September, I've been invited 41:38 to teaching the local medical school. 41:40 Listen to this, this is amazing. 41:43 You to say it again, 41:44 I want to make sure everyone got that. 41:45 In the local medical school 41:47 they have a Nutrition and Dietetics Department. 41:50 Now this is a State College right, State University? 41:53 Yeah, it's a State University, 41:54 it has 4,000 students 41:57 and they started this new program on dietetics. 42:02 I have been involved in designing their curriculum 42:04 but I never heard them back three years ago 42:06 and now in September, the dean called me 42:09 and he said for the third year, I would like you to 42:13 teach vegetarian nutrition which I did. 42:15 And it's amazing to see how the minds of 50 young people 42:20 changed during six months of teaching. 42:23 This is 50 secular young people. 42:24 Yes, yes and then the second semester, 42:28 I thought I'll be free, but the dean asked me, 42:30 you know, I want you to teach introduction to nutrition 42:33 which is the first year of learning and another course, 42:37 so I had to prepare every week three lectures. 42:41 And the reason I got involved is 42:44 because I see a lot of potential when you work 42:46 with the first dietician in the country 42:48 to have impact on many people. 42:50 When I share with Dr. Hart Wolinda, 42:52 the Wolinda has been involving these as their health. 42:55 He said well this has the impact to raise the life 42:59 expectancy in Romania for with ten years. 43:01 Then on the top of teaching the dean asked me 43:03 to design the curriculum for the master degree. 43:09 Oh, this is just so amazing and yeah, did you? 43:12 I like that clap, he is designing 43:15 the master's program of dietetics, right? 43:18 Then, you know, it was approved by the state, 43:19 it will go on this fall and already another University 43:22 for Romania asked for, you know, 43:25 doing that curriculum too. 43:28 So this is-- you are scheduled 43:29 to receive $10,000 in the ASI-- 43:32 Yes, they are asking us for th e diet 43:34 kitchen in the city, the school doesn't have a lab 43:38 for their, you know, practical nutrition, 43:41 cooking classes and so on and so forth 43:43 and ASI is helping us with part, 43:45 we will need another 20,000 43:47 to that diet kitchen in our city center in the city. 43:51 Okay, well this isn't all. 43:54 I understand there is more 43:56 and now in Christian service it tell, 43:58 we are told that the Lord will give to our sanitariums 44:01 whose work is already established and opportunity 44:03 to cooperate with him in assisting 44:05 newly established plans. 44:07 Now have you had any such opportunities? 44:10 Yes, and you know I can talk about 44:13 Moldova Republic, Bulgaria, but let's talk about Israel 44:16 and these are sensible issues so I will use not, 44:18 I will not use the lingo. 44:20 I was asked to go there-- To Israel. 44:22 And advice, you know, to assess the needs of the population. 44:26 And we have a training in 2009, 44:30 we trained about 35 people and out of those 44:32 developed nice team of professionals. 44:36 I wish we have these kind 44:37 of quality people in other countries. 44:39 And they are ready to go, 44:40 they have been trained in Romania, 44:41 my sister Magdalena was involved with that 44:44 and they are ready to go. 44:46 They run a session actually last October in Israel 44:49 with real patients, in a, caboose, 44:50 we rented the caboose. 44:52 And now we found the property, I'd like Steven, 44:54 to tell us a little bit about it. 44:57 As Nick mentioned Herghelia 44:59 and others have been working in Israel 45:01 and Israel is a tremendously needy country. 45:04 We have been looking to freight property 45:06 to start a lifestyle center, but it's very difficult. 45:09 Ninety percent of all the land 45:11 is owned by the government. 45:12 But just recently Charles Cleveland made a trip, 45:14 Nick recently made trip and we found a piece of property 45:17 that's privately owned, 45:19 only ten percent of the land is like that. 45:21 It's a beautiful property, it's already a guest house, 45:24 has room for 18 guests, has a sauna, 45:28 wet sauna, dry sauna, Jacuzzi. 45:30 It's almost a turnkey operation 45:32 to start a lifestyle center. 45:34 And we are at the Lake of Galilee. 45:36 And it's near the Lake of Galilee, 45:38 near the Jordan River as well. 45:40 So we would solicit the prayers and help of ASI, 45:43 as we explore this property. 45:46 I've a special interest in it 45:47 being from a Jewish family, 45:49 it's really exciting to see ministries working together 45:52 and we believe that next year this time 45:54 will be a health center in the country of Israel. 45:56 Amen. 46:00 Amen, So how can we find out more about 46:04 Herghelia's mission especially to Israel? 46:08 We're at the isle 600 at the end of it, 46:12 so please stop by. 46:13 Okay, thank you so much. 46:15 How many of you will pray for this project? 46:18 Amen. Thank you so much. 46:22 Another area that's very close 46:24 to my heart is the Continent of Africa. 46:27 My son Ted was born in Africa, 46:29 after we returned to the States, 46:31 we lived in Bakersfield where I became good friends 46:34 with a talented, dynamic lady Celeste Lee. 46:39 And tonight it's my privilege to introduce 46:42 Celeste you as well as to another friend 46:44 I just met Gwen Edwards, 46:47 and they're not going to be 46:49 telling you about Bakersfield. 46:52 Instead they are going to be 46:54 sharing with us, what's happening with 46:55 the Maasai Development Project in Kenya, Africa. 46:59 So, Gwen in a sentence what is the 47:02 Maasai Development Project doing in Kenya? 47:06 We are changing lives in Kenya, one person at a time. 47:10 I like that. So how did it all get started? 47:14 Well in the '80s or '90s, 1990s 47:20 Gwen and a friend of both of ours Jan Meharry 47:24 actually started making friends 47:25 with some other Maasai ladies that lived behind 47:28 Gwen and they just went and did the womanly thing, 47:32 you know, help the babies, 47:33 talked about the children and eventually brought water 47:36 when they needed water 47:37 and took the children to the doctor. 47:40 Just did these kinds of things 47:42 and from that a friendship developed 47:44 and confidence was won, 47:46 where they were able to do more. 47:48 When I had the opportunity of going over in 1998, 47:53 we decided to start building this a little bit more 47:56 and we built the idea from 47:58 Ministry of Healing page 143, where Christ method alone 48:02 will give true success ho w the savior mingled 48:05 as one who desired others good and showed sympathy 48:08 and then minister to their needs, 48:10 winning their confidence and then said follow me. 48:12 So, that's been the basis of how this all started 48:15 and how we continue to work. 48:17 All right, that sounds very interesting. 48:19 So what's happening today? 48:22 We have multiple programs, 48:24 part of the one main thrust of the program 48:27 are mission trips that we organize 48:29 three times a year in March, July and October. 48:32 And I think of a story that happened 48:36 on one of our mission trips a year ago, 48:38 that really exemplifies what MDP is about 48:41 in changing lives one person at a time. 48:44 A year ago, we were at a mission trip 48:46 on our last clinic in Kenya, 48:48 all of this happens in Kenya. 48:50 And we were at a school holding our clinics, 48:52 it's our last day and there was some, an American man 48:56 on the trip who talked about an organization 48:59 that he had been fund raising for, 49:01 that is his profession is to fund raise 49:02 and he had just been with a group of women that lived, 49:06 have lived abused lives 49:08 and are in actual hiding situations, 49:10 they live in an institutional place. 49:13 And he then told us that the women said, 49:17 if there was anyone 49:18 that he met during the trip in Kenya, 49:20 that exemplified what they had gone for 49:23 or what they are now were living and stood for that 49:26 they would like to support someone. 49:28 So our last day of clinic, there was a young girl 49:31 brought to us by the headmaster of the school 49:33 and she-- we have a picture of her. 49:36 When I saw her she looked very, very old. 49:40 She had just gone through a very critical situation, 49:43 her 13 year old sister had gone through circumcision 49:47 and preparing her to be married, 49:49 so that the father could collect the dowry. 49:52 The 10 year old girl, that you see a picture 49:55 of right now watched her sister go through 49:58 circumcision and then died because she blooded out, 50:00 they couldn't stop the bleeding. 50:02 So, the chief of the area had investigated 50:06 the situation and had the father and the woman 50:10 who performed the circumcision put into jail. 50:13 And continued to investigate and found out 50:16 a little bit later that now the uncle was intending 50:19 to have the 10-year-old circumcised 50:21 in order she could be married to the person that her 50:24 13-year-old sister was going to be married too. 50:26 And then he could collect the dowry 50:28 and get the father out of prison. 50:31 So the headmaster of the school asked 50:33 could we help in this situation? 50:35 And it was an exact match, she was a young girl 50:37 who needed hope, who needed a changed life. 50:40 And the our lay pastor's stepped in 50:43 and then was able to help, connect the two people together 50:48 and now she is in our rescue center 50:50 and I'll let Celeste tell us about that rescue center? 50:54 We have a rescue center that's on 15 acres 50:57 where we house these girls, that are what we call 51:00 high risk and we want to thank ASI for the funds 51:04 that they are going to give us this year, 51:06 because that will build the education center, 51:10 that will be used by the entire community 51:12 for literacy classes, for tailoring classes, 51:16 all kinds of things that will benefit the community. 51:19 So we want to thank you for that. 51:21 Okay now that sounds just almost unbelievable 51:24 what's happening over there 51:26 and I know that's just one of many stories. 51:28 But tell me how is all of this work impacting 51:31 the people spiritually? 51:33 Once you follow the principle 51:35 that I spoke about at the beginning of mingling 51:37 with the people and winning their confidence. 51:40 Then they want to hear what you have to say about Christ 51:42 and when we have these girls, 51:43 we get the opportunity to witness to them, 51:46 we have worships with them. 51:48 Many of them were baptized last March 51:50 and we also make an impact in the adults 51:52 in the community in the same way. 51:54 And we have had many-many baptisms 51:57 over the years as a result. 51:58 So how many at risk girls do you have 52:01 in your home right now, in this hostel? 52:04 In, we sponsor close to a 100, but in this hostel, 52:07 we have about 50. 52:09 All right. So tell us how can ASI members 52:11 become involved in your mission? 52:13 ASI members can become involved in a lot of ways 52:16 from as simple as donating a bottle of-- 52:19 Children's vitamins. 52:20 To sponsoring a girl, sponsoring a lay pastor, 52:24 going on a mission trip, providing more funds 52:27 for other buildings, for a well 52:29 all kinds of things that are needed. 52:32 That's how you can get involved. 52:34 And how can they connect with you? 52:36 We have a booth here it's at 128. 52:39 126. 126, thank you and also our website 52:43 is www.4mdp.org. 52:53 Facebook is another good way. 52:55 You can actually see pictures 52:56 of what's been happening on Facebook. 52:57 Just Google Maasai Development Project. 52:59 And you'll find something, yes. 53:01 Okay, well thank you so much for being instruments 53:04 in God's hands to change lives one person at a time. 53:08 Thank you. Thank you so much. 53:23 In shady, green pastures, so rich and so sweet 53:34 God leads His dear children along 53:45 Where the water's cool flow bathes the weary one's feet 53:56 God leads His dear children along 54:08 Some through the waters, some through the flood 54:19 Some through the fire, but all through the blood 54:30 Some through great sorrow, but God gives a song 54:42 In the night season and all the day long 55:01 Sometimes on the mount where the sun shines so bright 55:11 God leads His dear children along 55:21 Sometimes in the valley, in darkest of night 55:32 God leads His dear children along 55:44 Some through the waters, some through the flood 55:54 Some through the fire, but all through the blood 56:10 Some through great sorrow, but God gives a song 56:22 In the night season 56:35 In the night season 56:44 God leads His dear children along 57:04 Amen. |
