MINE, BUT HE HAS BECOME MORE AND
00:00:56.40\00:01:03.66

00:01:18.10\00:01:24.13
PRESIDENT OF
GOSPEL OUTREACH CANADA.
00:01:27.26\00:01:30.90
YOU HAVE ALREADY EXPLAINED
TO ME THAT YOU'VE GOT DREAMS
00:01:30.90\00:01:34.46
FOR THE FUTURE FOR
GOSPEL OUTREACH CANADA.
00:01:34.46\00:01:39.16
MANY, BUT IT IS A HUGE AREA THAT
WE ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR, FOR THE
WHOLE CONTINENT OF AFRICA OVER 1
00:01:39.16\00:01:45.23
BILLION PEOPLE, 54 COUNTRIES
AND WE ARE IN 13 OF THE 54.
00:01:49.30\00:01:56.10
WOW.
00:01:56.10\00:01:57.80
SO, WE'VE GOT SOME FAITHFUL
REGIONAL DIRECTORS NAME THEM FOR
US: GOSPEL OUTREACH CANADA HAS
00:01:57.80\00:02:03.50
THREE REGIONAL DIRECTORS,
DAVE CROOK, ED EISELE, AND GLEN
00:02:06.60\00:02:14.23
WINTERMEYER. WE'VE HAD ALL 3 OF
THOSE ON OUR PROGRAMS HERE AND
VIEWERS WILL PROBABLY REMEMBER
00:02:14.23\00:02:21.76
THE ACCOUNTS THEY HAVE BROUGHT
US FROM THE COUNTRIES IN WHICH
THEY ARE WORKING BUT THE HUGE
00:02:21.76\00:02:27.06
CHALLENGE IS 41 MORE COUNTRIES
ON THE CONTINENT OF AFRICA.
00:02:27.06\00:02:34.00
I WAS THINKING JUST AS I HAVE
BEEN SITTING HERE WITH YOU THAT
MY WIFE AND I, WE ARE TAPING
00:02:34.00\00:02:39.13
THIS IN LATE SEPTEMBER, 2012, MY
WIFE AND I RECENTLY RETURNED
FROM SOUTH AFRICA AND THAT'S AN
00:02:39.13\00:02:45.20
ENTIRELY DIFFERENT WORLD FROM
THE CENTRAL PART OF AFRICA,
LARGELY, OR WEST AFRICA, YES.
00:02:47.26\00:02:53.30
BUT THERE ARE SOME REAL
CHALLENGES TO THE GOSPEL IN
SOUTH AFRICA AND THERE ARE
00:02:55.63\00:03:00.53
PLACES WHERE GOSPEL OUTREACH
COULD BE INVOLVED IN SOUTH
AFRICA, I'M SURE AS WELL.
00:03:00.53\00:03:06.03
YES.
00:03:06.03\00:03:07.80
WELL, I SAID AT THE OUTSET THAT
I WAS GLAD TO CONNECT WITH YOU
HERE AGAIN AND I HAVE LEARNED TO
00:03:07.80\00:03:13.10
LIKE YOU MORE BECAUSE OF THE
WONDERFUL DAUGHTER YOU HAVE,
DWIGHT, WHO IS ONE OF OUR
00:03:15.36\00:03:22.26
PASTORS AT LOMA LINDA UNIVERSITY
CHURCH IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA,
00:03:22.26\00:03:26.83
SHAWNA CAMPBELL. I JUST
HESITATED FOR A SECOND THERE.
00:03:26.83\00:03:34.40
SHE IS DOING A REMARKABLE
WORK AS OUR PASTOR FOR FAMILY
00:03:34.40\00:03:40.43
MINISTRY. YES.
00:03:40.43\00:03:41.36
EVERYTHING SHE IS
DOING WE RESPOND WITH "WOW".
00:03:41.36\00:03:43.86
WE ARE BLESSED AND SHE AS YOU
KNOW, EXPERIENCED SOMETHING VERY
SPECIAL FOR HER AND NEW IN HER
00:03:43.86\00:03:49.90
MINISTRY JUST A COUPLE OF WEEKS
AGO NOW WHEN SHE BAPTIZED A
YOUNG LADY AT OUR WORSHIP
00:03:54.90\00:04:02.13
SERVICE AND WE WERE ALL SO
BLESSED WITH SHAWNA'S LEADERSHIP
IN THAT REGARD AS SHE EXPLAINED
00:04:02.13\00:04:09.56
HOW SHE HAD WORKED WITH THIS
FAMILY WITH THIS YOUNG LADY, A
TEENAGER I BELIEVE.
00:04:09.56\00:04:15.20
YES.
00:04:15.20\00:04:16.20
DID YOU GET TO SEE THAT?
00:04:16.20\00:04:17.73
I DIDN'T, YOU KNOW WE WERE AWAY
AT CHURCH AND SOMEHOW WHEN WE
00:04:17.73\00:04:23.26
WATCHED IT LATER,
THE BAPTISM WAS LEFT OUT.
00:04:28.06\00:04:30.06
I GUESS FOR TIME REASONS.
00:04:30.06\00:04:31.76
WELL, I'LL TELL YOU.
00:04:31.76\00:04:33.50
SO WE MISSED IT.
00:04:33.50\00:04:35.20
AS A FATHER, YOU AND YOUR WIFE,
YOU PARENTS DESERVE TO SEE THAT,
SO IF YOU JUST LET ME KNOW
00:04:35.20\00:04:41.33
SOMEHOW WE WILL ARRANGE
FOR YOU TO GET A COPY OF THAT.
00:04:43.56\00:04:46.03
IN FACT, AFTER THIS INTERVIEW WE
ARE GOING ON DOWN TO LOMA LINDA
AND SO WE WILL BE SHOWN IT.
00:04:46.03\00:04:53.93
OH GOOD.
00:04:53.93\00:04:55.03
ALRIGHT.
00:04:55.03\00:04:56.03
YOU'LL GET TO
SEE IT AT THAT TIME.
00:04:56.03\00:04:59.93
WELL, WE ARE HERE IN THE CONTEXT
OF GOSPEL OUTREACH AND EVERY
CONTACT WE HAVE IS A CHALLENGE
00:04:59.93\00:05:06.03
BUT THERE ARE WONDERFUL REWARDS
AS WELL AS WE SEE THE WAY GOD IS
LEADING IN THE GOSPEL OUTREACH
00:05:10.43\00:05:16.50
MINISTRY ACROSS THE PLANET.
00:05:19.60\00:05:23.13
AND OUR PRIMARY TERRITORY, AS
ALL OF OUR VIEWERS ALREADY KNOW
I'M SURE, IS THE 10/40 WINDOW.
00:05:23.13\00:05:29.20
AND YOU HAVE HAD EXPERIENCE IN
THAT 10/40 WINDOW AS YOU HAVE
BEEN AN EDUCATOR IN EGYPT FOR A
00:05:31.46\00:05:37.53
NUMBER OF YEARS.
00:05:40.66\00:05:41.93
TELL US A BIT ABOUT WHERE
YOU WERE YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES
00:05:41.93\00:05:45.63
THERE. WELL, IT WAS MY WIFE AND
I ARE PRIVILEGED TO SPEND 10
YEARS AT NILE UNION ACADEMY
00:05:45.63\00:05:51.66
WHICH IS JUST OUTSIDE OF CAIRO.
00:05:54.76\00:05:57.70
AND IT WAS A VERY WONDERFUL
EXPERIENCE TELLING THOSE YOUNG
PEOPLE, MOST OF THEM NOT
00:05:57.70\00:06:03.83
ADVENTISTS, TELLING ALL ABOUT
THE BIBLE, AND ALL ABOUT JESUS
AND WE DIDN'T HAVE ANY MUSLIMS
00:06:07.63\00:06:13.70
BECAUSE OF, YOU KNOW, IT IS
AGAINST THE LAW TO PROSELYTIZE
ANYONE FROM THE ISLAMIC WORLD
00:06:19.43\00:06:25.50
BUT WE DID HAVE MUCH CONTACT
WITH PEOPLE AND WHEN THEY ASKED
AND SHOWED INTEREST WE CERTAINLY
00:06:30.06\00:06:37.76
CAN RESPOND AND THAT WE DID.
00:06:37.76\00:06:41.33
YOU HAVE UNDERSCORED SOMETHING I
THINK THAT'S VERY IMPORTANT FOR
ALL OF US, NO MATTER WHERE WE
00:06:41.33\00:06:47.23
LIVE IN THE WORLD AND
THAT IS BUILDING RELATIONSHIPS.
00:06:47.23\00:06:51.96
THAT'S WHAT I READ BETWEEN
THE LINES OF WHAT YOU ARE SAYING
00:06:51.96\00:06:57.73
HERE. EVEN THOUGH YOU DIDN'T DO
WHAT WE SOMETIMES IDENTIFY AS
WE'VE GOT TO BE EVANGELISTS AND
00:06:57.73\00:07:04.36
WE'VE GOT TO TELL IT AND
SOMETIMES I CRUDELY SAY WE TRY
TO GET PEOPLE TO SIT STILL WHILE
00:07:04.36\00:07:10.40
WE INSTILL AND IT DOESN'T
WORK IN ANY CULTURE, TO DO THAT
00:07:14.36\00:07:19.63
REALLY. NO.
00:07:19.63\00:07:20.63
BUT WHAT ALWAYS
WORKS IS BEING FRIENDLY,
00:07:20.63\00:07:23.66
THAT'S RIGHT, IN BUILDING
RELATIONSHIPS WITH PEOPLE.
00:07:23.66\00:07:26.33
AND SO YOU AND YOUR WIFE
REMEMBER, I AM SURE, THOSE
00:07:26.33\00:07:32.00
RELATIONSHIPS. YES, WE REALLY
APPRECIATED THE FRIENDSHIP OF AN
ARCHITECT WHO LIVED VERY CLOSE
00:07:32.00\00:07:38.06
TO THE SCHOOL. HE WAS VERY, VERY
IMPRESSED WITH THE ADVENTIST
00:07:44.46\00:07:49.56
HEALTH MESSAGE. HE WAS IMPRESSED
ALSO WITH THE HONESTY AND
MORALITY AND SINCERITY OF
00:07:49.56\00:07:55.63
ADVENTISTS AND HE HAS BEEN
A FRIEND OF OUR ACADEMY THERE.
00:07:59.93\00:08:02.60
HE HAS BUILT OUR GIRLS DORMITORY
AND THEN LATER HE BUILT OUR
INDUSTRIAL ARTS COMPLEX AT NILE
00:08:02.60\00:08:08.66
UNION ACADEMY.
00:08:12.63\00:08:14.20
HE HAS JUST HELPED THE SCHOOL,
BENT OVER BACKWARDS TO HELP THE
SCHOOL AND YOU KNOW,
00:08:14.20\00:08:20.90
HE IS A MUSLIM BELIEVER.
00:08:20.90\00:08:22.16
HE CALLS HIMSELF
AN ADVENTIST MUSLIM.
00:08:22.16\00:08:26.00
AND THAT IS NO
DISRESPECT TO EITHER.
00:08:26.00\00:08:29.80
NO.
00:08:29.80\00:08:30.80
NO.
00:08:30.80\00:08:32.50
AND OF COURSE, WE'VE TALKED ALL
ABOUT MANY TOPICS AND HE IS
REALLY QUESTIONING WHETHER OR
00:08:32.50\00:08:37.86
NOT GOD WOULD TORTURE PEOPLE IN
FIRE FOREVER AND EVER AND EVER
00:08:40.16\00:08:46.23
AND EVER. AND OF COURSE, THAT IS
THE TEACHING OF MOST RELIGIONS
BUT WE'VE BEEN CHALLENGING HIM
00:08:49.16\00:08:55.56
ON THAT AND A NUMBER OF
OTHER ISSUES AND HE SAYS,
00:08:55.56\00:08:59.46
YOU KNOW YOU'VE ALMOST
GOT ME CONVINCED ABOUT THAT.
00:08:59.46\00:09:02.26
IT JUST MAKES SENSE TO MY COMMON
SENSE BUT YET HIS THEOLOGY SAYS
00:09:02.26\00:09:10.16
DIFFERENTLY. SO, WE JUST HAD A
WONDERFUL RELATIONSHIP WITH THIS
BROTHER AND I'VE TOLD HIM THAT
00:09:10.16\00:09:16.23
I'M AN ADVENTIST MUSLIM TOO.
00:09:18.63\00:09:20.86
SO WE, BECAUSE MANY OF THE
THINGS THEY TEACH AND BELIEVE
AND LIVE I RESPECT VERY MUCH.
00:09:20.86\00:09:26.93
NOW YOU EXPLAINED TO ME THAT YOU
AND YOUR WIFE WITHIN THE LAST
COUPLE OF YEARS ANYWAY, RETURNED
00:09:30.23\00:09:37.36
TO EGYPT FOR A
VERY SPECIAL OCCASION.
00:09:37.36\00:09:40.16
YES, WE WERE
THERE JUST 2 MONTHS AGO.
00:09:40.16\00:09:43.36
JUST TWO MONTHS AGO?
00:09:43.36\00:09:44.96
YES, WE WERE ASKED TO BE
THE GRAD SPEAKERS FOR THIS YEARS
00:09:44.96\00:09:51.33
GRADUATING CLASS. OH WOW.
00:09:51.33\00:09:52.33
WHAT A PRIVILEGE.
00:09:52.33\00:09:54.03
SO IT WAS OUR PRIVILEGE TO COME
BACK OVER AND DO THAT AND OF
COURSE, WE WERE ALSO STARTING
00:09:54.03\00:10:00.86
OUR FIRST GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKER
IN EGYPT WAS JUST 3 MONTHS IN
THE FIELD AND HE USED TO BE A
00:10:00.86\00:10:06.93
FORMER STUDENT OF OURS.
00:10:11.03\00:10:12.43
IS THAT RIGHT?
00:10:12.43\00:10:14.20
SO WE KNOW THIS YOUNG MAN VERY,
VERY WELL AND WE OF COURSE, MADE
TIME TO VISIT WITH HIM ON SITE
00:10:14.20\00:10:19.50
WHERE HE IS IN TOWN IN
UPPER EGYPT WHERE HE IS LOCATED
00:10:22.36\00:10:26.20
AND IT WAS REALLY A
WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE.
00:10:26.20\00:10:30.83
GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKERS ARE
DEDICATED PEOPLE WHO ARE ALERT
TO THE SOCIAL AND CULTURAL
00:10:30.83\00:10:36.90
REALITIES OF WHERE THEY ARE SO I
AM CERTAIN THAT THIS NEW GOSPEL
OUTREACH WORKER WHEREVER HE IS,
00:10:42.23\00:10:48.30
IS BUILDING RELATIONSHIPS
WITH THE PEOPLE WHO LIVE THERE.
00:10:51.70\00:10:55.40
YES, HE TOOK US AROUND AND
SHOWED US ALL HIS FRIENDS, ALL
THE SHOPKEEPERS AND OF COURSE
00:10:55.40\00:11:00.46
BEING A YOUNG PERSON, IN FACT,
RIGHT IN THE CHURCH THERE HE HAS
GOT 2 ROOMS; ONE THAT HE CAN USE
00:11:00.46\00:11:06.53
FOR THE SANCTUARY PART FOR
PEOPLE TO SIT WHILE HE HOLDS
SABBATH SERVICES BUT THEN THE
00:11:10.00\00:11:17.76
OTHER SIDE HE IS GOING
TO MAKE INTO A YOUTH CENTER.
00:11:17.76\00:11:22.50
BRING IN A PINGPONG TABLE AND
SOME COUCHES AND MUSIC AND SO ON
AND THEY ARE GOING TO HANG OUT
00:11:22.50\00:11:28.56
THERE AT THE CHURCH.
00:11:30.73\00:11:31.86
WOW.
00:11:31.86\00:11:32.86
SO HE'S GOT 3 OR 4
YOUNG PEOPLE ALREADY.
00:11:32.86\00:11:35.50
YOUNG PEOPLE ATTRACT YOUNG
PEOPLE AND HE IS JUST BEGINNING
TO MOVE, YOU KNOW, IN THIS AREA.
00:11:35.50\00:11:41.56
SO THERE IS ALREADY A CHURCH
IN THE COMMUNITY WHERE HE IS
00:11:43.53\00:11:46.63
WORKING? YES, YES THE CHURCH HAD
A BUILDING BUT IT'S BEEN DECADES
00:11:46.63\00:11:53.83
NOW SINCE THERE
WAS ANY WORK THERE.
00:11:53.83\00:11:56.20
THE WORK IS COMPLETELY DEAD.
00:11:56.20\00:11:57.63
NO WORSHIP SERVICES?
00:11:57.63\00:11:59.40
NOW WITH HIM WE ARE RESURRECTING
THE WORK IN THIS TOWN BUT YES,
THERE WAS AN OLD BUILDING HE HAD
00:11:59.40\00:12:04.76
TO CLEAN IT OUT AND PAINT IT AND
ALL OF THAT YOU KNOW, TO GET IT
00:12:08.16\00:12:14.50
READY. HOW MUCH ARE WE PAYING
HIM A MONTH TO BE OUR GOSPEL
OUTREACH WORKER THERE?
00:12:14.50\00:12:21.90
CAN YOU PUT THAT IN DOLLARS?
00:12:21.90\00:12:23.40
WELL, IT WOULD YES IT WOULD BE
ABOUT 1500 POUNDS DIVIDE BY 5,
00:12:23.40\00:12:29.50
SO $300 A MONTH? THAT'S
PROBABLY WHAT IT WOULD BE ABOUT.
00:12:33.26\00:12:37.80
WELL, I DON'T THINK THERE ARE
MANY OF US WHO ARE GOING TO GO
00:12:37.80\00:12:41.66
VERY FAR OR DO VERY
MUCH FOR $300 A MONTH.
00:12:41.66\00:12:44.43
NO.
00:12:44.43\00:12:46.06
AND TO BEGIN KIND OF LIKE A
PIONEER WORK IN A PLACE WHERE
NOTHING HAS BEEN HAPPENING.
00:12:46.06\00:12:51.50
I AM GLAD TO CONTRIBUTE TO A
GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKER IN EGYPT.
00:12:54.70\00:13:00.16
YES.
00:13:00.16\00:13:01.16
COULD YOU USE ANYMORE?
00:13:01.16\00:13:03.83
YES, THE CHURCH IN CAIRO HAS
TAKEN AN OLD ORPHANAGE THAT THEY
HAD AND THE ORPHANAGE WORK IS
00:13:03.83\00:13:09.90
FINISHED SO THEY HAVE CONVERTED
IT INTO A SCHOOL FOR THE
00:13:13.56\00:13:19.23
SUDANESE. BECAUSE AS YOU KNOW,
THERE IS A LOT OF TROUBLE IN
SUDAN STILL AND THEY ESTIMATE
00:13:19.23\00:13:25.26
THAT CAIRO CONTAINS A MILLION
SUDANESE THAT HAVE FLED FROM THE
00:13:27.96\00:13:34.03
WAR IN SUDAN. BUT NOT MUCH
IS BEING DONE TO HELP SUDANESE.
00:13:36.96\00:13:40.96
EDUCATIONALLY WHY YOU KNOW, TO
EMPLOY THEM, TO GIVE THEM
HOSPITAL BENEFITS THE SUDANESE
00:13:40.96\00:13:48.13
ARE SORT OF ON THEIR OWN THERE.
00:13:48.13\00:13:50.13
SO THE ADVENTIST CHURCH HAS
TAKEN THIS ORPHANAGE AND HAS
MADE IT INTO A SUDANESE SCHOOL.
00:13:50.13\00:13:57.06
WE HAVE ENOUGH SUDANESE
TEACHERS, ADVENTIST SUDANESE
TEACHERS TO TEACH BUT WE COULD,
00:13:57.06\00:14:04.30
YOU KNOW, THEY ARE
TEACHING FOR NOTHING.
00:14:04.30\00:14:07.03
THEY ARE TRYING TO LIVE; THEY
HAVE FAMILIES SO WE NEED TO
SPONSOR SOME OF THEM.
00:14:07.03\00:14:13.10
ONE MILLION POPULATION AND
THEY ARE LARGELY REFUGEES THEN?
00:14:15.36\00:14:18.10
THEY ARE REFUGEES AND THEY
ARE JUST LEFT ON THEIR OWN.
00:14:18.10\00:14:21.80
SO WE HAVE A SCHOOL OF
ABOUT 300, IS THAT RIGHT?
00:14:21.80\00:14:25.60
IN FACT THEY ARE
VERY MUCH CROWDED THERE.
00:14:25.60\00:14:29.36
WE NEED A WORKER THAT
WILL WORK WITH THE FAMILIES.
00:14:29.36\00:14:32.90
THESE ARE ALL NOT ADVENTISTS AT
ALL AND SO WE NEED SOMEONE TO
WORK WITH THE FAMILIES.
00:14:32.90\00:14:38.93
THEY HAVE A LOT OF QUESTIONS.
00:14:43.20\00:14:44.33
THEY HAVE A LOT OF NEEDS.
00:14:44.33\00:14:46.03
WE NEED TO HELP THE TEACHERS WHO
ARE TEACHING FOR NOTHING OR FOR
VERY LITTLE IN THE SCHOOL.
00:14:46.03\00:14:51.90
DID YOU VISIT THE
SCHOOL WHILE YOU WERE THERE?
00:14:54.56\00:14:57.03
YES, OH YES AND IT WAS THERE ALL
THE 10 YEARS THAT WE WERE THERE
00:14:57.03\00:15:03.43
TOO. THE SUDANESE SCHOOL?
00:15:03.43\00:15:04.43
YES.
00:15:04.43\00:15:05.43
I SEE.
00:15:05.43\00:15:07.13
WHILE THEY GET SOME HELP FROM
SOME GOVERNMENTS, YOU KNOW, LIKE
THE GOVERNMENT OF SWEDEN AND
00:15:07.13\00:15:10.50
THINGS LIKE THAT HAVE
CONTRIBUTED AT TIMES TO BUY
00:15:10.50\00:15:16.56
DESKS AND SO ON. THE SUPPORT FOR
THE TEACHERS IS NIL YOU KNOW AND
THE LOCAL FIELD DOESN'T REALLY
00:15:21.16\00:15:27.20
HAVE MONEY TO BE ABLE TO SUPPORT
THOSE TEACHERS SO THEY ARE JUST
00:15:29.83\00:15:33.50
ON THEIR OWN. ARE YOU ABLE TO
EXPRESS TO US THE MEMBERSHIP OF
THAT UNION CONFERENCE THERE?
00:15:33.50\00:15:39.56
YES, THE MEMBERSHIP IS SOMEWHERE
AROUND 1000 BUT MOST HAVE MOVED
AWAY BECAUSE OF TROUBLE,
00:15:43.13\00:15:49.20
DIFFICULTY OF GETTING JOBS SO
PROBABLY YOU KNOW ON A SABBATH
MORNING IF WE WERE TO COUNT
00:15:54.43\00:16:00.53
AMONG THE 10 CHURCHES WE HAVE IN
EGYPT, YOU MIGHT COME UP WITH
300 MEMBERS IN ATTENDANCE ON AN
00:16:02.56\00:16:08.63
AVERAGE SABBATH MORNING.
00:16:12.30\00:16:13.73
WOW.
00:16:13.73\00:16:14.86
THEY WOULD ALL FIT INTO ONE
OF OUR CHURCHES BACK IN CANADA.
00:16:14.86\00:16:19.43
SO, BUT THERE AREA LOT OF
EGYPTIAN BELIEVERS AND
ADVENTISTS IN OTHER PARTS OF THE
00:16:21.80\00:16:28.90
WORLD BECAUSE IT IS DIFFICULT,
BECAUSE OF THE DIFFICULTY OF
00:16:28.90\00:16:32.70
LIVING THERE. YES.
00:16:32.70\00:16:34.23
YOU KNOW YOU'VE MENTIONED THE
ORPHANAGE THAT HAS BEEN
TRANSFORMED INTO A SCHOOL.
00:16:34.23\00:16:39.76
I, THERE WAS A LADY WHO
WAS KIND OF THE OPERATOR,
00:16:44.10\00:16:51.10
THE MOTHER OF THAT
ORPHANAGE YEARS AND YEARS AGO.
00:16:51.10\00:16:54.96
DID YOU REMEMBER THAT HISTORY?
00:16:54.96\00:16:56.16
YES AND WE MET HER.
00:16:56.16\00:16:57.80
SHE IS A GERMAN
LADY, MAMA KRUEGER.
00:16:57.80\00:17:03.26
I MET HER YEARS AND YEARS AGO ON
MY VISIT TO EGYPT WHILE SHE WAS
OPERATING AND SHE WAS INDEED
00:17:03.26\00:17:09.33
MAMA KRUEGER TO THESE CHILDREN.
00:17:12.53\00:17:15.43
YES.
00:17:15.43\00:17:16.43
SHE WORKED THERE, I
THINK SERVED THERE, 25 YEARS.
00:17:16.43\00:17:20.53
AND HER HUSBAND DIED
IF I REMEMBER THE STORY,
00:17:20.53\00:17:23.13
YES, BUT SHE REMAINED TO
TAKE CARE OF THAT ORPHANAGE.
00:17:23.13\00:17:26.26
YES, AND MANY OF HER
CHILDREN ARE NOW GROWN UP,
00:17:26.26\00:17:31.20
GONE TO COLLEGE AND
ARE WORKING IN THE CHURCH.
00:17:31.20\00:17:34.83
IS THAT RIGHT?
00:17:34.83\00:17:35.76
SO SHE WILL HAVE MANY,
MANY STARS IN HER CROWN.
00:17:35.76\00:17:39.76
SO WHAT WE CAN THINK ABOUT HERE
AT GOSPEL OUTREACH CANADA IS
SUPPORT AT LEAST IN SOME
00:17:42.56\00:17:48.63
FASHION, I DON'T KNOW IF WE HAVE
THE STRUCTURE HERE TO
ACCOMMODATE THIS, BUT SOME
00:17:53.60\00:17:58.13
SUPPORT FOR SOME OF THOSE
TEACHERS IN THAT SCHOOL, YES, OR
FUNDING A GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKER
00:17:58.13\00:18:04.23
THAT MIGHT SUPPORT
THE SCHOOL PROGRAM THERE
00:18:06.46\00:18:09.36
BECAUSE IT LOOKS TO ME LIKE THAT
IS AN OPEN OPPORTUNITY FOR
MINISTERING TO PEOPLE.
00:18:09.36\00:18:14.33
SOMEONE NEEDS TO
VISIT THE FAMILIES.
00:18:14.33\00:18:16.40
YOU SEE THE TEACHERS HAVE
ALL THEY CAN DO JUST TO PREPARE
00:18:16.40\00:18:21.06
AND THE PRINCIPAL IS
BUSY BEYOND DESCRIPTION.
00:18:21.06\00:18:25.60
SO, YOU KNOW, IF WE HAD A WORKER
THAT COULD GO AROUND AND VISIT
THE FAMILIES AND HELP THEM WITH
00:18:25.60\00:18:31.66
THEIR CHALLENGES AND SO ON AND
GIVE BIBLE STUDIES TO THEM AS
00:18:34.10\00:18:40.83
THEY REQUEST, THIS
IS A VERY GREAT NEED.
00:18:40.83\00:18:43.93
YOU KNOW WE, IN THE SEVENTH DAY
ADVENTIST CHURCH, ARE PRESENTLY
CHALLENGED BY OUR GENERAL
00:18:43.93\00:18:50.00
CONFERENCE LEADERSHIP WITH AN
EVANGELISTIC INITIATIVE THAT IS
TARGETING MAJOR CITIES OF THE
00:18:52.03\00:18:58.06
WORLD AND CERTAINLY CAIRO MUST
BE ONE OF THOSE MAJOR CITIES.
00:19:01.16\00:19:06.73
WHAT IS THE POPULATION OF CAIRO?
00:19:06.73\00:19:08.50
WELL, YOU HEAR VARIOUS ACCOUNTS
FROM ANYHING FROM 18 MILLION TO
00:19:08.50\00:19:14.56
22 MILLION. I'VE
HEARD ALL KINDS OF FIGURES.
00:19:17.66\00:19:19.83
I DON'T THINK ANYBODY REALLY
KNOWS BUT IT SOMEWHERE AROUND 20
00:19:19.83\00:19:24.70
MILLION. WELL, AT ANY RATE IT IS
A MAJOR CITY ON THE PLANET THAT
DESERVES SOME ATTENTION AND I
00:19:24.70\00:19:30.76
THINK IT OUGHT TO PROVIDE PAUSE
FOR US HERE AT GOSPEL OUTREACH
WITH THE REALIZATION THAT AT
00:19:33.86\00:19:39.93
PRESENT WE HAVE BUT ONE GOSPEL
OUTREACH WORKER IN ALL OF EGYPT.
00:19:42.13\00:19:47.66
AND WHETHER OR NOT THERE CAN BE
ARRANGEMENTS MADE FOR MORE THAN
ONE WORKER, WE HERE AT THIS
00:19:47.66\00:19:53.73
PARTICULAR PROGRAM, WE DON'T
HAVE THE INFORMATION ON THAT BUT
I WOULD SAY, DWIGHT, THAT YOU
00:19:57.90\00:20:03.96
AND I WOULD LIKE TO CHALLENGE
OUR VIEWERS TO THINK ABOUT
SUPPORT FOR WORKERS IN EGYPT.
00:20:06.00\00:20:12.03
YES, WE NEED ANOTHER 3 GOSPEL
OUTREACH WORKERS IN EGYPT.
00:20:14.30\00:20:19.60
AND AS FAR AS YOU ARE CONCERNED
IN YOUR UNDERSTANDING OF THE WAY
WE DISTRIBUTE WORKERS, YOU COULD
00:20:19.60\00:20:25.66
GET THOSE WORKERS
PLACED IF THEY WERE AVAILABLE.
00:20:29.76\00:20:31.93
YES, ABSOLUTELY.
00:20:31.93\00:20:34.93
DO YOU THINK, DO YOU THINK YOU
COULD FIND THOSE WORKERS FROM
AMONG YOUR STUDENTS
00:20:34.93\00:20:41.13
THAT YOU USED TO HAVE?
00:20:41.13\00:20:42.46
WELL SOME OF THEM WOULD
BE SUDANESE WORKERS IN THIS
00:20:42.46\00:20:47.96
SUDANESE SCHOOL. O.K.
00:20:47.96\00:20:48.96
AND YES, WE HAVE A
COUPLE OF POSSIBILITIES THERE.
00:20:48.96\00:20:53.90
YOU KNOW, PEOPLE WANT TO GO
WHERE THERE IS BETTER JOBS AND
SO MANY OF OUR FORMER STUDENTS
00:20:53.90\00:21:00.63
ARE SOMEPLACE ELSE OR STUDYING
IN OTHER UNIVERSITIES WHERE THEY
DON'T HAVE TO BOTHER WITH
00:21:00.63\00:21:08.00
SABBATH CLASSES OR SABBATH EXAM
PROBLEMS AND SO THEY ARE OUTSIDE
OF EGYPT RIGHT NOW BUT YES, WE
00:21:08.00\00:21:15.96
CAN GET SOME TO COME BACK.
00:21:15.96\00:21:18.66
BUT AS IS TYPICALLY THE CASE,
I'M SURE THE MINDS AND HEARTS OF
THOSE EGYPTIANS WHO MAYBE
00:21:18.66\00:21:26.33
SOMEPLACE ELSE STILL
FOCUS BACK TO THEIR HOMELAND.
00:21:26.33\00:21:29.70
ABSOLUTELY.
00:21:29.70\00:21:31.96
BEFORE WE CONCLUDE OUR LITTLE
VISIT HERE TOGETHER DWIGHT, I
WANT TO TAKE A LITTLE BREAK AND
00:21:31.96\00:21:37.73
SPEAK WITH OUR VIEWERS.
00:21:37.73\00:21:39.46
I HAVE A PARTICULAR REQUEST THAT
I'M IMPRESSED TO SHARE WITH US
RIGHT NOW AS YOU ARE THINKING
00:21:39.46\00:21:45.16
GOSPEL OUTREACH AND GOSPEL
OUTREACH CANADA IN THE CONTEXT
OF DWIGHT'S EXPLANATION TO US
00:21:48.93\00:21:55.00
ABOUT THE WORK
THERE, I AM GOING TO ASK YOU
00:21:58.06\00:22:01.76
TO PLEASE REMEMBER TO PRAY
FOR EGYPT AND THESE BELIEVERS.
00:22:01.76\00:22:09.23
THE SUDANESE COMMUNITY WHO HAVE
ESCAPED THERE JUST TO TRY AND
00:22:09.23\00:22:16.90
RESCUE LIFE.
PRAY FOR THESE FOLKS.
00:22:16.90\00:22:18.66
EGYPT IN PARTICULAR AND THAT GOD
WILL SOMEHOW INTERVENE SO THAT
MORE GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKERS CAN
00:22:18.66\00:22:21.26
BE PROVIDED FOR
THE WORK IN EGYPT.
00:22:21.26\00:22:23.30
THAT'S YOUR PRAYER ASSIGNMENT.
00:22:23.30\00:22:25.03
CAN I JUST, PLEASE INTERRUPT,
ADD TO THAT DAN, THAT RIGHT NOW
AS I MENTIONED, WE ARE ONLY IN
00:22:25.03\00:22:30.36
13 COUNTRIES OUT OF 54.
00:22:48.33\00:22:51.40
FIFTY FOUR IN TWO TERRITORIES SO
WE HAVE REALLY ONLY BEGUN THE
WORK IN THIS GREAT CONTINENT
00:22:51.40\00:22:57.46
WITH OVER A BILLION PEOPLE.
00:22:59.46\00:23:03.20
WE ARE IN WEST AFRICA AND
THEN OVER IN EGYPT AND SUDAN.
00:23:03.20\00:23:09.93
ALL THE MIDDLE PART, THE
NORTHERN PART AND THE SOUTHERN
PART AND EVEN MOST OF THE
00:23:09.93\00:23:15.23
WESTERN WEST
AFRICA -WE ARE NOT THERE.
00:23:15.23\00:23:18.96
WE NEED WORKERS.
00:23:18.96\00:23:21.30
YOU KNOW I CAN TELL YOU BY
PERSONAL EXPERIENCE IT TAKES YOU
NEARLY 10 HOURS TO FLY BY
00:23:21.30\00:23:27.63
AIRLINER FROM THE NORTH OF THE
CONTINENT TO THE SOUTHERN TIP
00:23:27.63\00:23:31.90
OF THE CONTINENT AS
I JUST DID IT RECENTLY.
00:23:31.90\00:23:35.13
AND I THOUGHT OF THAT GREAT
EXPANSE OF TERRITORY AND THE
MILLIONS OF PEOPLE THAT ARE A
00:23:35.13\00:23:42.76
PART OF THAT GREAT CONTINENT.
00:23:42.76\00:23:47.30
AFRICA IS BIGGER
THAN NORTH AMERICA.
00:23:47.30\00:23:50.63
MOST PEOPLE DON'T KNOW THAT THE
SAHARA DESERT IS 3.5 MILLION
SQUARE MILES THAT'S 9 TIMES THE
00:23:50.63\00:23:56.66
SIZE OF BRITISH COLUMBIA.
00:24:01.06\00:24:03.16
WELL, WE HAVE BEEN TALKING
ABOUT A PRAYER ASSIGNMENT.
00:24:03.16\00:24:06.63
YES, YES IT INCUDES EGYPT BUT
JUST AS DWIGHT ROSE HAS
EXPLAINED, LET'S REMEMBER THE
00:24:06.63\00:24:12.70
MILLIONS, A BILLION SOULS,
ACROSS THE CONTINENT OF AFRICA
WHO ARE ALSO GOD'S CHILDREN AND
00:24:15.63\00:24:21.40
THEY DESERVE TO KNOW IT.
00:24:21.40\00:24:23.40
SO IN YOUR CONSIDERATION
OF SUPPORT FOR GOSPEL OUTREACH
00:24:23.40\00:24:28.30
YOU MIGHT WANT TO
SPECIFY SOMETHING FOR AFRICA.
00:24:28.30\00:24:35.83
YOU CAN JOT THAT DOWN AND IF YOU
HAVEN'T ALREADY, REQUEST YOUR
COPY OF THE ADVENTURES IN
00:24:44.83\00:24:47.46
MISSIONS NEWSLETTER.
00:24:47.46\00:24:49.20
DWIGHT, ANY FINAL WORDS?
00:24:49.20\00:24:52.00
WE'VE GOT A COUPLE OF MINUTES.
00:24:52.00\00:24:53.76
ANY FINAL WORDS THAT WE DESERVE
TO KNOW, OH I WANTED TO ASK A
QUICK QUESTION, DID YOU SEE THE
00:24:53.76\00:24:59.06
ARCHITECT WHEN YOU
WENT BACK THIS LAST VISIT?
00:24:59.06\00:25:00.90
OH YES, OH YES, WE HAD LUNCH
WE HAD A BIG MEAL IN HIS HOME.
00:25:00.90\00:25:05.23
HE NEVER WILL ALLOW ME TO COME
TO EGYPT WITHOUT HAVING ME OVER
00:25:05.23\00:25:10.40
AND YOU KNOW A
BIG SPREAD AND SO ON.
00:25:10.40\00:25:12.80
THAT'S AN ILLUSTRATION OF THE
RELATIONSHIPS, YES, THAT NEED TO
BE BUILT AMONG THOSE PEOPLE.
00:25:12.80\00:25:19.16
WE NEEDN'T BE AFRAID OF GOD'S
OTHER CHILDREN SIMPLY BECAUSE
THEY DON'T KNOW WHO HE IS AND
00:25:19.16\00:25:24.96
WHAT HE IS LIKE.
00:25:24.96\00:25:25.96
NO THAT IS RIGHT.
00:25:25.96\00:25:26.93
ANY OTHER FINAL WORDS
THAT YOU WOULD LIKE TO SAY.
00:25:26.93\00:25:29.86
WE'VE GOT A
MINUTE AND 30 SECONDS.
00:25:29.86\00:25:32.23
WE HAVE A HUGE RESPONSIBILITY
BUT A HUGE PRIVILEGE TO SHARE
WITH SOME OF THE MOST WONDERFUL
00:25:32.23\00:25:38.30
PEOPLE IN THE
WORLD THE GOSPEL OF JESUS
00:25:41.06\00:25:44.33
AND I THINK PEOPLE ARE OPEN NOW
IN THIS AGE NOW MORE THAN EVER
00:25:44.33\00:25:50.86
BEFORE . THEY WANT TO KNOW.
00:25:50.86\00:25:52.80
WE HAD A YOUNG WOMAN
JUST COME TO THE ACADEMY
00:25:52.80\00:25:58.13
JUST FROM WHERE WE DON'T
KNOW, JUST SOMEWHERE IN CAIRO.
00:25:58.13\00:26:02.30
SHE WANTED TO KNOW MORE ABOUT
CHRISTIANITY AND I MEAN PEOPLE
ARE HUNGRY AND THERE ARE A LOT
00:26:02.30\00:26:08.26
OF PEOPLE IN AFRICA THAT
ARE HUNGERING FOR THE TRUTH.
00:26:08.26\00:26:14.33
ALL OF THE OTHER OBSTACLES DO
NOT GET IN THE WAY OF THE HOLY
00:26:17.30\00:26:22.63
SPIRIT REACHING
INTO PEOPLE'S HEARTS.
00:26:22.63\00:26:24.20
THAT'S RIGHT.
00:26:24.20\00:26:25.86
THANK YOU, THANK YOU DWIGHT FOR
YOUR LEADERSHIP, FOR YOUR
EXPERIENCES, FOR BEING WITH US
00:26:25.86\00:26:32.30
HERE TODAY AND AGAIN I WANT TO
THANK ALL OF YOU FOR BEING A
PART OF THE GOSPEL OUTREACH
00:26:32.30\00:26:38.80
FAMILY, FOR YOUR PRAYERS FOR
YOUR SUPPORT, FOR YOUR INTEREST
IN WHAT'S HAPPENING IN THE
00:26:38.80\00:26:40.30
GOSPEL OUTREACH WORLD.
00:26:47.50\00:26:49.53
I WANT TO AGAIN ASK YOU TO
ESPECIALLY REMEMBER AFRICA.
00:26:49.53\00:26:56.96
AND WE ARE GOING TO REMEMBER TO
INVITE YOU BACK HERE NEXT TIME
FOR MORE "ADVENTURES IN
00:26:56.96\00:27:01.53
MISSIONS" STORIES.
00:27:01.53\00:27:02.83
UNTIL THEN,
THIS IS DAN MATTHEWS.
00:27:04.23\00:27:07.33
[CLOSING MUSIC].
00:27:07.33\00:27:18.06
I NEED TO SPREAD
THE GOSPEL HERE AT HOME.
00:27:18.06\00:27:20.80
WHERE IS THE
10/40 WINDOW ANYWAY?
00:27:20.80\00:27:24.16
THOSE PEOPLE ARE TOO FAR AWAY.
00:27:24.16\00:27:27.36
SOMEONE ELSE CAN
TELL THEM ABOUT JESUS.
00:27:27.36\00:27:29.70
MAYBE THEY COULD JUST WATCH TV?
00:27:29.70\00:27:33.16
NEARLY THREE BILLION
PEOPLE TO REACH, MY HEAD HURTS.
00:27:33.16\00:27:38.63
THERE'S NOTHING I CAN DO,
00:27:38.63\00:27:40.36
I GIVE UP.
00:27:40.36\00:27:42.13
WHAT'S THE POINT OF TRYING?
00:27:42.13\00:27:43.73
I CAN'T MAKE A DIFFERENCE.
00:27:43.73\00:27:46.20
ACTUALLY, YOU
CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE
00:27:46.20\00:27:48.46
AND JESUS ASKED YOU
TO GO TO ALL THE WORLD.
00:27:48.46\00:27:52.16
WHERE?
00:27:52.16\00:27:53.56
ALL THE WORLD.
00:27:53.56\00:27:55.40
HOW CAN I GO? I
HAVE COMMITMENTS.
00:27:55.40\00:27:58.06
YOU CAN PRAY.
00:27:58.06\00:28:00.16
YOU CAN VOLUNTEER YOUR TALENTS.
00:28:00.16\00:28:05.16
YOU CAN TELL OTHERS.
00:28:05.16\00:28:08.86
YOU CAN GIVE MONEY TO
SPONSOR BIBLE WORKERS.
00:28:08.86\00:28:11.40
MILLIONS OF PEOPLE ARE
SEARCHING FOR HOPE AND MEANING
00:28:11.40\00:28:14.40
BUT THEY WON'T
FIND IT WIHTOUT YOU.
00:28:14.40\00:28:16.80
BE THE SPARK,
00:28:16.80\00:28:17.80
LIGHT THE FIRE,
00:28:17.80\00:28:19.06
FINISH THE WORK,
00:28:19.06\00:28:20.63
FINISH THE WORK.
00:28:20.63\00:28:23.03
