00:23 WELCOME TO "ADVENTURES IN MISSIONS" HERE AT GOSPEL OUTREACH.
00:25 I'M JULIE SANDERS-KEYMER AND WE ARE VERY GLAD THAT YOU HAVE JOINED US. 00:29 AND TODAY WE ARE GOING TO BE TALKING WITH FRED WEBB 00:32 AND FRED WELCOME TO "ADVENTURES IN MISSIONS". 00:33 THANK YOU. 00:34 FRED, TELL US A LITTLE BIT ABOUT THE TERRITORY 00:37 THAT YOU WORK IN HERE AT GOSPEL OUTREACH. 00:39 I'M RESPONSIBLE FOR THE AREA OF THE PHILIPPINES, THE WHOLE COUNTRY OF THE PHILIPPINES 00:43 FROM NORTH TO SOUTH AND TODAY, I'D LIKE TO TALK ABOUT THE AREA FROM MANILA NORTH. 00:49 O.K., FANTASTIC. 00:51 TELL US A LITTLE BIT ABOUT THOUGH, THE PEOPLE WHO ARE WORKING IN THE PHILIPPINES. 00:54 GOSPEL OUTREACH HIRES WORKERS AND HOW MANY WORKERS ARE IN THE PHILIPPINES? 00:58 WE HAVE ABOUT 50 IN THE ENTIRE COUNTRY IN THE AREAS WE ARE TALKING ABOUT TODAY ABOUT 15. 01:03 O.K. 01:04 AND THEY ARE HIRED LOCAL PEOPLE WHO SPEAK THE LANGUAGE AND ALL OF THAT. 01:08 THEY ARE LOCAL PEOPLE, WE DON'T USE THE TERM HIRED. 01:11 O.K. 01:12 THEY ARE CONTRACTED TO WORK WITH THEM BECAUSE IF WE HIRE THEM THAT IS A LEGAL CONCEPT 01:16 THAT WE HAVE TO BE CAREFUL WITH. 01:18 I UNDERSTAND THAT AND THE PHILIPPINES ARE SPECIAL TO YOUR HEART FOR MANY REASONS. 01:21 OH YES, I LIVED THERE FOR 12 YEARS. 01:23 WONDERFUL. 01:24 WHY DON'T YOU TAKE US ON A TOUR OF THE PHILIPPINES? 01:26 O.K. 01:28 WE ARE GOING TO START OUT WITH SOME EVANGELISTIC MEETINGS IN THE PAMPANGA REGION JUST NORTH 01:32 OF MANILA A LITTLE WAYS. 01:33 OUR FIRST PICTURE IS EAGER CHILDREN COMING FOR AN EVANGELISTIC MEETING. 01:39 THEY START THE MEETINGS, THE CHILDREN COME FIRST AND THEY COME AND THEY SING AND THEY 01:43 GET STORIES AND THEY JUST REALLY GET ALL EXCITED. 01:46 AND WE HAVE A MOTHER AND A DAUGHTER, NO THIS IS NOT A MOTHER DAUGHTER, IT IS LINDA 01:50 AND ROSELLE LEADING OUT IN AN ACTION SONG WITH THE YOUNG PEOPLE. 01:55 LINDA IS THE WIFE OF OUR LEADER THERE AND A COFOUNDER OF GOSPEL OUTREACH. 01:59 SHE IS A VERY ACTIVE WORKER AND GAVE UP A VERY LUCRATIVE JOB TO DO THIS. 02:04 TO WORK FOR THE LORD AND WHICH ONE IS LINDA, SHE IN THE WHITE? 02:09 SHE'S IN THE WHITE. 02:10 IN THE WHITE, O.K. 02:12 AND ROSELLE IN THE BLACK, HAS A DEGREE IN EDUCATION BUT SHE WANTED TO WORK AS A MISSIONARY 02:17 FOR A FEW MONTHS, IT HAS BEEN SEVERAL YEARS. 02:19 WELL, PRAISE THE LORD. 02:22 AND THEN THE GROUP, AS I SAY, THEY HEAR STORIES AND HERE IS ANOTHER GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKER 02:29 JIMMY, TELLING STORIES TO THE KIDS. 02:32 SO, FRED HOW DO PEOPLE HEAR ABOUT THESE MEETINGS? 02:35 IS IT WORD OF MOUTH OR DO YOU PUT POSTERS UP? 02:36 IT IS PRIMARILY WORD OF MOUTH BECAUSE THE PEOPLE ARE BASICALLY ILLITERATE. 02:41 SO POSTERS WOULDN'T MEAN MUCH. 02:43 THE CHILDREN DO GO TO SCHOOL BUT THE ADULTS ARE ALMOST ALL ILLITERATE. 02:47 THESE ARE AETA PEOPLE WHO WERE BASICALLY SOME OF THE 02:55 ORIGINAL INHABITANTS OF THE PHILIPPINES. 02:59 THEY WERE DISPLACED WHEN MT. 03:01 PINATUBO BLEW OFF A FEW YEARS AGO, 1990,1991 I THINK IT WAS AND THE GOVERNMENT HAS PUT UP 03:09 RESETTLEMENT AREAS SO WE ARE WORKING IN THOSE RESETTLEMENT AREAS. 03:12 FANTASTIC. 03:13 HERE IS ROSELLE TELLING ANOTHER STORY. 03:17 SHE IS VERY ACTIVE. 03:20 JUST VIVACIOUS, YOUNG VIVACIOUS AND REALLY ATTRACTS THE KIDS. 03:24 THESE ARE THE KIND OF HOUSES THAT THE PEOPLE LIVE IN. 03:29 NOT VERY COMFORTABLE BY WESTERN STANDARDS BUT THIS IS WHAT THE PEOPLE LIVE IN AND OF 03:35 COURSE, CHICKENS ARE ALWAYS AROUND. 03:36 I WAS GOING TO SAY, I SEE A ROOSTER THERE. 03:39 AFTER THIS SERIES OF MEETINGS, I WAS THERE ON THE LAST NIGHT OF THE MEETINGS THE NEXT DAY 03:44 WE WENT OUT FOR A BAPTISM AND THEY SAID THE BAPTISM IS GOING TO BE DOWN IN THAT RIVER. 03:48 AND I SAID, "WHAT?
