[OPENING MUSIC].
00:00:00.56\00:00:16.60
WELCOME TO
"ADVENTURES IN MISSIONS".
00:00:16.60\00:00:19.40
YOU KNOW WHAT THIS IS ALL ABOUT
WHEN YOU SEE ME AND HEAR ME SAY
00:00:19.40\00:00:22.83
"ADVENTURES IN MISSIONS".
00:00:22.83\00:00:23.83
WE'RE TALKING
ABOUT GOSPEL OUTREACH.
00:00:23.83\00:00:26.16
I'M SO GLAD YOU HAVE JOINED
US FOR THIS PROGRAM BECAUSE I
00:00:26.16\00:00:31.30
WOULDN'T WANT YOU TO MISS WHAT
WE ARE GOING TO BE HEARING ABOUT
00:00:31.30\00:00:35.30
TODAY. YOU KNOW, OF COURSE, THAT
I GET TO PRESENT MY FRIENDS WHO
00:00:35.30\00:00:39.06
HAVE BECOME PART OF MY FAMILY AT
GOSPEL OUTREACH AND PART OF YOUR
00:00:39.06\00:00:43.33
FAMILY TOO BY THE WAY.
00:00:43.33\00:00:44.50
WE'RE GOING TO HEAR FROM
TWO OF THESE GOOD FRIENDS.
00:00:44.50\00:00:47.33
I'M GOING TO LET THE OTHER
CAMERA GO ON THESE TWO AS I
BEGIN TO TELL YOU ABOUT
00:00:47.33\00:00:53.53
EM.
00:00:53.53\00:00:54.90
WHENEVER I SEE JOHN BLAKE ON
MY FAR LEFT HERE, I KNOW WE'RE
00:00:54.90\00:01:00.26
GOING TO BE TALKING ABOUT DEAF
MINISTRY AT GOSPEL OUTREACH.
00:01:00.26\00:01:04.10
DON'T THINK ME ILL WHEN I SAY
THIS JOHN BUT YOU ARE THE DADDY
00:01:04.10\00:01:12.06
OF DEAF MINISTRY
AT GOSPEL OUTREACH.
00:01:12.06\00:01:13.46
WE WOULDN'T HAVE HAD IT BORN
HERE HAD IT NOT BEEN
EXPERIENCE.SION AND YOUR
00:01:17.86\00:01:18.90
WELCOME JOHN
BLAKE TO THIS PROGRAM.
00:01:18.90\00:01:21.50
THANK YOU, IT'S
A JOY TO BE HERE.
00:01:21.50\00:01:23.50
WHEN I SEE FRED WEBB I
JUST AUTOMATICALLY THINK OF THE
00:01:23.50\00:01:29.00
PHILIPPINES. WE MUST BE GOING
TO BE TALKING ABOUT DEAF WORK IN
00:01:29.00\00:01:34.06
THE PHILIPPINES.
DID I GUESS RIGHT?
00:01:34.06\00:01:35.16
YOU GUESSED IT RIGHT.
00:01:35.16\00:01:36.46
IN ORDER TO DO THIS AS
EFFECTIVELY AS POSSIBLE, WE'RE
00:01:36.46\00:01:43.00
GOING TO DO IT PICTORIALLY
BECAUSE AS FRED DOES SO WELL, HE
BRINGS US PICTURES SO WE
00:01:43.00\00:01:48.36
CAN SEE THE PEOPLE, SEE THE
PLACES, HEAR THE NAMES AND
ASSOCIATE SO MUCH H RE
00:01:48.36\00:01:53.56
EFFECTIVELY.
00:01:53.56\00:01:54.50
ARE WE READY FOR SOME
PICTURES TO TALK ABOUT?
00:01:54.50\00:01:56.96
I THINK WE WANT TO TALK ABOUT
HOW WE GOT DEAF WORK STARTED
00:01:56.96\00:02:03.26
FIRST. GOOD IDEA.
00:02:03.26\00:02:04.66
WHERE DO WE START JOHN?
00:02:04.66\00:02:06.00
I HAD A BURDEN FOR DEAF
WORK IN THE PHILIPPINES.
00:02:06.00\00:02:10.00
IT DIDN'T SEEM TO WORK OUT
CORRESPONDING WISE AND THIS AND
00:02:10.00\00:02:15.93
THAT. FINALLY I GOT
THE OKAY THAT I SHOULD GO.
00:02:15.93\00:02:18.96
FRED WEBB IS OUR BASIC DIRECTOR
FOR THE PHILIPPINES SO HE
00:02:21.70\00:02:28.03
ARRANGED A GROUP OF US TO MEET
TOGETHER IN KIND OF A LITTLE
00:02:28.03\00:02:31.90
OUTSIDE ROTUNDA. I
DIDN'T KNOW ALL THE PEOPLE.
00:02:31.90\00:02:36.80
FRED, TELL WHAT HAPPENED.
00:02:36.80\00:02:38.73
WE TRIED TO INTEREST PEOPLE IN
BECOMING INVOLVED WITH THIS, AND
00:02:38.73\00:02:43.63
THEY ALL SAID "NO."
00:02:43.63\00:02:44.63
WERE THERE ANY
DEAF PEOPLE AMONG THOSE?
00:02:44.63\00:02:49.23
NO.
00:02:49.23\00:02:50.43
HOWEVER, THE FATHER AND A SISTER
OF A DEAF PERSON WAS THERE.
00:02:50.43\00:02:56.73
SO THAT WAS
THEIR INTEREST IN IT.
00:02:56.73\00:02:58.73
THE OTHER ONE HAD WORKED WITH
THE DEAF BEFORE WHEN THE
CHRISTIAN RECORD HAD A
00:02:58.73\00:03:04.43
DEAF PROGRAM IN THE PHILIPPINES.
00:03:04.43\00:03:07.26
HOW DID YOU TWO RESPOND
TO THIS NEGATIVE REACTION?
00:03:07.26\00:03:12.33
IT WAS
INTERESTING WHAT HAPPENED.
00:03:15.43\00:03:17.43
THE FATHER WE HOPED WOULD BE
CO-SPONSORED BY GOSPEL OUTREACH
00:03:17.43\00:03:25.40
AND HIS LOCAL
CHURCH ORGANIZATION.
00:03:25.40\00:03:28.46
BUT THAT DIDN'T WORK OUT.
00:03:28.46\00:03:31.36
FINALLY IT WORKED OUT THAT THE
YOUNG LADY FROM MINDANAO WOULD
00:03:31.36\00:03:37.06
BECOME A WORKER.
00:03:37.06\00:03:38.43
WHEN I WENT AROUND THE CIRCLE
AND LOOKED AT THE YOUNG LADY AND
00:03:38.43\00:03:42.93
ASKED HER IF SHE WOULD BE
WILLING TO BE A WORKER, SHE
00:03:42.93\00:03:49.00
SMILED. SHE DIDN'T WANT TO SAY
YES AND SHE DIDN'T REALLY WANT
00:03:51.90\00:03:54.66
TO SAY NO. BUT GOD
BEGAN WORKING ON HER HEART.
00:03:54.66\00:03:58.56
SHE WAS A
SUCCESSFUL TEACHER OF THE DEAF.
00:03:58.56\00:04:00.63
SHE COULDN'T SEEM TO HAVE ANY
SPIRITUAL REST UNTIL FINALLY SHE
00:04:00.63\00:04:06.70
GAVE UP HER GOOD JOB, SHE GAVE
UP HER INDEPENDENT LIVING SO SHE
00:04:08.83\00:04:13.93
COULD TRAIN. SHE HAD TO GO BACK
AND LIVE WITH HER PARENTS WHICH,
00:04:13.93\00:04:18.83
FOR A GIRL OF HER AGE WHEN SHE
HAD ALREADY BEEN INDEPENDENT,
00:04:18.83\00:04:23.00
WAS HARD. SHE NOW IS OUR
LEAD WORKER IN THE MANILA AREA.
00:04:23.00\00:04:26.46
AND HER UNPAID DEAF
SISTER IS HELPING HER.
00:04:26.46\00:04:30.26
GOD IS WORKING IN BOTH AREAS
AND WE ARE GETTING BAPTISMS.
00:04:30.26\00:04:34.16
WE'RE GOING TO SEE THE STORIES.
00:04:34.16\00:04:36.66
WE'LL START WITH
THE PICTURES NOW.
00:04:36.66\00:04:38.63
THIS FIRST
PICTURE IS LYCHEL GABUCO.
00:04:38.63\00:04:41.73
SHE IS THE LADY
WHOSE SISTER IS DEAF.
00:04:41.73\00:04:44.60
LYCHEL GAVE UP A GOOD
JOB TO BECOME A WORKER.
00:04:44.60\00:04:49.80
WELL, SHE GOT A BETTER JOB.
00:04:49.80\00:04:52.73
SHE GOT A GOOD JOB, SHE
JUST DOESN'T GET PAID AS MUCH.
00:04:52.73\00:04:57.80
SHE WORKS WITH THEM.
00:04:57.80\00:04:59.10
IN THIS NEXT PICTURE WE
HAVE HER SISTER ON THE RIGHT.
00:04:59.10\00:05:04.33
THE ONE ON THE LEFT IN THE
PICTURE IS ANOTHER DEAF PERSON.
00:05:07.00\00:05:11.70
THEY ARE DOING SPECIAL MUSIC FOR
THE PASAY CITY ENGLISH CHURCH IN
00:05:11.70\00:05:17.53
MANILA. IT IS
NOT A SMALL CHURCH.
00:05:17.53\00:05:18.70
THEY HAVE ABOUT
A THOUSAND MEMBERS.
00:05:18.70\00:05:21.53
IS THERE A GROUP OF
DEAF IN THAT CONGREGATION?
00:05:21.53\00:05:24.73
YES.
00:05:24.73\00:05:26.63
HERE WE HAVE A GROUP SIGNING A
SONG ALONG WITH THE REST OF THE
00:05:26.63\00:05:32.70
CONGREGATION.
00:05:37.00\00:05:38.00
THEY ARE
ENJOYING SIGNING THE SONG.
00:05:38.00\00:05:40.00
THEY ALL WANT TO GET
TOGETHER FOR A PICTURE.
00:05:40.00\00:05:42.20
NORMALLY SHE HAS A FEW MORE
THAN THIS, BUT OUT OF FORTY THAT
00:05:42.20\00:05:47.20
NORMALLY ATTEND ONLYLYOUR
ARE SEVENTH-DAY ADVENTISTS.
00:05:47.20\00:05:49.36
IS THAT SHE IN THE MIDDLE
BY THE FLOWER ARRANGEMENT?
00:05:49.36\00:05:54.50
YES.
00:05:54.50\00:05:55.93
THE THIRTY SIX ARE NOT
SEVENTH-DAY ADVENTISTS BUT THEY
COME TO CHURCH EVERY
00:05:55.93\00:06:01.86
SABBATH BECAUSE THIS IS
SOMETHING FOR THEM AS DEAF
00:06:01.86\00:06:06.00
PEOPLE. YOU WERE
THERE FOR THESE PICTURES?
00:06:06.00\00:06:08.00
I TOOK THESE PICTURES.
00:06:08.00\00:06:09.43
I AM SURE THERE IS NO RELUCTANCE
ON HER PART NOW ABOUT HER CHOICE
00:06:09.43\00:06:16.86
TO BECOME A WORKER FOR THE DEAF.
00:06:16.86\00:06:18.26
AS WE SIT HERE TODAY SHE IS
IN TRAINING WITH THE PHILIPPINE
00:06:18.26\00:06:25.93
BRANCH OF THE AMAZING
FACTS CENTER OF EVANGELISM.
00:06:25.93\00:06:30.50
AFTER THE CHURCH SERVICE THEY
HAVE A POTLUCK DINNER PROVIDED
00:06:30.50\00:06:35.46
BY THE CHURCH. AFTER
THAT THEY HAVE A BIBLE STUDY.
00:06:35.46\00:06:40.70
ALL THESE PEOPLE COME IN.
00:06:40.70\00:06:42.40
THEY GET THE CHURCH, THEY
GET THE FELLOWSHIP WITH DEAF AND
00:06:42.40\00:06:46.20
THEY GET A BIBLE STUDY.
00:06:46.20\00:06:48.23
THEY ARE BECOMING QUITE
WELL ACQUAINTED WITH SEVENTH-DAY
00:06:49.46\00:06:52.80
ADVENTISTS. THIS IS SOMETHING
I'VE HEARD YOU TALK ABOUT BEFORE
00:06:52.80\00:06:59.06
JOHN. THESE PEOPLE WHO ARE KIND
OF ISOLATED FROM THE HEARING
00:06:59.06\00:07:05.63
WORLD GET TO ACCLIMATE INTO A
COMMUNITY OF OTHERS WHO ARE
DEAF, BUT THEY ARE ALSO PART OF
00:07:05.63\00:07:11.70
ANOTHER CARING COMMUNITY THEY
HAVE NEVER EXPERIENCED BEFORE.
00:07:13.93\00:07:17.53
YES.
00:07:17.53\00:07:18.93
A LITTLE LATER ON IN THE
PICTURES WE'RE GOING TO SEE WHEN
00:07:18.93\00:07:23.90
A DEAF AMERICAN PASTOR, PASTOR
JEFF JORDAN, COMES OVER AND HAS
MEETINGS WITH THEM.
00:07:23.90\00:07:30.40
THEY JUST LOVE IT
BECAUSE HE IS ONE OF THEM.
00:07:30.40\00:07:35.10
IF I WAS THERE THEY WOULD LIKE
IT BUT IT'S NOT THE SAME AS A
00:07:35.10\00:07:42.43
DEAF PERSON TO THEM.
00:07:42.43\00:07:43.30
LET'S HURRY ALONG
THROUGH THESE PICTURES.
00:07:43.30\00:07:45.43
ACCORDING TO LYCHEL ANY HEARING
PERSON, NO MATTER HOW WELL THEY
00:07:45.43\00:07:49.50
MIGHT BE ABLE TO SIGN, OR TO BE
ABLE TO COMMUNICATE, THEY ARE
STILL HELD A LITTLE
00:07:49.50\00:07:53.43
BIT DIFFERENT.
00:07:53.43\00:07:54.43
SHE RELIES QUITE
A BIT ON HER SISTER.
00:07:54.43\00:07:59.10
HERE IS LYCHEL GIVING
INSTRUCTIONS TO HER SISTER AND
00:07:59.10\00:08:02.93
ANOTHER. THAT IS HER
SISTER CHEARD NEXT TO HER.
00:08:02.93\00:08:05.06
SHE IS GIVING INSTRUCTIONS OF
WHAT TO DO AS THEY LEAD OUT IN
00:08:07.43\00:08:12.06
THE BIBLE STUDY
ON SABBATH AFTERNOON.
00:08:12.06\00:08:13.03
SO LYCHEL DOES HAVE
THE ABILITY TO COMMUNICATE?
00:08:13.03\00:08:16.86
OH YES, SHE SIGNS QUITE WELL.
00:08:16.86\00:08:19.83
SHE DOESN'T FEEL ADEQUATE,
BUT SHE DOES A GOOD JOB I THINK.
00:08:19.83\00:08:24.16
HER FATHER HAS RETIRED AND IS
VOLUNTEERING TO WORK WITH THEM.
00:08:24.16\00:08:31.00
WE ARE GOING TO MOVE NOW DOWN TO
MINDANAO WHERE WE HAVE STARTED A
00:08:31.00\00:08:37.06
SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF.
00:08:37.06\00:08:38.33
IT IS THE FIRST SEVENTH-DAY
ADVENTIST SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF IN
00:08:38.33\00:08:41.33
THE PHILIPPINES.
00:08:41.33\00:08:43.36
THERE ARE FEW OPPORTUNITIES FOR
THE DEAF TO GO TO SCHOOL, SO WE
00:08:43.36\00:08:51.13
THOUGHT IT A GOOD THING TO DO
TO START A SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF.
00:08:51.13\00:08:54.70
WE'RE GOING TO TAKE A LITTLE
TRIP AND GO OVER AND SEE WHAT IT
00:08:54.70\00:08:57.23
LOOKS LIKE.
00:08:57.23\00:08:58.23
WE START OUT GOING
ACROSS A LITTLE BAMBOO BRIDGE.
00:08:58.23\00:09:01.23
ACTUALLY THERE ARE TWO OF THESE
TO CROSS ON THE WAY OUT TO THE
00:09:01.23\00:09:04.03
SCHOOL. WE FINALLY GET THE FIRST
VIEW OF THE SCHOOL OFF IN THE
00:09:04.03\00:09:10.10
DISTANCE. WHO BUILT THE SCHOOL?
00:09:10.10\00:09:11.93
GOSPEL OUTREACH.
00:09:11.93\00:09:13.26
THROUGH THE WORK OF JOHN BLAKE
MUCH OF THE FUNDING HAS BEEN
00:09:13.26\00:09:19.43
PROVIDED. THE LORD HAS WORKED
ON A DOCTOR'S HEART IN CANADA.
00:09:19.43\00:09:24.13
HE HAD MARRIED SOMEBODY FROM THE
PHILIPPINES SO HE HAD A SPECIAL
00:09:24.13\00:09:29.46
BURDEN FOR IT.
00:09:29.46\00:09:31.76
TOTALING EVERYTHING TOGETHER
FROM WHAT HE HAS GIVEN AND WHAT
00:09:31.76\00:09:35.73
OTHERS HAVE GIVEN THROUGH AN
ORGANIZATION CALLED "A BETTER
00:09:35.73\00:09:40.16
WORLD" WE HAVE NOW SENT
TWENTY-FIVE THOUSAND DOLLARS TO
HELP BUILD THAT SCHOOL.
00:09:40.16\00:09:43.76
THE SETTING OF THE PICTURE
THAT WE WERE JUST LOOKING AT IS
00:09:43.76\00:09:49.50
BEAUTIFUL. TO SEE THAT BUILDING
THERE, IT WOULD BE AN
INSPIRATION TO ANYBODY TO
00:09:49.50\00:09:54.23
BE ABLE TO GO TO
SCHOOL IN A PLACE LIKE THAT.
00:09:54.23\00:09:56.36
THERE ARE
BEAUTIFUL SURROUNDINGS.
00:09:56.36\00:09:58.36
THERE ARE MOUNTAINS ALL AROUND.
00:09:58.36\00:09:59.83
THEY HAVE A FRESH WATER SUPPLY
AND THE OPPORTUNITY TO
EVENTUALLY HAVE A SMALL
00:09:59.83\00:10:04.80
HYDRO-ELECTRIC PLANT.
00:10:04.80\00:10:06.10
AS WE GO ONTO THE CAMPUS THIS
IS THE FIRST BUILDING THAT WAS
00:10:06.10\00:10:11.56
BUILT. THIS IS WHAT THEY
CALL A BODEGA OR A STORAGE ROOM.
00:10:11.56\00:10:16.23
THAT'S WHERE THE PEOPLE LIVED
WHEN THEY WERE WORKING ON THE
00:10:16.23\00:10:22.20
REST OF THE MPUS.
00:10:22.20\00:10:23.50
THIS IS THE CLASS ROOM THAT HAS
NOW BEEN COMPLETED AND IS READY
00:10:23.50\00:10:26.00
TO BE USED.
00:10:26.00\00:10:27.90
IT'S QUITE SUBSTANTIAL AND
ROOM ENOUGH FOR TWO CLASSES.
00:10:27.90\00:10:31.20
THIS IS SARA FAMISARAN.
00:10:31.20\00:10:33.06
SHE IS THE
DIRECTOR OF THE SCHOOL.
00:10:33.06\00:10:35.16
THIS SCHOOL AND WORK FOR THE
DEAF IS TIED IN WITH THE SULADS.
00:10:35.16\00:10:41.23
HER HUSBAND WAS THE DIRECTOR OF
SULADS, AND SHE HAS BEEN WORKING
00:10:43.23\00:10:47.70
WITH THEM.
00:10:47.70\00:10:49.13
SO WHILE IT'S A DEAF WORK UNDER
JOHN, IT'S ALSO UNDER THE SULADS
00:10:49.13\00:10:53.60
WHICH IS UNDER ME.
00:10:53.60\00:10:55.50
WE ALL WORK TOGETHER ON THIS.
00:10:55.50\00:10:57.13
COOPERATION IS
THE NAME OF THE GAME.
00:10:57.13\00:11:02.40
SHE IS SIGNING HER THANKS.
00:11:02.40\00:11:05.10
AGAIN, A VIEW OF THE GROUP THAT
WAS THERE FOR THE DEDICATION OF
00:11:05.10\00:11:09.43
THE DORMITORY WHICH
WE HAVEN'T SEEN YET.
00:11:09.43\00:11:11.43
WE STARTED IN THE CLASSROOM.
00:11:11.43\00:11:15.46
YOU CAN SEE THE
SIZE OF THAT BUILDING.
00:11:15.46\00:11:17.46
IT'S A NICE LONG BUILDING THAT
CAN BE DIVIDED IN THE CENTER
00:11:17.46\00:11:20.43
INTO TWO CLASSROOMS.
00:11:20.43\00:11:22.06
CURRENTLY THEY HAVE
ABOUT NINE STUDENTS ATTENDING.
00:11:22.06\00:11:25.36
THE SCHOOL HAS STARTED AND
THEY SEEM TO BE WORKING WELL.
00:11:25.36\00:11:30.83
ONE THING THAT KIND OF SURPRISED
ME WAS THAT OF THESE EIGHT OR
00:11:30.83\00:11:35.63
NINE STUDENTS, THE LETTER THAT I
GOT SAID THEY WERE ALL IN GRADE
00:11:35.63\00:11:42.23
ONE AND THEY VARIED FROM
EIGHT TO TWENTY YEARS OLD.
00:11:42.23\00:11:45.50
NOW WHAT DOES THAT TELL YOU?
00:11:45.50\00:11:47.13
THEY HADN'T HAD OPPORTUNITY
FOR AN EDUCATION BEFORE.
00:11:47.13\00:11:49.13
RIGHT.
00:11:49.13\00:11:50.46
SO GOD HAS OPENED A DOOR SO THEY
CAN LEARN TO READ AND WILL BE
00:11:50.46\00:11:55.63
ABLE TO EVENTUALLY
READ THEIR OWN BIBLE.
00:11:55.63\00:11:57.70
THE DEAF GROUP THAT HAD
ASSEMBLED FOR THAT OCCASION WAS
00:12:00.83\00:12:06.23
VERY HAPPY TO
SIGN A SONG FOR US.
00:12:06.23\00:12:11.43
THEY HAVE DONE AN EXCELLENT JOB.
00:12:11.43\00:12:14.36
IT'S AMAZING TO ME TO SIT
THERE AND WATCH THESE THINGS.
00:12:14.36\00:12:19.00
THIS IS THE DORMITORY, THE
LAST BUILDING THAT HAS BEEN
00:12:19.00\00:12:23.33
CONSTRUCTED. IT IS
CAPABLE OF HOUSING ABOUT TWENTY.
00:12:23.33\00:12:29.53
CURRENTLY I THINK THE STAFF
ARE LIVING IN THAT DORMITORY AS
00:12:29.53\00:12:33.03
WELL. ANOTHER VIEW OF THE
DORMITORY FROM THE CLASSROOM.
00:12:35.03\00:12:37.36
THAT FIRST ONE WAS A
VIEW FROM THE BODEGA.
00:12:37.36\00:12:40.56
THIS IS THE VIEW
FROM THE CLASSROOM.
00:12:40.56\00:12:42.66
IT LOOKS LIKE IT'S
AN ADEQUATE BUILDING.
00:12:42.66\00:12:49.50
WE GATHERED
AROUND FOR A DEDICATION.
00:12:49.50\00:12:51.46
THE MAN IN THE PINK SHIRT
IS A MAN BY THE NAME OF SONNY.
00:12:51.46\00:12:57.93
HE HAS VERY IMPAIRED HEARING.
00:12:57.93\00:13:04.36
HE IS FROM CAGAYAN DE ORO AND
HAS BECOME ONE OF THE LEADERS OF
00:13:04.36\00:13:11.73
THE GROUP THERE.
00:13:11.73\00:13:12.83
HERE THE DEAF ARE EXPRESSING
THEIR APPRECIATION FOR THE
00:13:12.83\00:13:18.80
SCHOOL THAT IS BEING
BUILT ON THEIR BEHALF.
00:13:22.10\00:13:24.06
ARE THESE STUDENTS AT THE SCHOOL
FROM A WIDE AREA OR ARE THEY
00:13:24.06\00:13:31.90
FROM A LOCAL COMMUNITY THERE?
00:13:31.90\00:13:32.80
PRIMARILY THEY COME
FROM ALL OVER MINDANAO.
00:13:32.80\00:13:38.96
IS THIS THE ONLY
SCHOOL LIKE IT IN MINDANAO?
00:13:41.40\00:13:43.90
THERE ARE OTHER DEAF SCHOOLS
BUT T T RUN BY SEVENTH-DAY
00:13:43.90\00:13:45.96
ADVENTISTS. THERE IS A LARGE
DEAF SCHOOL DOWN IN THE DAVAO
00:13:45.96\00:13:52.93
AREA. WE WANTED TO HAVE AN
ADVENTIST INFLUENCE, AND IN
00:13:52.93\00:13:57.33
ANOTHER AREA OF MINDANAO WHERE
THE EDUCATION IS NOT AVAILABLE.
00:13:57.33\00:14:00.10
RIGHT.
00:14:00.10\00:14:01.50
THIS MAN WHO IS IN CHARGE OF OUR
MUSLIM WORK FOR THE SULADS IS
00:14:01.50\00:14:07.16
GIVING THE DEDICATORY PRAYER.
00:14:16.10\00:14:18.23
JUST BECAUSE THEY ARE DEAF
DOESN'T MEAN THEY ARE ISOLATED.
00:14:18.23\00:14:21.06
THEY ARE A PART OF THE
GREATER SULADS OGRAM AS WELL.
00:14:21.06\00:14:24.23
THE DORMITORY IS
QUITE WELL APPOINTED.
00:14:24.23\00:14:26.23
I GUESS SO.
00:14:26.23\00:14:27.53
THEY MAKE A LOT OF BAMBOO
FURNITURE IN THE PHILIPPINES,
00:14:27.53\00:14:33.03
AND SOME OF IT IS
PRETTY NICE LOOKING.
00:14:33.03\00:14:34.26
IT'S NOT ALL THAT COMFORTABLE TO
SIT ON, BUT IT'S NICE LOOKING.
00:14:34.26\00:14:37.43
NOTICE THE TABLE OUT
IN FRONT OF THE CHAIR.
00:14:37.43\00:14:42.20
THE DEAF ALPHABET AND
BELOW THAT IS THE LIBRARY.
00:14:44.33\00:14:51.50
THE BOOKS THAT THEY CAN
USE FOR THEIR REFERENCES.
00:14:51.50\00:14:55.93
THE DEAF ARE SAYING THANK YOU
AND I LOVE YOU AS THEY ARE
SEEING THEIR DORMITORY
00:14:55.93\00:15:02.06
FOR THE FIRST TIME.
00:15:04.10\00:15:06.16
SONNY AGAIN IS EXPRESSING
HIS THANKS AND APPRECIATION IN
00:15:09.16\00:15:14.10
PRAYER FOR THE OPPORTUNITY OF
HAVING THIS SCHOOL FOR HIS OWN
00:15:14.10\00:15:18.50
PEOPLE. THE LEADER OF THE
COMMUNITY CAME TO TELL US HOW
MUCH HE APPRECIATED
00:15:18.50\00:15:24.56
THAT WE HAD CHOSEN HIS
AREA IN WHICH TO DO THIS.
00:15:26.63\00:15:29.76
UNDOUBTEDLY THIS WILL BRING
SOME ECONOMIC VALUE TO THE AREA.
00:15:29.76\00:15:36.60
HE WAS VERY PLEASED THAT WE
HAD CHOSEN TO COME TO HIS AREA.
00:15:36.60\00:15:43.10
THE WORK HAS NOT COME EASY
IN BUILDING AND SETTING THIS ALL
00:15:43.10\00:15:48.60
UP. IF YOU LOOK CAREFULLY AT
THIS YOUNG MAN HE HAS ONLY ONE
00:15:48.60\00:15:53.03
ARM. HE LOST THAT ARM IN AN
AUTOMOBILE ACCIDENT, BUT THAT
YOUNG MAN CAN DO MORE
00:15:53.03\00:16:00.76
WORK WITH ONE HAND THAN
MOST PEOPLE DO WITH TWO.
00:16:00.76\00:16:03.86
HE IS A CARPENTER.
00:16:03.86\00:16:05.86
HE CAN HANG CEILING BY HIMSELF
WITH ONE HAND AND HIS HEAD.
00:16:05.86\00:16:12.73
I HAVE SEEN HIM DRIVE A CARABAO.
00:16:12.73\00:16:14.73
I'VE SEEN HIM HANDLE A SHOVEL.
00:16:14.73\00:16:16.00
HE JUST DOES EVERYTHING.
00:16:16.00\00:16:19.03
HE IS THE ONE WE HAVE CHOSEN
TO BE ON SITE TO DEVELOP THE
00:16:19.03\00:16:26.43
SCHOOL. JOHN, YOU SPOKE EARLIER
ABOUT A DOCTOR AND SOME OTHER
DONORS WHO PROVIDED
00:16:26.43\00:16:32.50
THE RESOURCES TO
BUILD THIS SCHOOL.
00:16:34.86\00:16:38.00
DOES IT THEN REMAIN THE
RESPONSIBILITY OF THE LOCAL
00:16:38.00\00:16:42.50
PEOPLE TO DO THE BUILDING?
00:16:42.50\00:16:44.30
YES.
00:16:44.30\00:16:45.60
THE SULADS STUDENT MISSIONARY
MOVEMENT IS THE ONE THAT IS
00:16:45.60\00:16:51.43
BEHIND THE SCHOOL .
00:16:51.43\00:16:52.93
OUR INVOLVEMENT IS WITH THE
GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKER SARA.
00:16:52.93\00:16:57.26
AND BECAUSE I'M INTERESTED IN
DEAF WORK ANYWHERE I GOT
INVOLVED HELPING RAISE
00:16:57.26\00:17:04.26
FUNDS.
00:17:04.26\00:17:05.66
THEY HAVE HAD SOME OTHER FUNDS
TOO I THINK, BUT GOD BLESSED IN
00:17:05.66\00:17:11.30
CANADA WITH SOME GOOD FUNDING.
00:17:11.30\00:17:12.53
I LOOK AT THINGS FROM A
VERY BASIC AND PRACTICAL KIND OF
00:17:12.53\00:17:18.23
LEVEL. I LOOK AT THE MATERIAL
FROM WHICH THE SCHOOL IS BUILT.
00:17:18.23\00:17:23.10
IT LOOKS TO ME LIKE
IT IS NATIVE MATERIAL.
00:17:23.10\00:17:28.83
SOMEBODY, LIKE THE YOUNG MAN
WITH ONE ARM, HAS HAD TO HARVEST
00:17:28.83\00:17:34.90
THAT MATERIAL AND MAKE IT
INTO PROPER FORM THAT THEY COULD
00:17:39.43\00:17:44.36
BUILD WITH. THEY ARE NOT ALLOWED
TO CUT DOWN TREES, BUT THEY CAN
00:17:44.36\00:17:48.66
MAKE LUMBER OUT OF
TREES THAT HAVE FALLEN.
00:17:48.66\00:17:51.46
THEY MAKE THAT
LUMBER WITH A CHAIN SAW.
00:17:51.46\00:17:53.66
IS THAT RIGHT.
00:17:53.66\00:17:54.63
THEY SLICE IT INTO THE
SIZE OF TIMBER THEY NEED.
00:17:54.63\00:17:58.70
IT WORKS VERY WELL.
00:17:58.70\00:17:59.90
IT'S AMAZING TO ME HOW ACCURATE
THEY CAN BE WITH A CHAIN SAW.
00:17:59.90\00:18:04.66
THE BUILDING
WASN'T JUST THROWN UP.
00:18:04.66\00:18:10.50
YOU CAN SEE THAT.
00:18:10.50\00:18:11.73
IT'S WELL CONSTRUCTED AND
THE DIMENSIONS ARE OBVIOUSLY
00:18:11.73\00:18:16.70
CORRECT. WE HAVE A LICENSED
ARCHITECT WHO IS A PART OF OUR
00:18:16.70\00:18:22.66
SULADS PROGRAM. HE
COULD BE MAKING BIG MONEY.
00:18:22.66\00:18:24.36
INSTEAD OF THAT HE WANTS TO BE
A MISSIONARY AND USE HIS TALENTS
00:18:24.36\00:18:29.03
FOR THE LORD. HE HAS LAID OUT
THE CAMPUS, THE PLACEMENT OF THE
00:18:29.03\00:18:35.90
BUILDINGS AND HAS DRAWN
THE PLANS FOR THE BUILILNGS.
00:18:35.90\00:18:38.16
HE OVERSEES THE CONSTRUCTION.
00:18:38.16\00:18:40.16
I MUST NOT STOP YOU
WITH MORE QUESTIONS.
00:18:40.16\00:18:42.16
WE'VE GOT TO HURRY
ON WITH THE PICTURES.
00:18:42.16\00:18:45.90
THE STUDENTS ARE TAUGHT TO WORK.
00:18:45.90\00:18:47.90
THEY ARE PLANTING THEIR GARDENS.
00:18:47.90\00:18:52.83
I'M NOT QUITE SURE WHAT
THIS PARTICULAR CROP IS.
00:18:52.83\00:18:55.16
IT LOOKS LIKE IT
MIGHT BE CASSAVA.
00:18:55.16\00:18:57.16
THERE IS CORN ON
THE RIGHT HAND SIDE.
00:18:57.16\00:19:00.06
THE STUDENTS AND THE TEACHERS GO
OUT SIDE BY SIDE AND WORK IN THE
00:19:00.06\00:19:06.56
FIELDS.
00:19:06.56\00:19:07.43
THIS IS A CROP THAT
I HAD NEVER HEARD OF.
00:19:07.43\00:19:11.60
IT'S CALLED ADLAI, LIKE
ADLAI STEVENSON A FEW YEARS AGO.
00:19:11.60\00:19:15.30
IT'S A GRAIN
SOMETHING LIKE SORGHUM.
00:19:15.30\00:19:17.30
IT GROWS VERY
EASILY AND ABUNDANTLY.
00:19:17.30\00:19:19.50
THEY USE IT AS A
SUBSTITUTE FOR RICE.
00:19:19.50\00:19:25.56
IT'S MUCH EASIER
TO GROW THAN RICE.
00:19:29.56\00:19:31.56
THEY HAVE
PLANTED A LOT OF ADLAI.
00:19:31.56\00:19:34.26
THEY WILL NOT ONLY BE EATING IT
BUT THEY WILL BE SELLING IT TO
00:19:34.26\00:19:40.13
HELP PAY FOR OTHER FOODS.
00:19:40.13\00:19:41.43
GOING TO LET
JOHN TAKE OVER HERE.
00:19:41.43\00:19:46.96
THIS IS JEFF JORDAN.
00:19:46.96\00:19:48.80
HE IS A PASTOR FOR THE DEAF FROM
THE AREA NEAR SOUTHERN ADVENTIST
00:19:48.80\00:19:54.80
UNIVERSITY.
00:19:54.80\00:19:56.23
BOTH TIMES HE HAS BEEN THERE
HAVING MEETINGS BOTH IN THE
00:19:57.80\00:20:04.66
MANILA AREA AND IN MINDANAO.
00:20:04.66\00:20:06.10
EACH TIME THERE HAVE BEEN
BAPTISMS OF PEOPLE WHO HAVE BEEN
00:20:06.10\00:20:10.36
BASICALLY WORKED WITH BY
OUR GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKERS.
00:20:10.36\00:20:13.46
HE HAS KIND OF REAPED HERE
HE IS WITH HELPED BAPTISMAL
00:20:20.03\00:20:22.86
CANDIDATES. THE AUDIENCE
PARTICIPATES IN THE BAPTISM AS
00:20:22.86\00:20:28.20
WELL. DEAF BAPTISMS WERE A
STRANGE THING FOR ME BECAUSE
00:20:30.70\00:20:35.90
IT'S ALL SILENT.
NOBODY CLOSES THEIR EYES.
00:20:35.90\00:20:37.16
WHEN JEFF CAME THEY HAD A CAMP.
00:20:37.16\00:20:42.53
THESE ARE SOME OF THE CAMPERS
THAT CAME TO ENJOY THAT TIME
00:20:42.53\00:20:48.60
TOGETHER. IT WASN'T ALL FUN.
00:20:52.40\00:20:53.83
THEY HAD WORSHIP SERVICES AND WE
SEE SEVERAL OF THEM WORSHIPPING
00:20:53.83\00:20:59.13
TOGETHER. A COUPLE OF
PICTURES OF THEIR WORSHIP TIME.
00:21:01.50\00:21:04.23
THE CAMP WAS HELD ON THE CAMPUS
OF THE ADVENTIST UNIVERSITY OF
00:21:04.23\00:21:10.30
THE PHILIPPINES FORMERLY
CALLED PHILIPPINE UNION COLLEGE.
00:21:13.26\00:21:16.63
THEY DID HAVE A
DECENT BUILDING TO MEET IN.
00:21:16.63\00:21:18.93
THE CANDIDATES FOR BAPTISM WERE
DEDICATED AND THE WORKERS WERE
00:21:18.93\00:21:24.96
VERY HAPPY TO BE ABLE TO PRESENT
THESE NEW MEMBERS TO OUR CHURCH.
00:21:30.83\00:21:34.10
WE'VE GONE PRETTY QUICKLY.
00:21:34.10\00:21:37.40
WE'VE COVERED OUR SLIDES BUT
WE HAVE A LOT MORE WE CAN TALK
00:21:37.40\00:21:41.06
ABOUT. GOOD, BUT BECAUSE THIS
IS A VISUAL MEDIUM WE'RE DEALING
00:21:41.06\00:21:47.46
WITH NOTHING CAN BE BETTER THAN
TO HAVE PICTURES OF THTHREAL
PEOPLE AND THE REAL
00:21:47.46\00:21:51.26
PLACES.
00:21:51.26\00:21:52.73
OFTEN WE HAVE GOTTEN TO TALKING
TOO MUCH AND WE'VE MISSED OUT ON
00:21:52.73\00:21:59.30
SOME OF THE PICTURES.
00:21:59.30\00:22:00.36
SO I'M GLAD WE'VE
GOT SOME EXTRA TIME.
00:22:00.36\00:22:04.16
JOHN, YOU WERE WITH THE
PHILIPPINES DEAF MINISTRY FROM
00:22:04.16\00:22:09.26
THE BEGINNING. NOW
YOU SEE WHAT'S HAPPENING.
00:22:09.26\00:22:13.43
HOW DO YOU ASSESS THIS
PROCESS OF THE DEAF WORK IN THE
00:22:13.43\00:22:19.80
PHILIPPINES? BECAUSE WE HAVE
WORK WITH GOSPEL OUTREACH IN
NINE COUNTRIES OF THE WORLD,
00:22:19.80\00:22:24.00
UNLESS WE SPENT A HUGE AMOUNT
OF MONEY ON TRAVEL I CAN'T GO TO
00:22:26.23\00:22:31.06
ALL THESE AREAS EVERY YEAR.
00:22:31.06\00:22:32.53
THE PHILIPPINES IS FRED'S
RESPONSIBILITY FOR HEARING WORK
00:22:32.53\00:22:39.36
AND OUR SMALL DEAF WORK.
00:22:39.36\00:22:40.33
FRED IS THE ONE WHO
GETS TO SEE THEM EVERY YEAR.
00:22:40.33\00:22:47.46
HE'S THE ONE WHO CAN TALK WITH
THE CONFERENCE LEADERS AND THE
00:22:47.46\00:22:50.83
CHURCH LEADERS.
00:22:50.83\00:22:51.83
I'M MORE OF A RESOURCE PERSON.
00:22:51.83\00:22:53.50
I HELPED GET IT STARTED WITH DR.
WEBB WHEN WE FIRST STARTED, BUT
00:22:53.50\00:22:59.96
NOW IT IS CARRYING ON.
00:22:59.96\00:23:01.40
PASTOR JEFF JORDAN IS THE ONE
WHO I REALLY LOOK TO NOW AS THE
00:23:01.40\00:23:07.83
RESOURCE PERSON, WHO IS DEAF
HIMSELF, TO GO THERE AND
ACTUALLY WORK WITH THE
00:23:07.83\00:23:11.53
PEOPLE.
00:23:11.53\00:23:12.53
THEY LOVE TO HAVE HIM COME.
00:23:12.53\00:23:14.06
THEY APPRECIATE THE WAY HE CAN
PUT THINGS IN THEIR LANGUAGE.
00:23:14.06\00:23:19.73
IT'S INTERESTING, IF I'M
CORRECT, THAT THE PHILIPPINE
00:23:19.73\00:23:25.96
SIGN LANGUAGE IS CLOSE ENOUGH TO
AMERICAN I THINK THEY CAN
UNDERSTAND HIM DIRECTLY.
00:23:25.96\00:23:29.76
IT TOOK ONLY A FEW MOMENTS AND
HE HAD A WHOLE GROUP AROUND HIM,
00:23:29.76\00:23:32.63
AND THEY WERE
ENJOYING THEIR TIME TOGETHER.
00:23:32.63\00:23:35.60
IT'S SUCH A SUPPORT ALSO
FOR LYCHEL, THE UNPAID SISTER.
00:23:35.60\00:23:41.23
I'D LOVE TO SEE
HER AS A PAID WORKER.
00:23:43.46\00:23:46.46
SHE SHOULD BE.
00:23:46.46\00:23:47.43
IS SHE A CANDIDATE FOR
GOSPEL OUTREACH ADOPTION?
00:23:47.43\00:23:52.66
YES SHE IS.
00:23:52.66\00:23:54.76
WELL, WHY DON'T WE TAKE THIS
MOMENT TO GIVE OUR VIEWERS A
00:23:54.76\00:24:01.03
CHANCE TO RESPOND TO THE
POSSIBILITY OF ADOPTING CHEARD.
00:24:01.03\00:24:05.10
YOU DON'T HAVE YOUR PENCIL,
RUN QUICKLY AND GET SOMETHING TO
00:24:05.10\00:24:08.66
WRITE WITH.
00:24:08.66\00:24:10.06
CHEARD IS A YOUNG DEAF LADY WHO
LOVES THE LORD AND IS SERVING
00:24:10.06\00:24:13.53
HIM ALREADY AND
DESERVES TO BE SUPPORTED.
00:24:33.70\00:24:36.73
SHE IS A CANDIDATE FOR
GOSPEL OUTREACH ADOPTION.
00:24:36.73\00:24:41.40
I DON'T THINK I NEED
00:24:41.40\00:24:45.66
TO TALK TO YOU ABOUT
THE GOSPEL OUTREACH ADOPTION
00:24:41.40\00:24:45.66
PROGRAM BECAUSE YOU'VE ALREADY
READ ABOUT IT, AND YOU'VE HEARD
00:24:45.66\00:24:49.10
US TALK ABOUT IT HERE.
00:24:49.10\00:24:50.43
THERE IS ONE THING I HAVEN'T
UNDERSCORED AS WELL AS I SHOULD
00:24:50.43\00:24:54.10
HAVE AND THAT IS IF YOU ADOPT
CHEARD YOU WILL GET FIRST HAND
00:24:54.10\00:25:00.23
REGULAR REPORTS OF HER MINISTRY,
HER WORK AND SOME OF THE
EXPERIENCES SHE IS HAVING IN THE
00:25:03.76\00:25:08.40
TERRITORY TO
WHICH SHE IS ASSIGNED.
00:25:08.40\00:25:10.53
THAT WAY YOU HAVE ACCOUNTING
OF WHAT'S HAPPENING WITH THE
00:25:10.53\00:25:14.06
INVESTMENTS YOU MAKE IN
THIS GOSPEL OUTREACH WORK.
00:25:14.06\00:25:16.93
IF WE GET MORE THAN ONE SPONSOR,
IT COULD BE THAT THE FATHER OR
00:25:16.93\00:25:23.00
THE YOUNG MAN
SONNY COULD BE SPONSORED.
00:25:27.13\00:25:31.00
THERE PROBABLY ARE ONE OR TWO
OTHERS THAT COULD BECOME WORKERS
00:25:31.00\00:25:35.76
AS WELL. THERE PROBABLY IS NO
LIMIT TO THE NUMBER OF STUDENTS
IN THAT AREA OF THE SCHOOL
00:25:35.76\00:25:43.66
WHO COULD BE WELCOMED THERE AND
MADE A PART OF THE EDUCATIONAL
00:25:43.66\00:25:48.10
PROGRAM AND CONSEQUENTLY THE
EVANGELISTIC PROGRAM OF GOSPEL
00:25:48.10\00:25:52.56
OUTREACH. YES.
00:25:52.56\00:25:53.60
ANY FINAL WORD YOU'D
LIKE TO SHARE ABOUT THIS FRED?
00:25:53.60\00:25:56.76
I'M JUST HAPPY TO BE A PART
OF THE PROGRAM, AND I VERY MUCH
00:25:56.76\00:26:00.66
APPRECIATE THE
WORK THAT JOHN DOES.
00:26:00.66\00:26:02.53
WHENEVER I HAVE A QUESTION ABOUT
WHAT TO DO I CONTACT HIM AND WE
00:26:02.53\00:26:09.06
WORK TOGETHER ON THIS.
00:26:09.06\00:26:10.50
IT WORKS VERY WELL AND I'M
HAPPY THAT THESE PEOPLE HAVE THE
00:26:10.50\00:26:14.23
OPPORTUNITY TO
LEARN ABOUT JESUS.
00:26:14.23\00:26:15.46
VERY QUICKLY, WE ARE PRODUCING
THIS PROGRAM IN OCTOBER OF 2013.
00:26:15.46\00:26:21.70
HOW LONG HAS THE SCHOOL
BEEN OPEN AND OPERATIONAL?
00:26:21.70\00:26:25.30
IT STARTED IN JUNE OF THIS YEAR.
00:26:25.30\00:26:27.30
THIS IS A BRAND NEW MINISTRY
THAT CAN ONLY GROW FOR THE
00:26:27.30\00:26:33.46
FUTURE. YOUR PARTICIPATION WITH
THIS MINISTRY WILL, UNDER GOD'S
BLESSING, HELP IT TO
00:26:33.46\00:26:38.26
GROW.
00:26:38.26\00:26:39.70
IF SOMEBODY HAS A BURDEN TO HELP
BUILD SOME MORE BUILDINGS AT THE
00:26:39.70\00:26:43.46
CAMPUS WE NEED STAFF HOUSES.
00:26:43.46\00:26:44.46
YOU GET IN TOUCH
WITH GOSPEL OUTREACH.
00:26:44.46\00:26:49.30
YOU CAN ASK ALL KINDS OF
QUESTIONS AND YOU CAN LEARN WHAT
00:26:49.30\00:26:53.43
YOU CAN DO AND PRA,Y OF COURSE,
