00:13 WELCOME TO ADVENTURES IN MISSIONS HERE AT GOSPEL OUTREACH. 00:17 I'M JULIE SANDERS KEYMER AND THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR JOINING US HERE AS WE COME 00:20 TO YOU AND SHARE GREAT NEWS AND STORIES IN THE 10/40 WINDOW FROM OUR 00:24 GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKERS. 00:26 AND YOU KNOW SOME OF US MIGHT THINK OH I CAN'T DO THAT, I'M TOO YOUNG, I'M 00:30 TOO OLD, I'M TOO WHATEVER. 00:32 I DON'T HAVE ENOUGH TIME, DON'T HAVE ENOUGH MONEY. 00:34 BUT YOU KNOW WHAT, JESUS TELLS US IN THE BIBLE THAT WE'RE ALL SUPPOSED TO GO 00:38 AND WE'RE ALL SUPPOSED TO TELL AND TEACH AND SHARE ABOUT JESUS' LOVE. 00:42 AND IN JEREMIAH THE LORD REPLIED TO JEREMIAH BECAUSE JEREMIAH SAID I 00:48 CAN'T SPEAK FOR YOU I'M TOO YOUNG AND THE LORD REPLIED DON'T SAY I'M TOO 00:52 YOUNG FOR YOU MUST GO WHEREVER I SEND YOU AND SAY WHATEVER I TELL YOU 00:57 AND DON'T BE AFRAID OF THE PEOPLE FOR I WILL BE WITH YOU AND WILL PROTECT YOU. 01:01 I THE ORD HAVE SPOKEN. 01:02 THEN THE LORD REACHED OUT AND TOUCHED JEREMIAH'S MOUTH. 01:03 LOOK I HAVE PUT MY WORDS IN YOUR MOUTH. 01:04 SO GOD CAN DO THIS. 01:05 HE DID IT FOR JEREMIAH, AND FRED WEBB HI AND WELCOME. 01:06 HE CAN DO IT FOR US TOO RIGHT? 01:11 PRAISE THE LORD. 01:17 IT'S ALL TRUE. 01:18 AND YOU KNOW WE THINK ABOUT ALL THESE DIFFERENT AREAS OF THE WORLD AND 01:21 THERE WAS A MAN ABRAM LARUE AND HE HEADED OUT IN 1888, THE MAN WITH 66 01:27 YEARS OLD AND GOD IMPRESSED UPON HIM TO TAKE THE ADVENT CHRISTIAN 01:32 MESSAGE TO ASIA AND BECAUSE OF ABRAM LARUE IT HAS SPREAD ALL OVER ASIA. 01:38 IT'S AMAZING. 01:39 PEOPLE NEVER GET TOO OLD TO WITNESS. 01:40 NO, NO NO NO. 01:41 NO. 01:42 IT'S ALL TRUE. 01:44 WELL FRED WEBB YOU ARE THE REGIONAL DIRECTOR FOR THE PHILIPPINES, RIGHT, AND 01:46 I'M GOING TO GRAB OUR NIFTY MAP HERE AND SHARE WITH US WHERE WE'RE 01:50 HEADED. 01:50 THIS IS THE PHILIPPINES. 01:53 LUZON THE BIG ISLAND IN THE NORTH, MINDANAO THE BIG ONE IN THE SOUTH AND 01:56 VISAYAS IN BETWEEN. 01:58 THIS ONE OVER HERE IS WHERE WE'RE GOING TODAY. 01:59 THAT'S CALLED PALAWAN. 02:01 PALAWAN, AND TELL ME WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE. 02:03 IT'S A LONG STRING BEAN. 02:04 AND TELL US WHAT THE LENGTH OF THIS, OF COURSE THIS MAP ISN'T TO SCALE 02:09 BUT WHAT'S THE LENGTH OF THAT ISLAND? 02:11 WELL IT TAKES FOUR HOURS TO GO FROM THE CENTRAL PART TO THE SOUTH. 02:13 IT TAKES ANOTHER FOUR HOURS TO FROM THE CENTRAL PART TO THE NORTH BY CAR. 02:18 AND ABOUT HOW WIDE? 02:19 FOUR OR FIVE MILES. 02:21 OKAY. 02:22 ALRIGHT, THAT KIND OF GIVES US AN IDEA. 02:24 SO YOU ARE IN CHARGE OF THE GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKERS IN THE PHILIPPINES 02:27 AND GIVE US AN IDEA OF ABOUT HOW MANY THAT IS TOTAL. 02:30 WE HAVE 74 WORKERS IN THE PHILIPPINES SCATTERED ALL OVER FROM NORTH TO SOUTH 02:35 AND EAST TO WEST. 02:36 WOW. 02:37 AND IT'S A JOY FOR YOU TO GO AND VISIT THEM I KNOW. 02:39 I ENJOY. 02:39 GOOD. 02:41 SO SHARE WITH US WHAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT HERE ON THIS PROGRAM. 02:43 OKAY, WE'RE GOING TO GO TO PALAWAN. 02:45 THE FIRST SLIDE IS A PICTURE OF A CHURCH IN WHICH WE HAVE BEEN WORKING 02:48 NOW FOR FIVE YEARS AND WE WILL BE MOVING THE WORKER NOW TO A NEW AREA BECAUSE 02:54 OUR POLICY IS AFTER FIVE YEARS THE CHURCH SHOULD BE WELL ESTABLISHED AND I 02:58 THINK IN THIS CASE IT IS ESTABLISHED. 03:01 THIS IS GEORGE PIORAY OUR GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKER THERE. 03:07 THIS IS INSIDE THE CHURCH? 03:08 THIS IS INSIDE THE CHURCH. 03:09 IT'S NOT VERY FANCY BUT IT'S A PLACE TO MEET. 03:12 YOU KNOW IT'S NOT THE BEAUTY OF THE CHURCH, WE'RE WORSHIPPING THE 03:16 LORD. 03:17 IT'S THE PEOPLE WHO COME BECAUSE WE ALL NEED HIM. 03:19 AND THIS YOUNG MAN HAS BEEN TRAINED TO PREACH AND HE WAS THE PREACHER JUST 03:23 THE SABBATH BEFORE I WAS THERE. 03:26 SO THAT'S PART OF THE PROGRAM IS TO TRAIN THE PEOPLE TO BE THEIR OWN 03:29 LEADERS SO THAT WHEN GOSPEL OUTREACH IS GONE THEY WILL BE ABLE TO 03:33 CONTINUE. 03:34 THESE ARE THE GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKERS IN PALAWAN. 03:41 THERE ARE, WELL LET'S SEE. 03:43 THE LADY IN THE GREEN IS NOT PAID. 03:46 THE OTHERS ARE ALL PAID. 03:49 ABOUT HOW MUCH DO THEY GET A MONTH FOR BEING A GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKER? 03:52 IN AMERICAN DOLLARS IT WOULD BE ABOUT 300 DOLLARS A MONTH. 03:55 THREE HUNDRED DOLLARS A MONTH. 03:59 THESE ARE THE FEW THAT WERE ABLE TO COME OUT THE DAY WE WERE THERE. 04:02 BECAUSE WE WERE THERE ON A WEEK DAY YOU DON'T GET VERY MANY PEOPLE. 04:05 THE HUSBANDS WERE MAINLY WORKING IN A MINE AND THIS IS A LADY AND SOME YOUTH. 04:12 NOW WE'RE AT ANOTHER PLACE DOWN, WAY DOWN SOUTH. 04:15 THIS IS DOWN SOUTH OF BROOKS POINT. 04:17 THIS IS ELI TAMANO AND HIS WIFE ON THE LEFT OF THE PICTURE. 04:24 ELI IS IN THE MIDDLE? 04:25 ELI IS IN THE MIDDLE. 04:26 THE MAN ON THE RIGHT IS THE BARANGAY CAPTAIN. 04:30 WHAT DOES THAT MEAN? 04:31 KIND OF LIKE A MAYOR ONLY IT'S A SMALLER GOVERNMENT UNIT. 04:35 THEY HAVE MADE FRIENDS. 04:37 YOU KNOW WHEN YOU FIRST GO INTO AN AREA THE FIRST THING YOU HAVE TO DO IS TO 04:40 MAKE FRIENDS. 04:42 HE HASN'T BEEN THERE VERY LONG SO THAT'S ABOUT AS FAR AS HE HAS GOTTEN AT 04:45 THIS POINT IS MAKING FRIENDS. 04:46 BUT HE HAS MADE FRIENDS AND A NUMBER OF PEOPLE CAME OUT. 04:49 THIS IS ONE OF THOSE WHO HAS BECOME A FRIEND AND HAS DECIDED THAT SHE'D 04:53 LIKE TO STUDY THE BIBLE WITH HIM. 04:57 THIS LADY WAS JUST KIND OF OBSERVING FROM THE SIDE. 05:02 CHILDREN ARE ALWAYS CURIOUS. 05:04 YES THEY ARE. 05:04 WHAT'S GOING ON? 05:06 AND WE FIND THAT IF YOU CAN GET THE HEARTS OF THE CHILDREN THE PARENTS WILL 05:09 COME TO FIND OUT WHY. 05:10 YES. 05:11 SO IT'S NOT A WASTE. 05:13 IN FACT IF YOU CAN WIN A CHILD YOU HAVE THEM FOR A LIFETIME. 05:17 BUT IF YOU GET AN OLD PERSON LIKE ME, FOR JUST A FEW MORE YEARS. 05:20 YOU'RE NOT OLD FRED. 05:22 YOU'RE DOING GREAT THINGS FOR THE LORD AND THE BIBLE TALKS ABOUT GIVING 05:25 STRENGTH SO WE CAN SORE ON WINGS LIKE EAGLES. 05:28 SO I WANT TO ENCOURAGE YOU. 05:29 THAT'S WHAT KEEPING ME GOING. 05:30 BY THE WAY, WE DO HAVE ONE GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKER IN THE PHILIPPINES WHO IS THE 05:33 SAME AGE I AM. 05:34 WELL SEE, THAT'S FANTASTIC. 05:36 SO WE CONTINUE TO GO. 05:39 THIS IS THE GROUP THAT HAS BEEN BROUGHT TOGETHER POSING WITH THE LOCAL 05:43 PEOPLE THAT CAME OUT TO HAVE LUNCH WITH US. 05:47 SO THIS LOOKS VERY DRY. 05:48 IS IT VERY DRY AND HOT? 05:50 WE'RE HAVING EL NINO. 05:52 REMEMBER ON THE WEST COAST OF THE UNITED STATES EL NINO MEANS A LOT OF RAIN. 05:57 EL NINO IN THE PHILIPPINES MEANS DROUGHT. 05:59 YES, IT LOOKS VERY DRY. 06:00 AND ALL THAT RAIN COMES THIS WAY. 06:02 SO YES IT WAS VERY HOT AND VERY DRY WHILE WE WERE THERE. 06:05 HERE'S ELI STANDING ON THE STEPS OF THE LOCAL TRIBAL HEADQUARTERS. 06:11 HE'S WORKING WITH A TRIBAL GROUP THERE. 06:13 SO THIS IS OTHERWISE KNOWN AS CITY HALL. 06:15 YES. 06:15 AND THIS IS INSIDE THE HEADQUARTERS. 06:21 YOU CAN SEE PLACES TO SIT ALONG THE EDGE. 06:24 NOW HELP ME UNDERSTAND TOO FRED, SO IF WE HAVE A TRIBAL OFFICE LIKE THIS, 06:28 CITY HALL, IF A CHURCH NEEDS TO BE BUILT ARE THERE PERMITS THAT PEOPLE 06:32 HAVE TO GO THROUGH? 06:33 IS THERE ANY, WE'RE USED TO THAT HERE. 06:36 YOU JUST HAVE TO GET PERMISSION FROM THE BARANGAY CAPTAIN. 06:40 FROM THE MAYOR. 06:42 OKAY, OKAY. 06:43 I WAS INTERESTED IN THESE. 06:45 THESE ARE MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS. 06:47 NOW THIS IS A DIFFERENT TRIBE. 06:48 THERE ARE THE PALAWANO TRIBE. 06:49 DOWN IN MINDANAO WE HAVE VERY VERY SIMILAR MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS AMONG THE 06:55 TRIBAL PEOPLE THERE. 06:57 I DON'T KNOW WHAT CONNECTION THEY HAVE BUT THE ONE HANGING NEXT TO 07:00 THE POST THERE LOOKS LIKE JUST A PIECE OF BAMBOO. 07:04 IT HAS STRINGS ON THE OUTSIDE AND A LADY USUALLY PLAYS THAT. 07:07 SHE'LL HOLD IT AGAINST HER TUMMY AND PLAY WITH HER THUMBS. 07:11 WITH HER THUMBS. 07:12 OKAY, ALRIGHT. 07:13 THE LONG ONE IS PLAYED LIKE A GUITAR. 07:14 THE BAMBOO IS CALLED A SALURAY AND THE OTHER ONE IS A KUDLONG. 07:23 ONE OF THE HOUSES NEARBY JUST TO SHOW WHAT KIND OF PLACES THE PEOPLE LIVE IN. 07:29 MOST PEOPLE OR MANY SEVENTH-DAY ADVENTISTS ANYWAY HAVE HEARD OF THE 07:33 ADVENTIST FRONTIER MISSIONS AND KENT GEORGE AND HIS WIFE WHO HAVE 07:40 WORKED IN KALAMATAN. 07:42 THIS MOUNTAIN IS WHERE THEY WORK. 07:44 INTERESTING. 07:45 I'VE NOT BEEN UP THERE. 07:46 I'VE BEEN THERE A COUPLE OF TIMES AND I'VE WAVED. 07:49 YES, IT LOOKS LIKE A HILL TO CLIMB. 07:52 SO WHAT DO MOST OF THE PEOPLE DO FOR WORK HERE? 07:54 I KNOW THERE'S A LOT OF FISHING IN THE PHILIPPINES. 08:00 THERE WHERE WE WERE IN THAT LAST PICTURE IT'S QUITE A WAYS FORM THE 08:05 OCEAN. 08:06 OH IT IS. 08:07 IT'S UP, WE UP ON A MOUNTAIN PART WAY. 08:11 NOT CLEAR UP TO THE TOP BUT WE'RE UP PART WAY. 08:14 DO THEY DO AGRICULTURE GROWING THINGS? 08:17 THEY GROW SOME THINGS. 08:19 IN THE FLAT AREAS THEY WILL RAISE RICE AND SOME VEGETABLES. 08:25 OKAY, ALRIGHT KEEP GOING. 08:26 OKAY. 08:27 WE'RE GOING NOW TO THE NORTHERN PART OF THE ISLAND. 08:31 THIS IS THE BAWAAN FAMILY, OR BAWAAN. 08:36 PHILIPPINES PRONOUNCE ALL VOWELS SO IF THERE ARE TWO VOWELS TOGETHER YOU 08:40 PRONOUNCE BOTH OF THEM SO THIS IS BAWAAN. 08:42 THEY ARE JUST NEW WITH GOSPEL OUTREACH. 08:48 THIS IS THE FIRST TIME I MET THEM ACTUALLY. 08:51 THEY HAVE THREE CHILDREN. 08:52 THERE WAS AN OLDER DAUGHTER WHO WAS IN SCHOOL. 08:55 THEY ARE STARTING IN A NEW AREA. 08:56 THIS IS THEIR HOME AND IT'S ALSO WHERE THEY'RE HAVING THEIR CURRENT 09:00 SERVICES. 09:01 THIS IS THE PLACE WHERE THEY HAVE THEIR SERVICES INSIDE THEIR HOME. 09:06 THIS LOOKS LIKE SABBATH SCHOOL. 09:07 YES, MOST OF THE PEOPLE WHO COME ARE CHILDREN. 09:10 YES. 09:11 SO THEY ARE DOING A GOOD WORK THERE GETTING STARTED. 09:15 THE MISSION HAS BOUGHT A PIECE OF PROPERTY AND THEY HAVE RAISED SOME MONEY AND 09:21 THIS IS A NEW CHURCH COMING UP. 09:23 SO WHO WILL BUILD THIS CHURCH? 09:24 THEY HAVE ONE PAID CONTRACTOR AND THE REST OF IT'S ALL VOLUNTEER WORK. 09:31 THE MONEY HAS BEEN PROVIDED BY THE MISSION AND SEEMS TO BE GOING 09:36 ALONG VERY WELL. 09:37 YOU SEE IT'S STILL UNDER CONSTRUCTION. 09:39 THEY HAVEN'T STARTED USING THIS YET BUT YOU CAN SEE THE PLATFORM THERE AND 09:45 READY TO SETTLE THE FLOOR DOWN. 09:47 HOPEFULLY NEXT TIME WHEN YOU GO BACK IT WILL BE ALL DONE. 09:50 I HOPE SO. 09:51 THE MAN IN THE BLUE SHIRT THERE IS THE CARPENTER THAT'S BEEN PAID TO BE THE 09:58 KIND OF THE CONTRACTOR. 10:00 BUT THE LITTLE GIRLS IN FRONT KIND OF PHOTOBOMBED THE PICTURE. 10:02 YES, BUT SHE'S CUTE, HEY. 10:04 BRING HER IN ANY DAY. 10:05 IN FACT I KIND OF TOOK THE PICTURE BECAUSE SHE WAS THERE. 10:08 SHE'S CUTE. 10:10 I HAD ALREADY TAKEN THE PICTURE OF THE TWO MEN WITH THE POUNDER THERE. 10:14 THAT'S HOW THEY COMPACT THE SOIL. 10:16 OH THAT'S A POUNDER. 10:17 SO THEY LITERALLY MOVE IT UP AND DOWN. 10:19 OKAY. 10:20 SO NO STEAMER ROLLER LIKE WE SEE HERE. 10:22 NO. 10:23 YOU JUST POUND. 10:23 IT'S ALL MAN POWER. 10:24 EVERYTHING IS MAN POWER. 10:26 AND IT'S CHEAPER THAT WAY. 10:28 IF YOU HIRE MACHINERY THAT COSTS MONEY. 10:30 TRUE. 10:33 THIS IS THE VIEW FROM THE CHURCH LOOKING BACK TOWARDS THE VILLAGE. 10:36 VERY GREEN. 10:37 IT WAS GREEN THERE. 10:39 IT'S IN THE NORTHERN PART AND IT'S ON THE WESTERN SHORE OF THE PHILIPPINES, 10:44 THE WESTERN SIDE OF THE PHILIPPINES WHICH GET A LITTLE MORE RAIN. 10:49 ANOTHER VIEW OF THE VILLAGE FROM THE CHURCH. 10:51 THERE IS A WELL ON THE PROPERTY. 10:53 I DON'T THINK I SHOWED THE WELL. 10:59 YES I DO. 11:01 THERE WE GO. 11:01 THAT'S THE WELL. 11:02 IT NEEDS TO BE CLEANED. 11:04 SO WHAT DOES THAT MEAN, JUST ALL THE? 11:06 THERE'S WEEDS GROWING DOWN INSIDE. 11:08 YES BUT THERE WAS WATER DOWN THERE. 11:10 I COULD SEE MY REFLECTION SO THERE IS WATER THERE. 11:13 OKAY. 11:14 SO THEY WILL HAVE TO CLEAN IT UP AND THEN PROBABLY WILL HAVE TO BE BOILED 11:18 WATER TO BE USEABLE. 11:19 BUT AT LEAST THERE IS WATER ON THE PROPERTY. 11:20 WOW. 11:23 AND THIS IS THE GROUP THAT THEY'VE GOTTEN TOGETHER IN ABOUT THREE MONTHS. 11:27 REALLY. 11:29 THE GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKERS HAVE GOTTEN TO BE FRIENDS AND SHARED JESUS 11:31 WITH ALL OF THESE. 11:33 SHARED JESUS WITH THESE AND THEY'RE READY TO JOIN THE CHURCH. 11:36 WELL ISN'T THAT FANTASTIC. 11:37 WELL FRED THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SHARING THESE. 11:39 AND WE WANT TO ENCOURAGE YOU AS OUR VIEWERS TO GET INVOLVED. 11:44 WE'RE GLAD THAT YOU'RE WATCHING THE PROGRAM BUT WE HOPE THAT YOU WILL GO 11:46 ON LINE AND THAT YOU WILL GIVE US A CALL AND THAT YOU WILL BE ENCOURAGED TO 11:50 SHARE TO GIVE SO MORE GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKERS CAN THEN SHARE JESUS IN 11:55 THE PLACES THAT THEY LIVE. 11:57 SO WE HAVE SOME MORE INFORMATION FOR YOU AND PLEASE ENJOY WATCHING IT. 12:00 I NEED TO SPREAD THE GOSPEL HERE AT HOME. 12:06 WHERE IS THE 10/40 WINDOW ANYWAY? 12:09 THOSE PEOPLE LIVE TOO FAR AWAY. 12:12 SOMEONE ELSE CAN TELL THEM ABOUT JESUS. 12:15 MAYBE THEY COULD JUST WATCH TV. 12:18 NEARLY THREE BILLION PEOPLE TO REACH. 12:21 MY HEAD HURTS. 12:23 THERE'S NOTHING I CAN DO. 12:25 I GIVE UP. 12:27 WHAT'S THE POINT OF TRYING? 12:30 I CAN'T MAKE A DIFFERENCE. 12:32 ACTUALLY YOU CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE. 12:35 AND JESUS ASKED YOU TO GO TO ALL THE WORLD. 12:41 WHERE? 12:41 ALL THE WORLD. 12:43 HOW CAN I GO, I HAVE COMMITMENTS. 12:47 YOU CAN PRAY. 12:48 YOU CAN VOLUNTEER YOUR TALENTS. 12:51 YOU CAN TELL OTHERS. 12:53 YOU CAN GIVE MONEY TO SPONSOR BIBLE WORKERS. 12:56 MILLIONS OF PEOPLE ARE SEARCHING FOR HOPE AND MEANING. 12:59 BUT THEY WON'T FIND IT WITHOUT YOU. 13:02 BE THE SPARK. 13:03 LIGHT THE FIRE. 13:05 FINISH THE WORK. 13:08 FINISH THE WORK. 13:10 BE THE SPARK. 13:13 KIDS ARE CUTE NO MATTER WHERE THEY ARE AROUND OUR BIG GLOBE AND YES IT IS 13:17 OUR JOB WE'VE BEEN TOLD AND WE'VE BEEN ASKED AND COMMANDED AND ENCOURAGED 13:23 BY JESUS TO SHARE HIM AND THE LIVING WATER THAT HE CAN GIVE AND HE IS COMING 13:28 AGAIN SOON. 13:30 WE WANT TO ENCOURAGE YOU TO GET INVOLVED WITH GOSPEL OUTREACH. 13:32 WE WANT TO THANK ALL OF YOU WHO HAVE DONE SO AND WE HAVE WAYS TO 13:37 COMMUNICATE WITH YOU. 13:38 WE HAVE A NEWSLETTER THAT WE WOULD LOVE TO SHARE WITH YOU AND PLEASE LET US 13:42 KNOW HOW WE CAN GET THIS TO YOU VIA THE MAIL. 13:46 WE ALSO HAVE A FACEBOOK PAGE AND WE ENCOURAGE YOU TO LIKE US ON FACEBOOK. 13:51 WE PUT THESE INTERVIEWS UP THERE. 13:52 WE PUT STORIES FROM THE REGIONAL DIRECTORS WHO HAVE TALKED TO THE GOSPEL 13:56 OUTREACH WORKERS AND IT'S REALLY ENCOURAGING AND WE WOULD ASK YOU TO GET 14:00 INVOLVED ON LINE AS WELL. 14:02 WE'RE HERE TALKING WITH FRED WEBB HERE TODAY ON THIS EDITION OF ADVENTURES 14:06 IN MISSIONS AND FRED YOU ARE THE REGIONAL DIRECTOR FOR PHILIPPINES. 14:09 THAT'S RIGHT. 14:11 AND WE ARE ON A BIG LONG ISLAND IN THE PHILIPPINES BECAUSE IT'S MADE UP OF 14:14 ALL SORTS OF ISLANDS BUT YOU DESCRIBED THE PALAWAN ISLAND AS A BIG STRING 14:19 BEAN. 14:19 STRING BEAN. 14:20 IT LOOKS THAT WAY ON THE MAP. 14:22 SO TAKES US BACK TO WHERE WE'RE VIEWING THESE GREAT PHOTOS FROM WHAT THE 14:25 GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKERS ARE DOING AND CHURCHES ARE BEING BUILT AND IT'S 14:28 EXCITING. 14:29 OKAY, WE'RE GOING TO GO TO AN AREA CALLED DUMARAO. 14:32 THE WORKER THERE, ACTUALLY IT'S A HUSBAND AND WIFE TEAM. 14:36 THEY'VE BEEN WORKING TOGETHER FOR ABOUT 18 YEARS NOW. 14:41 DURING THAT 18 YEARS THEY HAVE RAISED UP NINE CHURCHES. 14:46 NINE. 14:46 NINE CHURCHES IN 18 YEARS. 14:48 WOW. 14:49 AND THE THING THAT I LIKE TO OBSERVE IS THAT THOSE CHURCHES THAT HE HAS 14:54 RAISED UP IN THE PAST ARE STILL FLOURISHING AFTER HE IS GONE. 14:58 HE HAS DONE AN EXCELLENT JOB OF TRAINING THEM AND PREPARING THEM FOR THEIR 15:02 OWN LEADERSHIP AND THEY HAVE DONE WELL. 15:04 IN FACT ON THE WAY COMING UP HERE WE STOPPED BY ONE OF THOSE. 15:08 BEAUTIFUL CHURCH. 15:09 IT JUST WAS FANTASTIC AND IT'S FULL. 15:11 WELL YOU SEE THAT'S WHEN YOU MAKE A COMMITMENT TO JESUS AND THEN AS WE SPEND 15:14 TIME IN HIS WORD AND WE DEVELOP THAT RELATIONSHIP AND THEN WE'RE SO EXCITED 15:21 ABOUT THEN WE SHARE IT WITH SOMEONE ELSE BUT WE HAVE TO KEEP GOING BACK TO 15:29 THE WORD TO HAVE THAT INSPIRATION FOR OURSELVES AND THAT CONNECTION. 15:33 AND IT SOUND LIKE THAT'S WHAT THIS AREA HAS. 15:36 WHEN THEY PUT THE PEOPLE TO WORK THEN THEY GET EXCITED WITH THEIR FIRST 15:41 LOVE YOU KNOW AND THEY MAINTAIN THAT FIRST LOVE WHEN THEY SEE OTHERS 15:44 COMING IN. 15:45 YES, EXACTLY. 15:46 ALRIGHT. 15:46 SO SHARE WITH US SOME MORE. 15:48 OKAY. 15:49 OUR FIRST PICTURE IS A PICTURE OF THE NEW CHURCH THAT HE HAS RAISED UP 15:53 THERE IN DUMARAO. 15:54 HE'S BEEN THERE NOW JUST A LITTLE OVER TWO YEARS. 15:59 WHEN I WAS THERE TWO YEARS AGO HE HAD ALREADY GOTTEN TOGETHER A GROUP AND WERE 16:03 WORSHIPPING TOGETHER. 16:05 THE MISSION HAS BOUGHT A PIECE OF PROPERTY AND HAVE FENCED IT IN. 16:08 THEY BOUGHT ABOUT TWO HECTARES. 16:10 THAT WOULD BE ABOUT FOUR ACRES, FOUR AND A HALF ACRES. 16:13 WHEN I WAS THERE LAST YEAR THERE WAS NO CHURCH. 16:17 HE SHOWED ME WHERE IT WAS GOING TO BE BUT WHEN I CAME THIS YEAR THIS IS THE 16:21 VIEW FROM THE ROAD. 16:22 FROM THE MAIN HIGHWAY GOING FROM NORTH TO SOUTH ON THE ISLAND. 16:25 SO IT'S IN A PROMINENT PLACE WHERE EVERYBODY CAN SEE IT. 16:28 THEY NEED TO PUT A SIGN OUT FRONT. 16:29 THEY HAVEN'T DONE THAT YET. 16:30 IT WILL COME. 16:31 AND THIS IS THAT CHURCH THROUGH THE TREES. 16:35 IT'S BEAUTIFUL. 16:35 I WAS JUST AMAZED. 16:38 THERE WAS NOTHING THERE LAST YEAR. 16:41 BEAUTIFUL. 16:44 WELL, AND IT'S NEAT TO SEE HOW THE DIFFERENT AREAS, AND WE TALKING ABOUT THIS 16:49 THAT THE CHURCH IS THE PEOPLE. 16:51 AND YET AT THE SAME TIME TO HAVE A NICE PLACE TO COME AND ALL OF THAT. 16:55 OH LOOK INSIDE. 16:56 THAT IS JUST BEAUTIFUL. 16:57 THEY'VE DONE A VERY NICE JOB. 16:59 MANY TIMES YOU SEE THE FRONT HAS BEEN FINISHED BUT NOT INSIDE. 17:01 YES. 17:02 AND I LOVE THAT, THE HOPE. 17:03 THERE'S HOPE IN JESUS, THE JOY IN JESUS. 17:07 THAT'S A BANNER THAT THEY USED FOR AN EVANGELISTIC SERIES. 17:09 AND I LOVE ALL THE READ. 17:10 HE HAS JUST DONE A TREMENDOUS JOB AND HIS WIFE IS RIGHT THERE BESIDE 17:16 HIM ALL THE TIME. 17:16 THEY HAVE FOUR CHILDREN. 17:18 I DON'T KNOW HOW THEY'VE MANAGED BUT THEIR PUTTING THEM ALL THROUGH SCHOOL. 17:22 THAT'S THE STRENGTH OF THE LORD. 17:23 SO THIS IS CHURCH NUMBER NINE. 17:25 WOW, WOW. 17:29 THIS IS SOME OF THE LANDSCAPE AND IT'S A VIEW FROM THE CHURCH STEPS 17:33 LOOKING DOWN TOWARDS THE HIGHWAY. 17:35 YES, GOOD. 17:38 THEY FIRST OF ALL BUILT WHAT THEY NOW CALL A LAMB SHELTER. 17:41 THIS WAS THE CHURCH THAT THEY WORSHIPED IN UNTIL THEY, WELL FIRST OF ALL 17:45 THEY STARTED WORSHIPPING IN A BARANGAY HALL WHICH IS NOTHING MORE THAN ABOUT 17:49 TEN PEOPLE COULD SIT INSIDE. 17:52 THE REST OF THEM HAD TO SIT OUTSIDE AND LISTEN. 17:57 THEN WHEN THEY GOT THIS PROPERTY THE FIRST THING THEY DID WAS TO BUILD THIS 18:00 LITTLE SHELTER WHICH THEY HAD IN THEIR PLANS AT THE VERY BEGINNING WAS THIS 18:05 WOULD BECOME A LAMB SHELTER. 18:07 AND SO NOW THAT THEY HAVE A CHURCH THIS IS THE PLACE FOR THE CHILDREN. 18:09 THE KIDS. 18:11 AND YOU KNOW LAMB SHELTERS, I HAVE HEARD ABOUT LAMB SHELTERS. 18:13 PAULINE BARNETT AND DOYLE BARNETT WERE MISSIONARIES IN ASIA FOR 43 YEARS AND 18:18 AUNT POLLY AS I CALLED HER, SHE WAS THE CHILDREN'S MINISTRY 18:21 DIRECTOR FOR THE FAR EASTERN DIVISION AND IT WAS AUNT POLLY WHO GOT 18:25 LAMB SHELTERS GOING AND IT'S FANTASTIC TO SEE THAT THEY'RE STILL CARING FOR 18:31 THE CHILDREN, A PLACE TO GET OUT OF THE RAIN, TO GREET OUT OF THE SUN AND 18:34 GIVE THEM A PROGRAM THAT THEY UNDERSTAND. 18:35 OH ABSOLUTELY, ABSOLUTELY. 18:37 BECAUSE A LOT OF TIMES SHE WOULD SAY THAT THE ADULTS HAD A PLACE TO GO BUT 18:38 WHERE WERE THE KIDS GOING TO GO. 18:40 AND THEY MIGHT BE UNDER A MANGO TREE OR PAPAYA TREE OR SOMETHING BUT TO HAVE 18:45 SOMETHING LIKE THAT AND IT'S VERY EXCITING TO SEE THAT THE LORD IS 18:50 CONTINUING TO DO THAT. 18:52 BERNADETTE, THE WIFE USUALLY LEADS OUT IN THE CHILDREN'S PROGRAM AND 18:57 SHE'S JUST FANTASTIC. 18:58 GREAT, I LOVE IT, I LOVE IT. 19:01 THEY'RE A GREAT TEAM. 19:03 BUT THEY'RE NOT PROUD PEOPLE. 19:05 THIS IS WHERE THEY LIVE. 19:06 BLESS THEIR HEARTS. 19:09 THEY LIVE NOTHING ABOVE THEIR NEIGHBORS. 19:12 THEY'RE RIGHT THERE WITH THEM LIVING IN THE SAME WAY. 19:18 THIS IS ONE OF THEIR, ACTUALLY SHE IS NOT A CHURCH MEMBER YET. 19:21 SHE IS INTERESTED BUT NOT YET DECIDED. 19:25 BUT LEARNING MORE ABOUT JESUS. 19:26 THESE THREE YOUNG LADIES WERE FINISHING HIGH SCHOOL AND WANTED TO GO TO 19:31 COLLEGE. 19:33 WE WERE ABLE TO FIND SOME FUNDING TO SEND THEM ON TO COLLEGE AND THEY ARE NOW 19:39 FINISHING UP THEIR FIRST YEAR. 19:42 WONDERFUL. 19:43 THEY WERE THE ONLY CHURCH MEMBERS IN THEIR FAMILY. 19:49 AND THAT'S THE REASON WHY THEY NEEDED SOME HELP BECAUSE THEIR FAMILIES 19:51 COULDN'T AFFORD AND THE FAMILIES WERE NOT CHRISTIANS AND THEY DIDN'T 19:54 SEE ANY REASON WHY WE NEEDED TO SEND THEM OFF. 19:57 AS A RESULT OF US PROVIDING SOME FUNDING FOR THEM TO GET AN EDUCATION 20:03 THE FAMILIES OF EACH OF THEM HAVE BEEN BAPTIZED NOW. 20:04 WOW, LOOK HOW THE LORD LEADS. 20:05 AND WHERE ARE THEY GOING TO SCHOOL FRED? 20:06 IT'S A PUBLIC COLLEGE ON PALAWAN. 20:08 IN PALAWAN, OKAY. 20:09 TWO OF THEM ARE TAKING WHAT THEY CALL HOSPITALITY TO WORK IN THE HOTELS AND 20:10 THINGS LIKE THAT AND ONE I THINK IS TAKING ENGINEERING. 20:12 THESE ARE THE FAMILY OF ONE OF THEM THAT HAVE NOW BEEN BAPTIZED THE MOTHER 20:13 AND FATHER AND A SISTER AS A RESULT OF HER GOING OFF TO COLLEGE AND REALIZING 20:18 THAT THERE WERE PEOPLE IN THE WORLD WHO THOUGHT ENOUGH OF THEIR DAUGHTER. 20:20 THEY SAID WE WANT TO JOIN THAT GROUP OF PEOPLE. 20:24 THIS IS ANOTHER ONE WITH HER FAMILY THAT HAVE NOW BEEN BAPTIZED. 20:29 WELL WE NEED TO PRAY FOR THESE YOUNG WOMEN AS THEY ARE MAKING STRIDES IN 20:31 THEIR EDUCATION AND LOOK AT THE WITNESS THAT THEY HAVE BEEN TO THEIR 20:33 FAMILIES AND TO THE WITNESS THAT THEY PROBABLY ARE AT THE UNIVERSITIES 20:35 WHERE THEY GO AS WELL. 20:36 RIGHT. 20:36 SO I'M VERY HAPPY TO SEE THESE. 20:38 OKAY, NOW WE'RE DOWN CLOSE TO SANTA LOURDES NOT VERY FAR OUT FROM PUERTO 20:39 PRINCESA WHICH IS THE CAPITAL CITY OF THE PROVINCE. 20:44 THIS IS ANOTHER ONE OF OUR GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKERS MAR LEANO. 21:24 THE SIGN LEADING TO WHERE HIS CHURCH IS AND IS MAR AND HIS WIFE STANDING IN 21:31 FRONT OF THE CHURCH ITSELF. 21:33 NOW THIS CHURCH IS A LITTLE DIFFERENT. 21:37 OH, YOU HAVE TO CLIMB UP THE STAIRS TO THE MAIN FLOOR. 21:40 ONE DAY THEY WILL HAVE SOME STAIRS LEADING UP THERE BUT NOW THEY HAVE TO 21:43 CLIMB A LADDER. 21:44 THEY CLIMB A LADDER, WHY NOT. 21:45 AND THEY ARE HAVING SERVICES THERE. 21:46 GOOD. 21:47 BUT THAT'S THE WAY INTO THE CHURCH. 21:49 SO YOU SAID THAT THIS GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKER, THIS IS HIS CHURCH. 21:51 IS HE ALSO THE PASTOR HERE OR ARE YOU JUST SAYING THIS IS WHERE HE ATTENDS? 21:56 THIS IS THE CHURCH THAT HE HAS RAISED UP. 21:58 THAT HE HAS RAISED UP. 22:00 YES, WOW. 22:01 YES THEY SERVE AS PASTORS TO BEGIN WITH. 22:03 SURE, THEY PROBABLY DO BOTH. 22:05 BUT THEY ARE IN THE PROCESS OF TRAINING THE MEMBERS TO TAKE OVER AND 22:10 TO BE THE ONES RESPONSIBLE FOR THE CHURCH. 22:12 YES BECAUSE NOT EVERY CHURCH IS GOING TO HAVE A PASTOR AND SO THAT'S WHERE 22:16 THE LAY PEOPLE COME IN AS WELL. 22:17 AND IF THEY DO HAVE A PASTOR THEY'LL SHARE HIM WITH MAYBE 20 OTHER 22:20 CHURCHES. 22:21 YES, EXACTLY. 22:22 SO THEY MAY SEE THEIR THEIR PASTOR ONCE OUT OF TWO OR THREE MONTHS. 22:28 TWO OR THREE TIMES A YEAR. 22:32 OKAY, SO TAKE US BACK. 22:33 SO THIS, THIS IS STILL THAT SAME CHURCH. 22:35 IT'S A LITTLE DIFFERENT DESIGN FROM WHAT YOU USUALLY THINK OF AS A 22:39 CHURCH BUT HE SAYS THERE'S GOING TO BE FAÇADE ON THE FRONT THAT WILL MAKE IT 22:43 LOOK LIKE A CHURCH. 22:45 WELL NEXT TIME YOU CAN BRING PHOTOS OF IT ALL DONE. 22:48 WELL I WAS HOPING I WOULD SEE IT ALL DONE THIS YEAR BECAUSE THEY WERE POURING 22:51 THE FOUNDATIONS AND THE PILLARS WHEN I WAS THERE LAST YEAR. 22:54 BUT HE DIDN'T HAVE AS MUCH MONEY APPARENTLY AS THE OTHER ONE. 22:57 WELL THESE THINGS TAKE TIME. 22:58 THEY TAKE TIME AND THEY TAKE MONEY. 23:00 BUT IT'S GOING TO BE NICE INSIDE WHEN IT'S FINISHED. 23:03 YES. 23:04 THEY'RE LOOKING FORWARD TO A NICE CHURCH THERE. 23:09 AND THERE WERE A FEW OF THE MEMBERS GATHERED TOGETHER. 23:12 AGAIN YOU KNOW WHEN YOU ARRIVE AND IT'S NOT SABBATH YOU CAN'T EXPECT 23:16 VERY MANY PEOPLE TO COME. 23:17 YES, BUT I'M JUST IMPRESSED WITH THE NUMBER THAT DID COME OUT TO SEE 23:21 YOU. 23:22 SO THAT'S MY LAST PICTURE. 23:23 YES. 23:24 SO FRED YOU'VE SHARED WITH US. 23:25 MANY THING WE'VE SEEN, MANY DIFFERENT PLACES AND AGAIN TO SIT HERE AND SEE 23:31 AND HEAR THE STORIES OF ALL OF OUR GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKERS AND WHAT ARE THE 23:36 THINGS THAT YOU'RE EXCITED ABOUT, A NEED THAT YOU SEE. 23:40 WHAT CAN YOU SHARE WITH OUR VIEWERS? 23:42 WELL I'M EXCITED ABOUT THE PROGRESS. 23:45 FOR THE PEOPLE THAT HEAR THE MESSAGE AND THE HOLY SPIRIT CONVICTS THEM TO 23:51 ACCEPT AND TO ACCEPT JESUS AS THEIR PERSONAL SAVIOR. 23:54 AND THE THING THAT I REALLY LIKE IS WHEN I COME BACK THE NEXT YEAR AND 24:00 THEY'RE STILL THERE. 24:02 YES. 24:03 I SEE MANY BAPTISMS AND HOPEFULLY MOST OF THESE REMAIN TRUE. 24:08 BUT IT TAKES NURTURE AND THAT'S THE REASON WHY GOSPEL OUTREACH ALLOWS 24:11 FIVE YEARS. 24:13 BECAUSE IN THAT FIVE YEARS WE EXPECT THE GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKER TO RAISE 24:16 UP A CHURCH TO TRAIN THE CHURCH MEMBERS TO BE THEIR OWN LEADERS AND TO MATURE 24:24 THEM SPIRITUALLY SO THAT EVEN IF THEY HAVE NO SPIRITUAL SHEPHERD THAT 24:30 THEY WILL STAY IN THE FOLD. 24:31 YES. 24:32 WELL AS WE MENTIONED THAT'S STAYING CONNECTED TO THE LORD. 24:34 AND ARE MANY OF THESE CHURCH MEMBERS, ARE THEY LITERATE IN THESE 24:38 PARTICULAR AREAS? 24:39 IN THESE AREAS MANY OF THEM ARE YES. 24:41 THEY ARE, OKAY. 24:42 AND THEY DO HAVE ACCESS TO BIBLES AND ALL OF THAT. 24:45 YES. 24:45 SO THEY CAN GET BIBLES. 24:46 WELL AS I SHOWED YOU THE THREE COLLEGE STUDENTS. 24:49 RIGHT EXACTLY, SO THOSE THREE WOMEN. 24:52 WELL THIS IS JUST REALLY EXCITING AND AS YOU CONTINUE TO TALK WITH THEM 24:56 PLEASE ENCOURAGE THEM THAT OUR VIEWERS AND ALL OF AT GOSPEL OUTREACH ARE 25:01 PRAYING FOR THEM AND IT'S SO NEAT TO BE ABLE TO SEE THE PHOTOS, TO SEE THE 25:05 PEOPLE AND TO HEAR THE STORIES AND TO SEE THE CHURCHES HOW YES THEY 25:09 STARTED HERE AND WHEN YOU GO BACK THAT THEY ARE BEING BUILT AND THE PEOPLE 25:13 ARE COMING. 25:14 YOU MAY WONDER WHY WE GO OUT ONCE A YEAR. 25:18 I CONSIDER THERE ARE FOUR THINGS, FOUR REASON WHY I GO. 25:20 ONE IS TO SEE THAT THE WORKERS ARE DOING THE WORK WE WANT THEM TO DO. 25:25 AND SECONDLY HOPEFULLY TO ENCOURAGE THEM A LITTLE BIT THAT THEY'LL, YOU 25:30 KNOW, KEEP THEIR SPIRITS UP BECAUSE MANY OF THEM ARE SOMEWHAT ISOLATED. 25:33 YES. 25:35 AND SO IT'S GOOD TO ENCOURAGE THEM AND KEEP THEM GOING. 25:38 THE THIRD IS TO MAKE SURE THAT THE CONFERENCE OR MISSION IS USING THE MONEY 25:42 PROPERLY. 25:43 AND FOR THE MOST PART I CAN TELL THE DONORS YOUR MONEY IS BEING USED WELL. 25:49 YOUR MONEY IS WINING SOULS FOR JESUS. 25:51 SO WITHOUT YOUR MONEY THERE WOULD BE FEWER PEOPLE IN THE KINGDOM. 25:56 YES. 25:57 SO THERE WILL STARS IN THE CROWNS OF THESE DONORS BECAUSE OF WHAT THEY HAVE 26:00 DONE. 26:02 WELL YES, AND WE KEEP SAYING THIS THAT FOR PEOPLE FROM NORTH AMERICA, 26:07 FROM EUROPE AND ALL OF THAT FOR US TO MOVE TO PALAWAN WE DON'T SPEAK THE 26:12 LOCAL DIALECTS, WE DON'T, AND SO TO HAVE THE GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKERS WHO ARE 26:16 THERE WHO KNOW THESE PEOPLE, RUB SHOULDERS WITH THEM THAT'S THE BEAUTIFUL 26:19 THING OF HOW THE STRUCTURE OF GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKS. 26:21 THEY DON'T MAKE THE MISTAKES THAT I MADE DURING MY 17 YEARS OF 26:24 OVERSEAS SERVICE. 26:26 HEY, WELL YOU KNOW THE LORD'S WITH ALL OF US SO WE ALL ARE MISSIONARIES 26:28 WHEREVER WE ARE. 26:30 SO FRED WEBB THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR BEING HERE WITH US AND MAY THE LORD BLESS 26:33 YOU IN YOUR WORK IN THE PHILIPPINES AND THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME HERE TODAY. 26:37 AND THANK YOU FOR WATCHING. 26:38 WE WANT TO SAY OUR THANKS TO YOU FOR BEING INVOLVED. 26:40 THANK YOU FOR WATCHING OUR PROGRAMS AT ADVENTURES IN MISSIONS. 26:43 THANK YOU FOR Y OUR DONATIONS, YOUR PRAYERS. 26:45 THANK YOU FOR GOING ONLINE AND LIKING US AT FACEBOOK. 26:48 AND WE JUST ARE SO BLESSED AND WE THANK YOU. 26:50 WE'LL SEE YOU NEXT TIME ON ADVENTURES IN MISSIONS FOR GOSPEL OUTREACH AND MAY 26:53 THE LORD BLESS YOU TODAY. 27:30 [CLOSING MUSIC] |
