(inspirational music begins)
00:00:00.80\00:00:03.80
- Hello and welcome
to Jesus For Asia Now.
00:00:22.02\00:00:24.72
I'm Natalie Wood and
my husband John is here
00:00:24.72\00:00:26.72
with me today and we
are going together to India.
00:00:26.72\00:00:30.39
Hello, love.
00:00:30.39\00:00:31.23
- Hi darling.
00:00:31.23\00:00:32.06
How are you?
00:00:32.06\00:00:33.09
- I'm looking forward to India.
00:00:33.09\00:00:34.20
- Yes.
00:00:34.20\00:00:35.00
- I miss India.
00:00:35.00\00:00:35.90
- Yes.
00:00:35.90\00:00:37.13
You haven't been
there for quite a while.
00:00:37.13\00:00:38.03
- Right, right.
00:00:38.03\00:00:39.57
And we're going together
today, to where in India?
00:00:39.57\00:00:42.64
- Well, this is up in
the northeast part of India.
00:00:42.64\00:00:44.97
You know how India is kind
of like a diamond or you know
00:00:44.97\00:00:48.31
shaped like a cone and then
00:00:48.31\00:00:49.61
on the eastern
side it cruises way
00:00:49.61\00:00:52.21
up over Bangladesh
and then touches Myanmar
00:00:52.21\00:00:56.92
or what used to be
called Burma on the far east.
00:00:56.92\00:01:00.09
- [Natalie] Okay.
00:01:00.09\00:01:01.16
- [John] And this
state is Manipur down
00:01:01.16\00:01:02.72
in the lower section of the
farthest eastern part of India.
00:01:02.72\00:01:07.66
As we zoom in, we can see
that Manipur is very mountainous
00:01:07.66\00:01:10.97
except for a flat plain
in the center with a lake.
00:01:10.97\00:01:14.94
And if you look real close just
00:01:14.94\00:01:16.94
to the left of
that brownish area
00:01:16.94\00:01:19.97
there's like a brown
dot up in the mountains.
00:01:19.97\00:01:22.94
We're gonna zoom
into that brown dot
00:01:22.94\00:01:24.91
and you'll see Khoupum Valley.
00:01:24.91\00:01:27.05
Keep zooming in.
00:01:27.05\00:01:28.75
And this is the valley itself.
00:01:28.75\00:01:30.82
And over on the right
hand side you zoom in again.
00:01:30.82\00:01:34.09
- [Natalie] Okay.
00:01:34.09\00:01:35.46
- [John] You'll see that's
the school we're going to today.
00:01:35.46\00:01:37.43
- So how did we find out
00:01:37.43\00:01:38.79
about this school and how
did Jesus for Asia get involved?
00:01:38.79\00:01:41.33
- Well, our good friends, Dennis
00:01:41.33\00:01:42.66
and Judy Skandunas
have been traveling
00:01:42.66\00:01:45.87
to Asia for many years now.
00:01:45.87\00:01:47.90
They were going to like a
maranatha build or something
00:01:47.90\00:01:50.77
and there was a young man
that they ended up talking to.
00:01:50.77\00:01:53.58
He's from Nepal and
they ended up sponsoring him
00:01:53.58\00:01:56.24
through college,
through Spicer University.
00:01:56.24\00:01:58.88
- Okay.
00:01:58.88\00:02:00.25
- And he found this
school way over in Manipur
00:02:00.25\00:02:02.75
maybe on one of his
mission trips or something.
00:02:02.75\00:02:05.32
And he fell in
love with the school.
00:02:05.32\00:02:06.59
He saw this school
really needed help.
00:02:06.59\00:02:08.42
It was a worthy cause.
00:02:08.42\00:02:09.79
- Mm.
00:02:09.79\00:02:10.59
- [John] So he stayed there.
00:02:10.59\00:02:11.63
- Okay.
00:02:11.63\00:02:12.96
- [John] And he took on
this project all on his own.
00:02:12.96\00:02:15.63
- Wow.
00:02:15.63\00:02:16.43
- And the school was remarkable
00:02:16.43\00:02:17.73
because it had been in
service for almost 50 years.
00:02:17.73\00:02:20.70
- Hmm.
00:02:20.70\00:02:22.07
- There's three churches,
three Adventist churches
00:02:22.07\00:02:23.94
around that area
and all the elders
00:02:23.94\00:02:26.11
from those churches had
gotten together and says
00:02:26.11\00:02:28.24
we need a school
to educate our kids.
00:02:28.24\00:02:30.78
- Wow.
00:02:30.78\00:02:32.08
- But over the years,
there's been several schools
00:02:32.08\00:02:34.38
developed by other denominations
that are very well funded.
00:02:34.38\00:02:38.05
They've got massive
buildings, they've got buses to
00:02:38.05\00:02:40.79
bust the children,
they've got computer labs
00:02:40.79\00:02:43.06
and all this kind of stuff.
00:02:43.06\00:02:44.09
And this little
school was just barely
00:02:44.09\00:02:46.86
- Hanging on. -
[John] Making it on its own.
00:02:46.86\00:02:48.53
So Dennis and Judy went
to visit him at that school
00:02:48.53\00:02:51.77
and they stayed there for a
long time and he kept telling us
00:02:51.77\00:02:54.30
how amazing the school was
and how needy it was and just
00:02:54.30\00:02:58.17
it was just so, so
close to his heart.
00:02:58.17\00:03:00.41
We see schools as
long term evangelism.
00:03:00.41\00:03:03.31
- Right.
00:03:03.31\00:03:04.68
- [John] Because you come in
and do an evangelistic series
00:03:04.68\00:03:06.95
and it gives a lot of
information, but it doesn't have
00:03:06.95\00:03:09.82
like a lifestyle
change environment.
00:03:09.82\00:03:13.66
- Right.
00:03:13.66\00:03:14.89
- A school gives an
environment in which the kids
00:03:14.89\00:03:17.09
can change over the
course of many years.
00:03:17.09\00:03:20.13
- Right.
00:03:20.13\00:03:21.20
- [John] And so
we started praying
00:03:21.20\00:03:22.50
and thinking about it and
helping it here and there and...
00:03:22.50\00:03:25.30
- So since people were
already donating for the school,
00:03:25.30\00:03:28.00
Dennis and Judy were
sharing about the school,
00:03:28.00\00:03:29.94
they shared
about it at Faith Camp,
00:03:29.94\00:03:31.61
we decided to make
it an official project
00:03:31.61\00:03:34.21
- [John] Yes.
00:03:34.21\00:03:35.04
- At Jesus Frazier.
00:03:35.04\00:03:36.31
So people can donate
directly to the Manipur school.
00:03:36.31\00:03:39.98
- [John] Yeah.
00:03:39.98\00:03:40.82
- Through JFA.
00:03:40.82\00:03:41.95
- Yeah, and so we
just recently sent
00:03:41.95\00:03:43.82
our video team over there.
00:03:43.82\00:03:45.69
- Right.
00:03:45.69\00:03:47.06
- And this is the video
that they came back with.
00:03:47.06\00:03:48.89
- [Natalie] Okay.
00:03:48.89\00:03:50.36
- Actually I
came for my vacation.
00:03:50.36\00:03:52.59
But when I came for my
vacation, I see the school
00:03:52.59\00:03:55.90
which has been
established since 1972.
00:03:58.87\00:04:01.20
But seeing the school condition,
00:04:02.27\00:04:03.51
I was just
wondering because knowing
00:04:03.51\00:04:06.21
that
Seventh-Day Adventist is not
00:04:06.21\00:04:08.18
a small organization or a church
00:04:08.18\00:04:11.01
and having a
Seventh-day Adventist school
00:04:11.01\00:04:12.65
in such kind of condition,
I was feeling really pity.
00:04:12.65\00:04:15.22
So I thought if
we can do something.
00:04:15.22\00:04:19.02
(pensive music)
00:04:19.02\00:04:21.76
(loud school bell chiming)
00:04:26.43\00:04:30.03
(footsteps on dirt)
00:04:31.37\00:04:34.44
- In 1972, the
Adventist people of Taulingpong
00:04:36.50\00:04:41.01
and Tutangsang got together
00:04:41.01\00:04:43.18
and decided that they will
set up this Adventist school.
00:04:43.18\00:04:46.45
The school has
suffered a lot in the past.
00:04:51.15\00:04:54.72
There were moments
of tears and heartache.
00:04:54.72\00:04:58.23
Initially the school
did not have a tin roof
00:04:58.23\00:05:01.46
and the walls were made
of bamboo and thatched roof.
00:05:01.46\00:05:05.07
We collected the
materials for the building
00:05:06.30\00:05:09.20
from a far
distance in the mountain.
00:05:09.20\00:05:11.84
The hope of
having a good building
00:05:12.94\00:05:15.28
in the future
motivate us to work
00:05:15.28\00:05:18.68
for the school relentlessly.
00:05:18.68\00:05:21.55
We prayed in our family churches
00:05:21.55\00:05:24.49
and the school committee
get together and prayed
00:05:24.49\00:05:27.89
that God will
provide the help needed
00:05:27.89\00:05:31.03
for the school
in the near future.
00:05:31.03\00:05:33.19
(music continues)
00:05:34.23\00:05:37.57
But sadly, most of the pioneers
who work together with me,
00:05:37.57\00:05:42.54
around 20 of
them had passed away.
00:05:42.54\00:05:45.57
And since then
we were so worried
00:05:46.84\00:05:49.44
that the school will
not continue to go on.
00:05:49.44\00:05:53.38
Since our elders and the
pioneers have gone and passed
00:05:53.38\00:05:57.59
away. (yelling
in foreign language)
00:06:01.29\00:06:05.19
(wooden stick pounding)
00:06:06.63\00:06:10.00
(metal tins clanking)
00:06:10.90\00:06:14.47
- Can you open this?
00:06:14.47\00:06:16.20
- I happened to
come in this place.
00:06:19.11\00:06:22.58
And then actually I
came for my vacation.
00:06:22.58\00:06:26.01
But when I came for my vacation
00:06:26.01\00:06:27.42
I see the school which
has been established in 1972.
00:06:27.42\00:06:32.62
But seeing the
school's condition
00:06:33.69\00:06:34.49
I was just wondering because the
00:06:34.49\00:06:36.49
the roof now when it was raining
was dropping the rain drops
00:06:36.49\00:06:41.53
of water inside the classrooms
00:06:42.33\00:06:44.07
and there were no
proper concrete floor.
00:06:44.07\00:06:47.00
So it was fully muddy.
00:06:47.00\00:06:48.50
And when the children walk in
00:06:48.50\00:06:49.84
it was like their shoes
were quite thick, you know?
00:06:49.84\00:06:53.61
And then that was
another challenging and
00:06:53.61\00:06:55.91
the walls were made of bamboo.
00:06:57.05\00:06:59.31
So when the wind and storm comes
00:06:59.31\00:07:01.48
children were very frightened.
00:07:01.48\00:07:03.89
So those were the conditions.
00:07:03.89\00:07:05.79
Knowing that
Seventh-day Adventist
00:07:05.79\00:07:07.86
is not a small
organization or a church
00:07:07.86\00:07:11.33
and having a
Seventh-day Adventist school
00:07:11.33\00:07:12.99
in such kind of condition,
I was feeling really pity.
00:07:12.99\00:07:16.40
So I thought if
we can do something.
00:07:16.40\00:07:19.83
So that's how I landed out here.
00:07:19.83\00:07:21.90
(brooms sweeping concrete)
00:07:23.00\00:07:25.31
(indistinct conversation)
00:07:25.31\00:07:29.14
(construction noises)
00:07:29.14\00:07:33.05
(tarp rustling)
00:07:33.05\00:07:35.78
- [Camera Person] Do
you know what is this for?
00:07:36.89\00:07:38.62
- Huh?
00:07:38.62\00:07:39.75
- [Camera
Person] What is this for?
00:07:39.75\00:07:40.56
- For dividing the classes.
00:07:40.56\00:07:42.82
(pensive music)
00:07:42.82\00:07:45.56
- [Kagugai] Our
school is fractured so bad
00:07:47.73\00:07:49.10
that even in the nearby villages
00:07:49.10\00:07:52.60
they don't send
their students here.
00:07:52.60\00:07:54.40
They let their
students walk around
00:07:54.40\00:07:57.84
more than 2
kilometers from their house.
00:07:57.84\00:08:00.91
But this school is
right beside their house.
00:08:00.91\00:08:03.88
(children singing)
00:08:03.88\00:08:05.51
- [Gainimlu] So
there is no window, no fan.
00:08:05.51\00:08:08.38
During the hot days,
really it is very hot.
00:08:08.38\00:08:12.62
No fresh wind comes in.
00:08:12.62\00:08:15.29
So the children,
they struggle a lot.
00:08:15.29\00:08:17.83
- [Richard] The facilities,
I should say we are way behind.
00:08:17.83\00:08:22.60
They have a
classrooms, but the lower class,
00:08:22.60\00:08:24.73
they don't have
proper classrooms.
00:08:24.73\00:08:27.94
They have a
classroom who is clustered
00:08:27.94\00:08:30.21
and compact and no
proper place for washing hands.
00:08:31.57\00:08:35.64
No proper place
for hygiene practices.
00:08:35.64\00:08:39.31
(music continues)
00:08:39.31\00:08:42.22
(bugs chittering
and birds chirping)
00:08:45.09\00:08:49.56
(water splashing)
00:08:51.66\00:08:54.56
- [Andy] I live in Numba
and the place is, from here
00:08:55.86\00:08:59.70
it's about 47
kilometers from here.
00:08:59.70\00:09:03.30
Around one and a half hour
00:09:03.30\00:09:05.97
in the roads in the hilly
place, the road is not good.
00:09:05.97\00:09:08.44
So it takes time.
00:09:08.44\00:09:10.78
When I first came, it was hard.
00:09:11.58\00:09:13.72
And I was
sleeping on three step bed.
00:09:13.72\00:09:18.15
When it was hot it
was very hard to manage,
00:09:18.15\00:09:21.12
you know, one bed.
00:09:21.12\00:09:22.42
Both of us sleep together.
00:09:22.42\00:09:23.86
- [Pasang] You know,
after the request of parents,
00:09:25.36\00:09:28.00
we even put in
one bed, two student,
00:09:28.00\00:09:31.53
so it was like
80 student, like 40.
00:09:31.53\00:09:34.37
But some of the
parents start complaining
00:09:34.37\00:09:37.11
because it was a Covid time.
00:09:37.11\00:09:39.31
You know, people
00:09:39.31\00:09:40.68
the whole world is
asking us to maintain distance.
00:09:40.68\00:09:42.61
And whereas we make them
sleep together and you know
00:09:42.61\00:09:45.31
there was a crisis.
00:09:45.31\00:09:46.65
So the 80, we have to
put it down into 40 again.
00:09:46.65\00:09:49.98
So that was another
big challenge that we had.
00:09:49.98\00:09:52.12
So if that moment,
if we had enough room,
00:09:52.12\00:09:55.89
I think that all the,
it could have been here.
00:09:55.89\00:09:58.26
- [Richard] And staff rooms,
00:10:03.83\00:10:05.13
we don't have a
proper drinking water.
00:10:05.13\00:10:08.20
We have to carry our own bottle
00:10:09.30\00:10:10.71
which will finish in hot days.
00:10:10.71\00:10:12.44
And it's not enough.
00:10:12.44\00:10:14.48
- When there is electricity,
we pump water from the river
00:10:14.48\00:10:17.58
the same river
where we take bath.
00:10:17.58\00:10:19.88
And if there is no electricity
00:10:19.88\00:10:21.72
we request all the 40
student to go with each bucket.
00:10:21.72\00:10:26.19
And then they carry
one, one bucket and they
00:10:26.19\00:10:28.52
they drop it to eat.
00:10:28.52\00:10:29.92
And this water, we
try as much as to boil.
00:10:29.92\00:10:33.29
We use fire root here
00:10:33.29\00:10:34.76
and we try to boil it
and give them the water.
00:10:34.76\00:10:37.47
So that's the only
option we are doing.
00:10:37.47\00:10:40.07
- [Andy] The water is not clean.
00:10:40.07\00:10:41.64
We used to drink when
it's sunny, when we get thirsty
00:10:41.64\00:10:45.21
nobody cares that when the
water is there we just drink it.
00:10:45.21\00:10:49.18
Whether it's pure,
whether it's not pure.
00:10:49.18\00:10:51.71
So because of that some,
some of the students get sick.
00:10:51.71\00:10:55.62
(children singing)
00:10:56.89\00:10:59.75
(clapping)
00:11:02.56\00:11:04.89
(hammering)
00:11:05.76\00:11:08.13
- [Richard] We
don't have a place
00:11:09.83\00:11:11.23
to keep our things.
00:11:11.23\00:11:13.47
The teachers' room.
00:11:15.14\00:11:16.17
It keeps on
shifting from one place
00:11:17.21\00:11:18.71
to another place
depending on the situation.
00:11:18.71\00:11:21.31
- [Gainimlu] Also we
don't have separate toilets.
00:11:22.64\00:11:24.38
We are using the same
toilets as the children.
00:11:24.38\00:11:26.41
Sometimes we go to the
toilets, and they are full.
00:11:26.41\00:11:28.98
Sometimes students
are running inside also.
00:11:28.98\00:11:31.62
I think separate
toilets are also necessary
00:11:31.62\00:11:34.19
for the school, for the staff.
00:11:34.19\00:11:36.06
- [Richard] The lower class
will have to use the same bins
00:11:36.06\00:11:38.13
for the dining
room, for the hostellers.
00:11:38.13\00:11:40.60
And then they, then
they have to bring back
00:11:40.60\00:11:42.83
wipe it off with clothes
00:11:42.83\00:11:44.73
and use the same dining
table for the classrooms.
00:11:44.73\00:11:48.67
- [Gainimlu] Because the
hostellers they didn't have
00:11:48.67\00:11:50.31
dining room, so they
used to come and have
00:11:50.31\00:11:52.61
food here in the morning.
00:11:52.61\00:11:54.14
Then when I come,
things are not there
00:11:54.14\00:11:55.61
because the
benches are not available.
00:11:55.61\00:11:57.88
After they
finish their breakfast,
00:11:57.88\00:11:59.95
I have to take the
benches and arrange
00:11:59.95\00:12:01.22
for the classroom every day.
00:12:01.22\00:12:02.65
Almost every
day, I arrange them.
00:12:02.65\00:12:04.92
(indistinct conversation)
00:12:04.92\00:12:06.99
(chopping on wood)
00:12:06.99\00:12:09.72
(metal tray clanking)
00:12:09.72\00:12:11.79
- [Pasang] This is
our hostel cafeteria
00:12:11.79\00:12:13.43
for both boys and girls
00:12:13.43\00:12:15.86
which we use our
girls' veranda as a cafeteria.
00:12:15.86\00:12:19.87
To sit and eat,
00:12:20.94\00:12:22.04
it's not really
a normal out here,
00:12:22.04\00:12:25.01
but since we don't have any
benches or table for them to eat
00:12:25.01\00:12:28.61
so we are making
them to eat this way.
00:12:28.61\00:12:30.95
We serve mostly Dahl.
00:12:30.95\00:12:33.08
And then with some green leaves
00:12:33.08\00:12:36.25
since we can't
afford much best food.
00:12:36.25\00:12:38.95
So that's the simplest
food we could give them.
00:12:38.95\00:12:42.96
(soft laughter)
00:12:42.96\00:12:45.69
- [Kagugai]
Because of the funds,
00:12:46.73\00:12:48.20
our school doesn't
have any things for that so
00:12:48.20\00:12:51.13
mostly we teach verbally
00:12:51.13\00:12:52.60
only through
teaching through theory.
00:12:52.60\00:12:54.77
So we hardly get
to this practical.
00:12:54.77\00:12:57.21
Even I,
00:12:57.21\00:12:58.01
I even sacrifice my salary
00:12:59.04\00:13:00.84
to buy all these
practical things.
00:13:00.84\00:13:02.91
- There is no other
resources for the school.
00:13:02.91\00:13:04.98
But for the teachers, if
the parents pay, parents pay
00:13:04.98\00:13:07.88
then we got our salaries.
00:13:07.88\00:13:09.08
We get a salary.
00:13:09.08\00:13:10.45
If they don't pay, then
we have to wait for them.
00:13:10.45\00:13:12.39
- [Kagugai] Even me, I have
a lot of work to do at home.
00:13:12.39\00:13:15.22
Like , during free
time, I run for my farm.
00:13:15.22\00:13:19.23
The orange farm.
00:13:19.23\00:13:20.23
And I did some...
00:13:20.23\00:13:21.30
There, from there
we get some income.
00:13:21.30\00:13:23.73
So we manage with that.
00:13:23.73\00:13:25.23
- [Gainimlu] We
have soil cultivation.
00:13:25.23\00:13:26.84
And we have some small
garden, we have some farm.
00:13:26.84\00:13:29.70
So from there,
we get vegetables.
00:13:29.70\00:13:32.07
And food we get
from the paddy field.
00:13:32.07\00:13:34.91
- [Richard] Of course
we are getting a lot of pay
00:13:34.91\00:13:37.28
outside of Manipur,
outside different places.
00:13:37.28\00:13:40.28
But here I'm
getting just a small amount
00:13:40.28\00:13:43.25
with 6,000 to 7,000 maybe.
00:13:43.25\00:13:46.86
We have a better opportunity
even till now and then
00:13:46.86\00:13:51.93
like calling
from different places.
00:13:53.06\00:13:54.63
We need a music teacher,
we're gonna pay you 50,000
00:13:54.63\00:13:56.20
in a month and all
those offers are there.
00:13:56.20\00:13:58.97
But I have a duty
00:13:58.97\00:14:01.54
which I should do
for our own church and
00:14:01.54\00:14:04.11
for our own people
and for my own people.
00:14:04.11\00:14:06.81
So I said no to those offers.
00:14:06.81\00:14:10.58
And then I'm here
for whatever amount.
00:14:10.58\00:14:13.98
- [Pasang] Teachers
are sacrificing only
00:14:15.12\00:14:16.72
with 50 to
hundred dollars a month.
00:14:16.72\00:14:19.42
And knowing that our
school has a very less income
00:14:19.42\00:14:24.26
and the teachers are not
getting the salary on time.
00:14:24.26\00:14:27.36
So you know, there
comes a time we find very hard
00:14:27.36\00:14:31.03
for our parents to
convince them to pay their dues
00:14:31.03\00:14:34.70
or their fees every month.
00:14:34.70\00:14:36.50
And then when the
teachers, you know
00:14:36.50\00:14:37.91
come and tell
because they come and ask,
00:14:37.91\00:14:40.68
Sir, we have no option
then to ask the money from you.
00:14:40.68\00:14:45.31
But again, I have no resource,
no income for the school.
00:14:45.31\00:14:48.25
So like, you know, all
those challenges were there.
00:14:48.25\00:14:51.75
- If we have to
compare it in terms
00:14:54.22\00:14:55.86
of money and in terms of
value, I would say it is very
00:14:55.86\00:15:00.36
very hard to keep
us ourselves motivated
00:15:00.36\00:15:03.60
for this small amount of
money that we have to sacrifice
00:15:03.60\00:15:06.47
to the whole day, the
whole month, the whole year.
00:15:06.47\00:15:09.50
But knowing that
this is the only school
00:15:11.17\00:15:15.28
and this is the first school
00:15:15.28\00:15:19.51
from this whole
area, Khoupum area.
00:15:19.51\00:15:21.82
And knowing that it
is an Adventist school
00:15:21.82\00:15:23.95
and I'm an Adventist
00:15:23.95\00:15:25.45
so I want this
school to keep on going.
00:15:25.45\00:15:28.96
So with whatever I can, I want
the school to keep on going.
00:15:28.96\00:15:33.83
Okay.
00:15:34.86\00:15:36.40
- [Andy] I came to know, yes,
00:15:36.40\00:15:37.20
this is the best school which we
00:15:37.20\00:15:39.97
can learn a good thing,
discipline, whatever we need.
00:15:39.97\00:15:44.37
This is a place
which we can get.
00:15:44.37\00:15:47.04
- [Pasang] When I see
that the children's smile
00:15:47.04\00:15:50.01
when they come in
00:15:50.98\00:15:52.01
and walk in, you
know, and then knowing
00:15:52.01\00:15:54.65
if I stopped ,where
these children will go?
00:15:54.65\00:15:58.19
And this is the
only Adventist school
00:15:59.25\00:16:01.09
and me being, becoming
an Adventist true school.
00:16:02.42\00:16:06.96
And if I have to give up or
00:16:06.96\00:16:09.06
if I have to stop and
seeing those children again,
00:16:09.06\00:16:13.57
I should never do that because
those children were lost.
00:16:13.57\00:16:17.87
They were lost.
00:16:17.87\00:16:18.91
- [Kagugai] If our
school condition was good,
00:16:20.21\00:16:21.24
at least they
would have the mind
00:16:21.24\00:16:23.14
that they could send
their children to this school.
00:16:23.14\00:16:25.38
So I want, for my
side, as the teacher,
00:16:25.38\00:16:28.35
I want the sponsors to help us
00:16:28.35\00:16:31.59
complete this
building as soon as possible.
00:16:31.59\00:16:33.66
That's what I want.
00:16:33.66\00:16:35.06
- [Gainimlu] All these things
are available, then the school
00:16:35.06\00:16:36.93
will automatically will rise up.
00:16:36.93\00:16:39.86
As more students
will also be coming.
00:16:39.86\00:16:43.67
- [Richard] I want all
the children to be successful.
00:16:43.67\00:16:45.60
I don't want any of
them to be left behind.
00:16:45.60\00:16:47.57
They, they should find
value or a place in the society.
00:16:47.57\00:16:52.64
So we try as much as
possible for whatever we learn
00:16:53.91\00:16:56.71
and whatever we know
we want the kids to learn.
00:16:56.71\00:16:59.48
- [Gaichalung] I am getting old.
00:17:03.22\00:17:04.75
and my years are
increasing day by day.
00:17:04.75\00:17:08.09
I do not know when I will die,
00:17:08.09\00:17:11.06
but it is in God's hand.
00:17:11.06\00:17:13.50
And my last
hope and wish is that
00:17:16.70\00:17:20.67
before I die, I want to see
the completion of this school
00:17:20.67\00:17:25.74
with all my grandchildren
and great grandchildren
00:17:27.11\00:17:31.45
happily
attending their new school.
00:17:31.45\00:17:35.15
This is my final wish.
00:17:35.15\00:17:37.12
(emotional music begins playing)
00:17:37.12\00:17:41.29
(music fades)
00:18:09.32\00:18:11.89
- What do you
think we should do?
00:18:12.92\00:18:14.52
(soft chuckling)
00:18:14.52\00:18:15.36
- Keep going.
00:18:15.36\00:18:16.19
- [John] Mm.
00:18:16.19\00:18:16.99
- So they have finished two
00:18:16.99\00:18:18.09
of the classrooms that
they were talking about.
00:18:18.09\00:18:20.13
- Yes.
00:18:20.13\00:18:20.93
- And they're working on...
00:18:20.93\00:18:22.50
- [John] Four more.
00:18:22.50\00:18:23.87
Pasang's vision is to
have a large building that's
00:18:23.87\00:18:26.77
like 28 classrooms.
00:18:27.94\00:18:29.64
- Right.
00:18:29.64\00:18:30.71
- With teachers'
lounges and offices
00:18:30.71\00:18:34.74
and computer
labs and all the rest.
00:18:34.74\00:18:37.11
He wants a full
blown school similar
00:18:37.11\00:18:40.55
to the other ones
that are in the area.
00:18:40.55\00:18:42.88
- Mm-hmm.
00:18:42.88\00:18:44.02
- [John] Somebody
donated some funds
00:18:44.02\00:18:45.79
and we started building two
00:18:45.79\00:18:48.62
and they've got those
two done and got another four
00:18:48.62\00:18:53.70
in process because that's
the first floor of one wing.
00:18:55.03\00:18:57.60
- Okay.
00:18:57.60\00:18:58.43
- With a hallway in
00:18:58.43\00:18:59.80
between two wings and
then go up like five floors.
00:18:59.80\00:19:02.50
- Okay.
00:19:02.50\00:19:03.84
- [John] So we've got
pictures of them building.
00:19:03.84\00:19:05.21
This is one of the first
classrooms that they have.
00:19:05.21\00:19:07.58
Look at the difference between
that and where they've been.
00:19:07.58\00:19:10.11
- [Natalie] Yeah.
00:19:10.11\00:19:11.21
- [John] To
build these buildings.
00:19:11.21\00:19:12.51
It's not just hired
construction workers when
00:19:12.51\00:19:16.25
the funds are really lacking
and they wanna move forward,
00:19:16.25\00:19:19.92
'cause this foundation was
sitting waiting to be built
00:19:19.92\00:19:23.32
for months and
months and months.
00:19:23.32\00:19:25.46
And so the kids got out there
00:19:25.46\00:19:28.20
and they started
doing what they could do.
00:19:28.20\00:19:30.03
Digging and
leveling and breaking
00:19:30.03\00:19:32.27
up rock and
putting that in there.
00:19:32.27\00:19:34.67
- [Natalie] Yeah.
00:19:34.67\00:19:35.97
- [John] And then when the
funds came, they bought cement.
00:19:35.97\00:19:37.81
Now the cement, the wood,
all these things they have
00:19:37.81\00:19:41.44
it has to be hauled
for like three hours up
00:19:41.44\00:19:44.08
really steep mountains
and down in steep ravines.
00:19:44.08\00:19:47.02
And so it's not an
easy task when we say, Hey
00:19:47.02\00:19:50.55
can you just pick up a
load of, a load of cement?
00:19:50.55\00:19:53.15
- It's not the little
cement truck that comes
00:19:53.15\00:19:54.92
out or the big cement truck?
00:19:54.92\00:19:56.93
- No.
00:19:56.93\00:19:57.93
They bring the sand
00:19:57.93\00:19:58.99
and they bring the
gravel and the cement.
00:19:58.99\00:20:01.56
- [Natalie] And, and
they, they mix it themselves.
00:20:01.56\00:20:02.66
- [John] And they
have a mixer there.
00:20:02.66\00:20:05.03
- [Natalie] Yeah. -
[John] But it's the kids.
00:20:05.03\00:20:05.90
- [Natalie] The mixer.
00:20:05.90\00:20:07.24
I love that it says
Jesus For Asia on the side.
00:20:07.24\00:20:08.87
- [John] Yeah.
00:20:08.87\00:20:10.17
- [Natalie] Cause he
bought it with donations.
00:20:10.17\00:20:11.87
- We've got a little
quick video that Pasang took
00:20:11.87\00:20:14.54
on his phone.
00:20:14.54\00:20:15.64
This is a shot of
the work on the ground.
00:20:15.64\00:20:17.65
This is taken from the
roof of the first floor.
00:20:17.65\00:20:20.32
You can just see they're
all actively busy together
00:20:20.32\00:20:22.88
and moving sand from one spot
00:20:22.88\00:20:24.55
to the next and
carrying buckets of stuff away.
00:20:24.55\00:20:27.36
And there he is making cement
00:20:27.36\00:20:28.69
and dumping the
cement out on the ground.
00:20:28.69\00:20:30.49
And then they'll
come with the buckets
00:20:30.49\00:20:32.06
and pick that up and carry
it to the top of the building.
00:20:32.06\00:20:34.96
And the next video we
have, Pasang is going down.
00:20:34.96\00:20:37.87
They've got a,
they built a bamboo ramp
00:20:37.87\00:20:39.57
up to the top of the
00:20:39.57\00:20:41.20
of the building because
they have to put the roof in.
00:20:41.20\00:20:44.04
- [Natalie] Mm.
00:20:44.04\00:20:45.27
- [John] Okay, the
roof for the first floor
00:20:45.27\00:20:46.51
which is the floor
for the second floor.
00:20:46.51\00:20:48.31
So this is how the
school's getting built.
00:20:48.31\00:20:50.65
- [Natalie] Awesome.
00:20:50.65\00:20:52.18
- [John] You can see all
those bamboo posts holding
00:20:52.18\00:20:53.72
up the frames to
pour the cement in.
00:20:53.72\00:20:56.99
- [Natalie] Okay.
00:20:56.99\00:20:58.25
- [John] Everything
is completely manual.
00:20:58.25\00:20:59.69
- [Natalie] You know,
00:20:59.69\00:21:00.86
the fact that it was
started by the elders
00:21:00.86\00:21:02.92
- Mm.
00:21:02.92\00:21:03.59
- [Natalie] You know,
00:21:03.59\00:21:04.69
they were significantly
younger 50 years ago.
00:21:04.69\00:21:07.30
- Yeah.
00:21:07.30\00:21:08.36
- [Natalie] When
they started this school.
00:21:08.36\00:21:08.90
- [John] Yeah.
00:21:08.90\00:21:10.03
- You know, and the one
man was saying, you know
00:21:10.03\00:21:11.57
at least 20 have died.
00:21:11.57\00:21:13.17
- [John] Yeah.
00:21:13.17\00:21:14.30
- It's just, it's
just like, oh man.
00:21:14.30\00:21:15.84
- [John] Yeah.
00:21:15.84\00:21:17.17
- You know, and they
never got to see the school
00:21:17.17\00:21:18.24
become what they
dreamed it could be.
00:21:18.24\00:21:20.31
- Right.
00:21:20.31\00:21:21.38
- [Natalie] And you
know, the fact that some
00:21:21.38\00:21:22.71
of the parents that live
right there send their kids
00:21:22.71\00:21:25.25
to other schools because
they have better opportunities.
00:21:25.25\00:21:27.75
- Mm-hmm.
00:21:27.75\00:21:28.58
It's really sad.
00:21:28.58\00:21:29.92
- But then the one young
man was saying he came here
00:21:29.92\00:21:32.32
because he heard
it was a good school,
00:21:32.32\00:21:33.89
he could get what he needed.
00:21:33.89\00:21:35.32
- Yeah.
00:21:35.32\00:21:36.69
- I think God is blessing,
in spite of the circumstances.
00:21:36.69\00:21:38.86
- [John] Right.
00:21:38.86\00:21:40.23
People know that this
school has better quality as far
00:21:40.23\00:21:42.60
as character development.
00:21:42.60\00:21:44.33
And so people do come
00:21:44.33\00:21:45.87
to the school for those
reasons, but it's limited.
00:21:45.87\00:21:48.90
They're turning away
kids. - [Natalie] Right.
00:21:48.90\00:21:50.34
- [John] That want to come to
00:21:50.34\00:21:51.31
the school and are not able to.
00:21:51.31\00:21:52.81
- [Natalie] Yeah.
00:21:52.81\00:21:54.11
- They don't have
enough classrooms,
00:21:54.11\00:21:55.31
they don't have
enough dormitory rooms,
00:21:55.31\00:21:57.01
they just don't
have enough facilities.
00:21:57.01\00:21:58.71
- They didn't
have a cafeteria room.
00:21:58.71\00:22:00.25
- Yeah.
00:22:00.25\00:22:01.05
- Now I wanted to explain,
00:22:01.05\00:22:02.45
because he didn't explain
it very much in the video,
00:22:02.45\00:22:04.59
- [John] Uh-huh.
00:22:04.59\00:22:05.72
- But in that area
it is extremely improper
00:22:05.72\00:22:07.99
for them to eat
sitting on the floor.
00:22:07.99\00:22:09.92
In many other areas,
00:22:09.92\00:22:11.29
that's not the it's
case. - That's perfectly fine.
00:22:11.29\00:22:12.79
- But in that area
it's extremely not right.
00:22:12.79\00:22:16.93
- [John] Yes.
00:22:16.93\00:22:18.07
- For them to be
sitting on the floor and eating.
00:22:18.07\00:22:19.13
- [John] Yes. - And this is one
00:22:19.13\00:22:20.24
of the reasons that
they have such urgency
00:22:20.24\00:22:22.40
that this school
needs to be better
00:22:22.40\00:22:24.01
and it needs to be better
now because these kids, you know
00:22:24.01\00:22:27.38
they're not being
treated properly by the school.
00:22:27.38\00:22:29.44
- [John] Yeah.
00:22:29.44\00:22:30.48
- According to the
beliefs of their parents
00:22:30.48\00:22:31.85
and grandparents.
00:22:31.85\00:22:32.68
- Correct.
00:22:32.68\00:22:33.78
And so when we add
these classrooms in
00:22:33.78\00:22:34.58
then that takes the weight off
00:22:34.58\00:22:37.05
of those rooms that
can then be converted
00:22:37.05\00:22:38.92
into a dining room and
00:22:38.92\00:22:41.39
and all the other
things that, that is needed.
00:22:41.39\00:22:43.49
Also, dormitory rooms
that, that more kids can come
00:22:43.49\00:22:46.73
and be a part of the school.
00:22:46.73\00:22:47.83
- [Natalie] Right.
00:22:47.83\00:22:48.83
They believe very strongly.
00:22:48.83\00:22:50.13
And they've seen that
if they have a good school
00:22:50.13\00:22:53.50
then the parents will pay.
00:22:53.50\00:22:54.94
- [John] Right.
00:22:54.94\00:22:56.44
- And then the teachers
will be able to be paid more.
00:22:56.44\00:22:57.34
- Right.
00:22:57.34\00:22:58.61
- So there's so
much heart there.
00:22:58.61\00:22:59.47
- [John] Yes.
00:22:59.47\00:23:00.64
- I mean, you see
that in all of them.
00:23:00.64\00:23:01.44
They're, they're sacrificing.
00:23:01.44\00:23:02.68
- [John] Oh yeah.
00:23:02.68\00:23:04.05
- You know, even from
the little that they do get
00:23:04.05\00:23:05.48
- [John] Uh-huh.
00:23:05.48\00:23:06.51
- They're
sacrificing to buy materials
00:23:06.51\00:23:08.55
for the kids to learn with.
00:23:08.55\00:23:09.88
- Materials like
books, pens, paper.
00:23:09.88\00:23:13.19
- [Natalie] Yeah.
00:23:13.19\00:23:14.26
- Those basic, you
know, textbooks and things
00:23:14.26\00:23:15.66
like that that they, you,
you just take for granted.
00:23:15.66\00:23:17.93
- You have to have for school.
00:23:17.93\00:23:18.73
- [John] You have to have, yeah.
00:23:18.73\00:23:19.79
Now he has a vision
for growing this school.
00:23:19.79\00:23:22.60
- Right.
00:23:22.60\00:23:23.97
- And also like a bus that
he can go and pick up kids.
00:23:23.97\00:23:26.30
Now these kids walk like
one to two, to three to four
00:23:26.30\00:23:29.27
or five kilometers away.
00:23:29.27\00:23:31.04
And when it's
raining they get there.
00:23:31.04\00:23:32.81
They're all
muddy and wet and cold.
00:23:32.81\00:23:34.71
- Right.
00:23:34.71\00:23:36.08
- They just recently did
an evangelistic series where
00:23:36.08\00:23:37.78
the whole school went
out about three hours drive
00:23:37.78\00:23:40.08
to another village.
00:23:40.08\00:23:41.52
- Oh, wonderful.
00:23:41.52\00:23:42.82
- And the town said,
please come back anytime.
00:23:42.82\00:23:44.69
We'd love to have you back.
00:23:44.69\00:23:45.72
- So beyond the
growth of the school,
00:23:45.72\00:23:48.26
beyond what the school
will be doing, you know
00:23:48.26\00:23:51.39
physically as far as facilities,
00:23:51.39\00:23:53.53
- Mm-hmm.
00:23:53.53\00:23:54.30
- The fact that it will be there
00:23:54.30\00:23:55.70
and it will be
raising young people
00:23:55.70\00:23:57.30
and teaching
them to do outreach.
00:23:57.30\00:23:59.10
- [John] Yes.
00:23:59.10\00:24:00.50
- And I think we're
gonna get some Bible workers
00:24:00.50\00:24:01.70
out of this.
00:24:01.70\00:24:02.37
- Oh, absolutely.
00:24:02.37\00:24:03.34
Some really good ones.
00:24:03.34\00:24:04.17
- Yeah.
00:24:04.17\00:24:05.27
We do have a few Bible
workers now in Manipur.
00:24:05.27\00:24:06.84
- [John] Yes.
00:24:06.84\00:24:07.68
Now what's unique
00:24:07.68\00:24:08.98
about this project is that
there's already something there.
00:24:08.98\00:24:11.28
- [Natalie] Right.
00:24:11.28\00:24:12.65
- There's a state right
next to Manipur called Tripura.
00:24:12.65\00:24:15.12
- Right.
00:24:15.12\00:24:15.92
- In which there is no school
00:24:15.92\00:24:18.05
- [Natalie] Mm.
00:24:18.05\00:24:19.45
- But there is a young
man just like Brother Pasang.
00:24:19.45\00:24:22.79
There's a young
man named Gabriel.
00:24:22.79\00:24:24.56
- Okay.
00:24:24.56\00:24:25.89
- We've been in connection
with him through a good friend
00:24:25.89\00:24:28.20
of yours that you
knew when you were a child.
00:24:28.20\00:24:30.67
- Yep.
00:24:30.67\00:24:31.50
- In Texas.
00:24:31.50\00:24:32.53
- One of my mom's good friends.
00:24:32.53\00:24:33.37
- [John] Yeah.
00:24:33.37\00:24:34.20
- In Nebraska.
00:24:34.20\00:24:35.57
- And so his dream is to
see a boarding academy set
00:24:35.57\00:24:38.37
up in his state.
00:24:38.37\00:24:39.71
- Wow.
00:24:39.71\00:24:40.51
- [John] It'll be the first one.
00:24:40.51\00:24:41.31
And there's such poverty there.
00:24:41.31\00:24:42.68
So much, so much ignorance,
you know, very low education.
00:24:42.68\00:24:47.55
And there's a lot of refugees
coming in from other states.
00:24:47.55\00:24:51.95
And so his desire, so
he's found land and he wants
00:24:51.95\00:24:56.12
he's ready to purchase the land
00:24:56.12\00:24:58.06
and it's just a
matter of, of starting it.
00:24:58.06\00:25:00.70
But there's nothing to show.
00:25:00.70\00:25:02.53
- Right.
00:25:02.53\00:25:03.83
- [John] You know, we
don't have anything to show
00:25:03.83\00:25:04.63
on video about this project.
00:25:04.63\00:25:06.53
It's just an idea.
00:25:06.53\00:25:07.74
- Right.
00:25:07.74\00:25:08.57
- Sight unseen.
00:25:08.57\00:25:09.37
It's like a step of faith.
00:25:09.37\00:25:10.54
- [Natalie] Yeah.
00:25:10.54\00:25:11.61
- You know, we've
been working with him
00:25:11.61\00:25:12.67
for over a year
trying to find the land.
00:25:12.67\00:25:14.71
They've got totally
different measurement of
00:25:14.71\00:25:16.61
of property size.
00:25:16.61\00:25:17.85
- [Natalie] Right.
00:25:17.85\00:25:18.68
- We have acres.
00:25:18.68\00:25:19.78
In other countries
they have hectares.
00:25:19.78\00:25:21.65
In, in Thailand
we've learned about the
00:25:21.65\00:25:24.55
- Rye.
00:25:24.55\00:25:25.39
- [John] The rye.
00:25:25.39\00:25:26.45
Yeah, in South
India they have scents
00:25:26.45\00:25:28.19
which is like a one
scent is 100th of one acre.
00:25:28.19\00:25:31.16
- Right.
00:25:31.16\00:25:32.26
- [John] And then
here they have a totally
00:25:32.26\00:25:33.40
different measurement
that we had to figure
00:25:33.40\00:25:34.03
out what that was.
00:25:34.03\00:25:35.40
- Right.
00:25:35.40\00:25:36.43
And you can't
remember the name of it.
00:25:36.43\00:25:36.83
- No.
00:25:36.83\00:25:38.43
So there's,
there's a lot of confusion
00:25:38.43\00:25:40.70
and takes time to
figure out what that is.
00:25:40.70\00:25:42.27
But they are ready to
move forward in, in, in
00:25:42.27\00:25:44.44
on a piece of land that's
gonna provide them a foothold
00:25:44.44\00:25:46.94
in that state and it's
gonna provide them the basis
00:25:46.94\00:25:50.65
of the work for the future.
00:25:50.65\00:25:52.45
- [Natalie] Right.
00:25:52.45\00:25:53.48
- You know,
schooling is so important.
00:25:53.48\00:25:55.42
- [Natalie] Right.
00:25:55.42\00:25:56.79
- In the establishment of,
of the church in new areas.
00:25:56.79\00:25:59.25
- And one great thing
with both of these young men
00:25:59.25\00:26:01.29
is they're working with
the conference leadership.
00:26:01.29\00:26:03.73
- Yes.
00:26:03.73\00:26:05.09
- We're sending funds through
the conference in that area
00:26:05.09\00:26:07.30
of the church.
00:26:07.30\00:26:08.60
And so it's really great
that they're working with them.
00:26:08.60\00:26:11.30
They're in this, in Tripura,
00:26:11.30\00:26:13.47
they're helping
him look for land.
00:26:13.47\00:26:15.20
- [John] Right.
00:26:15.20\00:26:16.47
- You know, giving
advice, looking for people
00:26:16.47\00:26:17.81
that can give good advice
for the area that they're in.
00:26:17.81\00:26:19.64
- [John] Correct. -
All these kinds of things.
00:26:19.64\00:26:21.51
And it's
wonderful. - [John] Yes.
00:26:21.51\00:26:22.88
- That these young men
are helping with the church.
00:26:22.88\00:26:26.92
- [John] Yes.
00:26:26.92\00:26:28.32
- You know, working together
so closely with the church.
00:26:28.32\00:26:28.85
- Absolutely.
00:26:28.85\00:26:30.09
And when we buy that
property, it'll be in the name
00:26:30.09\00:26:31.99
of the church.
00:26:31.99\00:26:32.82
- [Natalie] Right.
00:26:32.82\00:26:33.92
- It won't be in the
name of an individual.
00:26:33.92\00:26:34.99
- [Natalie] Right.
00:26:34.99\00:26:35.79
- It'll be held by the church.
00:26:35.79\00:26:37.16
So it's, it's something
that I think needs to be done.
00:26:37.16\00:26:39.96
- [Natalie] Right.
00:26:39.96\00:26:40.80
- Yeah.
00:26:40.80\00:26:42.16
For the gospels sake and for,
for the growth of the kingdom
00:26:42.16\00:26:43.87
and for the future.
00:26:43.87\00:26:45.63
You know, a lot of
people say, well why are
00:26:45.63\00:26:47.67
we building schools?
00:26:47.67\00:26:48.77
We're so close
to the end of time.
00:26:48.77\00:26:49.84
- But what if
that school reaches
00:26:49.84\00:26:52.11
one more before the end of time?
00:26:52.11\00:26:54.48
- Mm.
00:26:54.48\00:26:55.31
- Is it worth it?
00:26:55.31\00:26:56.14
- Yeah, for one soul.
00:26:56.14\00:26:57.51
- And Lord willing, there
will be a lot more than one.
00:26:57.51\00:26:59.11
- Yeah.
00:26:59.11\00:26:59.91
And the thing is that, you know
00:26:59.91\00:27:01.12
I believe Jesus
is coming very soon.
00:27:01.12\00:27:03.22
We don't have much time at all
00:27:03.22\00:27:04.85
but we don't know
what, when that is.
00:27:04.85\00:27:07.39
We honestly don't
know when that is.
00:27:07.39\00:27:09.46
And so we have to keep
building these schools,
00:27:09.46\00:27:12.36
building
churches, building, you know
00:27:12.36\00:27:14.60
sponsoring Bible workers
until we can't do it anymore.
00:27:14.60\00:27:18.30
- Right.
00:27:18.30\00:27:19.10
- And we can still do it.
00:27:19.10\00:27:20.30
- [Natalie] Right.
00:27:20.30\00:27:21.14
- So let's do it now.
00:27:21.14\00:27:22.24
And you know, even
if it's a couple years,
00:27:22.24\00:27:24.21
there's gonna be some baptisms,
00:27:24.21\00:27:25.54
there's gonna be some
hearts turned to Christ.
00:27:25.54\00:27:27.58
There's gonna be some
00:27:27.58\00:27:28.91
some kids that know about
Jesus that didn't know before.
00:27:28.91\00:27:31.65
- Right.
00:27:31.65\00:27:32.48
- And that's worth it.
00:27:32.48\00:27:33.58
- The witness and
the testimony, yeah.
00:27:33.58\00:27:34.78
- Yes.
00:27:34.78\00:27:35.62
Absolutely.
00:27:35.62\00:27:36.45
So that's exciting.
00:27:36.45\00:27:37.42
- Yep.
00:27:37.42\00:27:38.22
- Yeah, so pray for Tripura.
00:27:38.22\00:27:39.65
- Yeah.
00:27:39.65\00:27:40.49
And Manipur.
00:27:40.49\00:27:41.32
- And Manipur.
