00:12 Missions is the absolute adventure.
00:16 So the word is adventures. 00:38 Welcome to another youth in mission's program. 00:40 I'm standing here outside of Laymen ministries 00:42 of new mission headquarters in the town of Mamburao 00:45 and the island of Mindoro 00:47 in the Northern part of Philippines. 00:49 In this program we're gonna be interviewing young people 00:51 who have been coming over with the Laymen Ministries 00:53 youth in mission's program. 00:55 A lot of these young people 00:56 or most all of these young people 00:58 go out into the far western side of the island of Mindoro 01:01 and are working in the villages teaching school. 01:04 Of course one of the reasons 01:05 we're putting this video together 01:06 is 'cause we are hoping that may be 01:07 you might want to get interested in missions 01:09 and like to come over 01:10 and participate in a project like this 01:13 or may be some other project with some other organization 01:15 but, it's been just a tremendous blessing 01:17 to see how these young people interact with the native people 01:21 in this remote part of this island 01:23 and the results of their interaction 01:25 upon the young people 01:26 and when they get done with the mission service 01:29 the excitement that they have and how they-- 01:31 most of them want to stay here 01:33 or come back next year in fact 01:34 some of the young people this year 01:35 are actually coming back next year 01:37 and teach a second year. 01:39 One of the questions that we asked 01:40 some of the young people is, 01:41 why did you want to come here in the first place 01:43 and teach in a remote jungle village 01:44 with Laymen Ministries, 01:45 their answers were very interesting. 01:49 My name is Joel Marshall and I'm 26 01:54 and I live in the Gold coast in Australia. 01:57 Hi, my name is Trina. 01:58 I am student missionary here in Pinagbayanan, 02:03 I'm 19 years old 02:05 physical therapy major at college 02:07 and I just took a year off 02:09 to do something little bit different 02:10 and I'm enjoying it. 02:12 I really did not have a clue of where I wanted to work 02:15 and the website just said 02:17 where do you want to work in the world 02:19 and I just put down some random country 02:22 and got a email back saying we don't work in that country. 02:26 Okay, my name is Kelsey Nelson and I'm from California. 02:31 I work as a teacher of missionary in Pinagbayanan. 02:35 They recommended the Philippines, 02:38 and I was happy to come here. 02:40 I have known about Laymen Ministries 02:42 for quite a long time 02:44 but I never even imagined coming here and working. 02:48 My name is Leroy Abrahams. 02:51 I'm from Atlanta, Georgia. 02:53 I'm 18 years old. 02:55 I work in the village of Agbalite. 02:58 Honestly when I came, I had -- some one had told me oh, 03:01 you'll probably be living in like a hut house 03:03 made out of native material dirt floor. 03:05 And so when I came to the village I'm like wow, 03:07 they had like flowers here and like on the walk way 03:10 as like decorated kind of 03:11 and like I came to the house and like whoa, seen a floor. 03:14 So, I was kind of like in reverse like okay, 03:16 it's better than I thought. 03:17 So really wasn't that bad for me. 03:19 And there is -- I mean there is little things 03:21 like you get used to kind of washing your clothes by hand 03:23 and oh, man this stain is really bad, you know, 03:25 like is it really worth it sometimes like okay, okay, 03:29 I will step some more I will step some more. 03:30 But it's really like after a month or so 03:33 you are kind get used to, it's just normal like, 03:35 every one else is that way and if they can do it you can. 03:39 I had gone to the general youth conference 03:41 in Baltimore, Maryland 03:42 and picked up a DVD by Laymen Ministries 03:45 and watched it several times 03:47 but it never really sunk in to me 03:49 that I could do that. 03:51 But I pulled it out again I watched it with my family 03:54 and my mom said oh, so your friend's going 03:57 and I said yeah she is deciding to send in her application. 04:01 And my mom kind of said well, would you like to go 04:06 and I said well, yeah, 04:08 I think that will be really neat. 04:10 So I'm schooling the last six months 04:12 between January of '07 and May finish up my high school years 04:17 and I was thinking about 04:19 getting involved with some kind of mission. 04:22 So at first I was thinking of extreme mission 04:24 but on Hope channel 04:27 Laymen Ministries has a little show 04:29 that kind of discusses some of the activities taking place 04:32 here in the Philippines. 04:34 So my mother convinced me to just send an application 04:38 to be a teacher here. 04:41 So I sent my application and a little bit later 04:44 I was wondering what became of it 04:46 because I did not see or hear of any reply. 04:50 So, I called Jeff and he said oh, Leroy, 04:53 we kind of put your application on the back burner 04:56 because you said you wanted to go like 04:58 six months from now, like next January. 05:02 He said, but if you want to 05:04 we're sending out a group of Missionaries 05:06 in a few days in a few weeks 05:08 because at the time it was like almost May 05:11 around the time when the first missionaries 05:13 were about to come to the villages. 05:16 So I said oh, that's interesting 05:18 but well, may be I wont be able to come in by mid May 05:21 but I would like to come may be in June sometime. 05:24 He said okay, well, we're also considering 05:26 two other student missionaries as well. 05:29 So, I got online and printed out an application 05:32 and sent it in right about the same time as my friend did 05:35 and we were both in between high school and college 05:39 trying to decide what we are going to do next 05:40 and we waited and we talked 05:43 and pretty soon we heard back from Laymen ministries 05:47 and the process started from there. 05:49 First time that I found out about Laymen Ministries 05:52 was through satellite TV, watching 3ABN 05:57 and I just saw, Jeff in the interviews 06:04 that he was doing and just the ministry 06:08 and when I started to get interested 06:11 in doing missionary work 06:15 when they popped into my mind this is an organization 06:18 that I could contact 06:20 and so I looked on the website 06:25 and just applied and that's basically 06:28 how I came to be here. 06:29 I heard about Laymen Ministries from my school 06:32 and the missions department. 06:34 I just stepped out there and I was like okay, 06:36 what is there to do I want to do something different 06:38 and I want to learn about different culture. 06:40 I want to -- I want to go see what God can do with me. 06:44 I want to be more useful, I want to go to somewhere 06:46 where Christianity isn't all that prevalent, 06:49 just to see what it's like. 06:52 In America so easy to get focused on a Christian world 06:55 and converting may be to Adventism, 06:58 to Baptist, to this to that. 07:00 But here it's different like, 07:03 there are these people with superstitious beliefs 07:05 and different backgrounds that is totally different. 07:09 I wanted to see what it's like 07:10 and it makes God more real to me 07:13 to be here and explain to kind of, 07:15 some of these kids for the first time 07:16 some of the Bible stories that they just never heard before. 07:19 And when it becomes more real to them 07:21 it becomes more real to me too. 07:23 And it's just -- 07:24 it's a unforgettable experience being here, I really enjoy it. 07:27 Being here on the Philippines 07:29 really helps you break out of your shell. 07:33 Helps you do things that you would never imagine 07:36 that you would do. 07:38 When I first came to the village and we got off the boat. 07:42 There was a lot of students -- 07:44 not over the real lot of students 07:45 but there is some students there to meet us 07:47 and some of the teachers. 07:50 And I remember being introduced to people 07:53 and I told my-- 07:54 I was told my roommate was going to be Venus 07:57 and I had no idea really what she look like or anything 08:00 and as I was shaking people's hands 08:02 I met a girl name, Venus 08:04 and for some reason the first thought that came to my mind is, 08:07 this is one of my students 08:09 because she just looked like a student to me 08:12 and then I got introduced to some of the other people 08:14 and then it hit me. 08:16 That was my roommate's name. 08:17 So I went back and I said, hi my name is Kelsey 08:20 and said oh, it's good to meet you 08:22 we walked back to our house and. 08:24 Well, this is my hut, not really a hut 08:27 but this is my hut. 08:28 This is my room here in the front 08:30 it wasn't supposed to be room, 08:31 it was supposed to be a classroom 08:33 but since my roommate and I moved in we said, 08:36 why can't myself in one room so, this is my room here 08:39 and this is down the hall my roommates room. 08:50 This is my small kitchen, um usually we use gas stove 08:54 but we are out right now so we cook outside on charcoal 08:57 and this is our CR which is almost as big as our bedroom 09:01 which is nice. 09:02 You have to collect your own water 09:04 but we have a house and we just fill it up. 09:06 So what's this whole mess right here? 09:08 This is our electricity, this is our solar, 09:11 our battery, our lives, every thing all the wires 09:15 and it's pretty good right now. 09:30 Well, this is what we call the dirty kitchen 09:32 which is burning up a little bit. 09:34 So I make my rice and stuff sometime. 09:37 Have you eaten much burnt rice? 09:38 Yeah, sometimes I forget, 09:40 I almost burnt my rice this morning. 09:42 I just came just in time the edges just got burnt but -- 09:46 What's the sound on your roof? 09:49 Monkey, yeah. 09:50 What? Yeah, pet monkey. 09:53 Yeah, been careful to let him go, 09:55 it will raid my house. 09:57 You get the monkey getting in your house? 09:59 Yeah, he tears up everything. 10:04 Actually, pretty clean place. 10:06 Yeah, we try to - try to keep it clean. 10:08 What do you actually cook in here, 10:09 you have like a propane cooker. 10:11 Yeah, this circle no I mean yeah propane. 10:15 They call it gas here right? 10:17 What's this here? 10:19 Some garlic and onions. 10:21 It's part of our main seasonings. 10:24 You eat a lot of garlic? 10:27 Yeah, not really, sometimes I order too much, 10:30 I think I did this time. 10:33 I rid off the onions quicker than the -- 10:34 What do you mean you order garlic, 10:36 I mean you have like a delivery system here, 10:39 somebody gets order whenever you want? 10:40 Not really, because we order what's available in Mamburao. 10:44 We have to text our order by cell phone 10:46 and once the boat arrives 10:49 we have to carry out supplies to shore, 10:52 take them to our huts or well into what ever. 10:57 The air mattress. 10:59 looks like same we set here. 11:02 And if you have problems of mosquitoes here? 11:05 Um, sometimes if it's raining 11:07 then mosquitoes are pretty bad. 11:10 But now it's not so bad. 11:13 There were times I've woken up 11:15 with a bunch of bumps and stuff on the face. 11:18 How about the-- if you have those? 11:20 Yeah those are pretty bad also they are especially bad 11:23 just after rains they get really sick 11:26 they are so small but they leave, 11:28 they really pack a punch. 11:30 And do you like the rest of the teachers here. 11:32 You have your room actually built right on to the classroom 11:37 so your classroom is right up the door of your house. 11:39 Yeah, it's just attached, so -- 11:40 That's convenient, in the morning 11:41 if you're really tired you can stumble out in the class. 11:44 Oh, no may be once if I'm sick, 11:47 they try to get ready before hand. 11:49 Every morning I notice too that you are doing like 11:51 worship together as a group here. 11:53 How long have you been doing that here in the village? 11:55 Oh, well we've been doing this since I have come here, 11:57 yeah. Good. 11:58 It's really nice it really promotes 12:00 unity in--teachers. 12:02 Okay, well we are going to get down to the hut 12:04 pretty dirty here, show me your bathroom. 12:06 Explain to me little bit about your CR, 12:10 what they call it comfort room. 12:11 Yeah, this is the CR, it's very simple. 12:16 This is bathroom where you relieve yourself, 12:18 at the same time take a bath. 12:19 How do you take a bath here? 12:21 This is a stumper. 12:22 I don't see a shower head. 12:23 Oh no, no shower head. 12:26 we will use this like this, 12:29 this cold water, stump on your head. 12:31 The first time you did that was it like -- 12:33 what kind of experience? 12:34 It was very miserable. I was very hesitant. 12:38 Yeah, was very difficult for me 12:40 but I just got used to it. 12:41 It starts your day out now right? 12:43 Like shocks you into wakes situation. 12:47 Yeah, it's kind of chilling experience 12:49 but yeah, I kind of like it now since it's pretty hot outside, 12:52 It's nice to get some cool water 12:54 but before, especially if it's really raining 12:57 sometimes it gets a little cool 12:59 and then plus to take a bath like this 13:01 it's really, it's really rough. 13:08 Every year when young people come here 13:10 they always have some kind of really funny 13:14 and interesting thing that happens to them. 13:16 Such as what happen in this situation. 13:18 So I remember when I first came 13:19 I used to be really afraid of snakes 13:22 and my house had plenty of them 13:25 had more snakes, had so many. 13:29 They started out may be really small 13:31 then they ranged anywhere from like 13:33 one foot to three feet or so. 13:35 There is one instance where I was using the CR, 13:39 the toilet is pretty low and so as I was sitting down, 13:43 I looked up I saw there is a snake 13:45 coming through the cogon roof. 13:48 I was like, oh no it was quite a large to see it, 13:51 oh no a snake. 13:53 So, so I ran out 13:56 and I called once again my friendly neighbor, 14:00 so afraid to come over 14:01 and he insisted that we use a stick to get the snake 14:05 but by that time we got the stick 14:07 the snake went through the house. 14:08 My mam and mom they haven't quite perfected yet. 14:12 We're working with it. 14:13 There's a few students who do say, 14:14 mam but the others laugh at them 14:16 because they are so used to mom, mom, mom. 14:19 They've been saying it forever even other coworkers, 14:21 all the time the same mom, instead of mam. 14:25 But, until they get used to it, 14:27 some of them once they hear it like - 14:29 once they know that they should be saying mam, 14:31 then like, oh they are so funny and sometime its really weird, 14:35 because they will be like mom, mom, mom, me, me, 14:37 mom, me, mom, me and pretty soon it sounds like mommy, 14:40 I am like no, no, no don't call me mommy 14:42 like mam is enough, but yeah. 14:45 Some of the other things that stand out are 14:47 when I try and do things that they do 14:49 like go to the village and pound rice 14:52 and I start pounding rice and one of the fathers 14:56 will come over and say oh, you are kinder student. 15:00 Your pounding is like kinder and the kids laugh 15:03 and yeah, I've never pounded rice before 15:06 but just to let them see me experiment new things 15:11 and that I don't do so well the first time either. 15:14 It's just fun to be with them 15:16 and experience things they do every day. 15:18 With most of the young people that have come here 15:20 we have seen that being involved with mission service 15:22 has been a tremendous boost for them spiritually. 15:25 We asked some of the young student missionaries, 15:27 you know, how did they see God working in their life 15:29 to some of the experience 15:31 that they had teaching the school year. 15:33 Trusted in God that's the only thing. 15:36 It's mainly just trust in God, 15:38 God becomes reality in here. 15:40 That's, that's the major thing 15:42 you can learn from this experience 15:45 that you may not feel like you have the capability, 15:48 you may not feel like you have the strength, 15:49 but once you come out here, once you meet the kids, 15:52 once you look into their eyes just seems like 15:55 the ideas just come that God just works with you. 15:58 It's really, it's really matured me 16:00 in ways that's really kind of difficult to express. 16:05 I think it's driven me more to depend on God, 16:07 like before God's there, now you have to have God 16:12 like you're always doing things 16:14 that you don't really expect to be doing, 16:17 oh by the way you are giving a Sermon today, 16:19 like it's okay, like you can do it. 16:22 If you're having like a personal relationship with God 16:25 you can just share with others in a plain simple way like, 16:28 this is what God's doing it doesn't have to be like, 16:31 okay here is my three points and his report 16:34 and yeah, this is a doctrinal approach 16:38 and it's all about being a friend with the students 16:42 with God with people around you 16:45 and I don't know 16:48 that's what made the difference for me. 17:09 The kids were just very forgiving and very loving. 17:12 I was so surprised, hugs everyday. 17:15 And I taught them for two months 17:18 and we had a rotation of teachers 17:20 and I got switched to another grade, 17:25 second grade 17:26 and definitely it was a lot of different 17:29 than teaching the kinder, 17:30 the kinder were just learning to read 17:32 verses the second graders, 17:34 you know, they already can read 17:35 and it's pretty easy to talk to them in English. 17:39 I like you to meet some of my friends here 17:41 this is, Recelle she is kinder two student 17:47 and she is a very good friend to me. 17:50 She always gives me hugs and yeah, it's very special. 17:55 That's somebody we got there. 17:57 Another one this is Recelle 17:59 and she is also a kinder student. 18:03 When you say kinder student what do you mean exactly? 18:06 It means that they -- 18:08 Like first grade? 18:09 They are not doing any periodical testing 18:11 or anything like that 18:12 it's just sort of more informal teaching, yeah, more -- 18:17 It's like a kindergarten or like pre first grade 18:20 or is it actually first grade. 18:22 It's not first grade. 18:23 It's like kindergarten and that call them a kinder. 18:26 Yeah. 18:27 Okay, any other girls you want to introduce. 18:29 Yeah, we'll get there Margi, over here Margi 18:34 and this one is Jian. 18:36 And they are all kinder. 18:40 They get me in my morning-- morning love and affection. 18:47 Yeah. 19:06 Some of them are studying to do periodical tests 19:10 and the others just continuing on 19:13 doing their normal study here. 19:17 So which one's here are getting ready 19:18 for taking their tests. 19:20 Two students, we have Barnie, 19:23 he is grade three and Jamel grade four. 19:27 And then the other students, they just continue on with their 19:30 regular curriculum. 19:31 Yes, and one student is finished 19:36 so, he is my assistant teacher. 19:43 You tell me is it positive, comparative or supportive, 19:50 Biggest? 19:54 Comparative. 19:59 Cleaner? 20:02 Positive. 20:04 Yes. 20:09 More beautiful? 20:12 Supportive. 20:13 Comparative. 20:14 Right now we are here in Idaho, at the -- 20:16 our house at the property of Laymen Ministries 20:19 and this week we have been holding 20:21 a youth in missions boot camp, 20:23 we have group of young people here 20:24 that are getting training 'cause this next Sunday 20:26 they are hopping on an airplane 20:27 and they're going for little over ten months 20:29 to the Philippines. 20:30 So we've been teaching them about everything 20:32 from how to purchase their supplies 20:34 about cross culture ministry interfacing 20:36 with Tagalog and Katutubo people. 20:39 Then native and the majority people over there, 20:42 about how to wash clothes in a tub, how to prepare food. 20:45 Basically preparing them to be able to step into 20:49 that environment and not have so much culture shock 20:51 like what we have seen happen in the past 20:53 we have also Kelsey and Jenessa here. 20:56 Kelsey was over there last year and Jenessa was there last year, 20:59 so they are helping share some of their things, 21:01 you know, how to work in the classroom and such. 21:02 My daughter's leading out, 21:04 she has been over there for three and half years. 21:05 My wife is helping leading out 21:06 and I am teaching some of the classes here. 21:09 We knew some of the young people 21:10 at the boot camp here at Laymen Ministries 21:12 and I would like to have them introduce themselves. 21:15 So, you could know who they are 21:17 and Robert, why don't you start. 21:19 Hi, I am Robert, I'm 19 years old 21:21 from Berrien Springs, Michigan.

Julia first. 21:59 What have you learnt so far here 22:00 from you've been at boot camp? 22:01 Here at the Laymen Ministries boot camp 22:03 we've learned a lot about the food 22:05 we'll be eating how to prepare those foods 22:07 and some of the difficulties 22:09 that we'll face while we are there. 22:11 Are you -- do you have any apprehensions about going there, 22:13 I mean are you are you -- 22:14 Not a one, it will be great. 22:16 Are you serious? 22:17 No, I'm scared. 22:21 This is like virtual television you know it's like 22:23 we are gonna get these young people here 22:26 before they go they are going through this training 22:27 and they're getting all geared up to go 22:29 and they are not afraid to go as she was just saying 22:31 but we are gonna go to Philippines, 22:32 that few months we are gonna video tape them 22:34 while they are over there. 22:35 We're gonna see if the story changes 22:36 or if it really turn out to be successful 22:39 and then when they comeback we will get some more 22:41 video footages to share with you about their experience 22:43 so, Robert what have you learnt so far at boot camp? 22:46 Well, I have learnt more about spirituality 22:48 how to keep, you know, a connection with the Lord 22:51 because in the Philippines, 22:52 it's gonna be kind of crazy there 22:53 and everyone is distracted and everything like that, 22:55 but as long as we keep connect with God, 22:56 things work out. 22:57 And are you afraid of like the snakes or the bugs 23:00 or any of that kind of stuff that we've talked about or? 23:03 Not at all really, I'm looking for it to, 23:05 you know, chopping some of them up yeah, 23:08 I was scared of them but, you know, yeah, no. 23:11 How about you Lindsay what have you learnt so far 23:13 while you've been here? 23:14 Well, we have learned 23:16 about the different cultural differences 23:18 and just different cultures 23:20 and how the Philippinos are and the way they say yes and no 23:23 and how we should just approach them 23:25 and not being so forward anymore and just respect their-- 23:29 the way they do things 23:30 instead of just coming right out and hi, you know. 23:34 Are you - do you have any apprehensions? 23:36 Yeah, I have a couple of apprehensions 23:39 about my cooking abilities not so much on that level. 23:44 Jennessa, what have you learnt so far here at boot camp? 23:48 What kind of things that they've been impressed on your mind? 23:51 You have been to the Philippines before 23:52 so, I mean, you know, 23:53 this is kind of like second return 23:54 like around for you? 23:57 Yeah, I think mainly cultural things 23:59 that I didn't know about like, 24:01 is that about sitting down with them--in 24:03 not saying anything. 24:06 What do you mean sitting down with them 24:07 and not saying anything? 24:08 I mean, you're there to be a missionary 24:10 you just go down set with these people ask same thing? 24:13 Well, that's part of their culture, I guess. 24:16 You explain it better than me though. 24:18 To bond with them. 24:19 Yeah, just-so they feel like you trust them. 24:22 I'm learning how much fun it is to watch young people 24:25 get excited about going there. 24:27 I mean, there weren't cameras around 24:28 when I was getting ready to go 24:30 and I can tell you I was really excited. 24:31 But seeing these people and they are like, 24:34 wow and we're doing that and I am like, yes you are. 24:37 A lot of fun for me and I'm enjoying 24:40 the joy that these kids have. 24:43 Really important to understand 24:44 that Julia just stepped on an ant, 24:45 she was freaked 24:46 and she is going to the Philippines. 24:47 There it is. The dead ant. 24:52 How about you two you kind of already been on your own right 24:55 so, this is not going to be that big of a thing, 24:57 like being separated from family and stuff as much. 25:00 No, it will be difficult because there is not 25:03 another American person 25:05 to kind of relate with and talk to, so you-- 25:07 This is in your village ship it's for - 25:08 Not in my village, yeah, I mean it's good to have 25:11 companionship here and meet the people 25:12 you will be working with. 25:14 But certainly it's going to be difficult 25:16 it's not like just living on your own 25:17 it's going around the world, in another country. 25:21 So it will be difficult. How about of you? 25:25 Um, I think it will be a time of adjustment 25:28 and I think once I get pass that 25:29 oh, I have all these kids and it's so hot out 25:33 and it's raining and so I think once I get into it 25:36 I will start enjoying it a lot more 25:37 and I wont want to come back. 25:40 Well, the truth is we will find out that everything 25:43 that they said will come to pass or not 25:45 or whether it's true or not true, 25:47 that's part of reality television. 25:49 My time here has been life changing. 25:52 This is the last day I guess 25:53 its all over closing ceremony has finished. 25:58 We've had our last time at the river 26:00 so, it's about time to go I guess 26:04 I have mixed feelings about it, 26:06 one hand I am excited to go home and stuff 26:08 since I've been to the states nine almost ten months now. 26:14 On the other hand I'm really sad because you know 26:16 that I really miss my co-workers, 26:19 I really miss my students 26:21 and I will really miss all the things 26:23 I've gotten to do here. 26:29 A few days ago I found out that one of my students 26:34 had newly born sister yeah, new brother actually 26:40 and the parents decided to name him Anthony. 26:45 Bye, bye-- 26:47 Bye.
