Dear Lord, we thank you so much
00:01:01.24\00:01:03.89
for the wonderful
opportunity you've given us
00:01:03.90\00:01:06.02
to be here to worship together.
00:01:06.03\00:01:09.45
And we pray
that you will give us
00:01:09.46\00:01:11.88
the blessings that
we've come to seek.
00:01:11.89\00:01:13.80
That we would be
motivated and encouraged.
00:01:13.81\00:01:18.13
Lord, may your
Holy Spirit speak to us,
00:01:18.14\00:01:20.41
may your angels be next to us.
00:01:20.42\00:01:22.84
And we thank you,
00:01:22.85\00:01:24.24
may you be with
those who will speak
00:01:24.25\00:01:26.32
that they can have
words from on high.
00:01:26.33\00:01:28.08
In Jesus name, Amen.
00:01:28.09\00:01:30.88
Please be seated.
00:01:30.89\00:01:31.86
Good morning, ASI.
00:01:44.57\00:01:45.82
How is everybody this morning?
00:01:45.83\00:01:48.01
We're gonna have some fun now,
00:01:48.02\00:01:49.48
I've the Alvarez family.
00:01:49.49\00:01:50.84
If you can come right here
00:01:50.85\00:01:51.93
and the two young people
you can stand right here.
00:01:51.94\00:01:54.86
And you two there
we'll get started here.
00:01:54.87\00:01:57.35
The Alvarez family
is from Harlingen, Texas
00:01:57.36\00:02:01.01
which is near the south.
00:02:01.02\00:02:02.68
You can come a
little bit closer.
00:02:02.69\00:02:04.95
And we have Albert,
00:02:04.96\00:02:07.10
Alicia, Alexa age 10,
00:02:07.11\00:02:11.06
Christian age 8,
and Alison age 3.
00:02:11.07\00:02:16.21
Now we're very interested
00:02:16.22\00:02:17.86
in sharing with you
some inspiring opportunities
00:02:17.87\00:02:21.91
and efforts
that people have made
00:02:21.92\00:02:24.70
in literature evangelism work.
00:02:24.71\00:02:27.07
This is very inspiring.
00:02:27.08\00:02:28.72
And I just want
to ask you Alicia,
00:02:28.73\00:02:31.54
what inspired
you to get involved
00:02:31.55\00:02:34.08
in literature evangelism?
00:02:34.09\00:02:36.41
Well, as a home
schooling mother,
00:02:36.42\00:02:38.78
I felt that my
job is my children.
00:02:38.79\00:02:42.44
But one morning in my devotions
00:02:42.45\00:02:44.35
I read from Sister White,
00:02:44.36\00:02:46.40
where she said that
just being a mother at home
00:02:46.41\00:02:48.78
is not really enough.
00:02:48.79\00:02:49.89
You should take your children
00:02:49.90\00:02:51.59
and share the Lord with
your neighbors and your friends.
00:02:51.60\00:02:55.52
And you had a goal
and you started doing this
00:02:55.53\00:02:58.67
and you started
just a few of you,
00:02:58.68\00:03:01.16
your older children going
00:03:01.17\00:03:03.01
and selling books
and what happened?
00:03:03.02\00:03:05.98
Well, we set a
goal to actually help us
00:03:05.99\00:03:11.27
to be more motivated
00:03:11.28\00:03:12.90
and of course our
main motivation is
00:03:12.91\00:03:15.58
sharing the Lord
with those around us.
00:03:15.59\00:03:17.85
However we said,
we're gonna set a goal
00:03:17.86\00:03:19.68
to make funds to
help us go to ASI,
00:03:19.69\00:03:23.52
and our goal was to make 1400.
00:03:23.53\00:03:26.76
Did you reach
that goal? Yes, we did.
00:03:26.77\00:03:28.34
And they are here today.
00:03:28.35\00:03:29.32
I have...can you
say, amen to them.
00:03:29.33\00:03:32.12
I was talking with
Alicia yesterday about 3 O'clock
00:03:32.13\00:03:35.87
and they were in El Paso, Texas.
00:03:35.88\00:03:38.36
They came from Harlingen,
00:03:38.37\00:03:40.42
which is near the
southern tip of Texas
00:03:40.43\00:03:42.58
and just got
here late last night
00:03:42.59\00:03:44.53
and so I met them
literally three minutes ago.
00:03:44.54\00:03:48.35
So what titles
do you like to share
00:03:48.36\00:03:51.62
when you're out there?
00:03:51.63\00:03:53.49
The main ones are
the "Great Controversy"
00:03:53.50\00:03:55.64
and "The Desire of Ages"
00:03:55.65\00:03:57.18
and we've two
different children's books
00:03:57.19\00:04:01.48
"My Friend Jesus"
and "Secret Keys."
00:04:01.49\00:04:04.97
And also we like to
share something about health
00:04:04.98\00:04:07.74
which is "Foods that Heal,"
00:04:07.75\00:04:09.86
and those are main
books, our main sellers.
00:04:09.87\00:04:13.04
And you've to
drag the kids out there
00:04:13.05\00:04:15.57
to do this each day?
00:04:15.58\00:04:18.35
No, actually they sometimes
drag me out to go selling.
00:04:18.36\00:04:21.39
Okay well we wanna
hear from the young people
00:04:21.40\00:04:24.60
just exactly their experiences.
00:04:24.61\00:04:27.69
Alexa, tell us
anything that may have happened
00:04:27.70\00:04:31.47
while you're out
there selling books?
00:04:31.48\00:04:34.65
When we were selling
books then...like what, kind of?
00:04:34.66\00:04:40.10
Did you have any experiences,
00:04:40.11\00:04:42.44
people saying something to
you at the door or problems?
00:04:42.45\00:04:45.13
Oh yeah, because there
is one lady that told us
00:04:45.14\00:04:49.24
that her husband was out of town
00:04:49.25\00:04:50.86
and she was
actually lying to us.
00:04:50.87\00:04:54.41
And so what happened?
00:04:54.42\00:04:56.01
Her daughter came up and said,
00:04:56.02\00:04:57.18
daddy is not out of town.
00:04:57.19\00:04:59.74
And so what happened?
00:04:59.75\00:05:02.34
She ended up buying two books.
00:05:02.35\00:05:06.87
Nothing like guilt
to motivate a buyer.
00:05:06.88\00:05:10.25
And Christian, have
you had any experiences
00:05:10.26\00:05:13.64
in selling books that
you wanna share with us?
00:05:13.65\00:05:16.40
Yeah, one house we
went to, there's this man,
00:05:16.41\00:05:21.01
he was a smoker.
00:05:21.02\00:05:23.40
He said he loved to read
00:05:23.41\00:05:26.56
and he brought the biggest book
00:05:26.57\00:05:28.40
that we had is the
"Great Controversy,"
00:05:28.41\00:05:30.78
and on the way back to our car
00:05:30.79\00:05:32.73
at the end of the day
00:05:32.74\00:05:34.46
we saw him taking a smoke break,
00:05:34.47\00:05:36.35
but reading the
"Great Controversy."
00:05:36.36\00:05:38.60
He was reading Great
Controversy while smoking.
00:05:38.61\00:05:41.38
Well that's a step
in the right direction.
00:05:41.39\00:05:43.23
And what happens when you,
00:05:43.24\00:05:45.45
when somebody says, no thanks
00:05:45.46\00:05:47.20
or they slam the
door, what do you do?
00:05:47.21\00:05:49.58
We just prayed for them. Amen.
00:05:49.59\00:05:53.20
Can you say amen to that? Amen.
00:05:53.21\00:05:54.77
And the whole family
is involved with this.
00:05:54.78\00:05:56.53
Actually, Albert is
working full time as a teacher
00:05:56.54\00:06:01.72
and then moonlights
doing computer repairs
00:06:01.73\00:06:04.33
but even Alison is
involved in selling books.
00:06:04.34\00:06:08.17
Do you like to sell books?
00:06:08.18\00:06:10.35
Tell us how you sell books?
00:06:10.36\00:06:11.83
What do you say?
00:06:11.84\00:06:12.84
We raising funds to get
to go convention at ASI.
00:06:12.85\00:06:21.06
You sold some
books to come to ASI?
00:06:21.07\00:06:23.67
And what do you say,
here is what, what's this?
00:06:23.68\00:06:26.45
What do you say to them?
00:06:26.46\00:06:28.13
Here is the "Great Controversy."
00:06:28.14\00:06:31.82
Here is the "Great Controversy."
00:06:31.83\00:06:34.21
And this looks
likes a wonderful book.
00:06:34.22\00:06:37.72
It's a thick book,
00:06:37.73\00:06:39.05
it's got some
great pictures in tit
00:06:39.06\00:06:41.51
and great quotes
from the word of God
00:06:41.52\00:06:44.43
and just some
wonderful things here.
00:06:44.44\00:06:47.38
Now, Alison, can I
buy this book from you?
00:06:47.39\00:06:52.70
Okay. Okay.
00:06:52.71\00:06:54.59
Let's see what we
can come up with here.
00:06:54.60\00:06:56.99
What's that? $10.
00:06:57.00\00:07:02.49
Well, let's see here.
00:07:02.50\00:07:07.36
Would $60 work? Yes.
00:07:07.37\00:07:10.80
What do you say?
00:07:10.81\00:07:12.02
Say Amen, thank you.
00:07:12.03\00:07:13.48
Amen. Amen.
00:07:13.49\00:07:18.98
I don't think I've enough
for the valet later today,
00:07:18.99\00:07:21.09
so I might need
a ride to the bank.
00:07:21.10\00:07:23.90
But you're just
an inspiration to us
00:07:23.91\00:07:27.36
and we just want
to thank you so much
00:07:27.37\00:07:30.46
for how you respond to people
00:07:30.47\00:07:32.65
who might be rude to
you and you pray for them
00:07:32.66\00:07:36.02
and after you've come
home, it doesn't stop there.
00:07:36.03\00:07:41.39
No, actually we
continue praying for those
00:07:41.40\00:07:44.39
that we sold that day,
00:07:44.40\00:07:45.58
that the Lord
will move their hearts
00:07:45.59\00:07:47.79
and they will be in
heaven with us some day.
00:07:47.80\00:07:50.15
And so we also pray before
we go asking God to guide us.
00:07:50.16\00:07:55.04
You know, we've met
people like one lady
00:07:55.05\00:07:57.40
that we showed up to
00:07:57.41\00:07:59.25
and she's a
Spanish speaking lady.
00:07:59.26\00:08:01.47
But she said I been looking
00:08:01.48\00:08:03.15
for some good
literature to read.
00:08:03.16\00:08:05.24
And we knew that God
had guided us to her door
00:08:05.25\00:08:08.81
and she actually bought
00:08:08.82\00:08:10.22
some literature
from us. Praise God.
00:08:10.23\00:08:11.80
Can you say amen to that?
00:08:11.81\00:08:13.18
Here is a whole family involved
00:08:13.19\00:08:14.71
in literature evangelism work
00:08:14.72\00:08:16.56
and this is an
inspiration to us.
00:08:16.57\00:08:18.12
Thank you very much. Thank you.
00:08:18.13\00:08:19.10
You can go.
00:08:19.11\00:08:21.63
You know people
can still find money
00:08:21.64\00:08:24.66
for things of value, amen.
00:08:24.67\00:08:27.03
The people, you
know, are all cutting back
00:08:27.04\00:08:30.00
in different ways and
getting more gas efficient cars
00:08:30.01\00:08:33.41
but when you share with them
00:08:33.42\00:08:35.63
something of value
they can find the money.
00:08:35.64\00:08:37.74
Just got an email
a little while ago
00:08:37.75\00:08:40.97
at Creation Illustrated,
and this lady was writing,
00:08:40.98\00:08:44.62
we're having to cut back,
we're falling on tough times
00:08:44.63\00:08:47.51
and we're getting rid of all
of our magazine subscriptions
00:08:47.52\00:08:51.23
expect Creation Illustrated.
00:08:51.24\00:08:53.48
Can you say amen to that?
00:08:53.49\00:08:54.93
My next guest is
David Overmiller,
00:08:54.94\00:08:57.16
director of SOULS West.
00:08:57.17\00:08:58.89
David, what is SOULS West?
00:08:58.90\00:09:01.20
The SOULS West is a
Seventh-day Adventist
00:09:01.21\00:09:04.07
Outreach Leadership School,
00:09:04.08\00:09:06.01
that's what SOULS
stands for, little closer.
00:09:06.02\00:09:08.48
Yeah. Very good.
00:09:08.49\00:09:09.46
I need to say that
again? Go ahead. Okay.
00:09:09.47\00:09:11.24
SOULS West is a
Seventh-day Adventist
00:09:11.25\00:09:17.85
Outreach Leadership School,
00:09:17.86\00:09:19.71
that's what SOULS stands for.
00:09:19.72\00:09:21.49
It's a two year program
00:09:21.50\00:09:22.96
that emphasis not
only a classroom education
00:09:22.97\00:09:25.78
and Adventist beliefs.
00:09:25.79\00:09:27.20
But also teaches
Adventist youth to do
00:09:27.21\00:09:30.46
a variety of different
forms of evangelism. Excellent.
00:09:30.47\00:09:33.69
And how long has this
program been going on?
00:09:33.70\00:09:36.22
This is our ninth year
coming up this September.
00:09:36.23\00:09:38.51
And how many graduates do
you think you have so far?
00:09:38.52\00:09:41.29
The last eight years
about a 150, 200 in that area.
00:09:41.30\00:09:44.26
Very good.
00:09:44.27\00:09:45.24
And how is this program
different from other program?
00:09:45.25\00:09:48.55
Well it's a hard question.
00:09:48.56\00:09:49.73
There are a lot of
programs out there.
00:09:49.74\00:09:50.88
But I'll tell you what we do,
00:09:50.89\00:09:52.58
and we as a school
try to balance class time
00:09:52.59\00:09:56.33
with field time.
00:09:56.34\00:09:58.36
We put a lot of emphasis on time
00:09:58.37\00:10:00.45
that students would
get in the field hands on.
00:10:00.46\00:10:03.81
They do colporteur practicums,
00:10:03.82\00:10:05.56
they do a Bible work practicum,
00:10:05.57\00:10:07.06
they preach an
evangelistic series.
00:10:07.07\00:10:08.78
They work with local Churches,
00:10:08.79\00:10:10.51
they lead a Magabook programs.
00:10:10.52\00:10:12.64
Our students hopefully
can do almost anything.
00:10:12.65\00:10:16.20
It sounds like the
literature evangelism work
00:10:16.21\00:10:18.25
though is a very
strong segment in the program.
00:10:18.26\00:10:21.86
And what inspired you to
make this what seems to be
00:10:21.87\00:10:27.33
a foundational
segment of the program?
00:10:27.34\00:10:30.32
Well, we believe firmly
in the Spirit of Prophecy
00:10:30.33\00:10:33.67
and the Lord's councils,
00:10:33.68\00:10:34.67
amen. Amen.
00:10:34.68\00:10:36.03
And Ellen White says
that the best preparation
00:10:36.04\00:10:39.63
for other types
of ministerial labor
00:10:39.64\00:10:42.23
is colporteur work.
00:10:42.24\00:10:44.03
And we've tried
to make that our base
00:10:44.04\00:10:47.57
so that students
get the best preparation
00:10:47.58\00:10:50.18
for anytime of field of
labor they go into. Fantastic.
00:10:50.19\00:10:53.37
Now what is the sequence
that a student might go through?
00:10:53.38\00:10:56.08
I mean, are they
sitting in classrooms
00:10:56.09\00:10:57.61
for six months or what happens?
00:10:57.62\00:10:59.87
The students
first have to go through
00:10:59.88\00:11:02.22
summer colporteur program.
00:11:02.23\00:11:03.85
No student that's
accepted into the SOULS program,
00:11:03.86\00:11:07.84
well no student
accepted that hasn't canvased.
00:11:07.85\00:11:10.43
So they first have to
complete a summer program.
00:11:10.44\00:11:13.38
After that when
they come to the program
00:11:13.39\00:11:15.10
we alternate between class time
00:11:15.11\00:11:17.02
and field work
but their first year,
00:11:17.03\00:11:19.87
we emphasized different
types of colporteur works,
00:11:19.88\00:11:22.19
Magabooks, big
books, Magabook leadership.
00:11:22.20\00:11:25.02
Then their second year is
when they do their Bible work
00:11:25.03\00:11:27.58
and evangelism practicums.
00:11:27.59\00:11:29.11
They preach the
evangelistic series,
00:11:29.12\00:11:30.90
do Bible work in a local church.
00:11:30.91\00:11:32.91
So am I understanding you
do like a half a day of classes
00:11:32.92\00:11:36.08
and half a day of colporteuring
00:11:36.09\00:11:37.36
or is this broken
into segments in the year?
00:11:37.37\00:11:40.48
It's broken into segments
00:11:40.49\00:11:41.60
where they would have say
00:11:41.61\00:11:42.67
a three week block of classes,
00:11:42.68\00:11:44.47
then they would go into
the field for a couple weeks.
00:11:44.48\00:11:46.81
Back into the
classroom for a couple weeks
00:11:46.82\00:11:49.06
and it alternates
back and froth like that
00:11:49.07\00:11:50.96
throughout the whole year.
00:11:50.97\00:11:51.94
And you're based in Prescott,
00:11:51.95\00:11:53.02
Arizona, you're just
doing this in Prescott itself
00:11:53.03\00:11:55.49
or elsewhere.
00:11:55.50\00:11:56.70
Prescott is just our home,
when we're actually at home.
00:11:56.71\00:11:59.54
We spend a lot of
the year in the field
00:11:59.55\00:12:02.12
on the road working
00:12:02.13\00:12:03.67
everything from like last year
00:12:03.68\00:12:05.57
we worked Albuquerque,
00:12:05.58\00:12:06.69
Las Vegas,
Phoenix, Yuma, San Diego,
00:12:06.70\00:12:09.55
Los Angeles, Central California,
00:12:09.56\00:12:11.66
we worked the whole west coast.
00:12:11.67\00:12:13.58
Very good and sounds like
00:12:13.59\00:12:16.23
the students can do
pretty well with this.
00:12:16.24\00:12:18.97
I mean does this
help with their tuition.
00:12:18.98\00:12:21.91
Well, every student
is a little different
00:12:21.92\00:12:24.56
but as a general rule
students do very well.
00:12:24.57\00:12:27.32
The students has the opportunity
00:12:27.33\00:12:28.96
if he's faithful
00:12:28.97\00:12:29.94
and uses His money
wisely to pay off his tuition
00:12:29.95\00:12:32.17
in the course of his two years.
00:12:32.18\00:12:33.70
Can you say amen to that,
00:12:33.71\00:12:34.82
go to college and learn
00:12:34.83\00:12:37.12
and be able to
graduate debt free.
00:12:37.13\00:12:40.83
Now, roughly how many books
00:12:40.84\00:12:42.66
do you think you sold in a year?
00:12:42.67\00:12:45.16
Well, over the years,
00:12:45.17\00:12:46.42
I don't know,
00:12:46.43\00:12:47.40
you know, we work
together with every conference
00:12:47.41\00:12:49.51
in the Pacific Union
00:12:49.52\00:12:50.59
and I know last year
that students in SOULS
00:12:50.60\00:12:53.76
in connection with
those conferences distributed
00:12:53.77\00:12:56.11
more than a million
dollars in literature.
00:12:56.12\00:12:58.16
Amen, that's a lot of books.
00:12:58.17\00:12:59.99
That's a lot of books.
00:13:00.00\00:13:01.07
And, so you're involved,
are there any testimonies
00:13:01.08\00:13:04.67
or graduates that have done,
gone on to do other things.
00:13:04.68\00:13:09.19
Yeah, the door is really
open for students right now
00:13:09.20\00:13:11.99
and they can go back to school,
00:13:12.00\00:13:14.09
they can go be a
nurse or an accountant
00:13:14.10\00:13:17.63
and then go into
the Church as a leader
00:13:17.64\00:13:20.24
and there has been some of that.
00:13:20.25\00:13:21.32
But our placement
00:13:21.33\00:13:22.84
in the Church is
very high with, students.
00:13:22.85\00:13:24.99
A lot of them work
00:13:25.00\00:13:26.17
as Bible workers
in local churches,
00:13:26.18\00:13:28.91
but many of them have
gone on almost every union,
00:13:28.92\00:13:31.85
excuse me, every
conference in the Pacific Union
00:13:31.86\00:13:34.15
as a literature
ministry director
00:13:34.16\00:13:36.18
and those directors,
00:13:36.19\00:13:37.61
except for one in this
union are all SOULS students.
00:13:37.62\00:13:40.62
Can you say amen to,
there's people out there,
00:13:40.63\00:13:42.80
there's young
people who are committing
00:13:42.81\00:13:44.19
their lives to sharing the word
00:13:44.20\00:13:46.64
and the printed word.
00:13:46.65\00:13:48.00
And this program
is the foundation,
00:13:48.01\00:13:52.37
is that the young
people need to good be
00:13:52.38\00:13:54.60
committed to
literature evangelism.
00:13:54.61\00:13:57.46
Their call to canvas
00:13:57.47\00:13:59.11
and before they even
start their education
00:13:59.12\00:14:02.55
they've been
involved in canvassing.
00:14:02.56\00:14:05.20
Daivd, thank you so
much for sharing with us,
00:14:05.21\00:14:07.49
God bless you.
00:14:07.50\00:14:09.23
So there's major
programs out there
00:14:09.24\00:14:12.39
and I just have to tell you that
00:14:12.40\00:14:14.17
even in our little Church
00:14:14.18\00:14:15.43
in Meadow District, California,
00:14:15.44\00:14:16.78
about a hundred members.
00:14:16.79\00:14:18.14
We have students who
have gone out and done this.
00:14:18.15\00:14:21.25
There is people we have
00:14:21.26\00:14:22.61
about seven
literature of evangelistic.
00:14:22.62\00:14:24.92
This just in our
youth group of 30 people,
00:14:24.93\00:14:27.59
there's seven
literature evangelists.
00:14:27.60\00:14:29.76
Eight people came
to youth for Jesus.
00:14:29.77\00:14:32.00
Six went to Afco,
00:14:32.01\00:14:33.28
five went to Mission
College of Evangelism,
00:14:33.29\00:14:36.16
four Bible workers
and went to SOULS West.
00:14:36.17\00:14:39.09
Now my next
guest is Nelson Urge,
00:14:39.10\00:14:41.39
and you are a
graduate of SOULS West.
00:14:41.40\00:14:44.60
That's right.
00:14:44.61\00:14:45.87
And you're based with?
00:14:45.88\00:14:48.10
Central California.
00:14:48.11\00:14:49.09
And the name of your ministry?
00:14:49.10\00:14:50.52
G.L.O.W. Which stands for?
00:14:50.53\00:14:52.01
G.L.O.W. is
actually an acronym it stands
00:14:52.02\00:14:53.65
for giving light to our world,
00:14:53.66\00:14:55.13
one page at a time.
00:14:55.14\00:14:56.26
It's ministry basically
00:14:56.27\00:14:57.51
where we're
getting people involved
00:14:57.52\00:14:58.96
and getting back into the habit
00:14:58.97\00:15:00.18
of caring literature with
them where ever year the go.
00:15:00.19\00:15:02.24
And this has been going for
how long? Twenty two months.
00:15:02.25\00:15:04.87
Less than two years, friends,
00:15:04.88\00:15:06.29
less than two years.
00:15:06.30\00:15:07.66
And so how did it get started?
00:15:07.67\00:15:11.21
Well not too long ago,
00:15:11.22\00:15:13.18
22 months ago we got this idea
00:15:13.19\00:15:15.46
of getting everybody involved
in literature evangelism.
00:15:15.47\00:15:17.71
So we went to the
books, Spirit of Prophecy,
00:15:17.72\00:15:20.36
and pulled some
blueprints out of there.
00:15:20.37\00:15:21.67
We started finding quotes
00:15:21.68\00:15:22.71
like let every believer
scatter broadcast tracks
00:15:22.72\00:15:26.29
and leaflets and books continue
00:15:26.30\00:15:27.71
in the message for this time.
00:15:27.72\00:15:29.09
So we started
developing a program
00:15:29.10\00:15:30.55
around those kind of principles.
00:15:30.56\00:15:32.02
And do you have any stories,
00:15:32.03\00:15:33.83
these, than
developed into tracks
00:15:33.84\00:15:37.42
and that are easy to hand out?
00:15:37.43\00:15:40.10
And do have any
stories of people
00:15:40.11\00:15:41.94
who have
responded to these tracks?
00:15:41.95\00:15:44.63
Totally, in fact every time
one of us hands out a track,
00:15:44.64\00:15:47.12
the G.L.O.W. track on the back
00:15:47.13\00:15:48.15
there is contact information
00:15:48.16\00:15:49.27
so that people can
sign up for Bible studies
00:15:49.28\00:15:50.82
or request more literature.
00:15:50.83\00:15:52.47
Not too long ago we actually,
00:15:52.48\00:15:54.54
a young woman went and
placed a track on a table,
00:15:54.55\00:15:57.01
the Merced County jail Chaplain,
00:15:57.02\00:15:58.82
picked up the track, read it,
00:15:58.83\00:16:00.85
called the number on the back
00:16:00.86\00:16:01.97
at the G.L.O.W.
program and said,
00:16:01.98\00:16:03.11
I want this literature
for all 900 of my men in jail.
00:16:03.12\00:16:06.21
We mail out 2000
pieces of literature to them.
00:16:06.22\00:16:08.44
We also had another
man email into us saying,
00:16:08.45\00:16:11.76
I want to get
some more literature.
00:16:11.77\00:16:13.12
I love the state of
the dead track that we got
00:16:13.13\00:16:15.42
and thanks to the person
00:16:15.43\00:16:16.41
who left it in
the barbeque grill
00:16:16.42\00:16:18.20
at Orchard's
hardware store for me. Amen.
00:16:18.21\00:16:21.14
So you can leave this anywhere.
00:16:21.15\00:16:22.46
I know that my wife
00:16:22.47\00:16:23.44
and I between the gas
pumps there is a pillar
00:16:23.45\00:16:25.72
and a brick ledge,
00:16:25.73\00:16:26.84
we've left G.L.O.W
literature there. Amen.
00:16:26.85\00:16:28.74
Right in eye level.
00:16:28.75\00:16:29.96
So now, it sounds
like anybody can do this,
00:16:29.97\00:16:33.02
how about the young people.
00:16:33.03\00:16:34.02
Do you have any
experiences there?
00:16:34.03\00:16:35.51
Totally, we have young
kids all over Central California
00:16:35.52\00:16:38.99
and in various places
handing out literature.
00:16:39.00\00:16:40.83
And basically,
if you have a thumb
00:16:40.84\00:16:42.58
you can carry a
piece of literature
00:16:42.59\00:16:43.74
and pass it out to somebody,
00:16:43.75\00:16:44.72
you know what I mean.
00:16:44.73\00:16:45.70
In fact not too long ago
00:16:45.71\00:16:47.76
we had our
whole pathfinder club.
00:16:47.77\00:16:50.43
Three quarters of
the pathfinder clubs
00:16:50.44\00:16:51.75
in Central California Conference
00:16:51.76\00:16:52.95
went out on Halloween night
00:16:52.96\00:16:54.56
and they passed out
literature on spiritualism,
00:16:54.57\00:16:57.96
if there is one day
00:16:57.97\00:16:59.33
to go door to
door it's Halloween.
00:16:59.34\00:17:01.72
Because everyone is
expecting you already.
00:17:01.73\00:17:04.75
So they get very well in sending
00:17:04.76\00:17:07.44
this out on the Halloween.
00:17:07.45\00:17:09.25
And how do people order these.
00:17:09.26\00:17:12.84
I mean? Good question.
00:17:12.85\00:17:14.97
Well, you know,
you're an individual
00:17:14.98\00:17:16.60
and you wanna
pick up some literature
00:17:16.61\00:17:17.97
from the G.L.O.W. Program,
00:17:17.98\00:17:19.05
we actually have
a booth right here
00:17:19.06\00:17:20.10
just come by we have information
00:17:20.11\00:17:21.58
so that you can
call us and order more.
00:17:21.59\00:17:23.69
Even conferences, if
you wanna order an book
00:17:23.70\00:17:25.72
we work with
you on that as well.
00:17:25.73\00:17:27.86
We have a website
sdaglow.org, sdaglow.org
00:17:27.87\00:17:34.91
and there people
can get information
00:17:34.92\00:17:36.81
to connect with us
and get literature.
00:17:36.82\00:17:38.34
We can do special to iterature
00:17:38.35\00:17:39.54
and stuff for people.
00:17:39.55\00:17:40.62
So if I wanted to buy a
couple thousand of these,
00:17:40.63\00:17:44.44
how much do they
cost or how do they come?
00:17:44.45\00:17:46.52
Well when you
buy any book get them
00:17:46.53\00:17:48.76
at a really good
rates from out presses,
00:17:48.77\00:17:50.51
specific press
and stuff like that.
00:17:50.52\00:17:52.53
You know, the Lord
has really been blessing
00:17:52.54\00:17:53.79
the ministry thus far.
00:17:53.80\00:17:55.02
We've actually
ordered four million tracks
00:17:55.03\00:17:57.30
in the 22 months that
this program has been around
00:17:57.31\00:17:59.05
and over two million
00:17:59.06\00:18:00.37
have been
distributed all ready. Amen.
00:18:00.38\00:18:02.11
Now it's not just
in Central California,
00:18:02.12\00:18:06.48
this is spreading elsewhere.
00:18:06.49\00:18:07.92
Where is this going?
00:18:07.93\00:18:09.28
That's right, actually
since the G.L.O.W has started,
00:18:09.29\00:18:11.83
we have heard reports of
people passing out literature
00:18:11.84\00:18:15.67
in Scotland, the Vatican.
00:18:15.68\00:18:18.79
We've got a
handwritten Bible study request
00:18:18.80\00:18:20.89
two weeks ago from a
person in El Salvador
00:18:20.90\00:18:23.88
and it's spreading
across United States as well.
00:18:23.89\00:18:25.66
In fact we got a
call from a Baptist pastor
00:18:25.67\00:18:28.71
who is in Michigan
00:18:28.72\00:18:29.69
and he found a
spiritualism G.L.O.W track
00:18:29.70\00:18:31.75
on a McDonald's table
00:18:31.76\00:18:33.38
and he signed up
for Bible studies.
00:18:33.39\00:18:35.03
Can you say amen to that.
00:18:35.04\00:18:36.96
Well, it's just
inspiring to hear this.
00:18:36.97\00:18:39.59
And so what are
some of the titles
00:18:39.60\00:18:41.41
that people can expect?
00:18:41.42\00:18:42.62
Well, we have a
various like a whole retinue,
00:18:42.63\00:18:44.78
we have Sabbath,
State of the Dead,
00:18:44.79\00:18:46.94
Second Coming, Daniel II,
00:18:46.95\00:18:48.65
Judgment, Health, Does
God Care That I'm Hurting?
00:18:48.66\00:18:51.45
This is one that is my favorite,
00:18:51.46\00:18:53.23
Does God Care That I'm Hurting?
00:18:53.24\00:18:54.82
I use this, I went
to fill up our tank
00:18:54.83\00:18:57.75
at a gas station,
00:18:57.76\00:18:59.11
a propane tank for our barbeque.
00:18:59.12\00:19:00.92
And I said to young
man, how is your day going?
00:19:00.93\00:19:03.36
He says, not too good,
00:19:03.37\00:19:04.47
my horse died and my
brother got a plane crash.
00:19:04.48\00:19:08.09
And I said, well,
I'll be praying for you.
00:19:08.10\00:19:10.31
And I went in and paid
00:19:10.32\00:19:11.52
and he was
outside having a cigarette
00:19:11.53\00:19:13.36
and I handed him this
piece of literature that says,
00:19:13.37\00:19:16.58
does God care that I'm hurting?
00:19:16.59\00:19:18.60
And he thanked me
00:19:18.61\00:19:19.58
and you just don't
know what's going to happen
00:19:19.59\00:19:22.10
and how is this piece helped.
00:19:22.11\00:19:23.86
Well it's been a
blessing actually.
00:19:23.87\00:19:25.27
Many people have
really enjoyed this track,
00:19:25.28\00:19:27.19
Does God Care That I'm Hurting?
00:19:27.20\00:19:28.17
Not too long ago.
00:19:28.18\00:19:29.15
In fact threw and half weeks ago
00:19:29.16\00:19:31.25
we found out
about a story of a man
00:19:31.26\00:19:33.68
who got a hold of Does
God Care That I'm Hurting?
00:19:33.69\00:19:36.64
He was on the verge
of committing suicide
00:19:36.65\00:19:39.11
when the Bible
worker in Templeton came
00:19:39.12\00:19:40.97
and found him,
00:19:40.98\00:19:42.15
handed him this track on
Does God Care That I'm Hurting?
00:19:42.16\00:19:44.25
And he started crying
even more when he got it.
00:19:44.26\00:19:46.66
The Bible worker
said, what's the matter
00:19:46.67\00:19:47.99
and he said, you
don't understand.
00:19:48.00\00:19:49.41
This is a third time
00:19:49.42\00:19:50.82
that I've
gotten this exact track
00:19:50.83\00:19:52.72
in the past three days.
00:19:52.73\00:19:54.49
And now he is an
attending search member
00:19:54.50\00:19:56.42
and he's brought his friends
with him to Church. Amen.
00:19:56.43\00:19:58.78
Now this is
something everybody can do,
00:19:58.79\00:20:00.92
and in 1939 the
Church was very involved
00:20:00.93\00:20:03.99
in sending out
tracks. That's right.
00:20:04.00\00:20:05.46
In fact in 1939,
00:20:05.47\00:20:07.46
Adventists were passing
out 20 million tracks annually.
00:20:07.47\00:20:11.93
So it was a great
evangelistic outreach.
00:20:11.94\00:20:14.22
Many people were
coming into the Church.
00:20:14.23\00:20:16.20
Ms. White says that
whole Churches were raise up
00:20:16.21\00:20:18.43
because of
literature distribution.
00:20:18.44\00:20:20.66
And so anybody can do this
00:20:20.67\00:20:22.83
and we're told
in the inspired word
00:20:22.84\00:20:25.82
that there will be
a lot of conversions.
00:20:25.83\00:20:27.73
What does it say? That's right
00:20:27.74\00:20:28.86
in fact Ms White says
00:20:28.87\00:20:30.06
that soon more than a 1000
will be converted in one day.
00:20:30.07\00:20:34.66
Most of whom will
trace their first convictions
00:20:34.67\00:20:36.58
back to the reading
of our publications.
00:20:36.59\00:20:38.42
Well, thank you
very much, Nelson.
00:20:38.43\00:20:39.77
This is an inspiration to us,
00:20:39.78\00:20:41.13
can you give a
thumbs up to Nelson.
00:20:41.14\00:20:43.40
I know in the
creation story day six
00:20:43.41\00:20:47.45
God created humans with a thumb
00:20:47.46\00:20:50.05
to be able to grasp literature
00:20:50.06\00:20:52.17
and hand it to somebody.
00:20:52.18\00:20:55.20
Okay, Volker Schmidt,
00:20:55.21\00:20:56.61
you're from
Eastlex Machine Corporation
00:20:56.62\00:20:59.85
and you have a burden
00:20:59.86\00:21:00.88
for sharing the
message through literature.
00:21:00.89\00:21:03.05
What, why do you do this?
00:21:03.06\00:21:05.16
Well, Tom, the
world out there today
00:21:05.17\00:21:07.94
is really in a bad shape.
00:21:07.95\00:21:09.85
There are no answers to
the problems we're facing.
00:21:09.86\00:21:12.19
Not only in America
but around the world.
00:21:12.20\00:21:14.23
And I know that God has given us
00:21:14.24\00:21:16.64
a message that's fantastic
00:21:16.65\00:21:18.10
because He gives us the answers.
00:21:18.11\00:21:19.84
Why we're here, what went wrong
00:21:19.85\00:21:21.14
and what hope we have.
00:21:21.15\00:21:22.96
And so what is your program.
00:21:22.97\00:21:24.57
How do you do this?
00:21:24.58\00:21:25.83
Well, you know, let me tell you
00:21:25.84\00:21:27.33
what gets me going, Tom,
00:21:27.34\00:21:29.33
is when I read Matthew
28, the last three verses.
00:21:29.34\00:21:32.31
Jesus said, "All
power is given to me
00:21:32.32\00:21:34.61
in Heaven and Earth.
00:21:34.62\00:21:35.59
I can walk with the
creator of the universe,
00:21:35.60\00:21:37.59
I feel very good."
00:21:37.60\00:21:38.81
Then He says, go.
00:21:38.82\00:21:40.42
And that's been the problem
00:21:40.43\00:21:41.41
we haven't visited our friends
00:21:41.42\00:21:43.18
and neighbors,
where ever we are.
00:21:43.19\00:21:44.71
And we need to do that.
00:21:44.72\00:21:45.81
And then at the end He says,
00:21:45.82\00:21:47.37
the last verse says,
"I will be with you".
00:21:47.38\00:21:50.26
Jesus is going to be with
me, that's what excites me,
00:21:50.27\00:21:53.17
I want to be close
to Him doing His work,
00:21:53.18\00:21:55.80
helping other people.
00:21:55.81\00:21:57.13
So what do you use
when you do this work?
00:21:57.14\00:22:00.29
Well, I use some
different things here
00:22:00.30\00:22:03.28
and let me bring this out.
00:22:03.29\00:22:04.59
Number one is I've a
little folder there we made up.
00:22:04.60\00:22:07.98
But basically what it is,
00:22:07.99\00:22:09.05
it's an
evangelistic folder that we use.
00:22:09.06\00:22:12.03
All I do is I change
some of the things on it like
00:22:12.04\00:22:15.89
for instance the dates
00:22:15.90\00:22:17.29
and the location
where we use to hold it.
00:22:17.30\00:22:19.11
Take that out.
00:22:19.12\00:22:20.09
But then put an address on it
00:22:20.10\00:22:21.40
they can contact us at the end.
00:22:21.41\00:22:23.76
And what the
folder talks about is,
00:22:23.77\00:22:26.26
is there going to be
a one world government.
00:22:26.27\00:22:27.93
What about all
things get normal again?
00:22:27.94\00:22:30.11
If God is so good,
why is the world a mess?
00:22:30.12\00:22:32.44
These are the questions
00:22:32.45\00:22:33.74
that people want to
know the answers for.
00:22:33.75\00:22:36.23
And that's very
important in that thing,
00:22:36.24\00:22:37.64
I use that.
00:22:37.65\00:22:38.77
Then I'll also use this
00:22:38.78\00:22:41.49
which is final events
from the Amazing Facts,
00:22:41.50\00:22:44.18
which talks about
what's really going to happen
00:22:44.19\00:22:46.28
and how it is going to be?
00:22:46.29\00:22:47.26
Very, very good.
00:22:47.27\00:22:48.31
And then a little book
00:22:48.32\00:22:49.29
it's called Finding
Peace Within, Steps to Christ,
00:22:49.30\00:22:52.29
and then Viable
Questions & Answers,
00:22:52.30\00:22:53.83
and we could use
any of the ASI books,
00:22:53.84\00:22:55.61
like the Great Controversy
00:22:55.62\00:22:56.61
and so on, instead of this book.
00:22:56.62\00:22:58.09
Now what do you say
when you go up to a door,
00:22:58.10\00:23:00.74
you just kind of
whatever comes to your mind
00:23:00.75\00:23:02.34
or do you have a
sequence of things that you do?
00:23:02.35\00:23:06.09
Yeah, Tom, let
me get before that
00:23:06.10\00:23:08.10
little bit something else.
00:23:08.11\00:23:09.08
You know, it's very important
00:23:09.09\00:23:10.35
that we have something that
00:23:10.36\00:23:11.58
we put into our daily schedule.
00:23:11.59\00:23:13.98
I put this in
my weekly schedule,
00:23:13.99\00:23:15.50
Tom, otherwise I wouldn't do it.
00:23:15.51\00:23:17.50
We all have good intentions
but we just carry through.
00:23:17.51\00:23:20.19
So Wednesday after work,
00:23:20.20\00:23:21.92
what I do is I do nothing else
00:23:21.93\00:23:23.47
but get my books,
my literature together
00:23:23.48\00:23:26.27
and I get on my knees.
00:23:26.28\00:23:27.90
It is Matthew 28 again,
Lord, you have all the power,
00:23:27.91\00:23:31.37
you want me to do this
00:23:31.38\00:23:32.73
and you're going to be with me.
00:23:32.74\00:23:33.73
And I pray that He
will lead and guide me
00:23:33.74\00:23:35.76
then I go out, okay.
00:23:35.77\00:23:37.66
Very important that we pray.
00:23:37.67\00:23:39.25
Then what you do?
00:23:39.26\00:23:40.24
Is there a sequence of...
00:23:40.25\00:23:43.30
All right, when
I get to the homes,
00:23:43.31\00:23:46.44
I go in and I
say, good afternoon,
00:23:46.45\00:23:48.07
I'm Volker Schmidt.
00:23:48.08\00:23:49.05
I live over here in Todds Road,
00:23:49.06\00:23:50.85
I want to share
something with you
00:23:50.86\00:23:52.82
that is meant a lot to me.
00:23:52.83\00:23:53.80
At that point I
hand them this folder.
00:23:53.81\00:23:55.57
They're looking
at all the subject
00:23:55.58\00:23:58.01
and then I go on and say,
00:23:58.02\00:23:59.00
you know, I,
from the study of my,
00:23:59.01\00:24:01.23
oh man, I'm
getting mixed up here.
00:24:01.24\00:24:02.80
That's the way it goes.
00:24:05.62\00:24:06.62
Anyway I hand them
the folder then I say,
00:24:06.63\00:24:09.69
you know, from my
study of the Bible
00:24:09.70\00:24:12.39
I've come to the conclusion
00:24:12.40\00:24:14.19
that Jesus is coming very soon,
00:24:14.20\00:24:16.37
maybe you found that too.
00:24:16.38\00:24:18.28
And do you have a Bible?
00:24:18.29\00:24:19.99
And then when they
answer that question
00:24:20.00\00:24:21.56
then sometimes you can
find out they have one,
00:24:21.57\00:24:23.48
they don't read it and
so on, anyway get to going.
00:24:23.49\00:24:26.20
Said I would like
to give you something,
00:24:26.21\00:24:28.00
these are the final events
00:24:28.01\00:24:29.57
according to what
the Bible has to say,
00:24:29.58\00:24:31.83
not what I say or
the Church says, anybody,
00:24:31.84\00:24:34.16
I think you'll
really enjoy that.
00:24:34.17\00:24:35.95
And then along with that
I would like to leave you
00:24:35.96\00:24:37.83
a little book called
Finding Peace Within,
00:24:37.84\00:24:40.95
and they're Bible
questions you will enjoy that.
00:24:40.96\00:24:43.47
I want you to get ready
for Christ's soon coming,
00:24:43.48\00:24:46.63
He loves you very
much and it's goodbye.
00:24:46.64\00:24:49.64
Very good and so
is this something
00:24:49.65\00:24:51.72
you just started a
couple of months ago
00:24:51.73\00:24:53.25
or how long have
you been doing this?
00:24:53.26\00:24:54.58
Tom, I have a burden
to get our message out
00:24:54.59\00:24:56.71
because it's so
wonderful, fantastic.
00:24:56.72\00:24:58.70
And, but this
moral regular program,
00:24:58.71\00:25:01.22
I've been doing for,
00:25:01.23\00:25:02.53
I don't know how many years,
00:25:02.54\00:25:03.51
five, ten years
maybe so like that.
00:25:03.52\00:25:05.38
And I've even written up
a program how what I'm doing
00:25:05.39\00:25:09.17
and if any of
you are interested,
00:25:09.18\00:25:10.45
you can contact me
by volker@eastlex.com
00:25:10.46\00:25:17.57
and I can send you an outline
00:25:17.58\00:25:18.87
and if you want I can even
send you what we've done here
00:25:18.88\00:25:21.34
you can make
your own folders out.
00:25:21.35\00:25:22.89
And it's a bit...I can testify
it's a very concise outline,
00:25:22.90\00:25:25.85
very organized.
00:25:25.86\00:25:27.29
And Volker will
layout and explain to you
00:25:27.30\00:25:30.53
just exactly
what you need to do.
00:25:30.54\00:25:32.42
But first of all,
set that time aside
00:25:32.43\00:25:34.49
every week to go
out there. Right.
00:25:34.50\00:25:36.67
Let me mention something
else that's very important.
00:25:36.68\00:25:38.77
When I'm finished,
00:25:38.78\00:25:40.45
I make a little map where
I have been recorded in here.
00:25:40.46\00:25:44.24
So I know next time
where to continue again.
00:25:44.25\00:25:46.63
And then I also pray
00:25:46.64\00:25:48.11
that God will
bless the literature
00:25:48.12\00:25:50.48
and may the providential
arrangements be made
00:25:50.49\00:25:52.53
in the home, that they
will read and look at it.
00:25:52.54\00:25:54.97
And really get to know
this wonderful message.
00:25:54.98\00:25:56.71
And so, do you
have any testimonies,
00:25:56.72\00:25:58.40
what has been the results?
00:25:58.41\00:25:59.52
Anything happened?
00:25:59.53\00:26:00.82
Well, the other day I came,
00:26:00.83\00:26:02.44
the first house I
came to, a lady came out,
00:26:02.45\00:26:04.06
I could tell you she
wasn't from around here.
00:26:04.07\00:26:06.11
She brought her
husband from India.
00:26:06.12\00:26:07.32
We had a little talk
together how I like India here.
00:26:07.33\00:26:09.96
But, you know,
the beautiful thing is
00:26:09.97\00:26:11.41
with this one it has
multi languages on here.
00:26:11.42\00:26:14.15
So this worked
really fantastically.
00:26:14.16\00:26:16.60
And he was very
happy to get and I went on.
00:26:16.61\00:26:19.35
Then another house I came to,
00:26:19.36\00:26:21.99
the man after I
said, do you have a Bible?
00:26:22.00\00:26:23.61
He said, oh
listen I'm an atheist,
00:26:23.62\00:26:25.61
I said, oh you
will really like this,
00:26:25.62\00:26:27.92
it's talking about
what's going to happen
00:26:27.93\00:26:29.25
very soon here.
00:26:29.26\00:26:30.27
And I gave him the book
00:26:30.28\00:26:31.25
I believe "The
Great Controversy"
00:26:31.26\00:26:32.74
now that's another way.
00:26:32.75\00:26:34.26
I want to bring this out,
00:26:34.27\00:26:35.96
Tom, when you go there
will be people who will say no.
00:26:35.97\00:26:39.72
But you know I think
I'm walking with Jesus
00:26:39.73\00:26:42.79
and I can experience
what Jesus experienced
00:26:42.80\00:26:45.19
when He was here.
00:26:45.20\00:26:46.44
People said no,
Jesus came from heaven
00:26:46.45\00:26:49.06
He gave everything.
00:26:49.07\00:26:50.37
Then they said no, it hurt Him,
00:26:50.38\00:26:51.90
it hurts me a little bit too.
00:26:51.91\00:26:53.66
But then you get to
places where people are grant,
00:26:53.67\00:26:56.29
and I wanna mention
this, the last house I came to,
00:26:56.30\00:26:59.16
the man came out of the house
00:26:59.17\00:27:01.04
and I gave him the literature
and made my presentation.
00:27:01.05\00:27:03.55
And he said, you know,
I'm so happy that you came.
00:27:03.56\00:27:07.05
I appreciate, he
shook my hand and,
00:27:07.06\00:27:09.17
you know, that makes my day
00:27:09.18\00:27:10.49
and I know Jesus was
happy when people received Him
00:27:10.50\00:27:13.26
and it brings
joy to my heart too.
00:27:13.27\00:27:15.05
Now you know, I'm busy,
00:27:15.06\00:27:17.35
you're busy, we're all busy,
00:27:17.36\00:27:18.87
what if I don't
feel called to this
00:27:18.88\00:27:20.25
I just let others do it.
00:27:20.26\00:27:22.55
You know, Tom, this
is very interesting.
00:27:22.56\00:27:24.04
Every time I go
there is this hesitation,
00:27:24.05\00:27:28.16
you really don't want to
go and I been over this many,
00:27:28.17\00:27:30.98
many times and you
know what I've concluded?
00:27:30.99\00:27:33.84
The devil says, you
don't really want to go
00:27:33.85\00:27:36.01
and visit your
friends and neighbors.
00:27:36.02\00:27:38.06
And I said Lord, I'm so thankful
00:27:38.07\00:27:39.67
that you are
going to be with me,
00:27:39.68\00:27:41.34
I want your experience.
00:27:41.35\00:27:42.72
So you're encouraging people
00:27:42.73\00:27:44.07
to have the personal experience,
00:27:44.08\00:27:45.44
to look people in the eye.
00:27:45.45\00:27:48.17
Frankly, it's easier
just to right a check
00:27:48.18\00:27:50.03
and let somebody else do it.
00:27:50.04\00:27:51.65
In fact there's young
people in our own Church.
00:27:51.66\00:27:54.27
Hanna Hooker in
Mississippi this summer,
00:27:54.28\00:27:56.77
sold 40 books in one
day, isn't that good enough?
00:27:56.78\00:27:59.35
Doesn't that cover for me?
00:27:59.36\00:28:01.19
Well, I tell you for me,
00:28:01.20\00:28:02.87
I appreciate
what experiences I...
00:28:02.88\00:28:05.37
when I look in
people eyes like you said.
00:28:05.38\00:28:07.60
And I know they've responded,
00:28:07.61\00:28:10.10
it makes my week
to have the experience
00:28:10.11\00:28:13.29
of having been with Jesus
00:28:13.30\00:28:15.33
and having giving them
literature that day will,
00:28:15.34\00:28:17.69
that can lead
them to eternal life
00:28:17.70\00:28:19.62
and I can see
that one day in heaven.
00:28:19.63\00:28:21.65
Amen, amen.
00:28:21.66\00:28:22.86
Well, this is
something that everyone can do.
00:28:22.87\00:28:25.03
We've heard from people
00:28:25.04\00:28:26.13
that are going
to college to learn
00:28:26.14\00:28:28.03
how to be literature evangelists
00:28:28.04\00:28:30.39
and making that
part of their education.
00:28:30.40\00:28:32.53
We've seen
families raising money
00:28:32.54\00:28:34.24
for their home
schooling and coming to ASI.
00:28:34.25\00:28:36.87
And here Volker is
giving away free literature.
00:28:36.88\00:28:40.22
Is there anyone here,
00:28:40.23\00:28:41.89
this is, this is
not a just a general,
00:28:41.90\00:28:44.13
you know, raise your hand
00:28:44.14\00:28:45.69
because the person
next to you is doing it.
00:28:45.70\00:28:47.46
Do you feel called,
00:28:47.47\00:28:48.50
do you feel this is part
of your Christian experience
00:28:48.51\00:28:50.62
to share literature with
your friends and neighbors?
00:28:50.63\00:28:54.32
Amen, amen.
00:28:54.33\00:28:56.06
We wanna have a prayer
so keep your hands high.
00:28:56.07\00:28:58.34
We wanna have a
prayer for these people.
00:28:58.35\00:29:01.08
Schmidt told me that if
10% of the Adventist homes
00:29:01.09\00:29:04.98
would do this once a week,
00:29:04.99\00:29:06.75
how much
literature would we get out.
00:29:06.76\00:29:08.60
40 million homes we would visit.
00:29:08.61\00:29:11.14
A year? Yes.
00:29:11.15\00:29:12.21
And I'm just
visiting eight homes,
00:29:12.22\00:29:13.84
I didn't mentioned that.
00:29:13.85\00:29:14.82
Eight homes all I do a week,
and that's a good quantity.
00:29:14.83\00:29:17.61
But if we would do
that nationwide 10%,
00:29:17.62\00:29:20.72
40 million homes
would be visited.
00:29:20.73\00:29:23.07
Everybody who
raised your hands stand up,
00:29:23.08\00:29:24.88
we want to have a
prayer for you right now
00:29:24.89\00:29:26.64
because you're making
a commitment right now
00:29:26.65\00:29:28.92
to do this on a weekly basis.
00:29:28.93\00:29:31.19
Volker, would you
pray for these people? Yes.
00:29:31.20\00:29:33.45
Our Father in heaven
you see us standing here.
00:29:33.46\00:29:37.26
We've neglected
visiting our friends
00:29:37.27\00:29:39.13
and neighbors but we
want to do that differently.
00:29:39.14\00:29:40.99
Now we feel they
need the same information,
00:29:41.00\00:29:44.64
the same hope that we have
00:29:44.65\00:29:45.82
and I pray Lord that you
will bless each of us here
00:29:45.83\00:29:48.04
as we're standing before you.
00:29:48.05\00:29:49.96
We want to see you coming,
00:29:49.97\00:29:51.38
we want our
neighbors to see you coming.
00:29:51.39\00:29:53.27
We want to be ready
for your soon coming, Lord.
00:29:53.28\00:29:55.45
Bless each one and
empower us with your spirit
00:29:55.46\00:29:58.92
and your might.
00:29:58.93\00:29:59.90
I pray in Jesus name, amen.
00:29:59.91\00:30:01.70
Amen, thank you. God bless you.
00:30:01.71\00:30:03.20
You're an inspiration to us.
00:30:03.21\00:30:04.31
And this is
something anybody can do, amen.
00:30:04.32\00:30:07.48
The literature
work, our presses,
00:30:07.49\00:30:09.11
when the Church was young,
the presses started rolling
00:30:09.12\00:30:11.95
and that's why we're here today.
00:30:11.96\00:30:13.71
And the presses
are still rolling
00:30:13.72\00:30:15.13
and we need to
keep them that way.
00:30:15.14\00:30:16.69
You know, the printed word
00:30:16.70\00:30:17.67
can reach people like no other.
00:30:17.68\00:30:19.92
We've cell phones and Internet
00:30:19.93\00:30:21.66
and all the rest
but the printed word
00:30:21.67\00:30:23.43
we've found with Creation
00:30:23.44\00:30:24.60
Illustrated magazine has
a profound impact on people
00:30:24.61\00:30:28.54
when they glance,
have a reason to pick it up
00:30:28.55\00:30:31.07
and then read the truth.
00:30:31.08\00:30:32.74
There's a line that is
drawn through the ages,
00:30:34.82\00:30:43.40
On that line stands
an old rugged cross.
00:30:43.41\00:30:52.10
On that cross, a
battle is raging,
00:30:52.11\00:31:00.54
For the gain of
man's soul or his loss.
00:31:00.55\00:31:08.81
On one side, march
the forces of evil,
00:31:08.82\00:31:16.24
All the demons,
and devils of hell.
00:31:16.25\00:31:23.84
On the other,
the angels of glory,
00:31:23.85\00:31:31.30
and they meet
on Golgotha's hill.
00:31:31.31\00:31:39.26
The earth shakes with
the force of the conflict,
00:31:39.27\00:31:46.44
and the sun refuses to shine.
00:31:46.45\00:31:53.63
For there hangs
God's son, in the balance,
00:31:53.64\00:32:00.81
and then through
the darkness he cries.
00:32:00.82\00:32:08.10
It is finished,
the battle is over.
00:32:08.11\00:32:15.71
It is finished,
there'll be no more war.
00:32:15.72\00:32:22.85
It is finished, the
end of the conflict,
00:32:22.86\00:32:30.42
It is finished
and Jesus is Lord.
00:32:30.43\00:32:39.18
I heard the king of the ages
00:32:39.19\00:32:47.97
Had fought all
the battles for me
00:32:47.98\00:32:56.57
And that victory was
mine for the claiming
00:32:56.58\00:33:03.82
And now praise
his name, I am free.
00:33:03.83\00:33:11.24
It is finished,
the battle is over.
00:33:11.25\00:33:19.06
It is finished,
there'll be no more war.
00:33:19.07\00:33:26.41
It is finished, the
end of the conflict,
00:33:26.42\00:33:34.07
It is finished
and Jesus is Lord.
00:33:34.08\00:33:41.82
It is finished
and Jesus is Lord.
00:33:41.83\00:33:58.63
Good evening.
00:34:12.26\00:34:14.55
There are so many ministries
00:34:14.56\00:34:16.15
that are going on
all over the world
00:34:16.16\00:34:19.02
and sharing Christ
in the market places
00:34:19.03\00:34:21.18
now worldwide
for our organization.
00:34:21.19\00:34:25.13
And so this evening we have
the ASI President for Europe,
00:34:25.14\00:34:29.77
and we also
have, who is Angel Duo,
00:34:29.78\00:34:33.57
and we have Radim Passer,
00:34:33.58\00:34:35.37
who is the VP, Vice
President for Evangelism.
00:34:35.38\00:34:39.91
They're now gonna tell us
00:34:39.92\00:34:40.99
about how Europe
is sharing Christ
00:34:41.00\00:34:43.38
in the market place.
00:34:43.39\00:34:44.58
It's nice to be here again
00:34:47.60\00:34:49.73
and a blessing to be
here sharing with you
00:34:49.74\00:34:54.12
the experiences that
we're having in Europe.
00:34:54.13\00:34:57.39
It's
challenging, the word there.
00:34:57.40\00:34:59.95
But ASI is a
growing force in Europe.
00:34:59.96\00:35:02.50
In this moment, we are
present in 14 countries
00:35:02.51\00:35:06.29
and our membership is
00:35:06.30\00:35:08.18
more than 700
members already and growing.
00:35:08.19\00:35:12.70
But the main challenge is
00:35:12.71\00:35:14.89
to get all the
lay people moving,
00:35:14.90\00:35:17.28
working for Jesus Christ
and preaching the gospel.
00:35:17.29\00:35:21.07
And that is what
we're trying to do.
00:35:21.08\00:35:23.12
And we are very happy
00:35:23.13\00:35:26.33
because we are
finding a lot of support.
00:35:26.34\00:35:29.06
And it is written for instance,
00:35:29.07\00:35:32.12
with whom we are
developing the program
00:35:32.13\00:35:35.38
with the new beginnings,
00:35:35.39\00:35:37.20
and working in small groups
in all different countries.
00:35:37.21\00:35:41.30
In Spain particularly,
00:35:41.31\00:35:42.76
we've had a great
experience the last months,
00:35:42.77\00:35:46.67
with our program.
00:35:46.68\00:35:48.21
And in the few
months in October,
00:35:48.22\00:35:53.31
we are going to
have reaping campaigns
00:35:53.32\00:35:55.85
all over the country.
00:35:55.86\00:35:57.84
And Pastor Robert
Costa is going to lead
00:35:57.85\00:36:01.16
the main one in Barcelona City,
00:36:01.17\00:36:03.83
and 25 members of
ASI are going to lead
00:36:03.84\00:36:07.25
their own
campaigns in different towns
00:36:07.26\00:36:11.11
all over the country.
00:36:11.12\00:36:13.53
So, this is what we
want to do all over Europe.
00:36:13.54\00:36:18.12
And we assure
that we're gonna do it
00:36:18.13\00:36:22.24
with the Lord's help.
00:36:22.25\00:36:24.44
We're also very
active in youth evangelism,
00:36:24.45\00:36:28.32
not only
evangelism also training
00:36:28.33\00:36:30.48
and Radim will talk a little bit
00:36:30.49\00:36:31.88
about that just in a minute.
00:36:31.89\00:36:34.61
But I can proudly say that
00:36:34.62\00:36:37.71
we've been working this year
00:36:37.72\00:36:39.74
in a very important city,
00:36:39.75\00:36:41.27
that is Santiago de Compostela,
00:36:41.28\00:36:44.28
that is the second
Catholic city in the world.
00:36:44.29\00:36:49.46
And we have a very
small church there,
00:36:49.47\00:36:52.33
but we had our
young people working,
00:36:52.34\00:36:54.62
and the result has been great.
00:36:54.63\00:36:57.60
Because all our
young people are,
00:36:57.61\00:37:00.56
you know, very
happy with the work
00:37:00.57\00:37:02.41
they've done there.
00:37:02.42\00:37:04.05
And we've reached the number
of four baptisms at the end.
00:37:04.06\00:37:10.23
And that in that place
I can tell it's something.
00:37:10.24\00:37:13.82
We also have a lot of
people with Bible studies
00:37:13.83\00:37:15.77
and we praise
the Lord for the work
00:37:15.78\00:37:19.71
that has been done there.
00:37:19.72\00:37:20.98
But this is also
being done in England,
00:37:20.99\00:37:23.53
in other countries in Europe,
00:37:23.54\00:37:25.23
but that I will let
Radim that is responsible
00:37:25.24\00:37:29.30
for evangelism in
Europe to go on with that.
00:37:29.31\00:37:32.55
It is my privilege to be
here with you, good evening.
00:37:35.19\00:37:39.63
First of all, I
would like to thank God
00:37:39.64\00:37:43.77
I can be here
because if 12 years ago
00:37:43.78\00:37:46.72
anybody told to
me, or put me question
00:37:46.73\00:37:53.13
about the preaching
gospel in the Europe,
00:37:53.14\00:37:55.03
I would him probably
what is preaching the gospel?
00:37:55.04\00:37:58.78
But God is merciful.
00:38:00.45\00:38:03.01
Europe is of course
difficult to mission field.
00:38:03.02\00:38:06.48
Maybe some of you can here
00:38:06.49\00:38:09.80
Macedonian
calling like Apostle Paul
00:38:09.81\00:38:13.25
from Europe few years ago.
00:38:13.26\00:38:15.70
And I think we
have to be good example
00:38:15.71\00:38:20.44
for our members,
because we need to wake up.
00:38:20.45\00:38:24.15
We have good
tools at the moment,
00:38:24.16\00:38:26.72
we translated DVD programs,
00:38:26.73\00:38:28.74
new beginnings
in many languages.
00:38:28.75\00:38:31.91
We started to use
program use for Jesus
00:38:31.92\00:38:35.21
in some countries
in Europe like France,
00:38:35.22\00:38:38.33
Spain, and Great Britain,
00:38:38.34\00:38:39.77
Hungary, Czech
Republic and few others.
00:38:39.78\00:38:42.89
Of course it's
also very important
00:38:42.90\00:38:45.02
to have schools for
training our evangelists
00:38:45.03\00:38:49.10
and the missionary workers.
00:38:49.11\00:38:51.23
It is very important,
00:38:51.24\00:38:52.24
it's nice also to see every year
00:38:52.25\00:38:55.04
more and more people,
including youths in Europe
00:38:55.05\00:38:58.52
to have patience
of sharing the Christ.
00:38:58.53\00:39:01.79
But of course we will need
much workers for God's work.
00:39:01.80\00:39:07.84
In many countries
00:39:07.85\00:39:08.82
we're starting to
work with small groups.
00:39:08.83\00:39:11.80
And that's why as Angel said,
00:39:11.81\00:39:13.53
we're preparing
some reaping campaigns,
00:39:13.54\00:39:18.65
in some cities like Rome, Italy,
00:39:18.66\00:39:20.81
Barcelona,
Spain, Lisbon, Portugal,
00:39:20.82\00:39:23.78
and Prague, Czech Republic.
00:39:23.79\00:39:26.51
And please pray for Europe.
00:39:26.52\00:39:30.64
Because some
years, some centuries ago,
00:39:30.65\00:39:33.01
we exported
Christianity to the whole world,
00:39:33.02\00:39:35.21
and now we're in
quite opposite situation.
00:39:35.22\00:39:39.94
Also I would like to
mention a little bit,
00:39:39.95\00:39:42.64
ASI work in Czechoslovak Union.
00:39:42.65\00:39:45.48
We have about 100 members,
00:39:45.49\00:39:47.76
every year we have convention
00:39:47.77\00:39:49.95
attending
approximately 1,000 people
00:39:49.96\00:39:52.96
which is about
10% of the membership
00:39:52.97\00:39:56.91
some of the Seventh-day
Adventist in our country.
00:39:56.92\00:39:59.69
And usually we supported
about 20 projects every year.
00:39:59.70\00:40:04.85
What is important this projects
00:40:04.86\00:40:06.37
brought already many or
nice numbers of baptisms.
00:40:06.38\00:40:10.59
Also in our country we
have main projects use for Jesus
00:40:10.60\00:40:13.73
and new beginnings.
00:40:13.74\00:40:16.04
And we're
preparing for 2011 in spring
00:40:16.05\00:40:19.85
some reaping campaign
together with It Is Written.
00:40:19.86\00:40:24.06
So we have lot of work
00:40:24.07\00:40:26.92
and we are asking you
for your prayers. Amen.
00:40:26.93\00:40:29.86
Thank you, Radim and Angel.
00:40:31.99\00:40:33.98
Best of luck.
00:40:33.99\00:40:35.42
And television as we know,
00:40:39.25\00:40:41.50
is one of the main mediums
by which the world will hear
00:40:41.51\00:40:45.87
about the gospel of Jesus Christ
00:40:45.88\00:40:47.83
and here we have Ron
00:40:47.84\00:40:52.28
and Marta Davis of KBLN TV.
00:40:52.29\00:40:55.21
Would you tell us
about what KBLN is and does?
00:40:55.22\00:40:59.89
Well first of all
I would like to say
00:40:59.90\00:41:01.69
we're so happy to be
here with our ASI family.
00:41:01.70\00:41:05.40
Just love it when we're here.
00:41:05.41\00:41:08.31
We really are and would be happy
00:41:08.32\00:41:09.42
to be tell you about KBLN
00:41:09.43\00:41:11.03
and we go by...KBLN are
full power station call letters,
00:41:11.04\00:41:15.99
and for television
station in Grants Pass, Oregon.
00:41:16.00\00:41:20.63
The name of our organization is
00:41:20.64\00:41:22.69
Better Life
Broadcasting Network.
00:41:22.70\00:41:24.84
And we were in Dallas
about three years ago,
00:41:24.85\00:41:30.25
introducing the idea
00:41:30.26\00:41:31.66
that we would be
purchasing a full power,
00:41:31.67\00:41:34.74
another full
power television station
00:41:34.75\00:41:36.76
in Roseburg area,
and then along with that
00:41:36.77\00:41:40.57
a low power
television station in Eugene.
00:41:40.58\00:41:43.37
And so we're
here to tell you about
00:41:43.38\00:41:45.81
the rest of the story so far.
00:41:45.82\00:41:48.25
But before we do,
00:41:48.26\00:41:49.66
we would like to
show you a short video.
00:41:49.67\00:41:52.38
Hello, Better Life family,
00:42:00.70\00:42:01.80
I'm Bart Shields,
Director of His Song Chorale
00:42:01.81\00:42:04.57
and I'm honored to be associated
00:42:04.58\00:42:06.33
with the ministry of Better
Life Broadcasting Network.
00:42:06.34\00:42:09.96
I'm blessed
today to share with you
00:42:09.97\00:42:11.53
the mighty things God has done
00:42:11.54\00:42:13.14
and is continuing to do
00:42:13.15\00:42:14.64
through His broadcast ministry.
00:42:14.65\00:42:17.35
But first, some quick history
00:42:17.36\00:42:18.60
on how it all started
some 20 plus years ago.
00:42:18.61\00:42:22.58
I remember when our founders,
00:42:22.59\00:42:23.98
Delmer & Evelyn Wagner
saw the need to have clean,
00:42:23.99\00:42:26.69
wholesome and
inspiring television programming
00:42:26.70\00:42:29.39
in Rogue Valley area
here in Southern Oregon.
00:42:29.40\00:42:32.21
Back in 1988,
00:42:32.22\00:42:33.62
they ventured
out in faith seeking
00:42:33.63\00:42:35.10
how that need
could become a reality.
00:42:35.11\00:42:37.50
But in 1990 Better
Life was on the air
00:42:37.51\00:42:39.82
with their first over
the air broadcast station
00:42:39.83\00:42:42.29
and now 16 broadcast stations
00:42:42.30\00:42:44.80
later with a 6000
square foot facility,
00:42:44.81\00:42:47.55
we reach a
potential viewing audience
00:42:47.56\00:42:49.35
of over half a million people.
00:42:49.36\00:42:51.68
Very soon we
will more than double
00:42:51.69\00:42:53.16
our potential viewing audience
00:42:53.17\00:42:55.06
to over one million
people with the accusation
00:42:55.07\00:42:57.66
of the Roseburg
full power station
00:42:57.67\00:42:59.88
and the Eugene
low power station.
00:42:59.89\00:43:03.29
By operating the
Roseburg full power station,
00:43:03.30\00:43:05.90
the federal
communications commission
00:43:05.91\00:43:07.63
requires that all cable
00:43:07.64\00:43:09.26
and satellite
providers carry a broadcast
00:43:09.27\00:43:12.18
on their basic
programming packages
00:43:12.19\00:43:14.32
in that designated market area.
00:43:14.33\00:43:16.77
This will cover
the counties of Benton,
00:43:16.78\00:43:18.67
Coos, Douglas, and Lane.
00:43:18.68\00:43:21.19
Next on the horizon is
the opportunity to triple
00:43:21.20\00:43:24.00
our potential viewing audience
00:43:24.01\00:43:25.32
to three million
people with the accusation
00:43:25.33\00:43:27.71
of a low power digital
station in the Portland area.
00:43:27.72\00:43:31.52
This station will broadcasting
00:43:31.53\00:43:33.00
to 51 conference church areas
00:43:33.01\00:43:34.83
in the counties of Washington,
00:43:34.84\00:43:36.53
Clackamas, Columbia, Multnomah,
00:43:36.54\00:43:39.13
along with Clark County
in the State of Washington.
00:43:39.14\00:43:42.39
What an evangelistic
tool to reach our neighbors
00:43:42.40\00:43:44.80
in the comfort of their home,
00:43:44.81\00:43:46.31
with the message of hope
they so desperately need.
00:43:46.32\00:43:49.56
Catch the vision of those
that have seen this ministry
00:43:49.57\00:43:51.57
flourish from the
roots of its conception.
00:43:51.58\00:43:53.65
Time is short,
00:43:53.66\00:43:55.04
invest today in
God's Kingdom building work
00:43:55.05\00:43:57.00
right here in Oregon.
00:43:57.01\00:43:59.34
Thank you very much
00:43:59.35\00:44:00.32
and may the Lord
richly bless you.
00:44:00.33\00:44:01.74
Praise the Lord.
00:44:13.42\00:44:14.39
He has been so
good to Better Life,
00:44:14.40\00:44:17.09
and actually all
of Southern Oregon
00:44:17.10\00:44:20.13
and soon to be all of Oregon.
00:44:20.14\00:44:22.05
We are, we
believe God has given us
00:44:22.06\00:44:24.72
the directive to go
ye, and into all of Oregon
00:44:24.73\00:44:28.58
and further down
into Northern California.
00:44:28.59\00:44:30.53
So we're on our
way to do just that.
00:44:30.54\00:44:33.33
We've taken Him very seriously
00:44:33.34\00:44:34.97
about that directive
00:44:34.98\00:44:36.77
and He is
providing the opportunities
00:44:36.78\00:44:38.60
to continue to go.
00:44:38.61\00:44:40.82
And I wanted to tell you
now the rest of the story
00:44:40.83\00:44:45.15
about these two
television stations.
00:44:45.16\00:44:48.98
We've been
working for three years
00:44:48.99\00:44:51.18
trying to get these stations.
00:44:51.19\00:44:52.39
We had disappoints about them.
00:44:52.40\00:44:54.31
They didn't work out real
well at one point in time,
00:44:54.32\00:44:58.14
as a matter of fact,
00:44:58.15\00:45:00.63
they were sold before
we could raise the money.
00:45:00.64\00:45:03.99
And we started
praying about those stations
00:45:04.00\00:45:07.29
and asked God to
interrupt that sale
00:45:07.30\00:45:13.66
for the sake of the people
up in those four counties.
00:45:13.67\00:45:16.70
Because they need to hear
the message of Jesus Christ,
00:45:16.71\00:45:19.43
to intervene in our behalf.
00:45:19.44\00:45:21.18
And about eight
months after that,
00:45:21.19\00:45:24.55
we got a call
from the seller there.
00:45:24.56\00:45:27.05
And he said, are you still
interested in the stations.
00:45:27.06\00:45:29.73
And we said, yes,
00:45:29.74\00:45:31.26
well to make a
long story short they...
00:45:31.27\00:45:35.07
we started off at
a $4 million price
00:45:35.08\00:45:37.73
they wanted for it.
00:45:37.74\00:45:38.71
We negotiated 2.7
then they sold it.
00:45:38.72\00:45:41.71
Then they came back
00:45:41.72\00:45:43.48
and we negotiated at
$1.9 million then we...
00:45:43.49\00:45:47.93
While we were raising the funds
00:45:47.94\00:45:49.85
the seller went bankrupt,
00:45:49.86\00:45:51.53
so we started all over again
00:45:51.54\00:45:52.81
and we negotiated $975,000.
00:45:52.82\00:45:56.20
And then as a result
we did buy it yesterday,
00:45:56.21\00:46:01.15
amen. Praise the Lord.
00:46:01.16\00:46:02.41
It closed yesterday for $900,000
00:46:02.42\00:46:05.58
another $75,000 savings.
00:46:05.59\00:46:08.92
And now we been
praying about Portland
00:46:08.93\00:46:13.57
for a long time and so we got...
00:46:13.58\00:46:18.76
I've been talking to
some people up in Portland
00:46:18.77\00:46:20.92
who have stations
00:46:20.93\00:46:21.90
and comparable
stations are the one
00:46:21.91\00:46:23.49
that we're
negotiated a price on,
00:46:23.50\00:46:26.99
are selling for $3
million or $3 million plus.
00:46:27.00\00:46:30.77
And so, that seemed
like a lot of money to us,
00:46:30.78\00:46:33.47
but we were considering it,
00:46:33.48\00:46:35.32
and out of the blue a
guy called me and said,
00:46:35.33\00:46:38.35
we've been on your website
we see what you're doing.
00:46:38.36\00:46:40.70
We believe that God is
behind this organization.
00:46:40.71\00:46:44.11
We've a television
station in Portland
00:46:44.12\00:46:47.34
and we would like
to sell it to you.
00:46:47.35\00:46:48.80
And I said, well tell me more
00:46:48.81\00:46:50.35
and he said we like to
sell it to you for $750,000.
00:46:50.36\00:46:54.39
Now that's a miracle
00:46:54.40\00:46:56.67
and that in that
market is incredible.
00:46:56.68\00:46:58.96
But he said well,
00:46:58.97\00:47:00.91
you know, since we
won't have a broker involved,
00:47:00.92\00:47:03.33
we'll sell it to
you for $700,000.
00:47:03.34\00:47:05.26
So we're on our way
to raising the funds
00:47:05.27\00:47:08.17
for that station as well.
00:47:08.18\00:47:11.47
Now we don't have a booth here,
00:47:11.48\00:47:14.33
but we do have a
relationship with Dr. Frank
00:47:14.34\00:47:18.70
and Rosalie Hurd,
they have a booth.
00:47:18.71\00:47:21.16
It's in 332, so they
know how to contact us,
00:47:21.17\00:47:25.18
they're also pledging
certain amount of money
00:47:25.19\00:47:28.93
for the Ten Talents Cookbook
00:47:28.94\00:47:32.26
that they have
toward Better Life.
00:47:32.27\00:47:34.42
So if you wanna contact us
00:47:34.43\00:47:36.16
then you can get a hold of them,
00:47:36.17\00:47:37.91
okay, in their booth.
00:47:37.92\00:47:39.71
Thank you very much.
