And you-- 00:02:13.00\00:02:14.60 I don't want to say stumbled across something 00:02:14.63\00:02:16.12 but you were involved in something 00:02:16.15\00:02:17.68 that kind of blew your mind. 00:02:17.71\00:02:20.11 Well, it really did. Yeah. 00:02:20.14\00:02:21.31 Because we have some very special guests here. 00:02:21.34\00:02:24.45 Oh, indeed we do. 00:02:24.48\00:02:25.85 And Dr. Chris and Lela Lewis, 00:02:25.88\00:02:28.77 and we just welcome you and we're so happy-- 00:02:28.80\00:02:30.66 Thank you. 00:02:30.69\00:02:32.12 And Dr. Lela, you are the head of the ASI organization 00:02:32.15\00:02:37.84 for Pacific Union, is that correct? 00:02:37.87\00:02:39.84 Correct. 00:02:39.87\00:02:40.90 And you and your husband put together 00:02:40.93\00:02:44.69 something called Pathways to Health 00:02:44.72\00:02:47.72 that happened in the cities 00:02:47.75\00:02:49.70 of San Francisco and in Oakland. 00:02:49.73\00:02:53.07 And you invited me to come, 00:02:53.10\00:02:54.38 I was just there to do a devotional and so forth. 00:02:54.41\00:02:57.00 Folks, to be perfectly honest with you, 00:02:57.03\00:02:59.87 I had no idea what they were doing 00:02:59.90\00:03:01.44 when I got there. 00:03:01.47\00:03:04.17 I mean, sincerely, they talked about 00:03:04.20\00:03:07.10 some health ministry and so forth 00:03:07.13\00:03:08.65 and I thought, well, maybe they're going 00:03:08.68\00:03:10.16 to take blood pressure on the street 00:03:10.19\00:03:11.92 or they're gonna do something like that. 00:03:11.95\00:03:14.19 Never was I so shocked 00:03:14.22\00:03:18.07 as when I drove up to the San Francisco Armory 00:03:18.10\00:03:22.76 and I saw a line going all the way down the block 00:03:22.79\00:03:28.42 of people waiting to have medical services. 00:03:28.45\00:03:32.42 When I went inside I found that 00:03:32.45\00:03:34.82 they weren't doing blood pressure, 00:03:34.85\00:03:37.07 they were doing teeth cleaning, 00:03:37.10\00:03:39.63 they were doing filling cavities to teeth. 00:03:39.66\00:03:42.49 I think there might have been a root canal or so done, 00:03:42.52\00:03:45.43 in fact I know there were. 00:03:45.46\00:03:47.04 And there was actually major surgery done 00:03:47.07\00:03:51.14 in at least on case. 00:03:51.17\00:03:53.59 But you won't call that major, 00:03:53.62\00:03:55.52 for doctor it's not major, for me it was major. 00:03:55.55\00:03:58.68 And I think it was a big sister cyst 00:03:58.71\00:04:01.08 or something that had to be removed. 00:04:01.11\00:04:03.15 I can't remember exactly what it was, 00:04:03.18\00:04:04.82 but then all of the different things 00:04:04.85\00:04:09.20 that were being done there, 00:04:09.23\00:04:11.29 and I began to study the people. 00:04:11.32\00:04:13.86 I was really amazed 00:04:13.89\00:04:14.92 because we're not talking about homeless people, 00:04:14.95\00:04:16.95 there were an occasional homeless person. 00:04:16.98\00:04:20.64 There were an occasional person 00:04:20.67\00:04:22.09 who I would say were poor people 00:04:22.12\00:04:25.74 but were not homeless. 00:04:25.77\00:04:27.98 But then the great majority were people 00:04:28.01\00:04:32.04 who had jobs but had no insurance, 00:04:32.07\00:04:35.93 they had no coverage, 00:04:35.96\00:04:37.31 particularly for dental and for eye glasses. 00:04:37.34\00:04:41.15 Those two particularly were not covered even in the policy 00:04:41.18\00:04:46.58 that they had for the folks there in California. 00:04:46.61\00:04:51.35 So these people were there because it took every dime 00:04:51.38\00:04:58.15 they could make just to keep food on the table, 00:04:58.18\00:05:02.03 to keep paying the rent, 00:05:02.06\00:05:03.91 to keep doing what they had to do 00:05:03.94\00:05:06.23 and they just continue to neglect themselves 00:05:06.26\00:05:09.30 as far as their health was concerned. 00:05:09.33\00:05:11.29 Now there are many, many people that are homeless. 00:05:11.32\00:05:16.22 We were just talking about 00:05:16.25\00:05:17.29 the homeless people in New York City, 00:05:17.32\00:05:18.88 450,000 homeless people in New York City. 00:05:18.91\00:05:23.84 That's a large city in it of itself. 00:05:23.87\00:05:26.95 Now those are not the people that come for help 00:05:26.98\00:05:28.99 because bless their hearths, they have given up on life. 00:05:29.02\00:05:32.34 They have given up on taking care of their teeth. 00:05:32.37\00:05:35.35 They have given up on seeing anything through eye glasses. 00:05:35.38\00:05:38.75 Their world looks bad enough to them as it is, 00:05:38.78\00:05:41.60 and they are not trying to take care of themselves at all. 00:05:41.63\00:05:45.98 So they are not the ones that seek this help 00:05:46.01\00:05:48.63 but it's those who fall through the cracks. 00:05:48.66\00:05:52.71 They have-- they work hard, 00:05:52.74\00:05:54.71 they are hard working good people. 00:05:54.74\00:05:56.11 They are the kind of people 00:05:56.14\00:05:57.17 you'd love to have right next to you in church, 00:05:57.20\00:06:00.68 that's the kind of people they are. 00:06:00.71\00:06:02.66 And yet they cannot afford 00:06:02.69\00:06:06.16 to get some of these medical things done. 00:06:06.19\00:06:10.13 Now there are many categories in this way 00:06:10.16\00:06:12.60 but these are mainly the people 00:06:12.63\00:06:14.48 that I talked to fell in the category 00:06:14.51\00:06:16.82 that I am talking about. 00:06:16.85\00:06:18.30 They had no coverage and just absolutely 00:06:18.33\00:06:21.48 did not have the money 00:06:21.51\00:06:23.65 that it would take to take care of some of these things. 00:06:23.68\00:06:27.25 Now while we were there 00:06:27.28\00:06:29.23 they did a short video about what took place. 00:06:29.26\00:06:33.41 Next day, by the way it was Oakland-Alameda Coliseum, 00:06:33.44\00:06:37.03 and again thousands turned away. 00:06:37.06\00:06:39.45 I mean, what 2,000 people at least turned away 00:06:39.48\00:06:42.28 that they could not treat 00:06:42.31\00:06:44.56 and they had all of these booths setup, 00:06:44.59\00:06:48.57 all these places setup, tremendous medical care. 00:06:48.60\00:06:52.04 Now we're gonna tell you that 00:06:52.07\00:06:53.53 this is gonna be repeated again in San Antonio. 00:06:53.56\00:06:55.77 We're gonna talk about that a little later on 00:06:55.80\00:06:58.02 but I am just giving you the background 00:06:58.05\00:07:00.17 of where all this got started and folks, 00:07:00.20\00:07:03.70 this is one of the most exciting things 00:07:03.73\00:07:06.20 I have ever seen. Amen. 00:07:06.23\00:07:08.95 It is truly reaching out 00:07:08.98\00:07:11.64 with the right arm of the message. 00:07:11.67\00:07:13.73 Amen. Yes. 00:07:13.76\00:07:14.79 And giving it to people. 00:07:14.82\00:07:17.11 Not charge, you know, plus-- 00:07:17.14\00:07:19.80 You know, we had a lot of Adventist hospitals, 00:07:19.83\00:07:21.40 I've been in some of them, 00:07:21.43\00:07:22.90 not one of them treated me free, 00:07:22.93\00:07:24.91 I am gonna say you that. 00:07:24.94\00:07:26.76 And by the way, 00:07:26.79\00:07:29.45 I was in a Methodist hospital one time, 00:07:29.48\00:07:31.19 they didn't treat me free either. 00:07:31.22\00:07:32.51 I was in a Catholic hospital one time 00:07:32.54\00:07:34.28 and they didn't treat-- 00:07:34.31\00:07:35.55 By the way, I was born in a Methodist hospital 00:07:35.58\00:07:37.62 and they charged for that. 00:07:37.65\00:07:39.28 So denominational hospitals have a way of charging 00:07:39.31\00:07:43.30 and when I went to those hospitals 00:07:43.33\00:07:45.22 I never was tempted to become a part of their church. 00:07:45.25\00:07:48.81 But when somebody starts to reach out 00:07:48.84\00:07:53.13 with an interest in your health it makes people stop 00:07:53.16\00:07:59.69 and think and that's what 00:07:59.72\00:08:01.81 Pathways to Health is all about. 00:08:01.84\00:08:04.95 It's reaching out to people, helping them 00:08:04.98\00:08:07.91 and then also helping them spiritually. 00:08:07.94\00:08:11.52 Now we're gonna go to this video right now 00:08:11.55\00:08:13.78 so you can get a little background 00:08:13.81\00:08:16.12 of what took place in San Francisco and in Oakland, 00:08:16.15\00:08:19.82 and then we'll come back and talk about San Antonio 00:08:19.85\00:08:23.24 and how you can be involved in San Antonio. 00:08:23.27\00:08:27.94 The line began forming 20 hours 00:08:54.69\00:08:56.71 before the doors were scheduled to open. 00:08:56.74\00:08:59.49 Residents have the Bay Area eager to be the first in line 00:08:59.52\00:09:02.66 to receive free medical and dental services. 00:09:02.69\00:09:06.06 Spent the night anticipating relief 00:09:06.09\00:09:08.03 with the coming of the dawn, 00:09:08.06\00:09:10.06 they came with pain, they came with questions, 00:09:10.09\00:09:13.85 they came to bring a friend or relative in desperate need. 00:09:13.88\00:09:18.95 By the time the doors opened thousands had gathered 00:09:18.98\00:09:21.64 in both San Francisco and Oakland, California, 00:09:21.67\00:09:25.21 for the Bridges to Health medical 00:09:25.24\00:09:26.70 and dental clinics which promised 00:09:26.73\00:09:29.06 free of charge services on a first come first serve basis. 00:09:29.09\00:09:34.19 Organized by the Western U.S. 00:09:34.22\00:09:35.90 Chapter of Adventist Services and Industries or ASI, 00:09:35.93\00:09:40.07 the unprecedented event included the involvement 00:09:40.10\00:09:42.63 and partnership 00:09:42.66\00:09:44.10 of the Seventh-day Adventist Church 00:09:44.13\00:09:45.68 in both central and northern California, 00:09:45.71\00:09:48.46 the church's Pacific Area Union Headquarters, 00:09:48.49\00:09:51.62 the office of the mayor 00:09:51.65\00:09:52.68 in both San Francisco and Oakland, 00:09:52.71\00:09:55.32 the Department of Health and other civic ministry 00:09:55.35\00:09:57.99 and health-related organizations. 00:09:58.02\00:10:01.77 Over a three-day period close to 500 healthcare professionals 00:10:01.80\00:10:05.49 and volunteer staff worked tirelessly 00:10:05.52\00:10:08.98 to provide dozens of medical 00:10:09.01\00:10:10.51 and dental services to close to 3,000 local residents. 00:10:10.54\00:10:15.20 Volunteers, most of whom are the members 00:10:15.23\00:10:17.98 of the Seventh-day Adventist Church 00:10:18.01\00:10:20.39 came from all parts of North America, 00:10:20.42\00:10:22.98 some even from as far as Saudi Arabia, 00:10:23.01\00:10:26.19 driven by a spirit of service 00:10:26.22\00:10:28.23 and the desire to meet the tangible needs 00:10:28.26\00:10:30.28 of those who would come. 00:10:30.31\00:10:35.26 The clinics were organized into specific service areas 00:10:35.29\00:10:38.70 each with its team of specialized healthcare 00:10:38.73\00:10:40.92 professionals and trained volunteers. 00:10:40.95\00:10:44.11 Patients were registered, triaged efficiently 00:10:44.14\00:10:47.04 and escorted to the proper area by hospitality volunteers. 00:10:47.07\00:10:51.72 Waiting areas were set up near each service area 00:10:51.75\00:10:54.62 as patients who waited personalize care. 00:10:54.65\00:10:58.97 The services offered were comprehensive by 00:10:59.00\00:11:01.05 any standards considering that the clinics 00:11:01.08\00:11:03.52 were housed in multipurpose venues. 00:11:03.55\00:11:07.12 Using high-end technology, 00:11:07.15\00:11:09.18 highly-skilled dental professionals provided crowns, 00:11:09.21\00:11:12.34 fillings, extractions, cleanings 00:11:12.37\00:11:15.16 and necessary root canals meanwhile on-site technicians 00:11:15.19\00:11:20.32 insure that the equipment was well maintained 00:11:20.35\00:11:22.64 and available at all times. 00:11:22.67\00:11:26.31 Close by patients received eye care services 00:11:26.34\00:11:29.65 including vision testing and free glasses. 00:11:29.68\00:11:32.74 One patient with tears in her eyes explained 00:11:32.77\00:11:35.49 how she would no longer need the large magnifying glass 00:11:35.52\00:11:38.85 she had carried around in order to read. 00:11:38.88\00:11:42.72 In yet another area, residents were able 00:11:42.75\00:11:44.52 to visit one on one with primary care physicians 00:11:44.55\00:11:47.94 who consulted with patience 00:11:47.97\00:11:49.24 and diagnosed a number of concerns. 00:11:49.27\00:11:52.37 Specialized medical services 00:11:52.40\00:11:54.02 were also available including pediatrics, 00:11:54.05\00:11:56.97 OBGYN, STD and HIV screening, 00:11:57.00\00:12:01.43 medical massage, physical therapy, 00:12:01.46\00:12:04.47 X -rays and laboratory services. 00:12:04.50\00:12:08.11 Perhaps the most dramatic example 00:12:08.14\00:12:10.42 of the diversity of services offered 00:12:10.45\00:12:12.79 was the general surgery including 00:12:12.82\00:12:15.22 an operation performed on a patient 00:12:15.25\00:12:17.69 in order to take out a lipoma, the size of a grapefruit. 00:12:17.72\00:12:23.25 And yet it seems by the event organizers 00:12:23.28\00:12:25.35 led by ASI's doctor Lela Lewis 00:12:25.38\00:12:28.55 that the Bridges to Health experience 00:12:28.58\00:12:30.14 could and should be even broader. 00:12:30.17\00:12:33.23 In addition to personalized and professional healthcare 00:12:33.26\00:12:36.02 patients were offered a variety 00:12:36.05\00:12:37.87 of live musical performances as they waited. 00:12:37.90\00:12:40.84 School choir's smaller ensemble, 00:12:40.87\00:12:43.98 solos and instrumentals filled the venues 00:12:44.01\00:12:46.39 as Bay Area residents who awaited treatment. 00:12:46.42\00:12:49.50 Patients also had the opportunity 00:12:49.53\00:12:51.13 to take advantage of chaplaincy services 00:12:51.16\00:12:53.68 and those who were there over lunch time 00:12:53.71\00:12:55.91 were offered a free nutritious meal. 00:12:55.94\00:12:59.00 In the end, over five million dollars 00:12:59.03\00:13:01.08 in healthcare was given to nearly 3,000 residents 00:13:01.11\00:13:04.69 of the Bay Area by close 00:13:04.72\00:13:06.71 to 500 service oriented professionals and staff. 00:13:06.74\00:13:11.54 Those could and should be considered 00:13:11.57\00:13:13.81 tremendously successful results 00:13:13.84\00:13:16.92 and yet perhaps the greater results 00:13:16.95\00:13:19.63 for the intangible ones. 00:13:19.66\00:13:21.88 The effects on the lives of those who returned home 00:13:21.91\00:13:24.98 and to their communities with less pain 00:13:25.01\00:13:27.70 and more hope and that is a purpose 00:13:27.73\00:13:31.07 worth pursuing and a story worth telling. 00:13:31.10\00:13:36.40 Well, that was an exciting time. 00:14:00.23\00:14:01.75 And, C.A., you know, Pathways to Health 00:14:01.78\00:14:05.23 grew out of this Building Bridges project 00:14:05.26\00:14:08.13 which is a part of the Pacific Union outreach 00:14:08.16\00:14:11.22 and it was just fantastic to see 00:14:11.25\00:14:15.17 the Northern California Conference 00:14:15.20\00:14:17.32 and the Central California Conference 00:14:17.35\00:14:21.28 along with all of the Pacific Union 00:14:21.31\00:14:24.37 that were present there working together 00:14:24.40\00:14:27.70 in this great evangelistic outreach. 00:14:27.73\00:14:30.37 And one of the things is I really appreciate 00:14:30.40\00:14:32.83 the fact that they are not being selfish 00:14:32.86\00:14:35.48 with this program, they've said, 00:14:35.51\00:14:37.22 we want to see it go around the world 00:14:37.25\00:14:39.23 and they are defiantly supporting 00:14:39.26\00:14:42.94 the use of it in San Antonio. 00:14:42.97\00:14:45.09 Now that's where the story goes now 00:14:45.12\00:14:47.98 and Dr. Lena, I am gonna go to you. 00:14:48.01\00:14:49.76 Tell us about San Antonio, would you? 00:14:49.79\00:14:52.22 Well, you know, the Lord really blessed us 00:14:52.25\00:14:54.26 as you saw in the Bay Area and about a year ago, 00:14:54.29\00:14:57.43 actually it was two months 00:14:57.46\00:14:58.61 before the actual Bridges to Health event 00:14:58.64\00:15:01.72 I got a phone call from our good friend, 00:15:01.75\00:15:03.35 Dwayne McKay from the South West Union Conference, 00:15:03.38\00:15:05.56 he said, hey, you know the General Conference 00:15:05.59\00:15:07.75 is coming here in July. 00:15:07.78\00:15:09.50 Would you come to San Antonio 00:15:09.53\00:15:11.75 and give back to the citizens of San Antonio similar 00:15:11.78\00:15:15.13 to what you're doing in the Bay Area? 00:15:15.16\00:15:17.16 So we prayed about it and we said okay, we'll go. 00:15:17.19\00:15:20.78 And by God's grace he's done some pretty amazing things. 00:15:20.81\00:15:24.69 Walk us through because Costin said, 00:15:24.72\00:15:28.33 in the voice over that this is-- 00:15:28.36\00:15:30.06 Really it is unprecedented and it is one of a kind. 00:15:30.09\00:15:33.22 We haven't done anything like this 00:15:33.25\00:15:34.83 where we impact an entire city for the Lord. 00:15:34.86\00:15:37.83 Never on this-- 00:15:37.86\00:15:38.90 On this scale. 00:15:38.93\00:15:40.36 I mean, this is not taking blood pressures. 00:15:40.39\00:15:42.16 No, no. This is major stuff. 00:15:42.19\00:15:45.25 Miracles have happened. 00:15:45.28\00:15:47.63 Tell us about the Alamodome and the size of this project 00:15:47.66\00:15:51.23 because we didn't really know doctor and doctor, 00:15:51.26\00:15:54.57 how big this thing until we met with few 00:15:54.60\00:15:56.60 just there in San Antonio several days ago 00:15:56.63\00:15:58.40 but this is huge. 00:15:58.43\00:15:59.82 And the impact is huge 00:15:59.85\00:16:00.97 and the effect of course will be huge. 00:16:01.00\00:16:03.09 Well, let me take you back times to the beginning. 00:16:03.12\00:16:05.15 It really actually came out 00:16:05.18\00:16:06.64 of what God did in Oakland in San Francisco. 00:16:06.67\00:16:09.77 So after we got this invitation to come to San Antonio 00:16:09.80\00:16:13.58 we obviously needed to make inroads with the city, RMO, 00:16:13.61\00:16:16.68 if you will, 00:16:16.71\00:16:17.75 is we like to collaborate with the city officials. 00:16:17.78\00:16:20.30 We feel like the more we collaborate together 00:16:20.33\00:16:23.11 the more we can be sort of unify, 00:16:23.14\00:16:25.00 they can see us as Christians 00:16:25.03\00:16:26.87 that want to help their citizens 00:16:26.90\00:16:28.40 as opposed to maybe some other impression. 00:16:28.43\00:16:31.39 So we didn't know how to make an inroad in to San Antonio. 00:16:31.42\00:16:34.27 Well, Mr. Paul Cobb, 00:16:34.30\00:16:35.85 he's a Seventh-day Adventist businessman 00:16:35.88\00:16:37.54 who actually helped us with Oakland 00:16:37.57\00:16:39.49 made a call to San Antonio and Dr. Chris, 00:16:39.52\00:16:41.61 what happened from there? 00:16:41.64\00:16:43.16 Well, he got us in with the Mayor in San Antonio 00:16:43.19\00:16:46.83 and we went down and met with his whole staff 00:16:46.86\00:16:50.56 and we told him, you know, what we wanted to do 00:16:50.59\00:16:53.87 and how well things had going and God had blessed really, 00:16:53.90\00:16:57.11 and give God the credit in the Bay Area, 00:16:57.14\00:16:59.47 and they said, well, what can we do for you? 00:16:59.50\00:17:01.49 How can we help? 00:17:01.52\00:17:02.55 We said we need a venue, 00:17:02.58\00:17:03.62 and they said, how about the Alamodome? 00:17:03.65\00:17:06.13 They gave us the Alamodome. 00:17:06.16\00:17:07.60 Now when they said that, 00:17:07.63\00:17:08.66 I felt well, I mean, the Alamodome. 00:17:08.69\00:17:10.03 I mean, what do I know about the Alamodome, you know? 00:17:10.06\00:17:12.44 We'll come to find out it's a 169,000 square feet, 00:17:12.47\00:17:15.44 and that's just the floor space that 00:17:15.47\00:17:17.06 doesn't include all the rooms. 00:17:17.09\00:17:18.84 It's huge, it's gigantual. 00:17:18.87\00:17:20.66 In fact, it's where the General Conference session 00:17:20.69\00:17:22.57 is going to be held in July. 00:17:22.60\00:17:24.86 So Mayor Castro who was the mayor at the time 00:17:24.89\00:17:27.74 gave us through his office the use of the Alamodome. 00:17:27.77\00:17:31.18 Well, things you know, the Lord did His work 00:17:31.21\00:17:33.83 but you know, we kind of ran a Great Controversy war 00:17:33.86\00:17:36.01 so things didn't continue in super smooth mode 00:17:36.04\00:17:39.23 if you will, and right after he gave it to us 00:17:39.26\00:17:42.41 he was called to Housing in Urban Development in-- 00:17:42.44\00:17:45.72 Under the Whitehouse. 00:17:45.75\00:17:46.79 So he left for that, him and all his staff 00:17:46.82\00:17:49.55 and so now the new mayorship didn't know 00:17:49.58\00:17:52.06 what we had been previously offered. 00:17:52.09\00:17:54.36 So back to square one? 00:17:54.39\00:17:56.37 Back to square one but God overruled. 00:17:56.40\00:17:59.18 God overruled and we got the Alamodome back. 00:17:59.21\00:18:01.71 So we were actually not only given 00:18:01.74\00:18:03.58 the Alamodome at that point 00:18:03.61\00:18:04.76 but the convention center as well, 00:18:04.79\00:18:06.33 the Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center. 00:18:06.36\00:18:08.12 Now, Jim, that's a dome stadium, 00:18:08.15\00:18:09.64 that's not-- that's a major, 00:18:09.67\00:18:11.48 major feet for the cause of Christ. 00:18:11.51\00:18:13.93 It absolutely is. 00:18:13.96\00:18:15.40 And it's going to be a fabulous place 00:18:15.43\00:18:18.22 for General Conference. 00:18:18.25\00:18:19.60 I know that San Antonio is known for not being-- 00:18:19.63\00:18:23.09 it's not cool in the summer time, 00:18:23.12\00:18:26.29 I can assure you that. But it is also-- 00:18:26.32\00:18:31.00 There are some pleasant evenings, 00:18:31.03\00:18:32.91 you'll have some really pleasant evenings. 00:18:32.94\00:18:35.46 So people are gonna want to stay inside during the day 00:18:35.49\00:18:38.66 and that's great for GC session. 00:18:38.69\00:18:41.56 Now in April when we were there, 00:18:41.59\00:18:44.24 the weather should be perfect. 00:18:44.27\00:18:46.34 And that's what we're waiting on. 00:18:46.37\00:18:47.87 Yeah.
