Murray 01:12 and thank you once again for sharing 01:13 just a little of your day with us. 01:16 And we've got a really great program 01:18 to share with you today. 01:20 Our good friend David Canther is back 01:21 and we always are very, very please 01:23 and happy to have David with us. 01:24 Good to see you, man. 01:26 Praise God and glad to be back. 01:27 Yeah, his ministry ACTS has grown exponentially there 01:31 I say since when last you're here. 01:33 You're on collage compass is now. 01:35 You're an adjunct professor teaching some of the things 01:38 that God has given you 01:41 as part your spiritual legacy there I say. 01:44 And I need to sort of work my way through this before 01:47 we introduce our young people because ACTS 01:50 is the corporate title of the ministry. 01:54 Define for me what is Global Rapid Rescue Relief? 01:59 That's a very good question. 02:00 God is truly expanded the ministry. 02:03 Yeah, that patch was isn't there last time. 02:04 It was ACTS, that's a new patch 02:06 you got on your shoulder. 02:07 So ACTS World Relief is our non-profit foundation 02:10 that helps fund our deployments. 02:12 I see. When people give contributions. 02:14 Because we're not funded by any other entity 02:17 or the church or whatever. 02:18 And so GR3 is a new division that has to do 02:22 with our first responders of which Heritage Academy 02:25 is actually have trained a first response group 02:28 along with many other adults and as you mentioned 02:31 even doctors taking a special fellowship 02:34 from Harvard University through what they called 02:37 the Beth Israel concept 02:39 of Disaster Management and Emergency Response. 02:43 So I take out a lot of people under the GR3, 02:47 Global Rapid Rescue and Relief so that means 02:49 first responder and our training division. 02:52 So then thirdly the other division we broken it down 02:55 to into now is actually all our equipment like our, 02:59 mobile kitchens, we can feed 50,000 meals a day. 03:02 Trying to specialize though in vegetarian, vegan meals, 03:06 Kosher diabetic meals, so that's rescue 03:09 or you will see that name on a lot of our kitchens now. 03:11 So that's a separate division of equipment. 03:13 Yeah, I'm looking at your business-card this is 03:15 one of the more crowded business-card that 03:17 I've ever seen because you've got so many facets 03:20 to your ministry 03:21 and they all represented on this one card. 03:23 So well done David, and God is blessing you to move 03:25 into other areas obviously and the fact that you're taking 03:28 and training doctors. 03:29 Who don't I suspect get a lot of training 03:32 in disaster response, 03:35 that's not part of the curriculum 03:36 as I know it to be, so you really introducing them 03:39 to a whole new area of service 03:40 that they can use through out their lives. 03:42 So well done. 03:43 Now we get to introduce our handsome young man 03:48 and lovely young lady from Heritage Academy. 03:51 And-- we-- this is a second of two programs 03:53 that we've done with them. 03:54 And again I'm so very, very impressed that Heritage 03:58 has seen fit to partner with you and with FEMA 04:01 and other agencies to train the young people 04:03 to do something that can really be a benefit 04:05 for the rest of their lives. 04:07 Really, really great. 04:09 First let's say, we've got Laura Sutton. 04:11 Hi, Laura, how are you? 04:12 Hi, I'm doing very good. How about you? 04:14 Well, Laura, where are you from? 04:15 I'm originally form Michigan, right now I live at Tennessee. 04:18 My parents are actually working at Heritage Academy, 04:21 so I'm a staff kid. 04:22 Very-- a staff kid, yeah, I remember that before. 04:25 And Kevin Singh. Kevin, how are you? 04:27 Yes, sir. I'm well. Praise the Lord. 04:28 You are from? 04:29 I'm from Greeneville, Tennessee. 04:30 Greeneville, Tennessee. Yes. 04:31 You are not to too far away. 04:32 Yeah, but two hours from Minneapolis. 04:34 Great great. 04:36 Adventist home both of you I suspect. 04:38 Let me ask you this question, 04:41 it is one thing and it will make a great assumption here, 04:45 it is one thing grow up in an Adventist home. 04:47 Growing up in an Adventist home dose it make you Adventist, 04:50 doest it necessarily make you Christian 04:52 and does it make you one with Christ. 04:56 Yet in just observing you, I think you have 04:59 a working relationship with Jesus. 05:01 When did that happen for you personally? 05:03 Not fall out from your parents or go on a Church, 05:06 when did you come to know Christ for yourself. 05:09 Me or Kevin? 05:11 Let's go with you, ladies first. Okay. 05:14 Well, actually you know, like you said, you know, 05:16 I been raised in the Adventist church, 05:17 so you know, knowing other belief and actually like 05:19 separating what you believe form what your parents believe 05:21 and that probably happened for me 05:24 significantly my first year at Heritage Academy, 05:26 I came here as a freshman I'm now junior. 05:28 And just experiencing a different side of Adventism 05:32 that I hadn't really seen which is more of an active 05:34 serving part of Adventism and that really encouraged me 05:37 in my relationship with Christ. 05:39 Also we had a couple of guest speakers that came in 05:42 and just actually realizing you know, 05:44 what it ment to these people to have a personal 05:46 relationship with Jesus made me want it 05:48 and want to experience it. 05:49 Well, said. Kevin? 05:51 Well, this is my first year at Heritage, 05:54 I also a junior but when I was a freshmen 05:57 in my last school I decided to make decision for Lord 06:01 just seeing and I actually started paying attention 06:05 to sermons, I actually seeing how our God's love for me. 06:11 And that's when I made decision to be baptized 06:13 and also being here at Heritage which is my first year, 06:17 its actually helping strengthen my relationship 06:19 also because, seeing we had guest-- we've guest speakers 06:22 and the spiritual aspect there has also 06:24 really helped also. 06:27 This is going to be a very much a hands on show 06:31 and tell kind of a show but I want to ask you just 06:33 one request before I get back you David because Laura, 06:36 you alluded us something that I talked 06:38 with some other Heritage students on another program 06:44 and that is that doing hands on, 06:48 helping people in a very real intangible way 06:50 does something to strengthen your relationship, 06:54 you faith, expound on that just a little bit for me. 06:56 Well, it does and when you're sharing 06:58 what you know, you get to know it better 07:02 because in order to share with someone you have to your stuff. 07:04 You know, so when you're trying to share Christ 07:06 to someone you get to know Christ better 07:08 because how can you share something 07:09 you don't know yourself? 07:10 Yeah, yeah. 07:11 How can you give something to someone else 07:12 when you haven't yourself experienced? 07:14 Could I just interject? 07:15 Laura is probably one our best training-- 07:19 she is a train the trainer in many other things 07:21 which you're gonna see. 07:22 One aspect I'll throw her a little curve that she does 07:25 really well at is training in physiological first aid 07:28 emotional and spiritual care. 07:29 So beyond the technical she is always trying to train 07:33 this holistic package of meeting the persons 07:37 spiritual needs asking the right questions. 07:40 So my name David and your name is? 07:42 Laura. 07:43 And so Laura has role-played this with many students around 07:47 the country asking the right questions ultimately getting 07:50 to that spiritual center of how can she pray with them, 07:54 a pray of blessing. 07:56 And so that's a great dynamic part of the training 07:59 which she has learnt to share Christ. 08:00 Yeah. Yeah. 08:01 So part of your growth in Christ has been putting legs 08:05 on the things you kind of learn in class. 08:07 They can actually practical in the real world. 08:11 Yeah, same with you, Kevin? 08:12 Yeah. Yeah. 08:14 Okay, excellent. 08:15 Now let's swing it back to you David, 08:18 because obviously you developed a close working 08:20 relationship with this school and you seen 08:24 this I guess in real time that when people go out 08:27 and serve it does something to build 08:28 that who they are in Jesus. 08:29 Amen. Yeah. 08:31 And Laura and Kevin both and many other students 08:34 form Heritage are prime examples 08:36 that we have used them so much, so many times training, 08:40 we're gonna talk about in New York more they were 08:43 training together with about 11 different schools there 08:47 and 17 Bermuda all over the North East. 08:51 And then most recently several weeks ago down 08:53 to Orlando where they're training seven more 08:55 academies from around the Southern Union, 08:57 we're meeting the South Eastern part of the United States. 09:01 So to watch these students grown in Christ, 09:03 their confidence, their leadership abilities, 09:06 only happens when we empower them with the right skills, 09:10 the techniques, the things that help them to catch 09:13 the vision and then I mentor them to become those 09:16 excellent leaders which as a beautiful thing 09:19 develops their spirituality. 09:21 Yeah, yeah. 09:22 I see there is a direct connection with labor 09:25 for the Lord and relationship to the Lord. 09:27 That's right. They are linked. 09:28 And so you guys, are actually training people 09:31 all over North America certainly 09:32 and maybe and beyond. 09:35 How is it feel to be in that capacity to train 09:37 others to learn this stuff? 09:39 Yeah, it is a great honor to be able to go to these 09:42 different places and teach these people because 09:46 they, you know, we became the experts to teach them 09:50 to make help them to become the experts 09:52 and seeing that has helped us also. 09:56 Yeah, just out of curiosity, excuse me, 09:58 what do you want to do vocationally Laura, 10:01 for your, you know, for rest of your life? 10:03 Actually I'm going to go into teaching, 10:05 education and social worker. 10:07 Okay, she kind of reminds me of a teacher 10:09 all that you know, like a college professor 10:12 kind of, you know, kind of professor. 10:13 Kevin? 10:15 I like engineering and work with my hands 10:16 and also at Heritage we do have the flight program 10:19 and I do like airplanes so I was think like 10:21 maybe an aerospace engineer would be a cool occupation. 10:24 Yeah. 10:25 David, when you go out in response to 10:29 and your ministry unlike address 10:30 some other ministries is particularly 10:32 in response to disaster as supposed 10:35 to sort of long term digging wells and kind of things. 10:37 You are there for disaster relief. 10:41 How many have you been out on? 10:43 About 100 deployments through out the world. 10:46 So the Philippians responses one of the 3ABN has showed 10:49 many times as some of the viewers may recall, 10:52 but bringing in a lot of doctors of course, 10:54 the Haiti response we brought in 7,500 responders 10:58 within the first six months. 11:01 So we're known for training and then deploying 11:04 with safety and those techniques that are correct. 11:06 Would you like to see maybe just three little pictures 11:08 of a recent deployment right in Tennessee were heritage is? 11:13 So three quick pictures that helps illustrate they were 11:16 responding, Heritage is responded to about 11:19 34 deployments. 11:21 This one was in their backyard. 11:23 And so just three quick slides that helps show pictures. 11:28 Here is Laura, right out there in the road directing traffic. 11:31 I didn't recognize you with a hood on. 11:33 Okay. 11:34 Actually those students from Heritage used our chainsaw 11:37 trailer to-- the adults were doing the chain sawing 11:41 and the youth were removing it. 11:42 They cleared six miles of highway in about six hours. 11:45 That's incredible. 11:46 The next one shows distribution, 11:48 they actually were in charge of running the emergency 11:51 warehouse, distributing emergency supplies 11:54 and the next picture shows the kitchen in action, 11:57 this kitchen is one of an example. 11:59 Now it's one thing to cook when its warm out side. 12:02 Yeah. 12:03 But Heritage wanted that continued opportunity 12:06 to cook in nine degree weather. 12:09 And so now they are cooking 100s of meals for each meal 12:12 when your propane tanks are freezing, 12:14 all of your pipes are bursting, 12:16 but they overcame it, that's flexibility. 12:18 It's adapting to the situation and they truly gained 12:21 the respect of their leaders in their community 12:24 who wondered what they are all about. 12:26 But now saw them in action and doing a plurality of ways 12:30 that helped their community be able to recover 12:34 from that terrible storm. 12:35 Yeah, yeah. 12:37 Takes just a minute Laura and Kevin, 12:39 at the end of the day you've been working all day, 12:41 you're tired, you're hot, I don't say sweaty 12:43 but that didn't fit in this particular maybe it someone 12:47 about here, but you're tired, 12:48 you are hot you serve how do you feel as you accept 12:52 a call in a bed at night? 12:53 What's going on your head? How do you feel? 12:55 How does that level of service make you feel? 13:01 I know for some people, you know, 13:02 can be overwhelming you know, it can wear you out, 13:04 but at the same time it gives you a sense of being 13:07 needed in your community, and that's really empowering 13:11 to feel like you have a role to play in not only helping 13:15 their physical needs but also being able 13:16 to direct them to Christ. 13:18 Yeah, because normally we would go on-- on the road, 13:22 some where to a and we be there for a week 13:23 but this one is in own backyard and we are in there 13:25 for actually two weeks, and then we had 13:28 our spring break right after and but it would-- 13:30 it did take a toll on the body 13:32 because we are working all day and early in the morning 13:36 and physical work and we do get tired and moral goes-- 13:39 gets down a little but trusting the Lord 13:42 is one thing that our teachers 13:48 and our deans helped us 13:50 to when we have our worships 13:52 to really focus on that also, yeah. 13:56 Yeah, excellent. Did you feel? Did you sense? 14:00 Were you aware of any increase relationship 14:03 or friendliness or acceptance by the community 14:06 once you had sort of rolled up your sleeves and got busy? 14:11 Did it change relationship between the school 14:13 and the community? 14:14 Oh, yes, because we were actually-- when the people-- 14:17 when we go out and there 14:18 and we actually talk with people 14:19 in the community, they be like 14:20 oh, you're from Heritage Academy 14:21 because now everyone knows us now, 14:23 and it also was a great witnessing opportunity 14:26 because, where you had the distribution center we would be 14:30 carrying boxes out to peoples cars with their food 14:32 and actually had the opportunity talk with 14:34 some other people and there also 14:36 they're talk about God and they would be more open 14:38 because of what's happened to them. 14:41 We might just expand a little bit where you are 14:43 going there even Elder Wilson, 14:44 the president of the General Conference 14:46 went out with me and others students 14:48 from Bass Academy two years 14:51 after Katrina had hit and longer 14:54 and we held some special meetings 14:56 that we are offering at Bass Academy. 14:57 We would knock on the door and would say, you know, 15:00 I don't know if you remember but several years ago 15:02 we were here in your community helping distributing 15:04 emergency supplies. 15:05 We just like to invite you to a special series 15:08 of you know, seminar that we are 15:09 having there at the academy in the church. 15:11 We're wondering if you would like to come. 15:13 We were signing up family after family, 15:15 because Jesus loved to meet the needs of people first, 15:18 then the hearts were opened. 15:20 Elder Wilson said, wow, this is powerful evangelism. 15:24 It's better than sending out fliers. 15:26 Oh, very much so. 15:27 It's better than trying to meet people 15:28 that you have never known. 15:29 This is what builds up confidence in you community 15:32 and that they are willing to listen 15:34 who is Heritage Academy. 15:35 Yeah, yeah, I think we first got to know you 15:37 during the Bass Academy, you are in Katrina 15:40 and we sort of developed that friendship 15:42 and you been here several times 15:43 since but as I said, before your ministry 15:45 has grown exponentially and God has blessed. 15:48 I want to do something real quick little commercial 15:50 for you, David. 15:51 Because you got two books "First Response, 15:55 Change Your World Through Acts of Love," 15:57 and I think that's fabulous, 15:59 acts of love and then you have this in Spanish also. 16:02 Yes. Primeros Auxilios. Yes. 16:05 Yeah, my wife would be very ashamed of me. 16:07 Well, a lot of the training which actually we do 16:09 is in a lot of Central and South American countries. 16:13 So the Spanish one comes in very helpful and our growing 16:15 population in the US, but I was in Mexico 16:18 just a few weeks ago training 400 master guides, 16:22 they were gonna talk about in a moment. 16:23 But the beautiful thing is when we could be able to 16:26 give them tools that help them power them 16:29 to help go back and create the enthusiasm in their days 16:32 so their churches can grow in their community. 16:35 Praise the Christ. 16:36 When you trained, our churches groups that you go 16:39 to are they generally very receptive? 16:41 Do they see how this is an opening door 16:44 to almost any kind of evangelism 16:45 you want to do. 16:46 You kind of put legs on you faith 16:48 and you go to the streets and then people are 16:50 so much more accepted. 16:51 Do you get that as you go around? 16:54 I was a pastor for 32 years, primarily in Florida. 16:57 We did a lot of creative evangelism 16:58 but then I started doing more in emergency 17:01 response training. 17:02 Since I do that full time now, 17:04 it is exciting to me the fulfillment 17:06 which is see in not only younger youth 17:09 but older young adult, 17:11 individuals they go wow, that is something 17:15 that I can be able to use the talents that God 17:18 has given to me to go out and train others 17:21 and it leads to emotional and spiritual care. 17:24 It's a wonderful tool that God is using in the last days 17:27 because there are more and more natural disasters happening. 17:31 And God says, get prepared now. 17:33 And as we prepare them and they get in equipped 17:36 it's tremendous to see the multiplication of our adults 17:41 and youth around the world saying, 17:43 that's something I can do to help people now. 17:45 Yeah, yeah, what exciting about this, 17:47 as you look at the prophetic landscape this kind of thing 17:51 is gonna be happening more and more. 17:52 That's right. So the need is gonna increase. 17:54 You know, as and the fact that you are getting 17:56 young people, particularly millennia's involved 17:59 who we are-- people are saying, entitled and they have this 18:03 entitled thing that they are saying yeah, 18:05 we want to serve, you know, we want to get our hands dirty, 18:08 we want to get in there and help and lift up 18:10 in the name of Jesus. 18:11 And the fact that they are-- they are excited 18:13 so it excites someone like me because you see, 18:15 that the torch is being passed 18:16 to a group of young people who really care. 18:18 And I'm sure you see that on a daily basis. 18:20 Really is. 18:21 Let me show you just a few quick little pictures 18:23 of some training and then we are gonna put you 18:25 on the spot and I'm gonna ask Laura 18:27 she could train to train you and on the spot 18:29 on saving the infants life. 18:32 All right? Okay. 18:33 All right, so just a couple of quick pictures 18:35 that shows some training. 18:36 Here they are showing 18:37 the very infant that you see here. 18:38 This was in Mexico, just last week training 18:41 400 master guides, another illustration shows 18:45 some of the simulation training. 18:47 Once that you have done a lot of the training 18:49 of the technical then we want to train them in things like 18:52 you see here, here is a guy caught under a vehicle. 18:55 We want them to apply the techniques 18:57 that they have learnt. 18:58 The next picture shows another illustration 19:01 of Heritage doing some of the moulage 19:03 we call the makeup in French so that it's very real to them. 19:08 They are going to acted out and they must perform 19:10 the techniques they have learnt very well. 19:12 So that gives you just a little idea of you know, 19:14 some of the training that takes place 19:17 and some of the master guides around the world 19:19 that and adults that we've trained 19:20 around the world. 19:21 You know, it occurs to me that's almost-- 19:23 that's a perfect place to start with pathfinder department 19:26 and mater guides. 19:29 Not only just to get an honor but to get skills 19:31 that you can use in life, life skills, you know, 19:34 kind of thing really, really great. 19:36 They love it. I'm ready. 19:37 Are you ready? Yeah, let's go to work. 19:38 Okay, so we're gonna ask Laura to take the lead on this 19:41 and can you teach C.A., how to save this infants life. 19:44 Well, let me try. Yeah. 19:45 Okay, so-- Hope that the patient lives. 19:47 Yeah. 19:49 So, with the manikins we use, 19:52 we're gonna want to turn it on before we use it, okay. 19:54 And that you want to keep your compressions 19:58 consistence and deep enough so you don't want the red light 20:02 to come on, that means you killed it. 20:04 You don't want the yellow light to come on, 20:06 that's not good either. 20:07 So the objective is to get the two green lights 20:11 to light up like this, okay. 20:13 One of the big things that we're teaching 20:14 when we're going through and teaching 20:16 this to students is teamwork when it comes to CPR 20:20 because CPR can be very tiring. 20:22 You get worn-out really quickly. 20:23 So one of the big things we're emphasizing that it is 20:26 teamwork how to switch off from one person to other, 20:27 so that's what I'm gonna teach you. 20:28 Okay. Okay. All right. 20:30 So I'm gonna be giving the compressions and when you-- 20:33 You got the green lights? Yeah, that's the green lights. 20:34 Okay, when you go to switch off, 20:36 you're gonna want to put your hands up underneath her. 20:38 Oh, yeah. I'm gonna count to three. 20:40 One, two, three, and you're gonna take over. 20:43 There you go, green color. 20:45 Patient lived. Yes. 20:47 Yep and that's-- Okay. 20:49 So you want to-- the thing is you don't want to break 20:50 the rhythm that you established 20:52 because if you stop, sure enough. 20:55 Well, you keep going and then it goes-- 20:56 The red light goes off, okay, already. 20:57 Well done. Thank you so much. 20:59 So we try to use 21:00 some of the best training devices out today. 21:03 These are called Prestan Manikins. 21:05 We have many adult manikins. 21:07 If you're teaching choking, you are teaching CPR, 21:10 RCP in Spanish, of training on the best equipment 21:14 available today and that's what many of these students 21:17 have learned on, so they can teach with the right tools. 21:21 Now your training is an addition to what they may 21:23 get from FEMA or some other-- 21:25 The foundation of training actually 21:27 from GR3 ACTS World Relief is they, all every year, 21:31 all the students in their academy 21:32 for example go online. 21:34 They take ICS that's Incident Command Systems, 21:37 100, 200, 700, 800, so then CERT online. 21:43 So in another words they are gaining a foundation 21:45 that a lot of emergency professionals 21:47 are required to take. 21:49 So they can relate to them in deployments, 21:51 CERT training. 21:52 They go wow, you are ICS trained. 21:53 You understand Incident Command Systems 21:56 and so with that foundation they all have to pass things 22:00 that many adults say, 22:01 oh, that's too hard, it's too boring. 22:03 But that's what they do. They do it well. 22:05 And now this is technical training. 22:07 On top of that we have nine modules 22:09 that we've developed. 22:10 What I've done is paid 22:12 many leading world organizations 22:15 who excel in things like water rescue. 22:18 We're gonna ask Kevin to demonstrate maybe that now, 22:21 but the training module that they have learned 22:23 to go through is training on the technical things 22:26 from the world's best organizations 22:28 who I've purchased their materials, 22:30 designed them for GR3 and now they can do a pretest, 22:34 posttest and then get their hands to show, 22:37 are you getting the particle part. 22:39 So Kevin is going to illustrate water rescue. 22:43 Water rescue we might add flooding is the number one 22:47 cause of deaths around the world now. 22:50 Increased rains and mudslides happening 22:52 and so would you like to teach C.A., 22:55 and have him learn a little bit about water rescue. 23:00 Well, with water rescue there's also a few hands 23:02 signals that you have to do. 23:05 This-- can you help me here? Okay. 23:09 So, Laurel, what are some hand signals 23:10 with water rescue? 23:11 Okay. 23:12 So when you pat yourself on the head like this, 23:14 that means you're okay. 23:15 It's okay, don't throw the bag until you see this. 23:19 Okay. Let me just stop you. 23:21 A rescuer, someone who's there to save me 23:23 would recognize that, that's what I'm saying. 23:25 So he's trained to recognize that as, okay. 23:28 Or even yells out to tell them these signals 23:31 so he understands. 23:32 Ah, I see, okay. What's the another one? 23:34 Yeah, stop which is universal term stop. 23:37 And also if you need medical you have the medical symbol. 23:40 So in other words you don't you throw the rescue device 23:42 to them if they are doing this or if they are doing that. 23:46 Okay. Good. Yeah. 23:48 Well, we have our throw bag here 23:50 and what you want to do is, 23:51 you have, you want to hold this part 23:53 in your left hand here. 23:55 And we're gonna do an underhand throw. 23:57 Well, one thing that you do, what you want to do is 23:59 a throw at upstream and you also want to go over 24:02 the person because if you don't want to fall short. 24:06 So I'm gonna-- So you're gonna hold it here 24:09 and then you're throw underhand. 24:11 Make sure you don't hit anyone and then you throw it 24:13 like that and then they will grab it and they will put it 24:17 behind them and then you pull them in. 24:20 They would turn around-- Yeah. 24:21 So that they are being pulled backwards 24:23 with the rope over their right shoulder. 24:25 Yes, yes. 24:26 Also you want them facing away from you. 24:27 Correct. 24:29 If they just grab it and they pull forward, 24:31 what happens, Laura? 24:32 It drags them under and drown. 24:34 They would drown and-- 24:35 And turning around to keep your head up. 24:36 Correct, yeah. Yes. Yes. 24:38 Yeah. Yeah. 24:39 See little thing, I say throw your face so I can see 24:41 your eyes. 24:42 I'm telling you. Well done. 24:44 Well done. 24:45 So that just gives you a little idea. 24:47 Now in the next segment right after the song, 24:50 would you like to see a little bit 24:51 more training by some of you? 24:52 Yeah, really would, really would. 24:54 This is exciting. And so you're-- 24:58 You guys are in New York 24:59 a couple of years ago for the big storm there? 25:03 Actually they deployed in New Jersey for Sandy. 25:06 For Sandy, yeah, yeah. 25:08 It was as much-- it was New York, New Jersey, 25:11 Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island, 25:14 just what everything up there was impacted by that. 25:16 So you had chance actually to do, 25:18 to do some of these things. 25:20 Yeah, yeah, that is really, really exciting. 25:23 And as we said before, so very, very necessary. 25:28 Now let me ask you this. 25:29 Once you get on scene, I mean, you come in there, 25:32 you're eager to help, there are already government 25:35 individuals there. 25:36 What can you say or what would you say 25:38 so that they know, you know what you're doing? 25:41 Because one of the things you don't want 25:43 is a lot of people who don't have training, 25:45 don't know what they are doing, 25:46 who are willing but don't have the skill because that 25:48 just makes it worse for the government people, 25:49 then you get into this adversary 25:51 kind of relationship. 25:52 But what did you say so that I would know right away, 25:55 oh, yeah, Laura knows what she's doing. 25:57 Tell me about that. 25:58 So you've asked an excellent question. 26:01 Let's illustrate it with super storm Sandy. 26:04 Immediately as it's typically, 26:06 they will begin putting on the television, 26:08 volunteers not needed. 26:10 They don't need a bunch of world meaning 26:11 volunteers coming into a disaster 26:13 because this leads to more disaster. 26:15 And so what I began doing was contacting all kinds of-- 26:19 and New Jersey was very strong with CERT trained 26:22 the trainers, probably more than any other state, 26:24 lot of CERT trained individuals, 26:26 adults that worked with the Emergency Operation Center. 26:28 So I began reaching out to them. 26:30 And I said, we have 60 youth who are CERT trained 26:34 would you need their assistance? 26:36 And he said, you have 60 that are CERT trained? 26:40 I said yes, they are within 30 minutes of you 26:43 and they are willing to help assist in anyway. 26:46 And he said, I will make a phone call. 26:48 Right now I will meet their boss and I would like them 26:52 to assist the National Guard. 26:55 Now keep in mind, they were turning away people 26:56 by the thousands. 26:58 But immediately because of the training 27:01 they said we need your help now. 27:03 So what did you do with super storm Sandy 27:06 that you kind of got involved with National Guard? 27:09 With super storm Sandy they had a lot of boxes 27:12 of MRE's which are meals ready to eat. 27:15 They use them in the army. 27:16 You just from a packet you break it and it keeps it up. 27:18 So they needed to move all of these from the school 27:22 into a warehouse. 27:23 So we got there. 27:25 When we went on to Sandy we got into the place 27:28 where we're staying, really late, 27:29 I think 2 o'clock in the morning 27:30 something like that and we got up early around six 27:33 the next morning to go and start responding. 27:37 And they gave us this task which I don't know 27:39 how many boxes we must have moved. 27:41 Many pallets. Yeah. 27:42 We were there from like 27:45 10 until like 12 at night, I believe it was. 27:48 So what the Emergency Operation Center told me, 27:52 the students are moving pallets of these MRE's 27:55 at a phenomenal rate and they accomplish 27:58 that within about six hours and basically they said 28:02 it would have taken us a week and half to accomplish 28:05 what they did in a short time. 28:07 So it's that type of energy that youth have. 28:11 They want to be used if rightly trained. 28:13 I want to hear, so if they can trust that you know 28:15 what you're doing, you're gonna be a help not a hinder. 28:18 Yes. Yeah, very good. 28:20 Have you been called-- we know you were in Tennessee 28:23 taking care of your own town. 28:24 You know, when you were in any place else? 28:26 Well, we were too up to hurricane Sandy, 28:28 I did, that was my freshman year. 28:30 We've had several different, not necessarily deployments 28:33 to respond to disasters, but several different trainings 28:36 that we've done. 28:37 Last year my sophomore year we went up to Boston 28:40 and we helped train some of the Harvard medical professional 28:44 there doing a disaster simulation. 28:46 We went up there to do moulage for them 28:48 and different things like that 28:49 and we got to participate in that. 28:51 We also went to New York at the beginning of this year 28:53 and did some training there, similar to the training 28:56 we did on, down in Florida which was train the trainer 28:59 where we worked with like 15 different schools up there 29:03 helping train their young peoples 29:04 so they can train other young people 29:06 and thus empowering them to serve. 29:08 And then we also did that down in Florida. 29:09 Great. 29:10 You mentioned this before and sort of brush by moulage. 29:13 What is that term mean? 29:15 Moulage is where you take a healthy person and make them 29:19 look wounded. 29:21 So it's kind of an art even if it is 29:24 kind of a disgusting art. 29:27 It's to reenact disaster simulation, 29:30 so it looks real. 29:31 So it's easier for them to respond in a real way. 29:33 In a real way, yeah, yeah, excellent, excellent. 29:36 And that's why they ask her just to do the moulage 29:38 at the training she was mentioning even up 29:40 at the Harvard, with Boston, 29:41 because of how professionally they do it. 29:44 Heritage also for a number of years has done that 29:47 in Orlando for the Orlando International Airport, 29:49 all the moulage. 29:50 So these youth can do even better than adults 29:54 with moulage and training and build that confidence. 29:58 So we love to be able to share the vision 30:01 of how you can do even better what adults do. 30:03 They rise to the challenge and God uses them. 30:05 Yeah. 30:06 I'm curious how and before we go to our song 30:08 and make our little switch here, 30:10 how did you get contact 30:12 or connected with Harvard to get access to their 30:15 physicians who certainly need this kind of training? 30:17 Actually the connection came when we're doing 30:21 the Orlando International Airport, 30:23 a number of different opportunities when I'm dealing 30:25 with a lot of emergency personnel. 30:27 This particular degree that they attract, 30:29 it's a largest fellowship in the world on Emergency 30:32 Management Disaster Response. 30:34 They said, okay, we know that technically, 30:37 medically correct things to do. 30:39 But what we need is experience in the field 30:41 and you've been on a lot of deployments. 30:43 So we want that experience for docs. 30:46 So when they go back to their country, 30:47 they can lead the country as medical directorate. 30:50 They need that practical experience. 30:53 Well, people like here Heritage, other schools, 30:55 many schools we've deployed over two-- 30:57 well, actually about 280,000 volunteers. 31:00 So basically they said, we want to go with you 31:04 and that's how God has opened the door to involving down 31:07 around the world. 31:08 Praise the Lord. Well done. 31:10 Thank you both so very, very much. 31:12 We want to go to our music at this time and we're gonna 31:16 bring on two more guests. 31:18 Our message of music is coming this day 31:20 from Valerie Walker, Valerie Shelton Walker, 31:23 and she's gonna be singing "Even in the Valley." 31:43 High upon this mountain 31:47 The sun is shining bright 31:50 My heart is filled With gladness 31:55 Here above the cares of life 31:59 But I've just come Through the valley 32:03 Of trouble fear and pain 32:07 It was there I came to know my God 32:12 Enough to stand and say... 32:18 Even in the valley God is good 32:26 Even in the valley 32:30 He is faithful and true 32:34 He carries His children through 32:39 Like He said He would 32:43 Even in the valley God is good 32:59 This road of life has lead you 33:03 To a valley of defeat 33:07 You wonder if the Father 33:11 Has heard your desperate plea 33:15 There is hope In that rugged place 33:20 Where tears of sorrow dwell 33:24 Can't you hear Him Gently whispering 33:28 I'm here and all is well 33:34 Even in the valley 33:38 God is good 33:43 Even in the valley 33:46 He is faithful and true 33:51 He carries His children through 33:55 Like He said He would 33:59 Even in the valley God is good 34:13 God is good 34:21 Thank you, Valerie Walker. Well done. 34:23 "Even in the valley God is good." 34:25 Well, we've made a little change. 34:27 Well, David, you are the one consistent who is here 34:29 but we've got-- let's see Rebecca Nelson 34:32 and Derek Onjukka. 34:34 Yes, Onjukka. 34:35 Onjukka, good to have you both here. 34:37 Rebecca, where are you from? 34:39 I'm from New York City, Queens. 34:40 All right. Queens, New York. 34:42 Oh, my pastored too short of Queens, 34:45 Springfield Gardens and out in Far Rockaway. 34:48 Okay. So I know Queens quite well. 34:50 And Derek, you are from where? 34:52 I live in Chippewa Falls, Wisconsin. 34:55 Okay. 34:58 I know that's in north. 34:59 I haven't been to Chippewa Falls, Wisconsin. 35:01 Good to have you guys, here. 35:02 And I've asked all of the students, 35:05 so I would ask you that question 35:06 also before we get into, what we've got to do 35:07 and it moves us kind of quickly. 35:10 Why did you choose Heritage, Rebecca? 35:12 Well, you know growing up in New York its really busy, 35:16 life is, you know, really hectic all the time. 35:18 And I think, I went to a conference school, 35:23 an Adventist conference school as a freshman 35:26 but I didn't feel like I was growing close to God. 35:29 I mean just city life and everything. 35:31 I just didn't feel like connection and I think God 35:34 led me to Heritage Academy. 35:35 I've heard of it from a friend and when I went to visit, 35:38 I was like, I think this is where God wants me to be. 35:41 And I really felt like I just grew so much more spiritually. 35:44 So it was a conscious decision for a spiritual growth? 35:46 Yes. 35:47 Yeah, because I chaired the Board of Northeastern 35:49 Academy for many years and Greater New York Academy 35:51 is right there in Queens. 35:53 So I know them both quite well, 35:55 but they are city schools and nowhere to get around it. 35:58 They are city schools and crowed 35:59 and you got all that New York stuff to deal with. 36:02 So you were able to find God little easier 36:04 and little better at Heritage. 36:05 Yeah, definitely. All right, Derek? 36:07 Well, my brother actually was the first one who found out 36:10 about Heritage and he wanted to go there 36:12 because of their flight program that they offer. 36:14 So I kind of came as a tagalong, 36:16 so I'm not really sure it was, you know, 36:17 what I was gonna do there. 36:18 But I felt God was you know calling me to be there 36:21 and I had no idea how much I would learn there 36:24 and how much closer I would come to God. 36:26 So yeah, I think it's, you know, 36:28 His divine plan that He used my brother, you know, 36:30 and his interest in the flight program to bring me 36:32 there and to do what I do there now. 36:34 So that I suspect you both kind of agree that being 36:37 at Heritage as far as part of your spiritual growth 36:39 it's positive? 36:40 Yes. Most definitely. 36:41 Yeah. Great, great. 36:42 Now, David, we got some stuff to go through here, 36:44 don't we? 36:46 Yeah, we better, before our time gets away. 36:48 We had a lot of fun in the last segment 36:49 with some training and now these are 36:52 a couple more of our expert train the trainers. 36:55 We're gonna ask if Derek could be able to train you 36:59 on doing something that's very, very important 37:02 and that is how to prevent chocking 37:04 or help somebody who is chocking, 37:06 'cause you only got 45 seconds to get whatever is 37:09 lodged in your throat possibly to get that out 37:12 or you're gonna-- 37:13 If you're alone you're gonna faint 37:14 and die at home. 37:16 So Derek is going to help give some hands on demonstration 37:19 and teach you a little bit how to do 37:20 the Heimlich and we'll turn it over to Derek. 37:22 And actually two things specialize in if you will 37:25 in disaster training as the medical aspects of it 37:28 which includes the chocking and also real quickly 37:30 I would mention the wound care that we do as well. 37:32 And we teach people how to respond in a disaster 37:35 and how to take care of wounds, simple wounds 37:37 whether it's like a small ulceration 37:39 or we even have a simulation of how people respond to like 37:42 an amputated arm and we teach them how to turn 37:44 and kit that and how to stop the bleeding. 37:46 And like he said the second thing we do is chocking. 37:49 And we have the nice chocking vest to teach that with. 37:52 And actually we have someone here 37:53 and I'll actually teach you how to do it. 37:55 Okay. So you can stand right here. 37:59 So the first thing you want to look for and recognize 38:02 for a person who is chocking and he is our chocking victim. 38:04 It's the universal sign for chocking which his two hands 38:07 on the throat like that. 38:08 And the first thing you want to do if you see someone 38:10 like that is come up and ask for confirmation, 38:12 are you chocking? 38:14 And of course they won't be able to respond because 38:16 there's something in their airway. 38:17 But you'll be able to know if they are chocking. 38:19 And if you want to come over here behind him? 38:21 Okay. 38:23 The first thing you want to do before doing 38:25 the abdominal thrust which you probably heard 38:27 before I mention is you want to try dislodge 38:30 what's ever in their airway by doing a few upward quick 38:32 and strong like hits right there on the back. 38:35 So we have this nice pad here where you can do that. 38:36 And just hit him like that? 38:37 Yeah, really hard like upward, 38:38 of course not too hard. 38:39 Oh, really hard? 38:40 Yeah, there's some padding here. 38:44 So, yeah, you do that pretty hard 38:45 though in a real situation. 38:46 If that doesn't work, what you're gonna do 38:48 is make sure his legs are shoulder width apart 38:50 and what's important 38:52 is you want to put one of your legs 38:53 between his legs a little bit forward 38:55 because after you do the abdominal thrust 38:57 a lot of times people will pass out. 38:58 So that's just so you can catch them so they are not 39:00 falling on their face on the floor. 39:02 So you can just guide them down gentle. 39:04 So what you're gonna do is take your non dominant hand, 39:06 so if I'm right handed you take your left hand 39:09 and put your thumb like that and you're gonna reach around 39:11 and put it right in front here, there's a nice little X, 39:13 so you would be like right there. 39:15 Now take your stronger hand and put it over that, 39:17 like that and then you just gonna do a quick upward thrust. 39:20 Upward thrust. Oh. 39:22 And there we go, that came out of the airway, good job. 39:24 Okay, he lived. 39:28 So, Derek, as you were mentioning if he's home alone, 39:32 he could do that over a chair, 39:33 over a table by just simply putting his hands on the-- 39:36 Put your hands on the each side 39:37 and you have 45 seconds to do that. 39:39 So, yeah, find a chair as quickly as possibly. 39:41 Saving lives. Saving lives. 39:42 So you would do that to yourself. 39:44 You put your-- 39:45 Yeah, if there's no one around that's, 39:46 that's what you're supposed to do, 39:47 is find something that you can use. 39:48 The baby has handed to me chocking an so immediately 39:52 it's got something in its throat, 39:54 the mother tells me. 39:55 So immediately I'm gonna take the child infant, 39:58 turn it upside down, put a V over here, 40:01 put it like this and I'm gonna do three quick hits 40:03 just like you were doing there, one, two, three. 40:07 And normally it will come out of the first one 40:09 or I can put the baby on my knee 40:11 and do the same thing. 40:12 It's gonna come out. 40:13 You never on an infant want to stick your finger down 40:15 his throat because it will lodge it down further, 40:17 that's only for adults. 40:19 But anyway that gives you just a few simple things 40:21 that to our viewing audience. 40:23 These techniques can save a lot of lives quickly 40:27 way before-- you see if you call 911 40:30 or you call the ambulance come, they would already be dead. 40:32 Yeah. Yeah. 40:33 It's amazing that some of-- so many of things 40:36 that you would think are intuitive 40:37 to do are the precise 40:39 wrong thing that you shouldn't do. 40:41 Yeah, that's correct. Yeah, yeah, incredible. 40:43 So here we're talking about 40:45 all these great training techniques and ideas. 40:48 Doing a train the trainer with other youth around 40:50 the world, master guides, but now we want 40:54 to maybe shift gears for just a moment. 40:56 How have they applied this to training other schools 40:59 so that, when they are training other youth, 41:02 they are training churches now to reach out to their 41:05 communities, we call that newest concept working 41:08 with a Southern Union of Seventh-day Adventist. 41:11 Jim Ingersoll is a very special individual 41:13 that has deployed groups with school groups with us 41:16 for many, many years. 41:17 And so he came up with a new title called to serve. 41:21 See that's a biblical going two by two. 41:22 Yes. 41:23 And so this is a title now that has taken out 41:26 a lot of momentum. 41:27 Training our church leaders and youth to be able to say, 41:32 you know, if we hold something called a block party. 41:35 We can be able to invite the community and now the youth 41:38 are dividing up into stations like 14 stations. 41:41 The community is rotating, learning things 41:43 that they really want to know. 41:45 This is a great source of evangelism 41:48 because the youth are involved, 41:49 but they are training the community now 41:52 and the church becomes alive because they are saying, 41:54 wow, you mean I can be used? 41:56 So you get youth training church members, 41:58 church members training the community. 42:00 We're gonna show you just a few quick pictures of our 42:03 last two serve conference and training 42:05 that we held in Orlando. 42:07 And some of these pictures, that's a flier we use, 42:10 it went out through the area of greater Orlando, 42:14 three different Adventist Churches were used 42:17 to reach out to their communities. 42:18 The next one shows basically the group, 42:21 the mayor is there, you had Adventist community 42:24 service director, Florida Conference, 42:26 Conrad Duncan there. 42:27 Many other leaders, Jim is on the far right, 42:29 the one I mentioned in the green shirt. 42:31 So here's your community leaders becoming involved 42:34 in the training and then realizing how they can help 42:37 their community. 42:38 So there's some of the youth representing around 42:40 the southeastern part of the United States. 42:42 And I think we've got another picture showing-- 42:46 basically here's one of our box trucks taking thousands 42:50 of dollars of free donated supplies, 42:52 dropping them off to the various churches 42:54 in the block pretty soon that they can distribute 42:57 these free items to the community. 42:58 All of these different components are a tremendous 43:01 way to meet the needs of your community, 43:04 training your church so that truly they can be affective. 43:07 This picture shows one of the stations, great one, 43:10 that we have a lot of fun in doing face painting, 43:12 children love it. 43:13 They had youth to a great job training. 43:15 And now I want to end this on a very interesting note. 43:20 You might ask evangelism. What does this do? 43:24 We've heard from a number of Heritage students talking 43:27 about how when they are given the opportunity 43:30 to train others, they grow spiritually 43:32 and the leadership skills that last picture you saw 43:35 was taken just a couple of weeks ago 43:37 in Mexico as I mention, 43:38 as I was training 400 master guides 43:41 from around the country. 43:42 So I made the appeal at the worship hour 43:45 and I said you have been learning these things-- 43:49 in another words, God is calling me to serve. 43:52 And I said now, before you can train others 43:55 God is calling for you to make a commitment 43:58 to give your heart to Jesus Christ 44:00 because God is calling you 44:01 and now He wants to empower you. 44:04 And so to become empower miraculously 44:08 for all of who have not given your hearts to Jesus Christ 44:11 or maybe want to make a recommitment. 44:13 We had a tremendous baptism there after that worship hour. 44:16 So the good news is, we want our viewers to know is that 44:20 God is moving around the world. 44:22 God is moving because you know, 44:24 He has called us to train over 30 countries 44:28 in the past three years 44:29 and so there's a tremendous desire 44:32 to learn more and more, 44:33 how we can serve God effectively 44:36 through time, telling and treasure. 44:38 And ultimately commit our hearts to Jesus Christ 44:42 and through baptism now we're making that ongoing 44:45 commitment and showing others how we can live for Christ. 44:49 It occurs me, one that this is a very necessary thing, 44:53 but two, it is de facto evangelism, 44:58 in that it brings a person in contact with a Christian 45:01 caregiver who shows how important they are. 45:04 Rebecca, I want to ask you, what are you plan and doing 45:07 for your vocation for life, do you know? 45:09 Well, I want to study premed. 45:11 I want to become a medical missionary. 45:13 So, yeah, I have been wanting to do that 45:15 for a while now and I think maybe God is leading me. 45:17 Yeah, yeah. 45:19 Has that vision got little clearer as you've involved 45:21 yourself in medical or at least paramedical activity? 45:24 Yes, actually I have been doing-- like I've been 45:28 CPR certified and things like that and so it just giving 45:31 me ideas of you know, how this works. 45:34 And I'm just really interested in the medical field 45:37 and I think I really want to serve God. 45:40 Yeah, praise God. Derek, same question. 45:41 Do you know what you're gonna do? 45:42 Yeah, I'm also in healthcare, 45:44 but more specifically some form of dentistry. 45:46 My dad's a dentist and I have been able to see him 45:48 do some like short term mission work in different countries 45:51 like Philippines and in Mexico. 45:54 And yeah, that's just been really appealing to me to do 45:57 some form of dentistry because I feel that, 45:58 that's not only like a good job to have here, 46:01 but also like you can use it in other countries 46:03 all over the world. 46:06 Here comes your high concept question now. 46:09 As you look at what this does and the response 46:12 that you have gotten from the people that you serve, 46:14 that you taught, that you trained. 46:16 Can you see how this is 46:18 and I use the term almost a pain 46:20 free way to introduce somebody to Christ? 46:23 Surely it's less traumatic or dramatic 46:26 than sort of head right into a Bible study 46:29 but you developed a helping caring relationship. 46:32 Has that occurred to you that it's a really nice, 46:34 easy way to introduce to someone to the love of Christ? 46:38 Well, I think it's a great way to introduce someone to 46:43 the love of Christ because like you're helping them 46:47 with their needs before you're meeting 46:49 their spiritual needs. 46:50 So you're meeting them where they are first. 46:52 You know, you are helping them with that 46:54 and so you develop a relationship with them 46:56 and I think that's really crucial 46:58 before you even talked to them about God, 47:01 and His love you're showing that to them first. 47:03 Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, Derek? 47:05 And people in the midst of a disaster 47:08 are often at their lowest point in their life. 47:10 So they are looking for something more. 47:12 They are really open to, you know, 47:13 whatever you have for them 47:14 to fill everything they have lost. 47:16 So it's like a great opportunity to be able to 47:18 witness to them because they are looking for that. 47:21 Yeah, great. 47:22 I was trying to actually get through one whole program 47:24 without going to "Ministry of Healing" page 143. 47:27 You know Christ method alone. 47:29 But it is so obvious that this is, 47:31 this is an opening way. 47:32 That's right. 47:33 Because the barriers are down as Derek has just 47:35 stated very well that need is there 47:37 and you're meeting that need. 47:38 And it's very hard to say no to somebody who's down 47:40 on their knees meeting their needs. 47:41 So Derek has used the training in psychological 47:43 first-aid crisis care, emotional care. 47:45 So Derek, real quick where you're hurting the most? 47:49 I've asked him to voice triage identify to me, 47:52 where you're hurting the most? 47:53 In the night say, where ever I'm hurting like, 47:54 my legs hurt or something. 47:55 So then you deal with the medical need. 47:57 Derek, do you like blessings? Yeah, I do. 48:00 Thousands of people I have that question when they are 48:02 hurting no one is yet to admit. 48:04 We all like blessings. Yeah. 48:05 So now you're asking permission, next step. 48:08 Derek, you want to keep using their name. 48:10 Could I pray a prayer of blessing with you right now? 48:14 Of course. 48:16 Who doesn't love blessings? See. 48:17 And so now you lead into the promises of God 48:19 and our youth pray the promises of God with them. 48:22 You're asking permission, we've never yet been refused 48:25 for someone of who did want to prayer blessing. 48:27 When you sort of ease into it that way it makes it 48:29 very nice and you know sometimes we want to just-- 48:32 let's okay, let's pray. 48:33 Well, the person may not be there just yet. 48:35 And you're forcing them. Precisely. 48:37 Let's pray or mistakenly many pastors 48:40 say the wrong things. 48:42 So we try to train the correct things to ask 48:44 and to say. 48:45 By saying, I'm gonna praying over you 48:47 and that kind of sounds like last race. 48:48 You're right, it does. 48:49 And so we're asking permission 48:51 and a prayer of blessing with them, not over them. 48:55 So many of these things are very important that they learn. 48:57 Yeah. 48:58 Let me ask you this because I'm sitting 49:01 in my living room I'm watching this program, 49:03 I'd like my church to learn. 49:06 I'd like my path finding group to-- 49:07 Can I get this to my church? 49:09 Can I get these young people to come? 49:10 I would like my young people to get excited and turned on 49:13 and really functioning for the Lord I suppose 49:16 who's just coming in vegetating. 49:17 How do I do that? How, would you come? 49:20 In just a moment you're gonna see on the screen 49:22 how to get in touch with Acts World Relief, actswr.org. 49:27 There's a phone number 49:28 that they can also find on that website, 49:30 but and they will show on the screen here as well. 49:33 They can be able to call. 49:34 We don't try to go out 49:36 and train just one church at a time, 49:38 it's a whole area, 49:40 when you're getting them together, 49:41 so that's a train the trainer track or program. 49:44 So we do want to invite our volunteers around the world 49:47 to be able to get involved. 49:49 God is opening a lot of doors and when you-- 49:52 When they understand how they can 49:54 become involved through that address 49:57 we want them to call. 49:59 And get together a large group of people together, 50:02 many schools, many churches, area churches gather 50:05 together and that we're glad to help in that respect. 50:09 Now, what I say now, I say, out of great deference, 50:12 respect and love for you 50:13 who I've known for a quite a while. 50:16 But and I want you to come. 50:19 But I want the young people, do I get them along with you 50:24 or do I get them instead of you? 50:26 I love to have you, but I want the kids 50:27 because that's where the energy is gonna come from. 50:29 Amen, and I agree with you totally. 50:32 What I love to see is these youth in action training 50:35 the trainers, that's where they are 50:36 going around the country training and other schools. 50:39 So we want the school to become ultimately 50:41 you're the train the trainer, 50:42 so it can multiply, it isn't me. 50:44 God is calling me to so many areas. 50:46 I'm trying to create the vision and the modules 50:49 and what not, but another words you probably won't get me, 50:52 but you'll get great train the trainers like these 50:54 youth and these are the ones God is using 50:58 around the world to be able to touch those lives. 51:00 So that's the real module of multiplication 51:03 and volunteerism. 51:04 God has called us to serve others in love, 51:06 Galatians 5:13. 51:08 Yeah. Praise the Lord. Praise the Lord. 51:10 Should you have heard anything that interests you? 51:13 You may want to support ACTS, 51:14 they can always use your support, 51:16 your prayers and your financial gifts 51:18 or if you have young people that you would like to train 51:21 because as we said before, 51:22 this is a great way to introduce 51:25 someone to the love of Christ and a pre event to evangelism 51:29 if you are planning that in the future 51:31 or if you live in a part of the country, 51:34 any place along the east coast from Maine to Florida 51:36 that, that is affected by hurricanes or natural disasters 51:40 or in this part of the country where they have 51:41 earthquakes or the west coast where they have 51:43 earthquakes just about any part of the country can be 51:47 trained for this kind of thing. 51:48 We didn't except New York 51:49 what we got a couple of years ago. 51:51 You want to get out of the curve and have your church, 51:54 your group, your area, your city, your town trained. 51:58 Here is the contact information that you will need. 52:02 ACTS or Active Community Teams Serving 52:06 provides humanitarian relief to those in need while sharing 52:09 the love of God. 52:10 But this work cannot be done alone, 52:12 they need your service or your grateful donations. 52:15 If you would like to help, you can write 52:17 to ACTS World Relief, 600 Citrus Avenue, 52:21 Fort Pierce, Florida 34950. 52:24 That's ACTS World Relief, 600 Citrus Avenue, 52:28 Fort Pierce, Florida 34950. 52:31 You can call 407-625-4655. 52:35 That's 407-625-4655 52:39 or visit their website at actswr.org. 52:43 That's actswr.org. |
