What is your church? 04:15 My church is Desert Cove Seventh-day Adventist Church 04:17 in Arizona. 04:18 Yay! 04:20 So you came all the way from Arizona? 04:21 Yes, but I'm not the furthest, I have friends who came out 04:24 from Baltimore, and from Virginia, everywhere, 04:27 Michigan, it's everywhere. 04:29 Just coming in to flood this area. 04:32 Why did you feel it was so important, Sue, 04:34 take away time from your job, perhaps your family, 04:37 your church to come to Los Angeles 04:39 to be part of this, why is this important to you? 04:42 Well, not only it was a great opportunity 04:46 for local mission field 04:49 and you don't even have to buy a plane ticket. 04:51 Well, at least for me I didn't have to. 04:53 So that was the huge incentive as well, 04:55 and the climate that we're in these days, 04:58 we know the work is getting done. 05:00 And we want Christ to come. 05:02 We want the love of Christ to just exude out, 05:05 and He was all about healing, recreating, restoration, 05:09 that's huge and so it's a medical ministry, 05:12 right arm of the gospel. 05:14 So in this city of angels, we want to make a lot of angels 05:16 for His glory, so that's huge. 05:19 Amen, thank you so much. 05:21 Now two quick questions because, one, 05:23 are you a working person, are you working person? 05:24 Yes, yes. 05:26 I'm a speech pathologist, 05:27 that's mine line of training, yes. 05:29 So you had to leave your job, take time off to do that. 05:32 Correct, I let my boss know ahead of time. 05:35 I had to put in the time correct. 05:37 A little while ago, 05:38 I saw you gathered the group together 05:40 and you were praying a very passionate prayer. 05:43 What was motivating that prayer? 05:44 Why were you praying so much, it was in middle of the day, 05:47 but you gather them together for something special, 05:49 why was that? 05:50 Yes, it was just on my heart. 05:52 I'm all about prayer ministry, 05:54 and intercessory prayer is huge. 05:56 And God says knock, knock, knock, right? 06:00 "And knock and it shall be given you, 06:02 seek and you shall find." 06:03 But it's like asking for that bread, 06:05 the lady comes out at midnight and saying, 06:07 "Lord, please help." 06:08 And we're in a dire straits 06:09 a little bit with some of probably 06:13 the other force working against the good 06:15 that's coming out of here. 06:17 So we wanted to make sure, we as a group came together 06:19 and had intercessory prayer. 06:21 That's such a huge heart passion of mine, yeah. 06:23 Now are you in charge of this group 06:25 or did you just take it upon yourself 06:27 to gather them together for prayer, 06:28 because you saw something going on 06:30 that you needed to push back again? 06:32 Correct, the ladder. 06:33 The person in charge actually she's wonderful. 06:35 Cathleen Myers, and the whole team behind me, 06:37 they're just great. 06:39 They've been working nonstop since yesterday. 06:41 We've been here again this morning 06:42 since 6 o'clock in the morning too. 06:44 But I know some of the things 06:46 that was going on that maybe they didn't, 06:48 and so I just came and I said, 06:49 "Hey, you guys, we have a slight little pause time. 06:52 Let's get together and pray. Take as many times as you can. 06:55 Even in our minds like continually just keep praying, 06:59 yes. 07:00 It's early, we're on the first day. 07:01 Right. 07:03 But have you met anyone or run into anyone 07:04 that would kind of stick out in your mind, 07:06 maybe a little special story that touched your heart so far? 07:09 So far, in terms of, I am dealing more 07:11 with the volunteer people coming in. 07:14 So I haven't had as much interface with the patients 07:16 that are coming in. 07:18 I hope to, but in terms of the volunteers, 07:21 there's several stories that do come to mind 07:23 of how they made it here and, 07:25 you know, they're running on lows, 07:28 low level finance and all this stuff, 07:30 but it's a walk of faith for them to. 07:33 It's jus t wonderful to see how many of the body of Christ 07:37 has comes together to really support 07:39 this for city of Los Angeles. 07:42 We talk about the right arm of the gospel, 07:44 and a medical machinery work, 07:48 many times we've got just maybe a little blood pressure thing 07:50 or little something, 07:51 but this is sort of medical machinery work on steroids... 07:54 Yeah. 07:56 And when you get a town this big, 07:57 this is kind of what you need. 07:59 So do you think this is all the effort, all the time, 08:01 all the money, all the logistics, 08:03 is it worth it to you? 08:05 Wow, well, one soul is worth everything 08:09 to our heavenly Father. 08:10 So in that mindset, if I'm heavenly minded, 08:14 this is all worth it. 08:16 And not only is it bettering the people that are coming 08:18 through the doors, I think it's a great sense of honing 08:22 our characters for His kingdom, 08:25 even for our experience here, because there is times, 08:27 there's several of the workers here, 08:29 they didn't have a break at all. 08:30 They work straight nine hours. 08:33 Barely getting even a bathroom break. 08:34 I think some of them didn't even get that. 08:37 And it's a sense of okay, my sense of intolerance 08:40 and my self rising, like I'm like okay, 08:43 I got to just give that up and be selfless, 08:45 and be other centered for the sake of someone else. 08:49 So that's huge. Yes. 08:52 So this is kind of like putting legs on the gospel, 08:54 putting some shoes on the gospel. 08:56 Correct, correct. 08:57 Now some people might think 08:59 it's a splash and dash thing too. 09:00 Like "Oh, we can't boom." 09:01 And then we're out, but hopefully 09:03 it's making the local agencies, 09:06 especially in our church the local agencies 09:08 of this city and the, you know, 09:11 the areas beyond get a little bit more like, 09:14 "Hey, let's wake up. 09:15 We got to do more here too. 09:17 So hopefully that's an impetus to that as well. 09:21 And God bless you. Thank you. 09:23 Thanks you so much. Praise the Lord. 09:24 Seriously to His glory. 09:28 There was a large group of individuals 09:30 wearing black shirts, 09:31 who were responsible for registration. 09:33 A really wonderful group of individuals. 09:35 Our friend Janet Barnhill who is also been here at 3ABN 09:37 was part of that group. 09:39 And they did just a wonderful job. 09:41 We wanted to highlight the... 09:45 participation of young people, 09:47 who were part of this ministry. 09:48 Tiffany Hogans comes from Los Angeles Academy. 09:52 And we had a chance to catch her 09:54 as she was running to and fro on the second day. 09:56 Here's our interview with Tiffany. 09:59 Hi, I'm visiting here with Tiffany Hogans, 10:02 who is the senior class president 10:05 at Los Angeles Adventist Academy. 10:08 Tiffany, it's good to have you here. 10:09 It's good to have you too. Couple of questions. 10:13 One, how many students from your school are here? 10:17 I believe it's 25 students. 10:20 And were you all given specific assignments 10:23 before you got here, or did they just place you 10:24 when you got here? 10:26 When we got here, 10:28 we just had to go sign up in the booth 10:30 and then they just access 10:32 with what department we want to go to. 10:34 So basically, they just set us anywhere, 10:37 but we had our options of where we wanted to be. 10:40 Okay. Now where did you select to go? 10:42 I selected to go to the dental department, 10:44 and yeah. 10:46 I forgot to mention, Tiffany is a senior. 10:49 She is senior class president 10:50 and where you gonna go to school in the fall? 10:53 Pacific Union College. 10:55 You gonna stay on the coast? 10:56 Yes. Alrighty. 10:58 This is our second day here. 11:00 You had a full day yesterday, 11:01 tell me exactly what you were doing in the dental department? 11:04 I was basically helping the doctors 11:08 and going back and forth 11:09 to go give whatever they needed 11:10 and helping them with the water. 11:13 And going to get the vessels for the patients 11:16 and just any medical things they needed help with. 11:20 Was this what you expected, more than you expected, 11:24 less than you expected, different than you expected, 11:27 how was the experience, what you got into doing 11:28 what you are called to do? 11:30 It wasn't really expected when I got here, 11:33 but when I got here, I was pretty excited. 11:34 When I started seeing everything 11:36 that I wanted to do. 11:37 And so, when I saw everything, 11:39 I just started being like happy, 11:41 and everything and joyful. 11:42 And when I saw most of the patients 11:44 they were all just so like friendly, 11:47 and I got to know some other patients 11:49 and known some of their personal lives 11:51 and everything like that, yeah. 11:54 Let's talk about that just a little bit, Tiffany, 11:55 because you are interfacing with the patients, 11:58 they are talking to you, you are talking with them. 12:00 Is there any particular story that stands out in your mind, 12:03 of a particular patient that you are dealing 12:05 with yesterday? 12:06 One patient in particular, she couldn't afford 12:10 to get the medical help that she needed. 12:13 So she was praying to God asking for a way, 12:15 but the way that, she couldn't find a way 12:19 but somehow this convention center thing, 12:21 it popped up and then she heard about it 12:24 through the radio and then she came 12:25 and I guess that was a big blessing for her 12:27 because she couldn't afford it at all. 12:30 Excellent. 12:32 We've been talking about now I've been asking 12:34 in each interview about reciprocity. 12:36 Long word simply means when you give something, 12:38 you get something. 12:39 Have you found that true in your experience here, 12:42 you're giving to them 12:43 but you're also getting a blessing yourself? 12:45 I believe when giving a blessing, 12:49 I would receive one back 12:50 but I don't look at it that way. 12:52 I believe in helping people and giving them opportunity 12:55 to give what they need rather than looking 12:57 for something back. 13:00 I like that idea. 13:01 But it is true that when you give, you do get, 13:04 because God sees to it that you get. 13:06 And that's the great part of service 13:08 that when you give you to somebody else, 13:10 God gives you a little something back. 13:11 Have all of your fellow classmates 13:13 felt that same thing? 13:15 I am pretty sure they did, yeah. 13:18 What time you're getting up in the morning? 13:21 In this morning, 13:23 and got here round 9 o'clock. 13:25 Alrighty, very good. 13:27 So you've got rested today and tomorrow, 13:30 then are you leaving or you'll be here for Sabbath? 13:33 I'll be leaving tomorrow in the evening time, yeah. 13:36 If you ever get an opportunity to do this again, 13:38 would you do it again? 13:40 Most definitely, yeah. 13:42 Okay, here's that commercial part, Tiffany. 13:43 Say that someone out there 13:45 is kind of sitting on the bench, 13:46 they're saying, "Yeah, may wanna go, 13:49 I may not wanna go." 13:51 what would say as far as your experience is concerned 13:53 to convince them that they should come 13:55 and do something like this. 13:57 I think you all should just come out, 13:59 and help and support everyone. 14:00 And just come out and just do a good deed 14:03 because you always get a blessing back 14:04 when you're giving something. 14:06 And it's also good experience for your personal life 14:08 with helping others. 14:11 Tiffany, thank you very much. 14:13 God bless. Thank you. 14:16 We finally were able to catch up 14:18 with Dr. Lela Lewis on the second day of Los Angeles, 14:22 Your Best Pathway to Health. 14:24 Dr. Chris was in surgery the whole time, 14:25 we weren't able to talk with him. 14:27 But we did catch her, she had a wonderful story 14:29 and we got to spend just a few moments with her. 14:34 We're near the close of day number two, 14:37 and we finally had a chance to catch up 14:39 with Dr. Lela Lewis. 14:42 She has been extremely busy 14:43 and I said just before we went on 14:45 that she must be pretty close 14:46 to talked out doing interviews, giving directions, 14:49 running to and fro. 14:50 But good, doctor, good to have here. 14:52 Thank you so much, CA, 14:53 it's always a pleasure to be with you. 14:56 Great, give us a little overview 14:57 of the first day in three quarters. 15:01 Has it met your expectation, 15:02 so we know a lot of people have come in. 15:03 There were some challenges yesterday, 15:05 but give us just your flavor of the overview 15:08 of the last day and half? 15:09 You know, we had a little hiccups to began with, 15:12 just initially, but God worked it all out. 15:14 We ended by God's grace yesterday spectacularly. 15:16 And today has just gone beautifully. 15:19 Miraculously beautifully. 15:21 Everybody has been working together 15:22 and it's just gone really smooth. 15:24 I noticed, in running back and forth, 15:26 just taking pictures and looking around 15:27 even though some machines were acting up, 15:29 people were not acting up, they were behaving. 15:32 And there was a very good sprit 15:34 even though the technical aspects were little rough, 15:37 the human aspects were very smooth. 15:40 Yes, and everybody continuous to get along and smile 15:43 and really truly exemplify Jesus to the patients 15:46 and to ourselves. 15:47 Praise the Lord. 15:48 Now, I saw today what I had expected to see. 15:51 We began to see the long lines particularly in dental, 15:54 and of course in eye care. 15:56 I know you're moving through as fast as you can, 15:58 how many dentists and dental setups do you have here? 16:01 We have a 125 dental setups and we have just over 16:04 94 to 95 dentists on site. 16:07 So it's a good setup. 16:09 Some of the dentists take a couple chair 16:10 so it works out well. 16:13 Now what about eye care on the other side, 16:16 close to the same numbers? 16:18 Well, we have few less optometrists. 16:20 But we have a number of eye care lanes 16:23 and so eye care is actually able to see 16:25 just around 750 to 800 patients per day, 16:28 and they're doing a great job. 16:30 Excellent, now even with the hiccups, 16:31 what was our number for yesterday? 16:33 Our number for yesterday was 22,559. 16:38 And today we have actually just come 16:40 between the two days, just under 6,000 patients. 16:43 So we are very, very excited.

God bless you. 21:12 Doctor Lela is certainly excited and enthused 21:16 about the work that she does. 21:19 The person that she was speaking 21:20 of was Paul Kincaid. 21:21 We actually got a chance to interview Paul Kincaid 21:24 later on that evening. 21:26 And it's really quite an interesting 3ABN story. 21:30 Here is Paul Kincaid's story in his own words. 21:35 Good evening. 21:36 We have another wonderful testimony to share with you. 21:39 This is Paul Kincaid. 21:41 He is one of the patients that we've seen during our time. 21:44 And Paul has an interesting experience 21:46 that we would like him to share with you. 21:48 Paul, you shared with me 21:49 that you actually live in Idaho, 21:53 and way kind of up on a mountain, 21:55 and earlier this year, in kind of the dead of winter, 21:59 you're on your way home, 22:01 and because you lived way up on a mountain, 22:03 where you have to the park, 22:05 and actually walk to your house about a mile. 22:08 You decided on this particular day 22:10 that just would be too difficult to do. 22:12 So what did you do, 22:14 since you weren't gonna go directly home? 22:15 Well, I guessed in my mind, 22:18 where I could stay for the night, 22:20 and in the little town of Plummer in Idaho, 22:23 there is one motel. 22:26 And they just happen to have a vacancy, 22:28 and I went to stay in the motel for the night. 22:32 So you decided to stay there in motel for the night 22:34 and you went in. 22:36 And the receptionist actually gave you a little black box 22:39 or something to operate the television. 22:41 So did you do with that, 22:43 is that's something that you do all the time watching TV. 22:44 Well, I don't own a television. 22:46 I don't have electricity up there in the mountains, 22:49 and I didn't even know about this little box before. 22:52 Hence, so I said I didn't want it, 22:54 because I didn't have a use for, and she said, oh, 22:58 that's a remote control, so you see how old school. 23:02 And so I said, "Okay, I'll take it 23:06 and maybe there is something worth watching on television." 23:10 And so I took it. 23:13 Okay, so then you took it, you decided to take a shower 23:16 and go to sleep. 23:17 But then you woke up and you decided to, 23:19 love to see what might be on television, 23:22 and what did you discover? 23:24 Well, I was went through the different channels, 23:29 menu things like that and I found a program called 3ABN, 23:36 and lot of you probably know 3ABN. 23:40 And so who was on 3ABN at the time that you tuned in? 23:44 Well, there was a man and woman. 23:47 And I didn't recognize them, but they were so excited 23:51 about something that I... 23:54 it just attracted me, I want to hear 23:56 what they were talking about. 23:58 So what were they talking about? 24:00 Well, they were talking about wellness. 24:02 I was not too well. 24:05 And I wanted to be well, and so I listen 24:09 to what they had to say. 24:10 And so we know now that who was that, 24:13 that was speaking? 24:14 It was... 24:17 Dr. Lela and Chris Lewis... Dr. Lela and Chris Lewis. 24:21 Okay. 24:22 And I didn't know all the logistics 24:24 of what was going on, and how I was gonna get here. 24:30 I thought it will probably cost a fortune 24:32 for some thing like this. 24:33 And I found out it was for free for the patients. 24:36 And that kind of blew my mind, you know, 24:38 I say how can they do something like this 24:41 and not charge, you know, again a trial of something. 24:45 Yeah, all right, so you decided in your mind 24:49 that you're actually going to come to LA from Idaho, 24:55 so how did you get here? 24:57 Well, it wasn't easy. 24:59 I checked around different ways to getting down here. 25:02 Even I consider riding a bicycle 25:05 all the way from Northern Idaho. 25:07 And my son-in-law discouraged me, he said, 25:11 "You wouldn't get down there before the program was over." 25:14 So I found that if you bought your ticket early, 25:18 I can get a discount on it. 25:20 The only problem was, I couldn't turn in 25:23 if I change my mind, I was stuck. 25:26 And so you were stuck, and you took a bus. 25:29 How long did it take for you to get the bus, the Greyhound, 25:32 to get here to LA. 25:33 About 40 hours because, we had some problems 25:36 with getting a driver at one point. 25:39 Now when you got here, you came in, 25:41 where you able to receive services that you desired? 25:44 I received more than I ever thought I would receive. 25:48 I can't believe all the wonderful things 25:52 that this people had provided for people like me, you know, 25:55 and all others just like me. 25:57 So what impressed you about what you receive 26:01 this environment when you came? 26:03 When I came, the love of Christ just flooded out. 26:10 I had a lot of volunteers, and help providers, 26:14 and almost every one of them prayed with me. 26:17 Even before and even after the service was provided. 26:22 And I've never been to a health place 26:26 where people prayed with you before and after, 26:30 even before or after, 26:32 and so it was just a really wonderful experience. 26:36 Paul, thank you so much 26:37 for sharing your experience with us. 26:39 We are happy that we were able to exceed your expectation. 26:43 Thank you all. 26:46 When you flush out that story, you must be impressed by 26:49 what God will do and the lengths 26:51 to which he will go to get the gospel 26:53 before someone who had not turned on a television set 26:56 he told me in decades. 26:58 He's not a TV watcher, does not own a television. 27:01 Has no electricity in his home there on the mountain. 27:05 And who would know, the one night 27:07 that he goes to a hotel, 27:10 turns on a remote control, 27:12 jumps to a couple of channels and watch there a 3ABN. 27:15 It was me interviewing Chris and Lela Lewis, 27:19 just what he needed to hear. 27:20 He heard what he needed to hear, 27:22 at the time he needed to hear it. 27:23 And the Lord blessed. 27:26 And I told Paul when I spoke with him 27:27 just after the meeting, 27:29 that God has brought Adventism into his life 27:32 for specific reason. 27:33 So now he must respond to the call of God on his life, 27:36 and he assured me that he would. 27:39 So how wonderful to know that love of Christ will find ways 27:44 to get the gospel of Jesus, to those who need to hear it 27:47 and who can respond. 27:50 Next is Sorren Alexander Nelson. 27:52 This is another young person from Weimar. 27:54 Weimar came in mass. 27:57 Just about the whole school came to be part 27:59 of Your Best Pathway to Health. 28:01 And Sorren was a young man, 28:03 a freshmen that we wanted to talk to. 28:05 He's got a nice way about himself, nice young man, 28:07 and we thought we'd spend a little time with him. 28:10 This is my interview with Sorren Nelson, 28:12 Sorren Alexander Nelson. 28:16 I'm here with Sorren Alexander Nelson, 28:19 who he stopped in his travels. 28:21 He is a student at Weimar Academy. 28:23 We want to give equal time to Weimar. 28:26 And you see that Weimar jetting back and forth, 28:29 they're moving around doing so much work. 28:31 Sorren, first of all tell us how old you are? 28:34 I am 14 years old. 28:36 And what year in school? 28:37 I'm a freshman at Weimar Academy. 28:39 Alrighty. 28:40 How many young people came from Weimar Academy? 28:44 Over 60. I think 66 students, 65, 67. 28:51 So you pretty much emptied out the school? 28:53 Yes, that is our entire academy. 28:57 So Weimar is in the house in a big way. 29:00 They brought the entire school 29:01 and we praise the Lord for that. 29:02 Now, were you told what assignments 29:05 you would have before you left to come here, 29:07 or did you get them after you arrived? 29:09 Half of them, I did get before I arrive. 29:12 But most of my assignments have been afterwards. 29:16 Was that the way for most of the young people 29:18 they knew what they were going to do, 29:19 or they kind of surprised when they got here? 29:21 Most of them knew what they were going to do 29:25 like about half didn't know. 29:27 Alrighty. 29:28 Was it more than you expected, less than you expected, 29:32 exactly what you've expected, 29:33 now that you in day number two of your experience? 29:38 I'm actually just amazed by how large it is. 29:41 I really, I'm just amazed 29:45 about how many doctors are here, 29:46 and how many people are here willing to help. 29:50 So it is much larger than I expected. 29:55 Now tell me exactly what your assignment is 29:57 and what you are doing, and who you are helping? 29:59 So, I worked in the children's department, 30:03 which means I watch over the kids 30:06 of some of the volunteers that are here. 30:08 And also currently, I'm working with PAD, 30:12 which we go around, 30:13 and help people sort of help them 30:17 navigate across this area. 30:20 Very, very good. 30:22 Now I'm gonna ask you... 30:25 You got good smile, good face, you are friendly looking guy. 30:31 Is this giving out to them, bringing back 30:35 a blessing to you, you know what I mean? 30:36 Sometimes when you give out, you get back. 30:39 Is that what's happening in your experience? 30:41 I think so, I really feel just, 30:44 really happy helping all of this people. 30:46 I just feel amazing. 30:47 So I think it's great that we're helping all these people 30:50 for free, so. 30:52 Great. 30:53 Is there any experience or any person 30:55 that you've met that kind of stands out in your mind, 30:56 that you kind of remember from this experience so far? 30:59 We are on day two, you've got one more day, 31:00 but you've been out for day and half now, 31:02 so is there anyone who stands out in your mind? 31:05 I think working with children... 31:10 is mostly what I do, but... 31:13 I think just the children mostly. 31:16 Not really any one specific, mostly just the children. 31:18 Just working with them, 31:20 they have much more energy than I do. 31:26 So... 31:30 Mostly the children I think. 31:32 Okay, you're moving away from here, 31:33 come on back home, there we go. 31:35 One last question. 31:37 As far as young people are concern 31:41 doing this kind of work, say there's some young person 31:44 who is watching this and they're not sure, 31:45 "I don't know, if I want to go down there 31:46 and be a part of that kind of thing." 31:48 What would you say as far as your experience is concerned 31:51 to encourage another young person, 31:52 "Hey this is some stuff, 31:54 and you'll get a blessing from it." 31:56 It's actually not, it's not as hard as you think 32:01 it would be being a volunt... 32:03 just volunteering here. 32:04 Like it's very tiring but it's worth it, 32:08 definitely worth it. 32:10 Every minute being here, I think is worth it. 32:13 Helping people, guiding people around. 32:16 I think it's a great opportunity 32:20 to help people... 32:25 to help people who need medical attention. 32:26 Great. 32:27 What time you're getting up in the morning, 32:29 what time you're going to bed at night? 32:30 I just get up at about five in the morning, 32:33 and go to bed to at about ten. 32:38 Are you keeping those same hours now that you are here? 32:41 Yes, yes. 32:45 Well, you got one more day, half of this day and tomorrow. 32:50 Are you guys staying through the Sabbath service 32:52 or you're heading back to Weimar? 32:54 We're actually leaving on Friday, 32:55 Friday afternoon or Friday evening, so. 32:59 With the lot of great stories and lot of great memories, 33:01 do you think? 33:02 Yes, definitely, I'm going to definitely remember this, 33:06 so... 33:07 I think everyone at Weimar's 33:09 going to remember this experience. 33:12 Sorren Alexander Nelson, freshmen? 33:15 Yes, freshmen.

Wow. 37:35 And, you know, I mean all along I had up to that point, 37:39 I had lost all of my family members, 37:42 all of them had died. 37:45 I say I had a little four pod animal 37:49 who had been alive with all of my family members. 37:52 And she ended up dying when I was flat in my back. 37:59 So I had not truly, nothing but God. 38:03 And, but I didn't realize it at that time. 38:06 You know, when you're flat on your back, 38:08 the only place you can look is up. 38:09 Absolutely. Absolutely. Absolutely. 38:12 You got to look up. 38:13 You know I think it's interesting 38:15 because I had the same experience 38:16 when I was out of the church, 38:18 where I got joined very, very early. 38:19 But playing basketball on the Sabbath, 38:21 on a basketball scholarship, but wouldn't eat pork, 38:24 you know, partying on Friday night 38:25 but wouldn't drink, 38:27 you know, you kind of put this little false things in your, 38:29 and they kind of give you 38:30 a little bit of a sense of security 38:33 that you're not so bad, but you really are. 38:37 And you're really out of the truth. 38:38 So now, you end up flat on your back for how long? 38:43 It was a little over eight months. 38:45 Eight months and, you know, through some of the things 38:49 that I went through, they weren't sure that I would ever 38:51 return to help to where I could go back to work 38:55 or do anything, so. 38:58 What was your mental state, were you angry at God? 39:02 Were you angry at yourself? 39:03 What was going on in your head 39:05 during eight months of bed rest? 39:07 Well, I was depressed. 39:09 And I think a lot of it had to do 39:10 with the pain that I was in 39:12 'cause I was in a lot of physical pain, 39:13 but I refused to take drugs, 39:15 because being a mental health nurse, 39:18 I've decided, you know, 39:19 I've seen too many people addicted. 39:21 The first doctor that I went to 39:23 wanted to give me norco and oxy, 39:25 and all kinds of stuff and I was like, man, 39:28 if he had done this a few months ago, 39:30 maybe I would have, I don't know, 39:31 I don't think so, but, you know, 39:33 who knows but at that point I didn't. 39:36 I didn't want to do that. 39:37 So I was in a lot of pain. 39:39 And lot of sleepless nights, even being a night shift nurse, 39:43 it got to the point where I could nap 39:45 a couple hours during the day, but then I was up. 39:48 And I'm telling you tormented. 39:51 And it was during one of those long nights, 39:54 the only friend I had was a TV. 39:56 And I had watched everything on Netflix 39:59 and everything else they had. 40:01 And one night I flipped it and I'm telling you, 40:04 I tuned that TV on and it flipped to 3ABN. 40:07 Now that was a God thing, 40:09 because I was not watching that channel. 40:12 Not at that time even, he didn't even, 40:14 I wasn't even to that point yet. 40:16 But that night I remember and the first thing 40:18 that snapped on, it was Danny Shelton and you. 40:21 And you were talking about, "You can never do anything 40:25 where you can't come back to God, 40:27 nothing's so bad that you can't come back to him." 40:30 And I suspect 20 years out, 40:33 that was the message that you needed at that time. 40:35 Yes. 40:36 And the next one was Pastor Bar, Stephen Bar, 40:41 talking about the unpardonable sin. 40:45 That was the next one I wanted to hear. 40:47 And it went on from there, because I watched everything 40:50 David Asscherick did, everything Ty Gibson did, 40:55 I mean, I could not get off that channel. 40:57 Wow. 40:58 And still now, I don't have regular TV. 41:00 I have my Roku box and my Adventist channels. 41:04 So I've gone totally the other way, you know. 41:06 Praise the Lord. 41:08 Isn't it interesting that God gives you 41:11 what you need at the time you needed. 41:13 You didn't need you're gonna burn in hell kind of message. 41:16 You didn't need bad, bad, bad kind of message. 41:18 You needed someone to tell you, Hey, God loves you still, 41:22 you can't go too far, you can't run too fast, 41:25 and that's precisely what God gave you. 41:26 Yes. 41:28 And, you know, it's kind of like, 41:29 like you said in your sermons that I always use 41:33 with my patients, it's like, you know, we all got stuff. 41:36 And, you know, Lord just says surrender that stuff. 41:38 Yes. 41:40 And we keep on to hold on to it. 41:42 And I used to keep giving him the stuff. 41:44 He put his basket down and I put it all in, 41:47 he take it and I'd say, "Oh, but wait a minute." 41:49 And I take one thing out at a time, 41:51 but finally when I surrendered it all 41:53 and still I struggle with that. 41:55 But when I finally surrendered it all, he says, 41:58 "Now I can do the work." Amen. 42:01 Now you told me the Lord kind of played a little, 42:03 I'll say game with you, 42:04 'cause He wouldn't let you go past 3ABN, 42:06 He kind of stuck you there, didn't He? 42:08 He did. 42:09 I could not, I could not go past that and I'm telling you, 42:14 I got so immersed into it. 42:15 I was handwriting recipes from Micheff Sisters. 42:19 I mean everything that I could get a hold up on 3ABN, 42:24 I was sucking up. 42:25 And I still have notes and journals from your sermons, 42:29 from Danny's messages 42:31 and interviews and Cheri Peters. 42:34 I mean, you guys were all part of my recovering from sin 42:38 and coming back. 42:39 And I think we need to do a 12 step program for sinners, 42:43 'cause wouldn't that be good, we can go into the church 42:45 and we could say stand up and say, "Hi, 42:48 my name is Debby and I am a sinner." 42:49 Wow. 42:51 And then just recover from there, right? 42:52 Yeah. Praise the Lord, wonderful. 42:54 Now, give us a little of clue into what you are doing here, 42:57 you're in the mental health section. 42:58 You've got on your green, 43:00 so that means you're mental health girl, 43:01 so what are you doing here? 43:03 Okay, so what I'm doing is after the patients 43:05 have been completely triaged, they may have gone through 43:11 the main triage here to determine 43:13 what needs they have. 43:15 And they've already seen the psychologist, or therapist, 43:18 or psychiatrist. 43:20 They've already done the testing 43:21 maybe for depression recovery. 43:23 Then they come to me if they are looking for local, 43:28 no charge clinics, mental health clinics 43:31 to keep up with their care. 43:33 Groups, housing, food, shelter, 43:38 those kinds of things. 43:39 We try to connect them with a local church 43:41 if we possibly can. 43:44 Any kind of that, any type of resources 43:46 and then we always ask them 43:49 if they're getting any other services here, 43:52 because we have other services besides the medical 43:55 and a dental and a vision. 43:57 And I always ask the women, did you get a massage today? 44:00 Did you get a mani-pedis 'cause they've got it. 44:02 What about your hair? 44:04 You know, because they're usually the ones 44:06 that are coming through and they're feeling 44:08 like they haven't had that love, you know, 44:11 and something else that we always try to do 44:14 is have prayer with them. 44:16 Excellent. 44:17 You know, and I always ask, I said, 44:19 "Do you mind if I pray for you." 44:23 And they, "Oh, no." 44:25 you'd be surprised. 44:26 They just want to be loved. 44:28 Some of these psych patients have not been loved on 44:31 for a decade or more many decades, not even touch. 44:35 That's what I wanted to talk you about 44:36 because I've been talking with other people here 44:39 and saying that the smile, 44:41 the hug, the pat on the back is important 44:45 as the medical treatment 44:46 because of the mental state that people come. 44:48 Now as we all know mental health 44:50 has this kind of little aura, 44:52 this little treatment and one of the things 44:54 I see from you is a Godly Spirit. 44:56 And I think that is as important 44:58 to the treatment as the practical part 45:02 of during recovery, do you not think so? 45:05 Well, absolutely, I mean, you know, 45:06 I guess it goes back to my training as a child. 45:09 And at Loma Linda that it's mind, body and spirit, 45:13 is it not? 45:15 And if we take, we know that 45:16 all illnesses start in the mind. 45:18 Yeah. Yeah. 45:19 So if we could get the mind healthy, 45:21 we probably wouldn't have the comorbidities 45:23 of hypertension and diabetes, and the rest of it, right? 45:27 I mean we really wouldn't. 45:29 But, yes, absolutely. 45:31 And just really loving on these people, you know, 45:35 even if you just you say, "Hi, how are you? 45:37 My name is Debbi." 45:39 I always make sure that I shake their hand, 45:41 when they come in, 45:42 because like I said for decades, 45:44 these people may have never had anybody touch them, 45:48 you know, so. 45:49 Debbi, thank you so very much. 45:51 Thank you so very much for the story. 45:53 And we are so pleased that 3ABN 45:55 played a part in your recovery, 45:57 and you are coming back to the Lord. 45:58 And you're doing a great work here, 46:00 and keep that smile and that beautiful spirit. 46:02 I certainly will. 46:03 Thank you and so very nice to meet you, 46:06 'cause you were part of it. 46:08 Praise the Lord. Thank you. 46:12 Again, so nice to know that when you're flat on your back 46:14 and you're gonna only look up, 46:16 you could look into the face of God. 46:17 And then God provides you with something 46:19 that will bring you back to Him. 46:22 One of the things that we've found that the various 46:25 in Your Best Pathways to Health clinics and seminars, 46:30 is that lives that are touched physically of times 46:35 have mental ramifications that are positive 46:38 which opens the door for the entrance of the gospel, 46:42 and spiritual things and we see that continuum 46:45 happening over and over again. 46:49 I'm told that there were some 1500 or so surgeries 46:52 that took place during the course of this 46:54 Your Best Pathway to Health, Los Angeles, 46:57 White Memorial Hospital, 46:58 Loma Linda Hospital, Glendale Adventist Hospital. 47:01 Doctors representing those institutions 47:03 are our good friend Schubert Palmer 47:05 and other doctors were doing surgeries 47:07 there and giving medical advice 47:09 along with the other various services, 47:11 but there are some people 47:13 who came in with chronic expressions of illness 47:18 that really had dogged their lives. 47:19 There was young man who we don't have time 47:21 to show on this one, 47:22 who had large keloids on his ears to the point 47:25 that he always wore a Hil hoody, 47:26 he always had his ears covered 'cause of this big growth on 47:29 his ears and those growths were taken off, 47:32 he could not afford to have that done. 47:33 And he had always shied away from health and wellness 47:37 and certainly Christians, 47:39 because he couldn't afford that. 47:40 And he found Christians to be judgmental. 47:41 Well, when he came to Your Best Pathway, 47:44 he was prayed with, he was helped, 47:45 he was encouraged 47:47 and he had those keloids taken off. 47:48 His life has been changed, 47:50 and now he is open to the entrance of the gospel. 47:52 Our next video is Carolina Herrera, 47:58 again a lovely young woman who had some grows on her neck 48:02 and her chest that were disfiguring, 48:05 that embarrassed her, 48:07 that she had to have her whole life 48:09 she was dealing with these things. 48:10 Well, she came to Your Best Pathway to Health, 48:12 and these things were taken care of 48:13 and when you see the joy on her face 48:16 and the tears in her eyes, 48:17 you know that God has done something very, 48:19 very special for her. 48:21 Well, her physical life has been changed, 48:23 her mental outlook is changed 48:25 and now she is open to the entrance of the gospel. 48:28 And that ladies and gentlemen, is what it is all about. 48:31 We will watch this video, then we go to our newsbreak, 48:34 then we'll come back, 48:36 and put a little bow on this 48:37 and wrap up this particular broadcast. 48:42 Carolina came to us I think, I don't know, 48:46 if she was referred by another physician 48:48 or she came to the door asking for dermatology. 48:50 We are actually having laser services 48:53 on this pathway to health registrar, 48:55 she was sent there. 48:57 I wasn't sure that there is hope for her 48:59 to really get anything done. 49:00 But you know Dr. Prodonovic has seen many patients, 49:04 he's done a lot of derm. 49:06 Take tattoo removal along the way, 49:08 he's seen a lot of skin problems and issues 49:09 for 20 years. 49:11 So I felt like "Hey, there's something 49:14 that can happen with this case." 49:15 I thought I can really handle some of it 49:18 but most of that needed be surgically treated. 49:22 So I referred her back to dermatology 49:26 or plastic surgery. 49:27 She had very, very thick lesions 49:30 that were kind of sticking out. 49:32 And this basically what we call epidermis, 49:34 this is kind of like a congenital hormone birthmark, 49:37 but they come in different shapes, sizes, colors 49:40 and her is pretty much encompass 49:42 at the back of her neck, 49:43 the front and coming down to her chest. 49:46 Since I was born I had it. 49:48 When I was born my mom saw it, she was devastated. 49:54 She couldn't find a way to take it off, you know, 49:57 I heard this on the radio 49:59 that they were having the convention. 50:01 It was just the fact 50:04 that you could do something about it, 50:07 try to take it off, you know, that's what brought me herein. 50:16 You just have to step by step, you know, 50:19 slowly just kind of remove each and every one of it. 50:21 So we get really down to the base of it 50:23 and then in conjunction with laser 50:25 and other modalities, 50:26 we can be able to kind of clear it almost to 100 percent. 50:30 I mean she totally by coincidence 50:34 she turn on the radio, 50:35 she heard about it this morning, 50:37 she got to work, her boss wasn't even there. 50:40 I can never say no to that woman, 50:42 like I can never tell you, you know, what, 50:44 I'm just not gonna come, and never give her an excuse. 50:47 She wasn't there and I was like "Oh, my God, 50:49 well, that makes it easier," 50:50 you know, like I'm just gonna go. 50:52 Like checked in for 10 minutes, checked out. 50:55 Drove all the way from San Bernardino 50:56 which is around Loma Linda area to here in traffic 51:00 to make here to see what can be done, 51:02 and thus after, you know, 20 plus years of having them. 51:10 I never thought like this morning 51:11 when I put on my shoes, I was gonna come and, you know, 51:15 like my life has just completely went 360, 51:18 like it's overwhelming, you know, 51:22 like where other people take for granted 51:26 and, you know, it's like I'm going to have it, 51:28 now, I have a new life. 51:29 And just I'm really grateful 51:31 how everything just fell in order. 51:34 It's just the-- 51:35 to see the impact it had on her emotionally for so long, 51:38 I mean it's all coming out right now. 51:40 Everybody told me, you know, you don't have hope 51:42 like we can't help you, you know, 51:46 maybe even know me right off the bat, 51:47 they're like yes, go, here I'm and still is. 51:51 I just feel like people are beyond angels, 51:53 they're really nice. 51:55 They are really nice. 51:57 To be able to offer the services, 51:58 to be able to in additionally pray with the patients. 52:02 And, you know, I don't know what better work there is. 52:12 Thank you. No problem. 52:14 It's a team effort. 52:16 Oh, that's okay. 52:17 Come up and we'll show you. 52:19 I don't think I would have made it... 52:24 Happy new life. 52:25 I wouldn't have the new life 52:27 but my smiles can be bigger than ever, 52:30 you know, like I just picture myself in my wedding dress, 52:35 I think being able to have my hair, all these, 52:38 Amazing, you know, being able to go to the beach 52:42 and just letting my hair little go crazy, 52:44 you know, it's just being able, it's a new freedom for me. 52:49 And I must too say that. 52:51 I'm very, very happy, beyond everything 52:55 and I just think that was much, you know, I'm very, very happy. 53:00 I feel like a new person. |
