Friends, as you know,
00:00:01.36\00:00:02.70
our time comes and
goes too quickly often.
00:00:02.73\00:00:04.70
But we want to just reiterate
00:00:04.73\00:00:06.30
a couple of points
that we feel are imperative
00:00:06.33\00:00:08.74
and important for you to know,
00:00:08.77\00:00:10.37
so that as you think
about supporting Asian Aid,
00:00:10.41\00:00:12.57
you could say that
this is a very worthy
00:00:12.61\00:00:14.34
and thorough organization.
00:00:14.38\00:00:15.88
I was asking
Suni on the break here
00:00:15.91\00:00:17.65
about how they clear children
to be a part of this program.
00:00:17.68\00:00:21.18
Reiterate that briefly for me
00:00:21.22\00:00:22.62
because
sometimes people don't know
00:00:22.65\00:00:23.99
how they are gonna be
involved in that process.
00:00:24.02\00:00:25.75
Yeah, John.
00:00:25.79\00:00:27.12
Once we get in a
new application request
00:00:27.16\00:00:29.72
from the school or usually
00:00:29.76\00:00:31.93
which is coming from the school.
00:00:31.96\00:00:33.60
We send in our field staff
00:00:33.63\00:00:34.96
which we have
about eight of them,
00:00:35.00\00:00:37.03
who walk to the particular area,
00:00:37.07\00:00:39.57
the house of the child,
00:00:39.60\00:00:41.90
verify whether the
need is real or not.
00:00:41.94\00:00:45.44
Because there might be a cases
00:00:45.47\00:00:47.98
where there is much more needed
00:00:48.01\00:00:51.28
requirement by someone else.
00:00:51.31\00:00:54.15
So help is passed on
to that particular person
00:00:54.18\00:00:56.69
only after verifying
everything perfectly.
00:00:56.72\00:01:01.16
So that's good,
00:01:01.19\00:01:02.52
and then the other part of that,
00:01:02.56\00:01:03.89
when that's done,
00:01:03.93\00:01:05.26
then the sponsorship
really kicks in, Jim.
00:01:05.29\00:01:06.63
Just mention that briefly
00:01:06.66\00:01:08.00
because we're
asking for sponsorship.
00:01:08.03\00:01:09.36
Yes, there are many benefits
00:01:09.40\00:01:11.07
besides the
education of the child.
00:01:11.10\00:01:13.54
It's the education of the child,
00:01:13.57\00:01:15.34
you're introducing
them to Jesus, all right.
00:01:15.37\00:01:18.97
And when that child
goes back to their village
00:01:19.01\00:01:21.38
with an education,
it benefits the parents,
00:01:21.41\00:01:24.91
it benefits that village.
00:01:24.95\00:01:27.05
And of course then
your funds are going direct
00:01:27.08\00:01:29.48
to a mission school.
00:01:29.52\00:01:30.99
But the
principle of what we do is,
00:01:31.02\00:01:34.12
we take a child based on need
00:01:34.16\00:01:36.62
and we put them in an
Adventist mission school.
00:01:36.66\00:01:39.29
And then, Suni,
can I call you Suni?
00:01:39.33\00:01:44.47
They have a team of eight
00:01:44.50\00:01:46.17
who their job is
to check that child
00:01:46.20\00:01:49.47
at least three times a year.
00:01:49.50\00:01:51.41
And we do have challenges,
00:01:51.44\00:01:53.78
poor children
move on and the parents
00:01:53.81\00:01:56.44
don't tell the school.
00:01:56.48\00:01:58.05
So yes, occasionally a child,
we don't know where they are,
00:01:58.08\00:02:02.08
but I can assure the viewers
00:02:02.12\00:02:04.25
that our sponsorship
program does everything it can
00:02:04.29\00:02:08.36
to sponsor the child
and the money goes direct
00:02:08.39\00:02:11.23
from our office to
our office in India,
00:02:11.26\00:02:14.33
then direct to the school.
00:02:14.36\00:02:16.03
So over 80 percent
of our funds go direct
00:02:16.06\00:02:19.70
to an Adventist mission school.
00:02:19.73\00:02:21.50
And we're proud of that.
00:02:21.54\00:02:23.07
Praise the Lord,
Brenda, how quickly, 10 seconds.
00:02:23.10\00:02:25.01
Have you been transformed?
00:02:25.04\00:02:26.74
I tell you, I have and I
think I left my heart in India,
00:02:26.78\00:02:29.21
and I encourage every
single viewer to adopt a child,
00:02:29.24\00:02:33.05
sponsor a child from India.
00:02:33.08\00:02:35.22
Well, friends, as you know,
00:02:35.25\00:02:36.58
when the Lord comes back,
00:02:36.62\00:02:37.95
He is not gonna grade us on
how much education we've had,
00:02:37.99\00:02:40.56
but we want to hear this words,
00:02:40.59\00:02:42.02
''Well done thou good
and faithful servant."
00:02:42.06\00:02:44.09
Until we see you again,
00:02:44.13\00:02:45.46
may the Lord richly bless you.
00:02:45.49\00:02:46.96
