It's an understatement to
say that we have experienced a
00:00:01.96\00:00:03.43
blessing here today with Gideon
Rescue Co. Thank you, guys, so
00:00:03.47\00:00:06.13
much for coming out. And I
think Dana, you have some final
00:00:06.17\00:00:09.87
thoughts for us here.
00:00:09.90\00:00:11.24
Yeah, I just wanted to reiterate
just using what God puts on your
00:00:11.27\00:00:14.94
heart to do. One of
the volunteers that we were
00:00:14.98\00:00:17.08
connected with there, her and
her father were both out working
00:00:17.11\00:00:20.12
you know, tarping homes and
cutting down trees and when she
00:00:20.15\00:00:24.22
went back during Christmas
it was on her heart to fill up
00:00:24.25\00:00:27.12
school bags for kids that
had lost everything that were
00:00:27.16\00:00:29.86
needing to go back to
school after this trauma and
00:00:29.89\00:00:31.73
devastation. And so she started
with five backpacks filling
00:00:31.76\00:00:35.13
those and she told her friends
about it and her friends were
00:00:35.16\00:00:37.53
like this is great, we want to
help too. And then they're like
00:00:37.57\00:00:39.90
you need to put this on
social media. And so she did and
00:00:39.93\00:00:42.64
organizations saw this and
it just multiplied and so right
00:00:42.67\00:00:46.51
after Christmas, we went back
together, well I met up with her
00:00:46.54\00:00:50.18
and her father there and we
went to neighborhoods that we'd
00:00:50.21\00:00:53.28
already been to and distributed
things and we're distributing
00:00:53.31\00:00:56.82
elementary, middle school,
high school and in those are the
00:00:56.85\00:01:00.99
Guideposts magazine also
and My Bible Friends and we're
00:01:01.02\00:01:03.86
praying with these families and
all the rest of them were able
00:01:03.89\00:01:06.43
to donate to the school district
to give out. So again it's just
00:01:06.46\00:01:10.00
another touch but it was what
God put on her heart and in her
00:01:10.03\00:01:12.53
eyesight, these kids need this.
And so whatever God puts on your
00:01:12.57\00:01:17.24
heart to do, you can do
any follow-up. You can continue
00:01:17.27\00:01:20.18
in your own local
community or in disaster zones.
00:01:20.21\00:01:25.28
Don't be intimidated by the
images that we just showed you
00:01:25.31\00:01:28.12
of the helicopters and all those
crazy stories because that had
00:01:28.15\00:01:32.29
nothing to do with us, right?
I mean that's God organizing all
00:01:32.32\00:01:35.69
of that. But you can do stuff in
the simplest form. Like you can
00:01:35.72\00:01:39.93
help. If you can pray with
someone you are a Gideon Rescue
00:01:39.96\00:01:44.73
team member indeed.
00:01:44.77\00:01:46.43
That's right. You know what,
forget Superman, forget Batman,
00:01:46.47\00:01:49.70
forget Spiderman, all the fairy
tale superheroes. These are the
00:01:49.74\00:01:52.77
superheroes right here.
He's the real Super Hero working
00:01:52.81\00:01:56.14
through you guys. Thank you
so much. And thank you so much
00:01:56.18\00:01:58.68
for watching. Until next
time my friends: God bless you.
