05:39 >> LESS GIVE AN AMEN HERE. >> AMEN. 05:42 >> THAT'S WORTHY OF AN AMEN. THANK YOU, JAMIE. 05:51 JAMIE HAS BEEN WITH YOU IN THE FIELD. 05:53 WHAT A MINISTER OF MUSIC. >> HE IS. 05:55 >> THAT'S THE WONDERFUL THING ABOUT THAT. 06:00 BEFORE WE ASK ABOUT, BECAUSE PEOPLE ASK ABOUT SPONSORSHIP, I 06:05 WANT TO GO TO MYANMAR FIRST. >> WE ENTERED MYANMAR THREE 06:15 YEARS AGO AND RIGHT NOW HAVE HIS ABOUT 400 CHILDREN, AND MYANMAR 06:20 USED TO BE CALLED BURMA, IT USED TO BE VERY GOVERNMENT CONTROLLED 06:26 AND THEY FREED IT UP TO GET TO THE CENTER OF THE COUNTRY. 06:29 WE WENT ON A LONG DRIVE. WE WENT UP TO A SCHOOL IN THE 06:32 NORTH AND VISITED THAT BOARDING SCHOOL. 06:36 THEN WE TOOK A LONG DRIVE DOWN THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE COUNTRY 06:39 AND I APOLOGIZE, I FORGET TH NAME OF THE AREA, AND VISITED A 06:44 LARGE SCHOOL, WHICH IS RIGHT UP NEAR THE THAILAND BORDER. 06:50 IT WAS A VERY ARMY AREA WITH SECURITY. 06:54 HERE'S SOME FOOTAGE OF MYANMAR AND SO THE PEOPLE HERE LIVE A 07:02 VERY SIMPLE LIFE, THEY'RE VERY HARD WORKERS. 07:07 THIS IS THE UNION COLLEGE WHERE THEY HAVE EDUCATION BUSINESS 07:15 DEGREES AND THESE ARE THE STUDENTS, VERY HARD WORKERS, 07:22 VERY DISCIPLINED AND VERY HUNGRY TO LEARN. 07:24 YOU MIGHT ASK WHAT'S THAT ON THEIR FACE, IT PROTECTS FROM THE 07:29 SUN, AND IT IS A BIT OF TRADITION THAT THEY WEAR IT FOR 07:34 PROTECTION. THIS IS DR. CONNELLY TAKING THE 07:39 CLASS AT THE MYANMAR UNION COLLEGE. 07:42 >> THEY WERE ALL IN UNIFORM. >> YES, THEY DIDN'T JUST DRESS 07:48 UP FOR US. THAT'S THEIR SCHOOL UNIFORM ALL 07:57 OF THE YEAR ROUND. THAT WAS COMING OUT OF THE 08:00 LIBRARY BUILDING. >> THAT WAS VERY INTERESTING. 08:02 WE ENJOYED BEING ON THIS CAMPUS, THE STUDENTS VERY INTERACTIVE, 08:07 VERY ENERGETIC AND VERY COMMITTED. 08:13 >> YES. >> THE LITTLE THAT THEY HAVE, 08:16 COMMITTED THEMSELVES TO MAKING THE BEST OUT OF IT. 08:19 >> HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN IN MYANMAR? 08:21 >> JUST OVER THREE YEARS. IT WAS MY PRIVILEGE TO PASTOR 08:26 THERE WITH PASTOR WILSON AND HE WAS VERY EXCITED WITH WHAT HE 08:30 SAW. HE RECORD ADD SMALL CLIP. 08:32 >> OK. >> AND WE CAN HAVE A LOOK AT 08:35 THIS CLIP NOW. >> SPONSORING CHILDREN IN 08:49 ACTIVITIES LIKE THESE MISSION SCHOOLS AND OPPORTUNITIES IS A 08:52 TREMENDOUS WAY TO HELP FORM THE CHARACTER OF YOUNG PEOPLE AS 09:03 THEY LOOK TO THE FUTURE. THEY WILL NEVER FORGET THEIR 09:07 ASSOCIATION IN A CHRISTIAN ENVIRONMENT AND MANY WILL BECOME 09:11 MEMBERS OF THE SEVENTH DAY ADVENTIST CHURCH. 09:14 IT IS A POWERFUL WITNESS TO SPONSOR A CHILD IN CHILD IMPACT 09:17 AND SO MANY OTHER ORGANIZATIONS THAT HELP YOUNG PEOPLE FIND 09:27 JESUS. SPONSORING A CHILD NOT ONLY HAS 09:32 SHORT TERM EFFECTS BUT HAS LONG-TERM EFFECTS, INVESTING IN 09:40 A YOUNG PERSON. WE ARE TAPING THIS AT SEMINARY 09:45 AND ABOUT ONE THIRD OF THE STUDENTS OR ONE QUARTER OF 09:49 STUDENTS ARE BEING SPONSORED BY CHILD IMPACT PEOPLE WHO BECOME 10:00 WORKERS IN GOD'S CHURCH, PEOPLE HAVE BEEN SPONSORED. 10:05 YOUR SPONSORSHIP IS ABSOLUTELY AN INVESTMENT IN THE FUTURE OF 10:09 THE CHURCH. >> THAT WAS GOOD TO HAVE ELDER 10:24 WILSON THERE. HE HAS ON THE TRADITIONAL GARB. 10:27 >> HE IS. HE IS. 10:28 THEY HAD A BIG CELEBRATION ON AND YOU CAN IMAGINE HAVING THE 10:35 GC PRESIDENT THERE, THAT IS VERY RARE FOR THEM AND THERE WERE 10:39 JUST THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE THAT CAME OUT, AND IT WAS REAL 10:43 EXCITING TO BE THERE THAT DAY. IT WAS A PRIVILEGE. 10:46 WE TRAVELED TO TWO OR THREE PLACE IN MYANMAR WITH HIM, AND 10:50 IT GAVE ME AN IN SIGHT TO HOW THE CHURCH LEADERSHIP WORKS, AND 10:55 HE WAS VERY KIND AND SUPPORTIVE AND WE'RE VERY EXCITED FOR 11:08 MYANMAR. THESE KIDS ARE VERY COMMITTED. 11:12 THEY'RE ALSO HARD WORKERS, THE SCHOOLS HAVE GARDENS AND WHERE 11:18 WE VISITED, UP BY THE THAILAND BORDER, THOSE KIDS, YOU COULD 11:23 SEE THEY WERE VERY COMMITTED AND YOU COULD SEE THE SPIRIT 11:34 ANOTHER. THE GOOD THING ABOUT THAT 11:36 SCHOOL, THERE WERE YOUNG TEACHERS THERE. 11:38 REMEMBER THE FACT THAT THERE WERE YOUNG TEACHERS WHO HAD 11:42 GRADUATE AND THEY WERE TEACHING AT THAT SCHOOL. 11:44 IT WAS JUST A SHINING EXAMPLE. THINGS ARE A BIT TOUGH THERE. 11:48 I KNOW YOU WEREN'T TOO IMPRESSED WITH THE GIRLS DORMITORY AND 11:52 SOME OF THE CONDITIONS. BUT, IN FACT THE GIRLS DEAN WAS 12:05 AN EXGRADUATING STUDENT AND WHEREVER AN GEE GOES, SHE TAKES 12:09 20 SUITCASE OF CLOTHING AND SHE WAS HANDING OUT CLOTHING TO THE 12:16 GIRLS SO WE'RE VERY PROUD OF THE CHILDREN WE SPONSOR EVERYWHERE. 12:31 BUT THE RICE AND HEALTH APPEAL IS GOING TO BE HELPING THESE 12:37 KIDS. I TELL YOU, THEY ARE STRUGGLING 12:39 RIGHT NOW, SOME OF THEM ARE GOING HUNGRY, SALT RICE AND 12:43 HEALTH APPEAL WILL ALSO HELP THE SCHOOL THAT YOU JUST SAW IN 12:47 THERE WHEN IT OPENS. IS MY SPONSORSHIP MONEY SAFE IF 12:59 SOMEONE WAS TO GIVE MONEY TO HELP A CHILD, IS THAT MONEY 13:04 SAFE? >> YES. 13:05 THE MONEY COMES TO US AND WE ONLY RELEASE THE MONEY MONTH FOR 13:11 CHILDREN THAT ARE AT SCHOOL. ALL RIGHT? 13:13 SO IT GOES FROM US TO THE PARTNER WHO SEPTEMBER IT DIRECT 13:18 TO THE SCHOOL. ALL RIGHT? 13:20 SO ANYONE WHO'S PAID IN ADVANCE OR ANYONE WHO'S GIVEN US MONEY, 13:25 IT'S HELD HERE IN THE U.S., IN OUR TRUST ACCOUNT, IT CAN ONLY 13:31 BE USED FOR THAT AND WE RELEASE IT MONTH, SO IT GOES DIRECT TO 13:36 OUR PARTNER IN COUNTRY AND PROBABLY TAKES ANOTHER WEEK OR 13:40 TWO TO GET TO THE SCHOOL, SO IT'S A VERY SIMPLE PIPELINE, 13:44 THERE AREN'T TO LOT OF PEOPLE INVOLVED. 13:45 >> OH, GOOD. >> AND TO BE HONEST, IT DOESN'T 13:50 EVEN GO THROUGH THE CHURCH SYSTEM, IT'S FROM US TO OUR 13:56 PARTNER TO THE SCHOOL. THERE'S A LIST OF NAMES. 14:04 THAT'S ONE THING WHEN I STARTED WITH WHAT WAS IN ASIAN AID, 14:08 FIRST THING I THOUGHT COMING FROM A BUSINESS BACKGROUND, 14:14 WHERE'S THIS MONEY GOING. >> YEAH. 14:16 >> IT'S ONE THING I CAN DO. I CAN LOOK THE DONOR IN THE EYE 14:21 AND SAY THE FUNDS ARE AS SAFE AS YOU CAN HOPE FOR THEM. 14:24 IT'S A THIRD WORLD COUNTRY. WHAT HAPPENS IF THE SCHOOL ITEMS 14:28 IS NOT PERFECT, BUT I CAN ASSURE YOU THAT THE FUNDS GO DIRECTLY 14:32 TO THE SCHOOL. >> THAT'S GOOD, THAT'S GOOD. 14:35 >> WHAT ABOUT THE TEACHERS, HOW DO YOU SELECT THE GUARDIANSHIP, 14:38 THE DEANS, THE TEACHERS? >> WELL, WE DON'T RUN THE 14:43 SCHOOLS, ANGELA, THE SCHOOLS ARE RUN BY THE CHURCH, SO THE CHURCH 14:50 EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM PICKS THE STAFF, SO THEY RUN THE SCHOOL 14:53 JUST LIKE HERE IN AMERICA, SOMETIMES THE CHURCH SUPPORTS 14:57 THE SCHOOL, SO WE ARE NOT INVOLVED. 15:00 NOW WE'RE TAKING A STRONGER LEAD IN SOME SCHOOLS, BECAUSE THINGS 15:04 HAVEN'T BEEN QUITE HOW WE HOPED, AND SO WE DO TAKE A STRONG 15:11 OVERVIEW, BUT THE TEACHERS AND THE STAFF ARE EMPLOYEES OF THE 15:16 CHURCH. >> OH. 15:18 OK, THAT'S GOOD. >> AND THE MONEY IS SAFE. 15:20 THAT'S GOOD TO KNOW. >> YEAH. 15:22 >> NOW YOU'RE ON THE BUSINESS END OF THIS, TOO, SO HOW DO WE, 15:27 WHEN YOU THINK ABOUT SONS SORG, DO I PICK WHERE I WANT THAT TO 15:37 GO TO? >> IF YOU WANT TO SPONSOR A 15:40 CHILD, YOU CAN SEND A CHECK, YOU CAN SEND A MONEY ORDER BY MALE 15:43 TO OUR PO BOX, BUT YOU CAN ALSO GET, YOU GET TO CHOOSE THE CHILD 15:47 THAT YOU WANT TO SPONSOR IF YOU GO ON OUR WEBSITE, SO THAT IS 15:51 THE ADVANTAGE OF SPONSORING ON LINE, THAT YOU GET TO KIND OF 15:55 SEE THE CHILDREN THAT ARE AVAILABLE FOR SPONSORSHIP READ A 15:59 BIOGRAPHY OF THAT CHILD AND THEN SPONSOR THAT CHILD, NOW, THERE'S 16:04 NOT A HIERARCHY FOR NEED FOR ALL OF THE CHILDREN THAT ARE IN OUR 16:09 PROGRAM. ALL OF THEM ARE IN NEED, SO 16:12 SOMETIMES DONORS CALL AND THEY SAY PLEASE GIVE ME THE CHILD 16:15 MOST IN NEED, AND THAT IS JUST REALLY HARD TO CHOOSE BECAUSE 16:20 ALL OF THEM ARE IN NEED. >> THAT'S RIGHT, THAT'S RIGHT. 16:22 >> SOME SPONSORS REALLY DEVELOP A PERMANENT RELATIONSHIP WITH 16:28 THEIR SPONSOR CHILD SO THEY REALLY WANT TO KNOW ABOUT THEM, 16:31 TO READ THEIR BUYING REACH ON LINE ON OUR WEBSITE AND CHOOSE 16:35 THEIR CHILD. THEY CAN CALL BY PHONE AND WE 16:43 WILL ASSIGN THEM A CHILD AND SEND THEM THE CHILD'S PROFILE 16:48 AND ALL THE INFORMATION THE SPONSOR NEEDS TO SHARE LETTERS, 16:51 SO SHARE CORRESPONDENCE WITH THAT CHILD. 16:54 THE SPONSOR RECEIVES AND APR ONCE A YEAR, AN ANNUAL PROGRESS 16:59 REPORT AS WELL AS LETTERS AND THE SPONSOR IS ABLE TO SEND 17:02 GIFTS TO THE CHILD TWICE A YEAR THROUGH OUR GIFT PROGRAM. 17:05 >> CAN THE CHILD RESPOND? >> YES, THE CHILD RESPONDS TO 17:09 THE LETTERS FROM THE DONOR, SO THE LETTERS THAT THE DONOR 17:12 SENDS, THEY SEND IT THROUGH, THEY CAN SEND IT DIRECTLY TO OUR 17:17 FIELD OFFICE IN EACH COUNTRY, THE FIELD OFFICE SEND THAT IS 17:20 LETTER TO EACH SCHOOL FOR THE SCHOOL TO DELIVER TO THE CHILD, 17:23 SO THE CHILD HOLDS THE SPONSOR'S LETTERS AND READ THEM AND 17:28 THEY'RE ABLE TO REPLY, AS WELL, TO THE SPONSOR. 17:32 >> OH, I LIKE THAT. >> WE HAVE TO BE CAREFUL, 17:35 THERE'S A LOT OF CHILD PROTECTION ISSUES, SO WE DO 17:38 EVERYTHING WE CAN TO PROTECT THE PRIVACY OF THE DONOR AND THE 17:44 CHILD, SO WE'RE VERY OPEN THAT WE READ EVERY LETTER. 17:50 SOMEONE HAS TO VET THE LETTERS, FOR INSTANCE FROM THE SPONSOR, 17:53 WE DON'T WANT TO YOU INCLUDE PHONE NUMBERS OR YOUR EMAIL 17:57 ADDRESSES. >> GOOD POINT. 17:58 >> BECAUSE THEN YOU'LL BE -- YOU DON'T WANT EVERYONE IN INDIA 18:03 RINGING YOU, AND, BUT WE DO ENCOURAGE YOU TO PUT A NICE 18:09 PICTURE, NOT TO SHOW THE BIG HOUSE YOU LIVE IN, BUT A PICTURE 18:12 OF THE FAMILY OR YOUR DOG OR WHATEVER, AND LIKEWISE WITH THE 18:18 CHILDREN. WE WNT TO MAKE SURE THAT 18:20 THEY'RE NOT BEGGING FOR MONEY OR SAYING INAPPROPRIATE THINGS OR 18:25 WHATEVER, BUT THE CORRESPONDENCE IS REALLY A DELIGHT TO READ, ALL 18:30 RIGHT? IT'S JUST EXCITING, AND I'VE 18:32 BEEN TO VISIT SPONSORS AND LETTERS FROM THE GIRL THEY 18:42 SPONSOR, AND WE'RE ALSO HOPING TO GO ON LINE WITH OUR NEW 18:46 DATABASE THAT YOU'LL BE ABLE TO TYPE A LETTER AND IT WILL GO 18:49 THROUGH ELECTRICALLY. >> OH, THAT WOULD BE NICE. 18:52 >> YEAH. >> THAT'S GOOD. 18:53 I NEVER THOUGHT ABOUT THAT, THE SAFETY OF THE CHILD, BECAUSE YOU 18:57 MINGED IT'S KIND OF LIKE PRISON MINISTRY SOMEWHAT, THE 19:01 SIMILARITY, YOU DON'T WANT TO HAVE HIS INAPPROPRIATE 19:03 CORRESPONDENCE, BECAUSE REMEMBER YEARS AGO. 19:05 >> OK, I KNEW YOU'D TELL US, GO AHEAD. 19:09 >> IN FLORIDA, WE WERE INVOLVED WHEN WE LIVED IN FLORIDA YEARS 19:14 AGO, AND A GUY, ONE OF THE INMATES SENT A HUGE CARD. 19:19 >> BIG GIANT CARD. >> TO THE MINISTRY AND HE SAID 19:22 THE LORD TOLD ME THAT ANGELA IS SUPPOSED TO BE MY WIFE. 19:26 WELL, WE WERE MARRIED AT THE TIME. 19:30 [ LAUGHTER ] >> SO BUT THAT'S WHAT YOU'RE 19:33 TALKING ABOUT. >> WE HAVE TO PROTECT THE CHILD, 19:37 AND WE ALSO NEED TO PROTECT THE SPONSOR. 19:43 WE DO OUR BEST, ALL RIGHT? IT'S WHAT WE DO. 19:47 >> ONE OF THE OTHER QUESTIONS IS NOW THIS IS SOMETHING HAPPENING 19:51 HERE IN AMERICA, SO WE HAVE TO ADDRESS THIS, BECAUSE IF IT 19:55 HAPPENED IN ANY ONE OF THE COUNTRIES YOU'RE WORKING IN, 19:58 WHAT HAPPENS IF TH CHILD DOESN'T RETURN TO SCHOOL. 20:00 WE ARE VERY WORRIED WHAT WILL HAPPEN AFTER THE PANDEMIC. 20:05 PARENTS ARE GOING TO BE HESITANT. 20:08 WE HAVE PEOPLE THAT WERE HOMESCHOOLED HERE. 20:12 THERE MAY BE POVERTY. THE CHILDREN MAY NOT RETURN TO 20:15 SCHOOL. HOW MANY WILL THERE BE? 20:16 WE DON'T KNOW. IT'S VERY SIMPLE. 20:20 IF THE CHILD DOESN'T RETURN TO SCHOOL, NOW I'LL EXPLAIN IT 20:25 ANOTHER WAY. WE'VE PUT IN PLACE A SYSTEM SO 20:32 WHEN THE SCHOOL OPENS, WE WILL KNOW, IT WILL BE ACTIVATED, WHEN 20:35 A CHILD RETURNS, IT WILL BE ACTIVATED WEEKLY, SO AT ANY 20:39 TIME, WE WILL KNOW WHAT SCHOOLS ARE OPEN, AND WHAT CHILDREN ARE 20:44 THERE. NOW THERE WILL BE A CERTAIN 20:45 POINT THAT IF THE CHILD HASN'T RETURNED WE WILL DO OUR BEST TO 20:53 TRACK THEM DOWN, BUT SOME ARE NOT GOING TO RETURN AND HOW MANY 21:00 I DON'T KNOW. I THINK WE WOULD BE FOOLING 21:04 OURSELVES TO SAY THEY ARE ALL COMING BACK. 21:07 AFTER WE FOLLOW THROUGH A SPECIFIC CHECK PROCESS, SADLY 21:10 WE'LL HAVE TO SAY TO THE DONOR, YOUR CHILD HASN'T RETURNED. 21:13 WE ALWAYS HAVE DROPS. THESE ARE FROM POOR FAMILIES. 21:20 THEY HAVE TO MOVE TO GET WORK. IT HAPPENS. 21:33 THE SPONSOR CAN EITHER ACCEPT THE CHILDAR THEY CAN STOP THEIR 21:38 SPONSORSHIP AND IF THERE'S ANY MONEY BEING PAID, WE'RE HAPPY TO 21:42 REFUND IT. SO WE'RE GOING TO DO OUR BEST TO 21:46 KEEP TRACK OF ALL THE CHILDREN. THE SCHOOL'S OPEN, IS MY CHILD 22:06 BACK, AND WE CAN SAY YES, THEY ARE OR NO, THEY'RE NOT, AND 22:10 WE'RE GOING TO DO OUR BEST. >> FEEL NEGLECTED. 24:11 >> BECAUSE THEY'RE NOT AT SCHOOL, THEY'RE NOT ABLE TO GET 24:15 THROUGH THIS STORM, THROUGH THIS PANDEMIC. 24:17 >> THAT'S GOOD PROGRAM. LIKE PARENTS, FOLLOWING THE 24:25 CHILDREN. >> THE ACCOUNTABILITY IS GREAT. 24:27 TO SEE THEM THROUGH, SOME OF THE CHILDREN THAT FINISH COME BACK 24:31 AND BECOME TEACHERS. REMEMBER ASKING THAT STUDENT WHY 24:35 DID YOU COME BACK SO EDUCATED, YOU COULD DO ANYTHING YOU WANT. 24:40 SHE SAID THIS CHANGED MY LIFE, I WANT TO DO SOMETHING TO CHANGE 24:43 SOMEBODY ELSE'S LIFE. THERE ARE RECIPROCATING 24:48 BLESSINGS THAT COME OUT OF THIS PROGRAM. 24:51 >> THE GIRLS, THEY ALL TOOK A BATH IN THIS BIG GIANT -- WHAT 24:56 WAS IT. LIKE A POOL, ALL THE GIRLS BATHE 24:59 THAT IN? IT WAS VERY DIFFERENT, AND I 25:02 CAN'T REMEMBER THE NAME OF THAT SCHOOL, BUT I WAS LIKE WOW. 25:05 >> THAT WAS IN MYANMAR. >> IT WAS MYANMAR. 25:12 >> OVERCROWDED. >> YEAH. 25:15 >> BUT WE HAVE SUNRISE, DON'T WE? 25:21 LET'S LOOK AT THE SUNRISE. >> BEFORE WE GO TO THE SCREEN, 25:25 LET ME TALK ABOUT SUNRISE. WHEN I FIRST JOINED WHAT WAS 25:30 THEN ASIAN AID, THEY TOOK ME AND SAID WE HAVE GOT SUNRISE 25:36 ORPHANAGE. I WALKED IN, WE ARRIVED LATE, WE 25:41 ARRIVED ADD NIGHT. HERE WAS A ROOM 20-FOOT WIDE BY 25:44 30 OR 40-FOOT WIDE AND ALL THE KIDS WERE ASLEEP ON THE FLOOR, 25:49 ALL CLOSE ON THE FLOOR. TO ME, IT WAS SO HARD, AND I 25:52 SAID WE'VE GOT TO CHANGE THIS AND THE NEXT DAY THEY SAID WE 26:00 HAVE A PROPERTY AND W WENT OUT AND SAW THE LAND. 26:03 WITH THE HELP OF 3ABN VIEWERS AND SUPPORTERS, WE BUILT AN 26:09 ORPHANAGE THAT WE'RE SO PROUD OF AND LET'S HAVE A LOOK AT SOME OF 26:13 THE FOOTAGE OF THE ORPHANAGE NOW. 26:16 >> OK, LET'S SEE IT. >> THERE IT IS. 26:18 >> SUNRISE. >> THAT WAS A SCHOOL WHERE MY 26:22 CHICKEN WAS. >> WAS IT? 26:24 >> SUNRISE. >> SUNRISE ORPHANAGE, WE'VE LOST 26:30 THE PICTURE HERE. >> WHAT'S HAPPENING HERE? 26:33 >> THE KITCHEN, WE SEE THE CHILDREN. 26:37 >> THIS IS THE KIDS HAVING A MEAL. 26:38 I'M NOT SURE WHICH MEME IT IS, BUT AS YOU CAN SEE AND HERE THEY 26:42 ARE GETTING ON THE SCHOOL BUS, AND THEY'RE GOING TO THE TOWN 26:47 CALLED DOUBLY TO GO TO SCHOOL. WE HAVE A LOVELY COUPLE HERE 27:05 THAT YOU'VE MET. WE'LL TALK ABOUT THEM IN A 27:08 MOMENT. THESE ARE VERY CHILDREN FROM 27:12 TERRIBLE BACKGROUNDS. THEY'VE BEEN DESERTED, THEY'VE 27:22 BEEN LEFT. THEY HAVE SOLO PARENTS. 27:33 IT'S A DELIGHT TOGO TO SUNRISE. >> THIS IS A SCHOOL WE WERE 27:38 DOING SOME SONG SERVICE OUTSIDE, SINGING, ALL THE GIRLS WERE 27:43 OUTSIDE. >> SUNRISE IS OUT IN THE 27:47 COUNTRY. IT'S GOT ABOUT 10 ACRES OF 27:49 FARMLAND AND RIGHT NOW WE ARE PUTTING IN THE CROPS. 27:53 HERE'S AN OVERVIEW OF SUNRISE. IF WE JUST KEEP THIS ON THE 27:57 SCREEN ON THE LEFT IS THE KITCHEN AND THE GIRLS DORM 28:02 STORY, ON THE RIGHT IS THE BOYS DORM TRI AND THE BOTTOM IS THE 28:07 STAFF. THIS WAS TAKEN FROM THE WATER 28:13 TOWER. >> WE'RE VERY PROUD OF THE HOME 28:18 THEY RUN. IT'S A DELIGHT TO GO THERE, AND 28:24 OVER THE YEARS THE 3ABN VIEWERS HAVE BEEN VERY SUPPORTIVE OF 28:31 THIS HOME, BUT I WAS THERE IN JANUARY, AND IT'S JUST A 28:36 DELIGHT. I WANT TO TELL YOU ABOUT A 28:39 LITTLE GIRL CALLED LACKS MEELE. >> HE WE FOUND THEM. 29:08 HE WAS THE BEST PICK POCKET, HE WAS STREET SMART, BUT HE WAS 29:12 VERY PROTECTIVE OF HIS SISTER. WHEN THEY ARRIVED, IT WAS TENSE, 29:18 BUT TO SEE THEM NOW IS SUCH A DELIGHT, AND TO SEE LAKSHMI, 29:24 SHE'S GROWING, WHEN I WAS THERE, SHE CAME UP AND HELD MY HAND, 29:28 AND THERE'S AN EXAMPLE OF HIS THEY HAD NO HOPE, THERE WAS A 29:34 HIGH CHANCE THAT LAKSHMI COULD BE TRAFFICKED AND THAT'S 29:44 TYPICAL. THERE'S CHILDREN WITH BOTH 29:46 PARENTS EVER DIED, CHILDREN THAT HAVE BEEN FOUND LIVING IN THE 29:49 JUNGLE. THERE'S DESERTED CHILDREN. 29:52 THERE'S ACTUALLY NOW VERY STRICT CRITERIA BY THE INDIAN 29:55 GOVERNMENT THAT THEY HAVE TO BE A TRUE ORPHAN, AND THERE HAS TO 30:01 BE A CHECKING PROCESS, BECAUSE OF THEIR PARENTS ARE ALIVE, 30:07 UNFORTUNATELY WE EVER TO DO OUR BEST TO GET THEM BACK TO THEIR 30:10 PARENTS, BUT IN MOST CASES, THAT DOESN'T HAPPEN, BUT SUNRISE IS 30:19 NOW REGISTERED WITH THE GOVERNMENT AND WE'RE VERY PROUD 30:22 OF SUNRISE AND OVER THE YEARS, BECAUSE WE BUILT THAT FROM 30:26 SCRATCH AND PEOPLE HAVE GIVEN A LOT OF FUNDS. 30:28 I WAS THERE IN JANUARY, AND IT WAS JUST A DELIGHT. 30:31 >> THAT WAS ONE OF HIS OUR MY POINTS. 30:34 >> IT WAS. >> WAS SUNRISE. 30:36 THE STUDENTS, NOW THEY'RE NO BLIND. 30:39 HAVE YOU BEEN TO SUN RISES YET? >> I WENT TO SUNRISE. 30:41 >> TELL US YOUR IMPRESSION THAT HAVE. 30:43 >> IT'S A TRULY SPECIAL PLACE. I REMEMBER WHEN I GOT THERE, 30:47 SINCE I WAS YOUNG ENOUGH, ALL OF THE CHILDREN CALLED ME BROTHER. 30:50 I HIS THEY CALLED JIM, WHAT DID THEY CALL YOU, UNCLE, RIGHT? 30:56 AND THEY CALLED ME BROTHER. THEY REALLY JUST TOOK ME IN AS 31:00 ONE OF THEIR OWN, AND IT REALLY, IT'S RUN LIKE A FAMILY. 31:04 THEY'RE ALL BROTHERS AND SISTERS AND RAJ AND ELITA ARE THEIR 31:16 PARENTS. THEY HAD AN OLDER STUDENT THAT 31:18 HAD GROWN UP AT SUNRISE WHO WAS STUDYING HOSPITALITY AND 31:22 MANAGEMENT IN THE CITY. HE WAS IN COLLEGE ALREADY. 31:24 THEY HAD HIM COME TO THE ORPHANAGE. 31:27 HE WAS ON VACATION FROM SCHOOL, AND COOK PASTA AND COOK STUFF 31:31 THAT THEY THOUGHT I WOULD LIKE, BECAUSE MAYBE THEY DIDN'T LIKE 31:37 THE SPICY FOOD FROM INDIA. WE BECAME FRIENDS, WE WERE 31:41 TALKING A LOT AND THEN RAJ TOLD ME HIS STORY. 31:47 IT WAS ACTUALLY VERY, VERY SAD AND I COULD NOT IMAGINE A CHILD 31:51 THAT HAD GONE THROUGH THAT AND BEING AT SUN RIDES, BEING SO 31:56 HAPPY, LEARNING TO COOK AND BEING IN COLLEGE, IT WAS AN 31:59 AMAZING STORY BECAUSE RAJ TOLD ME HE HAD BEEN FOUND AS A 32:07 3-YEAR-OLD NEAR A DUMPSTER ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AS A 32:13 3-YEAR-OLD. HE WAS JUST A BABY AND GROWING 32:15 UP THROUGH THE HOME BEING AN IMPACT CHILD AND NOW HE'S IN 32:19 COLLEGE AND WE WERE TALKING AND HE WAS COOKING, AND IT WAS 32:22 GREAT. >> THAT'S ONE OF THE MIRACLE 32:23 STORIES OF THE SCHOOL. A LOT OF TIMES PEOPLE HEAR ABOUT 32:27 HOW THE SCHOOL GOT STARTED, THEY HEAR ABOUT THE FUNDING, THE 32:31 SUPPORT, THE BLIND SCHOOL, THE DEAF SCHOOL, SUN RIDE. 32:35 WE'RE GOING TO GO TO ANOTHER COUNTRY IN A MOMENT HERE BUT 32:39 THESE SUCCESS STORIES KEEP THE PROGRAM GOING. 32:41 I REMEMBER WHEN WE TALKED WHAT DO YOU DO WHEN YOU WAKE UP IN 32:45 THE MORNING AND SOMETIMES YOU TAKE EMERGENCY TRIPS BECAUSE 32:49 WHEN JIM AND I WERE THERE AND WE WERE THERE TOGETHER WITH HIM, I 32:53 REMEMBER WALKING ONE DAY AND WE MET WITH THE FAMILY AND THEY 32:57 SAID IT TROUBLES ME SOMETIMES TO KNOW THAT I LEAVE YOU, WHAT'S 33:01 GOING TO HAPPEN TO THAT CHILD. IT'S NOT ABOUT CHILD IMPACT 33:08 NATIONAL, BUT THE IMPACT ON THE CHILD. 33:10 I CAN NEVER FORGET THAT YOUNG MAN'S NAME. 33:17 WHEN I SAW HIS STORY, THESE ARE THE SUCCESS STORIES OF PEOPLE 33:20 THAT GO OUT THAT ARE VERY WELL IF YOU KNOW ISSUED WITH 33:26 EDUCATION AND IT MAKES A DIFFERENCE. 33:37 >> IF YOU WANT TO CALL IN OR SEND AN EMAIL, SEND IT TO LIVE 33:45 AT 3ABN.TV, DO IT QUICKLY, WE ONLY HAVE A FEW MINUTES LEFT. 33:56 OR THEY CAN CALL. >> SOMEBODY MIGHT EVER A 34:00 QUESTION. >> YEAH. 34:00 >> THAT WE MIGHT, SINCE YOU'RE HERE, WE WANTED TO GET THE 34:05 GREATER BENEFIT INSTEAD OF SENDING YOU AN EMAIL LATER ON. 34:09 TELL US ABOUT ZAMBIA NOW. INSTEAD OF ASIAN AID, WE'RE 34:15 TALKING ABOUT CHILD IMPACT, SO NOW JUMPING CONTINENTS. 34:19 >> WELL WE WERE APPROACHED BY THE ADVENTIST MINISTRY IN ZOMBIE 34:27 I CAN'T RIVERSIDE FARMS, WELL KNOWN TO 3ABN VIEWERS AND 34:34 RIVERSIDE FARMS IS A VERY LARGE FARM THAT'S ACTIVE IN THE ZAMBIA 34:39 AND THE COUNTRY OF ZAMBIA. IT'S A VERY ACTIVE MINISTRY AND 34:43 OUTREACH, AND IT'S BIG BANANA PLANTATION, AND THEY APPROACHED 34:48 US AND SAID WE WANT A FARM, WE WANT A SCHOOL ON THE FARM, AND 34:55 SO THESE ONE DAY BUILDINGS WERE BUILT AND WE NOW HAVE 18 35:00 CHILDREN SPONSORED AT RIVERSIDE FARMS AT THE SCHOOL. 35:04 IT'S A VERY UNIQUE PARTNERSHIP FOR US, BECAUSE TWO MINISTRIES 35:08 HAVE HIS COME TOGETHER, AND IT'S A GREAT PARTNERSHIP FOR US, 35:12 BECAUSE RIVER SITED FARMS IS WELL MANAGED. 35:18 IT'S -- THEY RUN A VERY WELL MANAGED SCHOOL, AND FOR US, 35:23 THEY'RE AN EXCELLENT PARTNER, AND THESE KIDS COME FROM SOME OF 35:28 THEIR PARENTS WORK ON THE FARM, AND THEY ALSO LIVE IN THE LOCAL 35:33 AREA, SO THIS IS A DAY SCHOOL. IT'S NOT A BOARDING SCHOOL, AND 35:40 PEOPLE HAVE BEEN VERY SUPPORTIVE. 35:42 IN FACT, WE HAVE NO CHILDREN AVAILABLE IN ZAMBIA AT THE 35:47 MOMENT, SO WHEN SCHOOL REOPENS, WE'RE GOING TO GET SOME MORE 35:53 CHILDREN FROM ZAMBIA. THIS IS A UNIQUE PARTNERSHIP 35:58 BETWEEN TWO MINISTRYION AND THIS IS A KEY PART OF RIVERSIDE FARMS 36:05 AVERAGE. >> WHEN WE TALK ABOUT THE 36:08 DIFFERENT CONTINENTS, DO YOU HAVE ANY PROJECTION TO EXPAND TO 36:13 ANY OTHER PARTS OF THE WORLD? >> NO, RIGHT NOW, I THINK WITH 36:16 THE CHAOS WE FACE, TAKING ON ANOTHER COUNTRY, TO TAKE ON 36:22 ANOTHER COUNTRY IS JUST NOT THAT SIMPLE. 36:25 WE HAVE TO EVER INFRASTRUCTURE, WE HAVE TO HAVE A SCHOOL SYSTEM 36:29 PARTNER AND RIGHT NOW, WE HAVELE PLENTY OF CAPACITY, I HATE 36:39 TALKING ABOUT CHILDREN IN THESE TERMS BUT WE HAVE PLENTY OF NEED 36:44 IN BANGLADESH AND MYANMAR. WE ARE LOOKING AT EXPANSION IN 36:49 ZAMBIA, INDIA WE'RE JUST HOLDING WHERE IT IS, BUT IN BANGLADESH 36:53 AND MYANMAR, WE CERTAINLY HAVE PLENTY OF CAPACITY AND WE'RE 36:58 VERY CONFIDENT IN THOSE TWO COUNTRIES BOTH WITH OUR CHURCH 37:03 PARTNER AND MANAGEMENT AND THE NEEDS ARE JUST OVERWHELMING TO 37:09 BE HONEST. >> WHAT IF PEOPLE WANT TO 37:14 SPONSOR, THEY DON'T WANT TO SEND MONEY BUT WANT TO SEND SUPPLIES. 37:19 I'M ASKING THESE QUESTIONS BECAUSE SOME PEOPLE SAY, WHEN 37:23 ANGIE GOES OVER, YOU SAID EARLIER IN THE PROGRAM, SHE'S 37:26 ALWAYS. >> I GO WITH SUITCASE FULL OF 37:32 CLOTHES. I GET CLOTHES FROM CHILDREN, 37:35 PARENTS FROM OUR CHURCH, OUR LOCAL CHURCH. 37:37 I ASK THEM TO GIVE ME CLOTHES, SOME OF THEIR CHILDREN'S CLOTHES 37:42 THAT ARE USED AND CLEAN, I WANT TO MAKE SURE IT'S CLEAN AND THE 37:46 KIDS HAVE OUTGROWN THEM. I GET CLOTHES, I GO TO 37:51 THE DOLLAR STORE I GET THINGS. >> SHE GOES TO WALMART AND 37:53 STARTS BUYING, WE DON'T HAVE ANY CHILDREN OF OUR OWN. 37:57 >> BECAUSE TH CLOTHES IN THE WINTER, THE CLOTHES ARE LIKE 38:01 A DOLLAR. ONE DOLLAR FOR CHILDREN'S 38:04 CLOTHES. >> WE APPRECIATE AN GEE'S 38:08 ENTHUSIASM, WE DO. I HAVE TO BE HONEST WITH YOU, 38:12 JOHN, SHIPPING STUFF TO THESE COUNTRIES IS JUST SIMPLY TOO 38:17 COSTLY, TOO LOGISTICAL AND WE RUN INTO ISSUES WITH IMPORTING 38:21 AND CUSTOMS, SO WE TRY TO KEEP IT SIMPLE, AND SO THE ONE LEVEL 38:27 OF SPONSORSHIP MONTHLY IS THE WAY WE OPERATE, SO WE DON'T DO 38:35 ANY GOODS IN PLACE. IT'S VERY HARD TO GET ANY GOODS 38:40 INTO THE COUNTRIES AND WE'VE HAD SO MUCH STOLEN AND DELETED. 38:48 AN GEE'S A RELIABLE DELIVERY SERVICE. 38:52 >> I LOVE IT. >> BUT THE SPONSORSHIP SYSTEM IS 38:56 NOT PERFECT, BUT IT'S BY FAR THE BEST WAY TO SPONSOR A CHILD. 39:09 >> THE SPONSORSHIP DOES COVER THE UNIFORM, AS WELL. 39:13 LITTLE COVERED BY THE SPONSORSHIP AND THE SPONSORS ARE 39:18 ABLE TO BUY A GIFT FOR THE CHILDREN TWICE A YEAR THROUGH 39:22 THE GIFT PROGRAM. THERE IS A BOOK ALLOWANCE, I 39:39 DON'T THINK IT COVERS ALL THE BOOKS BUT THERE IS A BOOK 39:42 ALLOWANCE. WE DO OUR BEST TO GIVE THAT 39:46 CHILD AN EDUCATION AS WE CAN. >> ALSO, REMEMBER WHEN YOU WERE 39:49 THERE, I THINK IT WAS IN INDIA, AND YOU WERE SPEAKING TO 39:53 PASTORS. >> YEAH, THAT'S ANOTHER THING 39:56 THAT, TALK ABOUT THAT, BECAUSE YOU MENTIONED EARLIER THE 40:00 TEACHERS ARE NOT BEING IN THE COVID TIME, THE CHALLENGE 40:06 SUPPORTING THE TEACHERS THERE, BUT ALSO, DO YOU HAVE ANY WORK 40:08 THAT YOU DO WITH PASTORS? >> WELL, WE DON'T NORMALLY WORK 40:13 WITH PASTORS. THAT'S NOT OUR ROLE. 40:17 WE'RE EDUCATION AND CHURCH, BUT SADLY, THE COVID NOW, THE 40:23 PASTORS WHO ARE IN THE POOR AREAS OF THESE COUNTRIES ARE NOT 40:27 GETTING THEIR WAGES. THE CHURCH IS DRAMATICALLY OUT 40:31 OF POCKET, BECAUSE IN THESE VILLAGES, THEY DON'T GO ON LINE 40:37 AND PAY THEIR OFFERINGS. IF THEY'RE NOT COMING TO CHURCH, 40:42 THERE ARE NO OFFERINGS. WE ARE GETTING REPORTS OF 40:45 PASTORS WHO ARE NOT BEING PAID. IN FACT, IT IS QUITE WIDESPREAD 40:49 IN INDIA AND BANGLADESH, SO WE'VE GOT PASTORS AND TEACHERS. 40:54 NOW WE HAVE HELPED A FEW PASTORS WITH THE RICE, AND THAT'S WHY I 40:59 DON'T WANT TO SOUND THAT I'M PUSHING IT, BUT I AM, FOR VERY 41:06 GOOD REASONS THAT THE RICE AND HEALTH APPEAL, IT'S FAR EASIER 41:11 TO GIVE A TEACHER OR PASTOR A BAG OF RICE. 41:15 OUR FIRST PRIORITIES ARE THE SCHOOLS AND TEACHERS BUT NEAR 41:19 THE SCHOOL IF WE CAN LOGISTICALLY GIVE RICE TO THE 41:23 PASTOR, WE WILL. THE MORE BAGS OF RICE WE CAN 41:27 GET, IN INDIA, A BOG OF RICE IS ABOUT $13 RUFFLE, DON'T LOOK IT 41:33 UP ON THE GOOGLE AND TELL ME I'M WRONG. 41:37 IT VARIES DRAMATICALLY, BUT I'M HAPPY TO TALK ABOUT IT AT THE 41:42 END, BUT RIGHT NOW, THE MORE FUNDS WE CAN GET INTO OUR RICE 41:48 AND HEALTH APPEAL, WE WILL HELP TEACHERS, WE WILL DO OUR BEST TO 41:52 HELP THE PASTORS. IF WE HAVE AN OVERWHELMING 41:56 AMOUNT OF RICE, WE INTEND TO SHARE IT AS QUICKLY AND PROMPTLY 42:02 AS WE CAN. >> WHAT ARE SOME OF THE NEEDS, 42:08 YOU SEE ASIAN AID. >> I SAID ASIAN AID. 42:11 WHAT ARE SOME OF THE NEEDS YOU SEE ON THE IMMEDIATE HORIZON 42:15 HERE? >> WELL, WE'RE IN A VERY 42:21 TERRIBLY UNPREDICTABLE SITUATION, SO THE BIGGEST NEED 42:24 RIGHT NOW IS DEFINITELY RICE AND HEALTH APPEAL. 42:29 THAT'S THE CRITICAL THING, AND THE NEED IS SIMPLY OVERWHELMING. 42:33 I MEAN, THREE DAYS AGO, THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNION, THE 42:39 BIGGEST UNION IN INDIA CALLS ME AND SAID CAN YOU HELP WITH THE 42:43 WAGES FOR OUR TEACHERS. NOW, I CAN'T GIVES CASH. 42:50 I SAID WE WILL HELP, SO WE'RE GIVING 500 TEACHERS A BAG OF 42:54 RICE, WHICH IS ABOUT A MONTH'S SUPPLY, SO THE BIGGEST NEED IS 43:00 THE RICE AND HEALTH APPEAL. SECONDARY, WE WANT TO FINISH 43:07 THAT KMMS SCHOOL AND THIRDLY, EVEN THOUGH THE CHILDREN AREN'T 43:12 THERE, WE DO NEED THE CHILDREN SPONSORED, BECAUSE WE'RE PAYING 43:16 OUT FOR THE SPONSORSHIP ALL THE UNSPONSORRED FUNDS SO THOSE ARE 43:22 THE PRIORITIES. >> SCOPE BACK TO THE SCHOOL, WE 43:24 SAW A MOCKUP OF THE PROJECT. THE DOLLAR AMOUNT AGAIN IS ABOUT 43:30 30,000 NEEDED TO. >> FOR THE BANGLADESH BUILDING. 43:33 >> YES, YEAH. >> THAT'S THE OTHER PROJECT THAT 43:38 NEEDS $30,000 TO COMPLETE, BUT YEAH, WHAT HE WAS TALKING ABOUT 43:41 IS THE RICE AND HEALTH APPEAL. >> KMMS SCHOOL. 43:45 >> THE KMMS SCHOOL IS IN BANGLADESH. 43:50 THAT'S MISSION SCHOOL AND WE'RE BUILDING THAT THREE STORY 43:53 BUILDING. >> THAT'S THE ONE. 43:55 >> IT'S A THREE STORY BELIEVE. IT HAS CLASSROOMS. 44:00 IT HAS THE OFFICE, AND AT THE END, IT HAS A PRESCHOOL. 44:05 THAT PROJECT WAS ABOUT $550,000 AND WE JUST NEED $30,000 MORE TO 44:12 COMPLETE THE FUNDING FOR THAT PROJECT. 44:15 >> OK. YOU KNOW WHAT I'D LIKE TO DO, 44:19 THERE'S ANOTHER VERY IMPORTANT STORY HERE ABOUT SPONSORSHIP AND 44:23 A SCHOOL GIRL. NOW TELL US ABOUT THAT STORY 44:27 THERE. WE HAVE ANTHER PICTURE HERE. 44:30 >> NUMBER 19. >> OF A GIRL THAT THAT 44:35 SPONSORSHIP. >> I THINK THIS PICTURE JUST 44:37 REFLECTS THE SPONSORSHIP PROGRAM. 44:39 THIS WASN'T A SPECIFIC STORY, BUT THESE ARE JUST TWO TYPICAL 44:44 GIRLS THAT ARE TYPICAL OF THE SPONSORSHIP PROGRAM, AND WE HAVE 44:49 OVER 3,000 OF THESE GIRLS, BOYS AND GIRLS, AND WE COULD EASILY 44:56 TAKE, FIND A THOUSAND MORE TOMORROW, SO TE SUPPORT OF THE 45:00 CHILD IMPACT SPONSORSHIP PROGRAM OR THE UNSPONSORRED CHILD 45:06 IMPACTS CHILDREN LIKE THESE. THE OTHER BENEFIT WE DIDN'T TALK 45:10 ABOUT WITH OUR SPONSORSHIP PROGRAM, IT KEEPS THE MISSION, 45:14 ITS MONEY GOING TO THE MISSION SCHOOL. 45:22 EVERY CHILD WE SPONSOR, THAT MONEY IS GOING TO THE ADVENTIST 45:28 MISSION SCHOOL. WE'RE A VERY UNIQUE MINISTRY, 45:32 BECAUSE OVER 90% OF THE MONEYS WE SEND TO THE FIELD GO TO 45:38 ADVENTIST MISSION SCHOOLS. >> THAT'S RIGHT. 45:40 >> SO WE ARE A TRUE PARTNER OF THE CHURCH. 45:46 >> IN MYANMAR, THERE ARE PEOPLE OBVIOUSLY BENEFITING THAT ARE 45:52 DIRECTLY CONNECTED TO THE CHURCH. 45:55 ALTHOUGH WE ARE NOT HIRING CHURCH EMPLOYEES, THE CHURCH IS 45:58 CONNECTED TO MOST ALL THE SCHOOLS YOU'RE WORKING WITH AND 46:01 THE EDUCATION. THAT'S ALSO SOMETHING THAT'S 46:04 VERY IMPORTANT. WHAT I'D LIKE TO DO, BECAUSE HE 46:07 TALKED ABOUT A NUMBER OF PROJECTS, BEFORE THE TIME GETS 46:11 AWAY FROM US, I DON'T WANT TO MAKE SURE WE ARE RUSHING THE 46:14 ADDRESS IN AT THE VERY END. I WANT TO RECAP THE NEEDS. 46:18 WHAT YOU CALL OPEN SPONSORSHIP WHERE CHILDREN ARE NOT 46:23 NECESSARILY DIRECTLY CHOSEN BY PEOPLE IN THE FIELD BUT WHENEVER 46:28 YOU SEND YOUR FINANCIAL SUPPORT TO CHILD IMPACT INTERNATIONAL, 46:31 THEY WOULD SELECT A CHILD THAT WILL BE A PART OF THE 46:36 SPONSORSHIP, CORRECT ME IF I'M INCORRECT, SO THERE'S NO 46:39 SHORTAGE OF CHILDREN TO SPONSOR. THEY'RE NOT SAYING WE NEED MORE 46:43 CHILDREN BECAUSE IN INDIA, THERE'S NO SUCH THING AS A 46:47 SHORTAGE OF CHILDREN TO SPONSOR. >> IF THEY WANT TO MAKE A ONE 47:18 TIME IMPACT, A ONE TIME DONATION, THEY ARE ABLE TO 47:21 DONATE TO THE UNSPONSORED CHILD FUND AND THAT IS BEING USED TO 47:26 SPONSOR ALL OF THE CHILDREN. WE ARE USING THE UNSPONSORED 47:44 CHILD FUND TO SPONSOR THE CHILDREN. 47:47 ANYONE THAT IS NOT ABLE TO MAKE A MONTH CONTRIBUTION FOR 47:50 SPONSORSHIP CAN MAKE A ONE TIME DONATION TO THE UNSPONSORED 47:53 CHILD FUND. >> THAT'S ONE OF THOSE. 47:55 ALSO THE KMMS SCHOOL. >> YES. 47:58 >> IF YOU GO TO OUR WEBSITE WHICH IS CHILD IMPACT.ORG, AND 48:04 YOU HIT THE DONATE BUTTON, WE'VE JUST GOT A NEW WEBSITE, WE'RE 48:09 VERY PROUD OF IT. >> I LIKE IT. 48:11 >> YOU'LL SEE THE FUNDS YOU CAN CONTRIBUTE. 48:14 YOU'LL SEE BANGLADESH BUILDING APPEAL, AND THAT'S WHERE YOU 48:17 WOULD PUT A DONATION TOWARDS THE BANGLADESH BUILDING APPEAL. 48:22 IF YOU WANT TO CONTRIBUTE TO THE UNSPONSORED, THERE'S THE 48:28 UNSPONSORED CHILD FUND. >> THAT'S RIGHT. 48:30 WE WANT TO GIVE YOU THAT INFORMATION THAT YOU NEED. 48:33 REMEMBER, LOOK AT THE WEBSITE, CLICK AROUND AND LOOK AT SOME OF 48:37 THE AREAS THAT YOU KNOW YOU CAN BE A PARTICIPANT IN AND SPONSOR 48:41 THE MINISTRY, AS THOSE WHO WERE ON THE GROUND, WE SAW THE 48:46 IMPACT. NO PUN INTENDED, WE SAW THE 48:49 LIVES BEING CHANGED, SO HERE IS THE INFORMATION THAT YOU NEED TO 48:52 REACH OUT TO CHILD IMPACT INTERNATIONAL. 49:08 WE'D APPRECIATE IT. >> IT'S CHILD IMPACT 49:10 INTERNATIONAL, P.O. BOX 763, OOLTEWAH TENNESSEE, 37363 AND 49:21 THE PHONE NUMBER IS AREA CODE 423-910-0667. 49:28 YOU CAN ALSO GO TO HELP@CHILD IMPACT.ORG. 49:34 IS THAT THE EMAIL? >> YES, THEY CAN EMAIL ASKING 49:39 FOR -- ASKING DO THEY WANT TO SPONSOR A CHILD, THEY CAN EMAIL 49:43 US AND WE'LL SEND THEM A CHILD. >> CHILD IMPACT.ORG. 49:49 >> THE WEBSITE IS CHILD IMPACT.ORG. 49:55 LET'S TALK ABOUT THE PROGRAM'S ON 3ABN. 50:01 FRIDAY NIGHT IS ONE OF OUR FAVORITE TIMES. 50:05 M WE TRY TO MAKE SURE WE HAVE OUR WARSHIP OUT OF THE WAY BY 50:09 THEN BUT I COULD HEAR THE MUSIC COMING ON IN THE BACKGROUND. 50:14 >> WELL, WE HAVE A PROGRAM, IT'S CALLED HOPE IN MOTION, AND IT'S 50:19 ON EVERY FRIDAY NIGHT AND SATURDAY AFTERNOON. 50:23 WE WILL DO A 15 MINUTE PROGRAM AND THE CURRENT SERIES WAS 50:27 SHOWING US ABOUT BANGLADESH, AND SO WE SEND A FILM CREW TO RECORD 50:37 THIS. IT IS A BIT OF A CHALLENGE 50:39 MAKING THESE PROGRAMS, BOTH COST WISE AND LOGISTICS, BUT 3ABN HAS 50:47 BEEN A VERY IMPORTANT PART NOW WITH US AND FOR US, AND SO WE 50:51 ENCOURAGE YOU TO WATCH THOSE PROGRAMS. 51:02 IT BRINGS YOU UP TO DATE AND GIVES YOU A WIDER UNDERSTANDING 51:05 OF WHAT WE DO. >> JOSUE, HE HAS SUCH A UNIQUE 51:12 NAME. I'M NOT GOING TO FORGET IT AFTER 51:14 TONIGHT, I PROMISE YOU THAT. WHAT DO YOU SEE YOUR SKILLS 51:20 EXPANDING IN CHILD IMPACT. WHAT ARE THINGS YOU FEEL COULD 51:23 BE A GREAT CONTRIBUTION IN YOUR FUTURE WITH CHILD IMPACT? 51:26 >> YEAH, WELL, I MEAN REALLY STUDYING INTERNATIONAL 51:34 DEFINITELYIMENT AND NEED IS WAY DIFFERENT. 51:38 I'VE GOTTEN TO TRAVEL TO INDIA AND REALLY SEE THE NEED AND THE 51:42 POVERTY THAT THESE CHILDREN ARE GOING THROUGH AND MUCH OF AN 51:45 IMPACT AND A SUSTAINABLE IMPACT, CHILD IMPACT REALLY MAKES ON THE 51:49 LIVES OF CHILDREN. IF YOU THINK ABOUT IT, THE 51:55 CONTRIBUTION IS GOING SO FAR, BECAUSE IT'S HELPING THE CHILD, 51:58 BUT IT'S NOT ONLY HELPING THE CHILD, IT'S HELPING THE MISSION 52:03 SCHOOL, IT'S HELPING THE CHURCH, IT'S HELPING THE SCHOOL. 52:07 IT'S HELPING THE TEACHERS, HELPING THE CHILD, THAT CHILD 52:12 WILL GROW UP AND GET THROUGH THE EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM AND COME BACK 52:15 AND HELP THEIR FAMILY, THEIR VILLAGE, THEY WILL COME BACK AND 52:20 HELP THEIR COMMUNITY. A LOT OF THE TIMES I GET TO READ 52:23 THE CHILD BIOGRAPHIES AND MOST OF THE TIME, THE CHILDREN JUST 52:27 WANTING TO BE TEACHERS, DOCTORS, NURSES, THEY WANT TO BE THINGS 52:31 THAT THEY CAN USE TO COME BACK TO THEIR COMMUNITIES AND HELP, 52:35 SO IN REALITY, THIS HELP IS SUSTAINABLE, CREATING BETTER 52:39 COMMUNITIES FOR THOSE CHILDREN, IT'S CREATING BETTER FAMILIES, 52:43 YOU KNOW, GETTING THEM OUT OF POVERTY, GIVING THEM AN 52:46 EDUCATION AND NOT JUST ANY EDUCATION BUT A CHRISTIAN 52:55 ADVENTIST EDUCATION. SO IT'S A MULTI-LEVEL HELP. 52:58 >> THAT'S BEAUTIFUL APPROXIMATE IN THESE SCHOOLS, IF SOMEONE IS 53:03 SICK, IS THERE A SCHOOL NURSE? >> YEAH, I MEAN IT VARIES FROM 53:07 SCHOOL TO SCHOOL, BUT IF THEY GOT SICK OR THEY HAVE TO GO TO 53:14 HOSPITAL, WE SUPPORT THAT FINANCIALLY. 53:23 IN A COUPLE OF CASES, WE'VE HAD SERIOUS IMPLICATIONS AND WE'VE 53:30 SUPPORTED IT. >> I WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT WE 53:36 HIGHLIGHT THIS GREAT EMERGENCY IN ALL THE SCHOOLS. 53:40 TALK ABOUT THAT, HOW WE CAN DIVE IN, RIGHT NOW WE CAN PLAY ABOUT 53:45 WHAT'S HAPPENING IN THIS NO COVID-19 ENVIRONMENT. 53:48 WHEN THAT'S GOING TO PASS, WE DON'T KNOW, BUT A FINAL PUSH 53:52 HERE ON THE URGENCY THAT CHILD IMPACT IS FACING. 53:56 >> WELL, I'VE BEEN DOING THAT 13 YEARS. 54:08 RIGHT NOW THE CALLS IN DEMAND I AM GETTING ARE OVERWHELMING AND 54:15 OUR RICE HEALTH APPEAL IS EFFECTIVE IN MANY WAYS. 54:18 IT'S DANGEROUS TO HAND OUT CASH. OUR FIRST PRIORITY IS OUR 54:23 CHILDREN, OUR SECOND PRIORITY IS TO MAKE SURE THAT THESE MISSION 54:26 SCHOOLS WHO ARE IN DEEP FINANCIAL TROUBLE, BECAUSE OF 54:30 THE COVID, WILL HAVE RICE FOR WHEN THE SCHOOLS OPEN, AND THEN 54:34 IF WE GET SUFFICIENT SUPPORT, WE WILL ENSURE THAT THE TEACHERS 54:39 AND THE PASTORS IN THE AREA WILL GET FOOD. 54:54 I ASSURE YOU THERE'S A GENUINE DEMAND. 54:57 IF WE COULD RAISE JUST $100,000 IMMEDIATELY, YOU CAN GO TO OUR 55:02 WEB PAGE, YOU'LL SEE RICE AND HEALTH EMERGENCY APPEAL, WE'RE 55:07 ALSO SUPPLYING HAND SANITIZER, AND SOAP TO THE SCHOOLS WHEN 55:11 THEY OPEN, AND WE'RE EDUCATING THE STUDENTS, AND I WOULD JUST 55:17 ASK FOR SUPPORT FOR THE THE RICE AND HEALTH APPEAL. 55:20 IT'S REAL. THEY'RE IN CRISIS, AND I THINK 55:26 THE PROBLEM IS GOING TO GO ON FOR A LONG TIME, AND WE'RE DOING 55:31 OUR BEST, AND THIS IS THE MOST EFFECTIVE WAY THAT WE CAN HELP 55:38 IN THIS UNBELIEVABLE SITUATION. >> NOW, ARE THEY BEING TESTED 55:41 FOR COVID? HOW DOES THAT WORK? 55:44 >> ANGIE, I HAVE NO IDEA. THEY'RE IN THE VILLAGES OF 55:50 INDIA. THERE'S 1.3 BILLION PEOPLE IN 55:54 INDIA. IF TESTING'S AN ISSUE HERE, I 55:58 DON'T THINK YOU'VE SEEN ANYTHING WHEN YOU GET TO THESE COUNTRIES. 56:01 >> THAT'S TRUE. WE'RE LIVING IN A CRISIS 56:04 ENVIRONMENT NOT ONLY WITH AN IMMEDIATE IMPACT BUT AN 56:07 AFTERMATH, AND I WANT TO JUST THANK YOU, JIM, FOR BEING HERE 56:10 TONIGHT AND THANK YOU JOSUE. I SAID IT WELL, PRAISE THE LORD. 56:17 I THINK THAT CHILD IMPACT IS GOING TO GO ON EVEN IN THE 56:22 CONTEXT OF THIS CRISIS, WE ARE GOING TO CONTINUE TO PRAY, 56:25 THAT'S SOMETHING OUR LISTENERS AND VIEWERS CAN CONTINUE TO DO. 56:29 WE CAN TELL YOU FROM OUR OWN EXPERIENCE THAT THE MONEYS ARE 56:32 GOING TO BE USED TO CHANGE AND TRANSFORM LIVES THAT WILL IN 56:36 TURN BEGIN TO CHANGE AND TRANSFORM OTHER LIVES. 56:39 ONCE AGAIN, CHILD IMPACT.ORG, AND THAT NUMBER IS 423-910-0667. 56:46 SO THANK YOU, JIM, THANK YOU, JOSUE, HONEY, ALWAYS GOOD TO 56:51 HAVE YOU WITH ME. I'M GOING TO KEEP YOU, LET THEM 56:54 GO HOME. THANK YOU TO OUR VIEWERS, THOSE 56:58 OF YOU SUPPORTING AND OUR LISTENERS. 57:00 WE PRAY THAT THE LORD WILL BLESS YOU TO IMPACT SOMEONE'S LIFE 57:04 UNTIL WE SEE YOU AGAIN. BYE-BY |
