THOSE WHO ARE LISTENING TELL
AS A LITTLE BIT ABOUT YOURSELF.
00:03:51.86\00:03:54.36
DID YOU GROW UP
IN A CHRISTIAN HOME?
00:03:54.36\00:03:57.43
>> I DID NOT. I GREW
UP IN A CATHOLIC HOME AND
00:03:57.43\00:04:00.77
IT WAS NOT UNTIL I WAS 21 OR
22 WHERE I FLIP THROUGH A BIBLE
00:04:00.77\00:04:09.88
WHEN I WAS GOING TO DOWN TIME
ALL THE WORDS IN READ CAUGHT MY
00:04:09.88\00:04:12.98
ATTENTION SOME OF THEM HAVE
JESUS' WORDS IN RED SO I DIDN'T
00:04:12.98\00:04:16.12
KNOW WHY SOME MORE IN RED AND I
SAW THE MOST READ AT THE SERMON
00:04:16.12\00:04:18.89
ON THE MOUND SO I STARTED TO
READ THE SERMON ON THE MOUNT AND
00:04:18.89\00:04:24.93
IT THAT MADE ME FEEL LIKE THERE
WAS MORE PURPOSE AND MEANING IN
00:04:24.93\00:04:29.46
THIS LIFE AND I JUST COULDN'T
STOP READING AND LONG STORY
00:04:29.46\00:04:36.04
SHORT, I ENDED UP GETTING
BAPTIZED ABOUT FOUR MONTHS LATER
00:04:36.04\00:04:41.11
AND THIS WAS AS A CHRISTIAN,
AND ADVENTIST CHRISTIAN.
00:04:41.11\00:04:50.19
>> LAST TIME YOU ARE ON YOUR
MADLY IN LOVE AND YOU KNEW SHE
00:04:50.19\00:04:52.62
WAS THE ONE BUT
YOU HAVE MARRIED.
00:04:52.62\00:04:54.59
>> YES WE GOT MARRIED
LAST YEAR. I'M VERY HAPPY.
00:04:54.59\00:04:59.06
SHE'S ACTUALLY
WATCHING I LOVE YOU.
00:04:59.06\00:05:06.57
I'M SCORING SOME POINTS HERE.
>> YOU ARE ALSO WORKING ON YOUR
00:05:06.57\00:05:11.41
MASTERS DEGREE. >> YES I WAS.
00:05:11.41\00:05:14.14
I GOT MY MASTERS DEGREE IN
NONPROFIT MANAGEMENT THAT I GOT
00:05:14.14\00:05:17.31
A CERTIFICATION AS A CERTIFIED
FUNDRAISING EXECUTIVE WHICH
00:05:17.31\00:05:21.08
BASICALLY JUST IS AN ENDORSEMENT
SHOWING THAT WE ARE ARE
00:05:21.08\00:05:25.09
ETHICALLY FUNDRAISING AND
THAT WE ETHICALLY HANDLE DONOR
00:05:25.09\00:05:30.09
FUNDING PRAISE THE LORD.
>> HAVE YOU ALWAYS WALK TO THE
00:05:30.09\00:05:36.87
STRAIGHT AND
NARROW? >> NOT AT ALL.
00:05:36.87\00:05:41.07
ANYONE WHO COMES INTO THE WORLD
DOESN'T ALWAYS REALLY WALK THE
00:05:41.07\00:05:44.24
STRAIGHT AND NARROW ALONG THE
WAY WE FIND IT OR THE LORDS FIND
00:05:44.24\00:05:48.68
US BUT GROWING UP I GREW UP
IN ORLANDO FLORIDA FOR THE MOST
00:05:48.68\00:05:53.45
PART MY FAMILY WAS SEVENTH-DAY
ADVENTIST BUT AT THE SAME TIME I
00:05:53.45\00:05:56.25
REMEMBER GOING CHURCH AS A KID
AND THEN WE STOPPED GOING CHURCH
00:05:56.25\00:06:00.52
AND THEY WERE HOUSE THAT PARTY
SEEN AMONGST FAMILY BUT THEN MY
00:06:00.52\00:06:08.30
FATHER CAME IN A RADICALLY
CHANGED WHERE WE ARE GOING
00:06:08.30\00:06:11.50
CHURCH AND NOW THIS IS A
CHRISTIAN HOME IN BUT I THINK
00:06:11.50\00:06:15.37
THE ISSUE WITH ME HAVING MANY
INDIVIDUALS WHO COULD EXPERIENCE
00:06:15.37\00:06:21.21
THIS AS A METHOD ONLY ONE BUT
I WAS RAISED IN CHURCH BUT NOT
00:06:21.21\00:06:26.08
RAISED IN CHRIST AND
THERE IS A DIFFERENCE.
00:06:26.08\00:06:30.29
NOTHING WAS EVER WHY DID
WE QUIT GOING TO THE MOVIES?
00:06:30.29\00:06:35.46
BECAUSE PASTOR SAID SO. BUT WHY.
00:06:35.46\00:06:38.99
THERE IS NO EXPLANATION.
THERE WAS A DISCONNECT.
00:06:38.99\00:06:46.23
>> A LOT OF RULES
IN A RELATIONSHIP.
00:06:46.23\00:06:52.24
I ALWAYS SAY RULE WITHOUT
RELATIONSHIP RESULT IN REBELLION
00:06:52.24\00:06:56.64
REBELLION. >> THAT
IS WISDOM RIGHT THERE
00:06:56.64\00:06:58.85
BECAUSE THAT'S
EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENED.
00:06:58.85\00:07:00.88
I ENDED UP DROPPING OUT OF HIGH
SCHOOL BECAUSE I I WAS NOT A
00:07:00.88\00:07:05.52
GOOD STUDENT. I
WOULD GO SKIP TO SMOKE AND
00:07:05.52\00:07:08.59
DRINK AND I REMEMBER DROPPING
OUT AND GOING STRAIGHT TO
00:07:08.59\00:07:13.13
CONSTRUCTION AND SEVEN YEARS
JUST LIVING THAT LIFE OF GOING
00:07:13.13\00:07:18.47
OUT NIGHTLIFE CLUBBING THAT
WHOLE SCENE AND AROUND 21 IS
00:07:18.47\00:07:23.54
WHEN I HEARD THE
LORD REALLY CALLING.
00:07:23.54\00:07:27.41
I WAS REALLY DOWN. I
FELT LIKE I WAS DOING
00:07:27.41\00:07:32.81
EVERYTHING I WANT TO DO THERE
WAS NO HINDRANCE AND NO LIMIT
00:07:32.81\00:07:37.09
WHATEVER I WANT I DO AND I FELT
LIKE NOTHING WAS FILLING THE
00:07:37.09\00:07:41.32
VOID. >> VANITY VANITY.
00:07:41.32\00:07:44.33
>> ALL VANITY. >>
IT WAS FILLING A VOID.
00:07:44.33\00:07:49.83
I HAD CONVERSATION WITH MY
BROTHER AND HE ASKED IF I WANT
00:07:49.83\00:07:53.27
TO GO TO HEAVEN AND I SAID THAT
THE DUMB QUESTION I KNOW I'M NOT
00:07:53.27\00:07:55.87
GOING IF THERE WAS A PLACE BUT
THE SPARK MOVE THE CONVERSATION
00:07:55.87\00:08:01.11
AND THE CONVERSATION JUST A LEAD
TO ME ACTUALLY DIGGING INTO THE
00:08:01.11\00:08:04.38
WORD MYSELF I ALWAYS HEARD
ABOUT IT SECONDHAND SO I HAD A
00:08:04.38\00:08:12.12
SECONDHAND FIRST
IMPRESSION OF GOD.
00:08:12.12\00:08:13.99
LET ME HAVE MY OWN FIRSTHAND
IMPRESSION OF GOD AND IT CHANGED
00:08:13.99\00:08:17.93
MY LIFE COMPLETELY. AROUND 21.
00:08:17.93\00:08:21.70
SAME TIME. >> DO YOU
ALL KNOW EACH OTHER AT
00:08:21.70\00:08:23.87
ALL? >> WE DID
NOT KNOW EACH OTHER
00:08:23.87\00:08:25.17
BUT WE GOT BAPTIZED ON THE
SAME TIME HERE XAVIER FEW MONTHS
00:08:25.17\00:08:32.87
APART. >> LAST FAST-TRACK THAT.
00:08:32.87\00:08:35.68
YOU ENDED UP FROM HIGH SCHOOL
DROP OUT YOU ENDED UP GETTING A
00:08:35.68\00:08:39.31
GED AND WENT TO SCHOOL AT TELL
US AT THIS TIME YOU KNOW ERIC
00:08:39.31\00:08:45.65
AND YOU TOLD ERIC HEY YOU DON'T
HAVE TOO HAVE THE DEGREE TO
00:08:45.65\00:08:51.79
PREACH. >> WE WERE
AT MY PARENTS HOUSE
00:08:51.79\00:08:59.03
AND I FELT PEOPLE TUGGING LIKE
YOU SHOULD GO STUDY THEOLOGY TO
00:08:59.03\00:09:02.90
BE A PASTOR AND I WAS LIKE
NOPE I DON'T FEEL LIKE I NEED.
00:09:02.90\00:09:09.11
I COULD BE JON THE BAPTIST AT
HERE IN THE WILDERNESS I DON'T
00:09:09.11\00:09:11.28
NEED A DEGREE TO DO THINGS IN
THE LORD SHIFTED THAT COMPLETELY
00:09:11.28\00:09:16.02
FOR ME IN 2011 AND THEN FOR
YEARS WE STAYED IN CONTACT ALONG
00:09:16.02\00:09:21.32
THE WAY. >> THIS IS
ABOUT THE TIME YOU'RE
00:09:21.32\00:09:26.09
STARTING SALT. >>
YES HE WAS THERE FROM THE
00:09:26.09\00:09:29.66
BEGINNING OF SALT HE WAS
INVOLVED WITH A DIFFERENT
00:09:29.66\00:09:33.87
MINISTRY WAS A PREACHER'S CLUB
AND MAYBE THAT GAVE HIM SOME
00:09:33.87\00:09:37.67
AMMUNITION TO THINK SHE DID
IT NEED A DEGREE BUT WE HAD A
00:09:37.67\00:09:41.64
PREACHER'S CLUB WHERE HE
PRACTICED PREACHING AND WE
00:09:41.64\00:09:45.15
SHARPENED IT AND IT
WAS AROUND THAT TIME.
00:09:45.15\00:09:48.28
>> THAT'S WHAT I ENDED UP
LEAVING TO GO STUDY BUT AS THE
00:09:48.28\00:09:52.29
YEARS PAST WE
ALWAYS STAYED IN CONTACT.
00:09:52.29\00:09:55.02
>> THE LORD DID NOT LET
YOU DROP OUT OF COLLEGE?
00:09:55.02\00:09:58.69
>> NOPE. >> I WAS A
MORE A, B STUDENT IN
00:09:58.69\00:10:02.06
COLLEGE AND IT SURPRISED ME
BECAUSE HIGH SCHOOL RECORDS I
00:10:02.06\00:10:04.67
ACTUALLY HAVE THEM AND THEY ARE
NOT GOOD BUT SURPRISINGLY I FEEL
00:10:04.67\00:10:10.77
LIKE WHEN YOU FIND SOMETHING
YOU'RE PASSIONATE ABOUT IT
00:10:10.77\00:10:15.81
DOESN'T MATTER ABOUT THE IQ
OR PEOPLE TELL YOU THERE ARE
00:10:15.81\00:10:20.52
CERTAIN THINGS IN SCHOOL
AND JUST NOT GOOD AT BT WHEN YOU
00:10:20.52\00:10:23.35
FIND SOMETHING THAT YOU'RE
PASSIONATE ABOUT YOU EXCEL IN IT
00:10:23.35\00:10:25.99
AND I GRABBED IT OF OAKWOOD IN
2018 AND FROM THAT MOMENT UNTIL
00:10:25.99\00:10:32.23
NOW ERIC WAS ALWAYS SAYING
OKAY COME BACK TO ORLANDO AND I
00:10:32.23\00:10:38.63
ALWAYS SAID NOPE. >>
HE LAUNCHED HIS PASTORAL
00:10:38.63\00:10:44.97
MINISTRY IF YOU WILL IN
2020. YOU GETS TO A CHURCH IN
00:10:44.97\00:10:52.98
CALIFORNIA AND ALL OF A
SUDDEN THE CHURCHES CLOSE DOWN.
00:10:52.98\00:10:57.02
BUT TELL US ABOUT YOUR
OTHER BECAUSE OF PANDEMIC.
00:10:57.02\00:11:00.69
>> TELL US ABOUT YOUR GOD HAD
TRAINED THE IN THAT HELPED YOU
00:11:00.69\00:11:07.46
FOR THAT MOMENT? >> I
WAS GOING THROUGH OAKWOOD
00:11:07.46\00:11:11.97
AND I ALWAYS LIKE TO CHALLENGE
MYSELF AND MANY TIMES I
00:11:11.97\00:11:16.20
QUESTIONED WHY I PUT MYSELF IN
CERTAIN PREDICAMENTS SO MY LAST
00:11:16.20\00:11:20.01
YEAR STUDYING AT OAKWOOD
I END UP TAKING A MINOR IN
00:11:20.01\00:11:23.04
COMMUNICATIONS AND WHO KNOWS WHY
DID THAT TO MYSELF BUT I DID IT
00:11:23.04\00:11:26.41
AND BUT BECAUSE I DID SO I
TOOK COURSES THAT ALLOWED ME TOO
00:11:26.41\00:11:31.45
LEARN HOW TO EDIT VIDEOS AND AND
TV AND RADIO BROADCASTING AND SO
00:11:31.45\00:11:38.83
I WOULD MAKE VIDEOS AS MY
PROJECTS AND NEVER IN MY WILDEST
00:11:38.83\00:11:43.16
DREAMS DID I THINK THAT THAT
SCALE HAS THAT KNOWLEDGE WOULD
00:11:43.16\00:11:47.50
COME BACK BECAUSE IN 2020
BECAUSE OF THE PANDEMIC AND
00:11:47.50\00:11:51.77
CALIFORNIA CHURCHES BEGAN
TO SHUT DOWN IN THE MOMENT THEY
00:11:51.77\00:11:54.61
SHUT DOWN I HAD THE KNOWLEDGE TO
SHOOT VIDEOS AND EDIT VIDEOS AND
00:11:54.61\00:12:01.68
PUT THEM UP SO WHEN CHURCHES
SHUT DOWN THE FOLLOWING SATURDAY
00:12:01.68\00:12:04.75
ALREADY HAD A SERVICE. >>
GOD DOES NOT WASTE ANYTHING
00:12:04.75\00:12:08.66
THAT WE HAVE GONE THROUGH.
I'M SURE YOU ARE WONDERFUL
00:12:08.66\00:12:14.63
OUTREACH PASTOR BUT I WANT TO
ASK YOU A QUESTION AND WE WILL
00:12:14.63\00:12:17.47
HAVE A SONG. I FORGOT
TO DO THE SONG BUT TELL
00:12:17.47\00:12:23.04
US HOW GOD GAVE YOU THE IDEA
FOR SALT SERVICE AND THE LOVE
00:12:23.04\00:12:29.81
TOGETHER. THE OUTREACH.
00:12:29.81\00:12:32.01
AND THE TITLE, ERIC TITLED
THE PROGRAM TONIGHT HOME BOUND.
00:12:32.01\00:12:42.82
IT IS A TERM OF HOPE WHEN YOU'RE
MINISTERING TO THE UNSHELTERED
00:12:42.82\00:12:47.13
TO LET THEM KNOW THAT I'D YOU
ARE BOUND TOWARD HOME BUT TELL
00:12:47.13\00:12:53.44
US HOW DID GOD BURST
THROUGH THIS MINISTRY?
00:12:53.44\00:12:58.91
>> WHAT I CAME INTO THE CHURCH
AND I WAS LOOKING AROUND THEY
00:12:58.91\00:13:03.28
WERE SO MANY ADVENTIST CHURCHES
IN THE ORLANDO AREA AND THEY
00:13:03.28\00:13:06.65
WERE A COUPLE THINGS THAT I WAS
NOTICING AND NOT ONLY ME WAS I
00:13:06.65\00:13:12.05
NOTICING THIS BUT MY FRIENDS AS
WELL AND ONE IS THE THE CHURCHES
00:13:12.05\00:13:16.42
WERE NOT TOO DOING CONSISTENT
OUTREACH AND WHEN I SAY THAT I
00:13:16.42\00:13:23.43
MEAN MEAN IT.
THERE WAS SOMETHING TO BE
00:13:23.43\00:13:26.60
QUARTERLY OR ONCE EVERY SIX
MONTHS SOMETIMES ONCE A YEAR BUT
00:13:26.60\00:13:30.81
NOTHING ON A CONSISTENT BASIS SO
WITHOUT CONSISTED MINISTRY HOW
00:13:30.81\00:13:35.41
CAN YOU CREATE A RELATIONSHIP?
OR DISCIPLES FOR CHRIST?
00:13:35.41\00:13:39.28
AND BRING PEOPLE TO
CHRIST? THAT WAS ONE.
00:13:39.28\00:13:42.62
THE OTHER THING WAS THAT YOUNG
ADULT POPULATION WAS PRETTY
00:13:42.62\00:13:46.05
SCARCE AT THAT TIME THERE WAS
MAY BE SOME HERE OR THERE AND SO
00:13:46.05\00:13:50.43
I WANTED TO BE ABLE TO CREATE
A COMMUNITY WHERE YOUNG ADULTS
00:13:50.43\00:13:55.03
COULD COME TOGETHER OUTSIDE
OF CHURCH BUT TO DO SOMETHING
00:13:55.03\00:13:58.07
MEANINGFUL LIKE OUTREACH AND
THEN AT THE SAME TIME THE THIRD
00:13:58.07\00:14:01.57
THING WAS TO BE ABLE TO
BUILD RELATIONSHIPS AND CREATE
00:14:01.57\00:14:05.11
MEASURABLE
IMPACT IN THE COMMUNITY.
00:14:05.11\00:14:06.71
THAT WAS THE THOUGHT
PROCESS IN THE BEGINNING.
00:14:06.71\00:14:11.65
THAT'S ARE IDEA OF STARTING IT
AND THEN WE HAD OUTREACH WHERE I
00:14:11.65\00:14:16.99
BELIEVE PEOPLE ARE NOT SURE WHAT
GOD IS CALLING THEM TO DO JUST
00:14:16.99\00:14:19.85
TO DO SOMETHING. GO
OUT THERE AND TRY TO
00:14:19.85\00:14:24.86
VOLUNTEER AND BE A PART OF
ANOTHER MINISTRY BECAUSE THAT IS
00:14:24.86\00:14:29.63
HOW I GOD'S TOTAL AND COMPLETE
CONFIRMATION THAT STARTING SALT
00:14:29.63\00:14:33.80
WAS WHAT NEEDED TO HAPPEN AND SO
A MONTH AFTER THAT I WAS DOING
00:14:33.80\00:14:37.64
AND OUTREACH AND THEY HAD THIS
REALLY IS A REAL GOD EXPERIENCE
00:14:37.64\00:14:42.81
WHILE WE WERE DOING OUTREACH AND
IT SPARKED THAT SALT STARTING
00:14:42.81\00:14:47.82
THE NEXT MONTH. >>
WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?
00:14:47.82\00:14:53.79
YOU HAD AN IDEA AND YOU KNOW
IT'S COMING FROM GOD SO YOU HAVE
00:14:53.79\00:14:56.76
NO MONEY SO I MEAN THAT IT'S
KIND OF HARD TO BUILD A BUILDING
00:14:56.76\00:15:06.47
AND ANYTHING WITHOUT ANYTHING.
SO YOU MUST'VE BEEN EXTREMELY
00:15:06.47\00:15:11.24
PASSIONATE KNOWING
THAT GOD WAS BEHIND THIS.
00:15:11.24\00:15:13.54
>> YES AND I THINK THAT IS
WHAT GOD WAS SO CLEAR THAT THIS
00:15:13.54\00:15:18.61
NEEDED TO BE STARTED BECAUSE
ONCE I KNOW GOD WANTS ME TOO DO
00:15:18.61\00:15:22.42
SOMETHING THERE
IS NO LOOKING BACK.
00:15:22.42\00:15:23.99
IT'S LIKE YOU JUST MOVE FORWARD
AND IF THINGS MESS UP OR WE
00:15:23.99\00:15:27.66
DON'T HAVE MONEY I THINK I OWED
MONEY AT THAT TIME I THINK I WAS
00:15:27.66\00:15:31.46
NEGATIVE AT THAT TIME BUT IT
KEPT ME GOING GOING AND IT HIT
00:15:31.46\00:15:40.87
THE CAEN GOING -- AND
IT KEPT THE TEAM GOING.
00:15:40.87\00:15:45.77
WE'VE HAD AMAZING PEOPLE
WHO HAVE CONTRIBUTED IN SUCH A
00:15:45.77\00:15:48.68
UNIQUE WAY TO BRING SALT TO
WHERE IT IS TODAY AND SO I'M SO
00:15:48.68\00:15:52.45
GRATEFUL TO SEE GOD USE ALL
THESE DIFFERENT PEOPLE AND MAKE
00:15:52.45\00:15:59.62
IT HAPPEN. >> WHEN
THE LORD CALLED ME TOO
00:15:59.62\00:16:03.06
FULL-TIME MINISTRY I HEARD A
STILL SMALL VOICE OF THE LORD
00:16:03.06\00:16:06.66
AND WHEN I ACCEPTED HE SAID
ALWAYS BEFORE YOU PUT YOUR HAND
00:16:06.66\00:16:11.83
TO THE CLOUD AND TURNED BACK BUT
NOT THIS TIME FOR I WILL CUP MY
00:16:11.83\00:16:16.71
HAND OVER YOURS
AND DO YOU KNOW WHAT?
00:16:16.71\00:16:20.54
FOR US THE SAME THING.
YOU LIKE STEPPED OUT OF THE
00:16:20.54\00:16:25.95
CORPORATE ROLLED AND A PAYING
POSITION AND IT WAS HE BELIEVED
00:16:25.95\00:16:32.25
THAT GOD HAD CALLED ME AND I
KNEW GOD HAD CALLED ME AND YOU
00:16:32.25\00:16:37.63
KNOW, GOD IS SO GOOD AND GIVING.
>> IT'S TOO BAD WE DON'T HAVE
00:16:37.63\00:16:41.30
THREE HOURS BECAUSE I THINK
IT IS SOMETHING THAT MOST PEOPLE
00:16:41.30\00:16:44.80
THINK WHAT DO YOU
MEAN I HEARD FROM GOD?
00:16:44.80\00:16:47.57
YOU HEARD DO YOU
KNOW I HAVE TO DO THIS.
00:16:47.57\00:16:54.44
NEW KNEW THAT YOU
KNEW YOU HEARD GOD.
00:16:54.44\00:17:00.05
YOU KNEW. A LOT OF
PEOPLE ARE THINKING I
00:17:00.05\00:17:04.72
DON'T HEAR ANYTHING. >>
YOU KNOW SOMETHING AND IT'S
00:17:04.72\00:17:07.36
KIND OF LIKE WHAT YOU
THINK ABOUT THIS PASTOR?
00:17:07.36\00:17:10.93
OUR EXPERIENCE WITH COMMON.
WE ALL HAD BEEN WALKING IN A
00:17:10.93\00:17:15.86
CERTAIN WAY AND WE BECAME
SEEKERS OF THE CHURCH AND WE GOT
00:17:15.86\00:17:20.87
TO THE WORD AND WE WERE REALLY
SEEKING A RELATIONSHIP FROM THE
00:17:20.87\00:17:24.67
LORD AND I THINK THAT IF YOU
WANT TO HEAR FROM GOD THEN HERE
00:17:24.67\00:17:30.91
IT IS. AND THE
INTERESTING THING IS AS
00:17:30.91\00:17:33.82
YOU GET TO KNOW THE LORD'S VOICE
AND WE WON'T PUT ALL THAT BUT
00:17:33.82\00:17:39.72
GOD TAUGHT ME WHEN I PRAY
THAT COMMUNICATION WAS TWO WAYS.
00:17:39.72\00:17:43.73
IT WAS A TWO WAY COMMUNICATION
AND TO WAIT TO LISTEN.
00:17:43.73\00:17:48.33
>> AND I WANT TO SAY QUICKLY,
BECAUSE I KNOW THEY ARE ANXIOUS
00:17:48.33\00:17:52.53
AS WELL BUT THE ONE THING THAT
ALL THREE OF YOU HAVE USED THE
00:17:52.53\00:17:58.31
SAME I GOT INTO THIS. BINGO.
00:17:58.31\00:18:07.05
IF YOU HAVING PROBLEMS IN
YOU DON'T KNOW WHO YOU ARE AND
00:18:07.05\00:18:09.25
YOU'RE HAVING AN IDENTITY
PROBLEM IT COULDN'T BE BE MAYBE
00:18:09.25\00:18:14.46
IF YOU OPENNESS? MAYBE
THE RIGHT WORDS, MAYBE IF
00:18:14.46\00:18:17.13
IT'S IN IN RED THEY WILL
JUMP AND CHANGE HER LIFE.
00:18:17.13\00:18:21.90
BECAUSE YOU KNOW THAT
YOU KNOW THAT YOU KNOW.
00:18:21.90\00:18:26.74
>> THAT'S ALL I SAY WE WANTS
TO HAVE ONE-SIDED CONVERSATIONS.
00:18:26.74\00:18:32.77
THAT'S WHAT IT LOOKS
LIKE IN ALL WE DO IS PRAY.
00:18:32.77\00:18:42.22
THERE NEEDS TO BE A STUDY OF
THE WORD BECAUSE THAT TITLE FOR
00:18:42.22\00:18:45.99
DIALOGUE NOT A
MONOLOGUE WITH GOD.
00:18:45.99\00:18:49.39
IT'S LIKE A DUMP TRUCK BACKING
UP AND THEN LETTING EVERYTHING
00:18:49.39\00:18:52.76
OUT AND THEN YOU TRY
TO RESPOND AND TAKES OFF.
00:18:52.76\00:19:03.64
GOING BACK TO THE WORD, EVEN
THROUGH LIFE YOU KEEP FACING
00:19:03.64\00:19:08.24
DIFFERENT CHALLENGES THROUGH
PERSONAL THINGS THAT WE GO
00:19:08.24\00:19:12.41
THROUGH IT'S ALWAYS GOING
BACK TO THE WORD AND AS YOU
00:19:12.41\00:19:16.05
MENTIONED, GROUNDED THAT
IDENTITY AND GOING A STEP
00:19:16.05\00:19:19.85
FURTHER, IF I COULD PIGGYBACK
ON THIS A LITTLE BIT OR VEGGIE
00:19:19.85\00:19:26.19
BACK. I BELIEVE
ALSO THAT PRAYER AND
00:19:26.19\00:19:32.83
THE WORD OBVIOUSLY IS
FOUNDATIONAL BUT THEN PRACTICING
00:19:32.83\00:19:36.87
WHAT YOU STUDY AND COMMUNICATION
AND TO PEOPLE CAN COMMUNICATE
00:19:36.87\00:19:43.95
BUT IF THERE'S NO ACTION
BEHIND IT HOW ARE YOU LEARNING?
00:19:43.95\00:19:49.42
AND SO I THINK THAT WAS
PART OF WHAT I KNOW FOR ME I WAS
00:19:49.42\00:19:52.89
STUDYING AND I WAS IN PRAYER BUT
WHEN I STARTED SERVING IT REALLY
00:19:52.89\00:19:57.59
BROUGHT EVERYTHING TO LIFE.
GOD WAS ABLE TO SPEAK TO ME MORE
00:19:57.59\00:20:02.60
CLEARLY WHAT I DO ALL
THREE AS OPPOSED TO TWO.
00:20:02.60\00:20:09.77
>> I THINK OFTEN WE SAY THAT
FAMOUS QUOTE KNOWLEDGE IS POWER
00:20:09.77\00:20:15.14
AND I THINK
KNOWLEDGE IS INFORMATION.
00:20:15.14\00:20:18.01
IT'S WHEN YOU
APPLY THAT KNOWLEDGE.
00:20:18.01\00:20:21.38
THAT BECOMES
POWER. >> THAT'S GOOD.
00:20:21.38\00:20:25.39
>> WISDOM IS APPLIED
KNOWLEDGE. >> LET'S BACK UP.
00:20:25.39\00:20:32.26
OKAY, YOU ARE WORKING ON GETTING
A ROADMAP I KNOW I'M SUPPOSED TO
00:20:32.26\00:20:38.53
DO SOMETHING. JUST
A POOR BOY THE LORD IS
00:20:38.53\00:20:44.74
INSTRUCTING YOU WHAT YOU DO?
YOU DON'T HAVE A TRAILER TO HAVE
00:20:44.74\00:20:48.58
GOOD CREDIT? NOPE
YOU'RE JUST STARTING OFF IN
00:20:48.58\00:20:52.55
LIFE. REALLY THIS
IS IMPORTANT BECAUSE
00:20:52.55\00:20:54.48
WE HAVE YOUNG PEOPLE HERE THAT
ARE WANTING A DIRECTION AND SO
00:20:54.48\00:21:01.96
OF ALL THINGS A
TRAILER. OF ALL THINGS.
00:21:01.96\00:21:07.60
BY IT PERSONALLY I HAVE SEEN
THESE TRAILERS AND O MY GOODNESS
00:21:07.60\00:21:15.77
GOODNESS. IT IS
INGENIOUS AS FAR AS I AM
00:21:15.77\00:21:18.64
CONCERNED BECAUSE IT SERVES A
CERTAIN NEED AND SO HOW DID THAT
00:21:18.64\00:21:26.98
I'LL START? >> IT'S
FUNNY YOU MENTIONED IT
00:21:26.98\00:21:29.75
BECAUSE IT'S KIND OF CRAZY
BECAUSE I BELIEVE MAY BE THERE
00:21:29.75\00:21:35.59
IS NO MONEY MAYBE THERE IS
NO EXPERTISE MAYBE THERE IS NO
00:21:35.59\00:21:39.69
MENTOR SHIP BUT IF YOU JUST
REMEMBER THE WAY THE HOMEBOUND
00:21:39.69\00:21:47.77
OUTREACH BEGINS IS TO WOMEN,
119, 123 AND THEY JUST COOKED
00:21:47.77\00:21:53.27
FOOD THEMSELVES AND THEY BROUGHT
IT -- AND THEY FEED JUST TEN
00:21:53.27\00:21:58.61
PEOPLE. THAT IS
WHERE THIS OUTREACH
00:21:58.61\00:22:01.18
STARTED AND THEN AFTER A FEW
YEARS IT TURNED INTO HUNDREDS OF
00:22:01.18\00:22:04.62
PEOPLE FEEDING HUNDREDS OF
PEOPLE BIWEEKLY AND THEN IN 2016
00:22:04.62\00:22:08.69
WHEN WE START IT THAT WE START
TO DO SURVEY TO GET TO KNOW THE
00:22:08.69\00:22:15.40
NEED AMONG THE UNSHELTERED THAT
WE GET CREATIVE AND WE SAY OKAY
00:22:15.40\00:22:17.67
THIS IS THE NEED BUT WE CANNOT
GET A BUILDING SO LET'S GET A
00:22:17.67\00:22:24.17
TRAILER SO WE GOT A CLOTHING
TRAILER IN 2016 WE USED $4,000
00:22:24.17\00:22:29.51
FOR CARPENTERS TO BUILD THIS
INSIDE THE TRAILER AND THAT'S
00:22:29.51\00:22:32.98
WHAT HAPPENED THERE
AND THEN MORE SURVEYS.
00:22:32.98\00:22:35.12
I HAD NOT SHOWERED IN THREE
MONTHS BUT I'M LOOKING FOR A
00:22:35.12\00:22:37.85
JOB. YOU'RE NOT
GOING TO FIND A JOB.
00:22:37.85\00:22:40.42
WE SAID HIGHLY PROVIDE SHOWERS?
WE CAN'T GET AFFORDABILITY SO
00:22:40.42\00:22:45.16
LET'S RAISE $40,000 TO GET THE
SHOWER TRAILER AND THAT IS HOW
00:22:45.16\00:22:49.50
THINGS PROGRESSED SLOWLY AND THE
FUNNY THING ABOUT IT IS THE CITY
00:22:49.50\00:22:58.31
OF ORLANDO WAS THE BIGGEST CITY.
ONE OF THE BIGGEST THAT DID NOT
00:22:58.31\00:23:02.81
HAVE A COMPREHENSIVE
DATA SERVICE CENTER FOR THE
00:23:02.81\00:23:04.51
UNSHELTERED AND UNKNOWINGLY
TO US, AND JUST HEARING THE NEED
00:23:04.51\00:23:10.59
FROM THE UNSHELTERED NOT ONLY
WERE THEY MEETING THEIR NEEDS
00:23:10.59\00:23:13.22
BUT THE NEEDS OF THE CITY
WITHOUT EVEN KNOWING IT AND THAT
00:23:13.22\00:23:17.66
IS WHY IT ALL CAME TOGETHER
IN THE CITY WAS SO SUPPORTIVE OF
00:23:17.66\00:23:20.10
THIS EFFORT WE STARTED
TO LAUNCH ALL THE PROGRAMS.
00:23:20.10\00:23:28.57
>> WE HAVE SEVERAL VIDEOS YOU
WANT TO SHOW YOU BUT I WANT TO
00:23:28.57\00:23:32.04
SAY THIS ONE BECAUSE I IT
WAS JUST SOMETHING THAT YOU ARE
00:23:32.04\00:23:36.11
KICKING OFF WHEN SOMEONE SAYS WE
HAVE A SHOWER FOR YOU LET'S LOOK
00:23:36.11\00:23:43.05
AT THE VIDEO OF THIS BECAUSE IT
IS AMAZING AND HER SOMEONE WHO
00:23:43.05\00:23:47.79
MAY NOT HAVE SHOWERED IN
TWO TO THREE MONTHS THE BIGGEST
00:23:47.79\00:23:50.83
BLESSING YOU COULD IMAGINE.
>> I AM WITH SALT OUTREACH AND

HOMEBOUND FRIEND WHO LINES UP AN

WE ARE AT THE SHOWER TRAILER AND
THIS IS PRETTY MUCH THE BREAD
00:25:18.78\00:25:24.59
AND BUTTER. ONE OF
OUR EMPLOYERS ARE HERE
00:25:24.59\00:25:27.59
AND THIS IS WHERE THE MOST
ACTION HAPPENS OUTSIDE OF THE
00:25:27.59\00:25:31.99
REGISTRATION TRAILER.
THESE ARE SPECIAL THANKS TO OUR
00:25:31.99\00:25:35.26
SPONSORS. THEY

SPECIAL THANKS TO OUR

00:25:53.28\00:25:56.82
WE LOOK AT THE DAY TODAY RUNNING
THE SHOWER TRAILER WHICH IS ONE
00:25:56.82\00:26:01.09
OF MY FAVORITE PARTS BECAUSE
IT'S SO BUSY AND YOU GET TO
00:26:01.09\00:26:04.49
INTERACT WITH THE PEOPLE AND
SPEAK WITH THEM AS THEY GO IN
00:26:04.49\00:26:07.23
AND OUT THIS IS WHAT IT LOOKS
LIKE IN THE SHOWER AND YOU COME
00:26:07.23\00:26:11.17
IN AND WE PROVIDE A TOWEL, WASH
CLOTH FOR EVERYONE THAT COMES IN
00:26:11.17\00:26:15.40
AND REPLACE IT IN THE TOILET ON
TOP OF IT SO WHEN THEY COME IN
00:26:15.40\00:26:19.97
THEY HAVE AT THE WASHCLOTH AND
THE TOWEL THAT'S NICE AND CLEAN
00:26:19.97\00:26:23.61
AND EVERY EVERYONE GETS CLEANED
OUT AFTER EVERY PERSON USES IT.
00:26:23.61\00:26:27.65
MOST FACILITIES I DON'T THINK
PROVIDE THOSE SERVICES THAT
00:26:27.65\00:26:31.82
CONTINUALLY CLEAN AFTER EACH
PERSON BUT WE MAKE SURE IT'S
00:26:31.82\00:26:33.82
CLEAN FOR EVERY PERSON THAT
COMES IN AND THIS IS THE SHOWER
00:26:33.82\00:26:39.03
ITSELF WE PROVIDE SHOWER GEL AND
SHAMPOO AND CONDITIONER AND WE
00:26:39.03\00:26:43.20
ALSO PROVIDE HEATED WATER
FOR THE PROPANE TANKS THAT WE.
00:26:43.20\00:26:47.74
THIS IS PRETTY MUCH I MEAN LIKE
NOT ROCKET SCIENCE BUT WE COME
00:26:47.74\00:26:53.74
IN AND WE TAKE A SHOWER AND
WE STEAM IT AND IT LITERALLY
00:26:53.74\00:26:58.78
CHANGES SOMEONE'S
WHOLE DAY TO TAKE A SHOWER.
00:26:58.78\00:27:02.45
FROM THERE, WE HAVE FOR A NUMBER
SHOWERS LIKE THREE OTHER SHOWERS
00:27:02.45\00:27:06.42
THAT CIRCLE AROUND THE TRAILER
AND WE HAVE A LOT OF VOLUNTEERS
00:27:06.42\00:27:09.62
THAT HELP OUT AND PROVIDE
SHOWERS OR PEOPLE DAY IN AND DAY
00:27:09.62\00:27:14.13
OUT. >> THIS IS INGENIOUS.
00:27:14.13\00:27:16.77
I CAN'T EVEN IMAGINE. I
HAVE WORKED OUT IN THE FIELD
00:27:16.77\00:27:21.94
FOR A LONG LONG TIME AND THERE'S
NOTHING BETTER THAN A SHOWER.
00:27:21.94\00:27:25.37
AND THAT DOES NOT EVEN A QUITE
BECAUSE I DO YOU GET TO TAKE A
00:27:25.37\00:27:29.58
SHOWER NORMALLY DAILY BUT STILL
THERE ARE SO MANY THAT IF I
00:27:29.58\00:27:32.61
COULD JUST GET A SHOWER. I
THINK YOU WERE TALKING EARLIER
00:27:32.61\00:27:37.55
ABOUT PATRICK. O MY.
00:27:37.55\00:27:39.99
>> YES PATRICK. A
VERY CLOSE FRIEND OF OURS,
00:27:39.99\00:27:44.59
BROTHER, FAMILY, HE CAME AT THE
BEGINNING OF 2019 AND WHAT HE
00:27:44.59\00:27:48.76
WOULD DO IS GET A SHOWER WITH
US AND WAS SO GRATEFUL THAT HE
00:27:48.76\00:27:52.63
WANTED TO CLEAN THE SHOWER AFTER
EACH PERSON AND SO HE WANTED TO
00:27:52.63\00:27:56.67
TAKE THAT LOAD OFF AND DO IT
HIMSELF SO HE DID IT THROUGHOUT
00:27:56.67\00:28:00.81
2019 AND WE DEEPENED OUR
RELATION WITH HIM AND GOT TO
00:28:00.81\00:28:03.28
KNOW HIM MORE AND CELEBRATED
HIS BIRTHDAY WITH HIM AND REALLY
00:28:03.28\00:28:06.28
SPENT TIME WITH HIM AND THEN
2020 CAME AROUND AND COVID 19
00:28:06.28\00:28:10.95
HEAD AND YOU KNOW THE CITY
ACTUALLY REACH OUT TO US AND
00:28:10.95\00:28:14.06
ASKED US TO OPERATE MORE
FREQUENTLY AND HELPS AT THE TIME
00:28:14.06\00:28:19.93
WE SAID WE DO HIRE STAFF BECAUSE
WE CANNOT JUST DO THIS ALL
00:28:19.93\00:28:25.00
VOLUNTEER ANYMORE AND SO ONE
OF THE STAFF MEMBERS WAS PATRICK
00:28:25.00\00:28:29.17
AND PAT WORKED WITH US AND AS
SOON AS WE HIRED HIM THROUGH OUR
00:28:29.17\00:28:33.58
PARTNERSHIP WITH THE HILTON
WE WERE ABLE TO GET HIM OFF THE
00:28:33.58\00:28:36.78
STREET AND INTO A SHELTER INTO A
PLACE TO LIVE AT THE HILTON THE
00:28:36.78\00:28:41.78
HILTON DID MORE THAN HOUSE HIM.
TELL US THE STORY BECAUSE THAT'S
00:28:41.78\00:28:46.29
ANOTHER BLESSING. >> YES.
00:28:46.29\00:28:49.62
OUR STAFF WITH A LITTLE
BIT CONCERNED AND WE WERE ALL
00:28:49.62\00:28:53.09
CONCERNED BECAUSE WHEN
COVID 19 HIT A LOT OF THE OTHER
00:28:53.09\00:28:56.73
ORGANIZATIONS THAT WERE SERVING
SHELTER SHUT DOWN OR CLOSE THEIR
00:28:56.73\00:28:59.03
DOORS THOSE OF HER FEEDING UNDER
THE PEOPLE STOPPED AND SO THOSE
00:28:59.03\00:29:02.60
ARE UNSHELTERED WERE KIND
OF STUCK AND ALONE IS THAT WE
00:29:02.60\00:29:09.38
OPERATED THREE DAYS A WEEK
AND WE FOUND OUT THAT -- WE KNEW
00:29:09.38\00:29:14.38
THAT OUR STAFF WAS FEELING
UNEASY ABOUT OPERATING DURING
00:29:14.38\00:29:16.75
THAT TIME. WE ARE
IN OUTSIDE OPERATION SO
00:29:16.75\00:29:19.89
IT'S SAFE AND THAT'S WHY THE
CITY APPROACHED US BUT WE WANTED
00:29:19.89\00:29:23.66
TO FIND A SOLUTION FOR THAT AND
MY WIFE AND I WERE SITTING ON
00:29:23.66\00:29:27.40
THE COUCH ONE NIGHT AT LIKE
MIDNIGHT AND WE WERE THINKING
00:29:27.40\00:29:33.17
AND WE HAD A STRONG IMPRESSION
TO CALL THE HILTON AND I
00:29:33.17\00:29:38.21
REMEMBER WE JUST SENT AN E-MAIL
RIGHT THERE I HAD HER LOOK AT IT
00:29:38.21\00:29:43.04
BECAUSE IF I JUST SENT THE
E-MAIL AND SHE DOESN'T EDIT IT
00:29:43.04\00:29:46.82
GOD IS NOT IN
THAT. I DON'T KNOW.
00:29:46.82\00:29:50.19
SO SHE COMES AND THEN ONCE THAT
IS DONE WE SEND IT OUT AND WE
00:29:50.19\00:29:54.82
GOT A PHONE CALL BACK AND
THEY SAID IT'S FUNNY THAT YOU
00:29:54.82\00:29:58.96
E-MAILED US BECAUSE WERE HOUSING
THE NATIONAL GUARD DOING TESTING
00:29:58.96\00:30:03.13
AND WE HAVE EXTRA ROOMS FOR YOUR
STAFF WHY DON'T YOU HAVE YOUR
00:30:03.13\00:30:06.17
STAFF COME HERE AND THEY CAN
SPEND THE NIGHT IF THEY WANT BUT
00:30:06.17\00:30:09.14
THEY COULD CLEAN UP AFTER THEY
WORK AND GO BACK HOME TO THEIR
00:30:09.14\00:30:13.94
VULNERABLE FAMILY MEMBERS AND
NOT RISK SPREADING ANYTHING TO
00:30:13.94\00:30:17.11
THEM BUT AT THE SAME TIME
THAT'S WHAT PATRICK DID TO GET
00:30:17.11\00:30:22.75
SOMEWHERE TO LIVE FOR THREE
MONTHS WHILE HE STAYED THERE WE
00:30:22.75\00:30:24.72
SAID WE WILL PUT MONEY TOGETHER
SO WHEN THAT IS UP WE CAN GET
00:30:24.72\00:30:29.56
HIM INTO HOUSING AND SO THAT IS
WHAT OUR STRATEGY WAS WHEN THAT
00:30:29.56\00:30:36.06
HAPPENED. >>
LET'S HEAR THE REST OF
00:30:36.06\00:30:38.67
PATRICK STORY. >> HE
CONTINUED TO WORK WITH US
00:30:38.67\00:30:43.51
IN AN ALMOST AT IN JUNE 2020 HE
STARTED TO LIMP AND WE WANT TO
00:30:43.51\00:30:52.78
GET HIM CHECKED OUT AND WE TOLD
HIM TO GO GET IT CHECKED OUT BUT
00:30:52.78\00:30:57.29
HE WANTED TO KEEP WORKING
AND IS SO IN JULY IT BECAME SO
00:30:57.29\00:31:02.22
UNBEARABLE THAT IN THE BEGINNING
OF JULY HE SAID YOU KNOW WHAT?
00:31:02.22\00:31:05.19
I'M GOING TO GO TO THE HOSPITAL
SO HE WENT AND THE DOCTOR SAW
00:31:05.19\00:31:10.53
HIM AND DID SOME TESTS AND THEY
CAME IN AND TOLD HIM THAT YOU
00:31:10.53\00:31:14.20
HAD STAGE FOUR LUNG CANCER THAT
SMITH TESTIFIED AND SPREAD TO
00:31:14.20\00:31:17.74
YOUR HIP AND YOU
HAVE A FEW WEEKS TO LIVE.
00:31:17.74\00:31:31.65
IT WAS SHOCKING AND IT HIT US
OUT OF NOWHERE AND HE WANTED TO
00:31:31.65\00:31:33.09
GET OUT OF THE HOSPITAL BECAUSE
THE HOSPITAL RESTRICTIONS OF
00:31:33.09\00:31:34.49
VISITORS WE COULD NOT COME VISIT
AND HE WANTED US TO BE ABLE TO
00:31:34.49\00:31:35.92
VISIT WITH HIM AND INSTEAD OF
GETTING THE PLACE TO LIVE WE GOT
00:31:35.92\00:31:38.06
A HOTEL DOWNTOWN WHERE HE COULD
STAY BY HIS FRIENDS AND FAMILY
00:31:38.06\00:31:44.80
AND IN THAT HOTEL ROOM HIS
LAST REQUEST WAS TO BE BAPTIZED.
00:31:44.80\00:31:50.27
HE COULD NOT MOVE MUCH AND SO
WE COULD NOT EVEN GET HIM TO THE
00:31:50.27\00:31:53.38
POOL THAT WAS RIGHT OUTSIDE
THE DOOR WE JUST FILLED UP THE
00:31:53.38\00:31:56.71
BATHTUB IN THE PASTOR CAME OVER
AND BAPTIZED HIM RIGHT THERE
00:31:56.71\00:32:02.85
APPEARED WE ARE HAPPY WE WILL BE
ABLE TO GET TO SEE HIM AGAIN IN
00:32:02.85\00:32:06.55
HEAVEN AND ABOUT A WEEK LATER
HE ENDED UP GOING BACK TO THE
00:32:06.55\00:32:10.16
HOSPITAL AND THEY GOT HIM INTO
HOSPICE MY WIFE AND I VISITED
00:32:10.16\00:32:13.56
HIM RIGHT WHEN HE HAD
TRANSFERRED THERE AND WE HUNG
00:32:13.56\00:32:16.06
OUT WITH HIM AND PRAYED WITH HIM
IN THE NEXT MORNING HE PASSED
00:32:16.06\00:32:25.11
AWAY. >> SERVICE
AND LOVE TOGETHER.
00:32:25.11\00:32:30.28
SALT. WHAT A TESTIMONY.
00:32:30.28\00:32:35.52
A SERVANT WANTING TO SERVE
OTHERS WILLING TO TAKE THE MOST
00:32:35.52\00:32:39.45
BUT HE WANTED TO SERVE.
SO SERVANT SERVICE PLUS LOVE
00:32:39.45\00:32:47.03
YOUR ACCEPTANCE YOU PUT THOSE
TOGETHER AND YOU HAVE SOLVED.
00:32:47.03\00:32:51.80
-- SALT. WHAT OF
A PERFECT EXAMPLE OF
00:32:51.80\00:32:56.50
WHAT SALT IS. >> IT'S
INTERESTING BECAUSE YOU
00:32:56.50\00:33:00.14
MENTIONED MENTIONED ORLANDO
HELPED FUND WHEN THEY WANTED UP
00:33:00.14\00:33:02.41
YOUR SERVICES DURING
COVID A. THEY DID NOT PUT ANY
00:33:02.41\00:33:05.61
RESTRICTIONS ON THEM, THEY KNOW
YOU ARE A FAITH-BASED MINISTRY
00:33:05.61\00:33:10.92
AND OBVIOUSLY THEY KNOW YOU
INTENTIONALLY INTRODUCE JESUS
00:33:10.92\00:33:17.53
YOU INTENTIONALLY MINISTER
TO THE SPIRITUAL AS WELL AS THE
00:33:17.53\00:33:22.13
PHYSICAL AND AS
THE OUTREACH PASTOR?
00:33:22.13\00:33:27.20
WHAT DO YOU DO? >>
BUILD RELATIONSHIPS.
00:33:27.20\00:33:37.35
IT IS REDEFINING WHAT A PASTOR
LOOKS LIKE BECAUSE I GET ALL THE
00:33:37.35\00:33:41.68
TIME AS WE TALK TO INDIVIDUALS
LIKE YEP HE'S A PASTOR BUT THEN
00:33:41.68\00:33:46.32
THEY SEE ME GETTING OUT OF
THE SHOWER SCRUBBING TOILETS OR
00:33:46.32\00:33:50.53
FOLDING CLOTHES AND DOING
LAUNDRY OR JUST IN THE OUTREACH
00:33:50.53\00:33:55.16
JUST OUT THERE ON OUT THERE
EVERY DAY AND BECAUSE THE MOTHER
00:33:55.16\00:33:58.93
EVERY DAY AND
OUR FRIENDS BY NAME.
00:33:58.93\00:34:03.91
SITTING DOWN HERE HEARING
THEIR STORIES AND BUILDING
00:34:03.91\00:34:07.34
RELATIONSHIPS AND TWO TIMES A
MONTH WE PUT A WORSHIP SERVICE
00:34:07.34\00:34:11.55
TOGETHER TO GIVE THEM THIS
EXPERIENCE WE BRING CHURCH TO
00:34:11.55\00:34:14.82
THEM AND BECAUSE WE DO THAT WE
PLUG INTO ALL DIFFERENT KINDS OF
00:34:14.82\00:34:19.55
CHURCHES IN ORLANDO.
THIS MONTH THIS CHURCH DOES
00:34:19.55\00:34:24.33
WORSHIP THAN THE NEXT MONTH
ANOTHER CHURCH DOES THE WORKSHOP
00:34:24.33\00:34:27.50
BUT BECAUSE I KNOW THE PEOPLE
AND THE STORIES DAY IN AND DAY
00:34:27.50\00:34:31.97
OUT I'M ABLE TO SPEAK WITH THEM
AND TALK TO THEM AND FOR ME THE
00:34:31.97\00:34:36.71
BIGGEST THING IT'S LITERALLY
JUST BUILDING RELATIONSHIPS AND
00:34:36.71\00:34:39.51
LETTING THEM KNOW THAT THEY ARE
HEARD AND THAT THEY ARE SEEN AND
00:34:39.51\00:34:43.41
THAT THEY ARE CARED FOR BECAUSE
MANY OF THEM SURPRISINGLY HAVE
00:34:43.41\00:34:47.32
THE BIBLE WITH THEM AND COULD
PROBABLY OUT SCRIPTURE MOST
00:34:47.32\00:34:51.59
PEOPLE THAT I KNOW.
LAST WEEK I WAS HAVING A
00:34:51.59\00:35:00.76
CONVERSATION ABOUT JON ONE AND
HE BEGAN TO BREAK DOWN THE GREEK
00:35:00.76\00:35:02.43
FOR ME AND WITH THE LOGO'S MEANS
AND WHAT IT MEANT FOR THE GREEKS
00:35:02.43\00:35:08.94
AND HOW IT'S UNDERSTOOD AND
GREEK CONCEPTS AND HE BEGAN TO
00:35:08.94\00:35:13.98
EXPOUND ON IT AND QUOTE
SCRIPTURE BY MEMORY AND I WAS
00:35:13.98\00:35:16.54
SITTING DOWN LIKE MAN THIS DUDE
IS PRETTY MUCH LIKE A THEOLOGIAN
00:35:16.54\00:35:22.95
THEOLOGIAN. WHAT HE
SAYING FOR THE MOST PART
00:35:22.95\00:35:24.39
IS ON THE MONEY.
BUILDING RELATIONSHIPS DAY IN
00:35:24.39\00:35:29.12
AND DAY OUT WITH THEM GIVES THEM
THE AVENUE AND TO BRIDGE THESE
00:35:29.12\00:35:39.90
SUBSTANTIAL DEEP SPIRITUAL
CONVERSATIONS BECAUSE A LOT OF
00:35:39.90\00:35:41.80
THEM ARE JADED BY CHURCH OR
JADED BY CHRISTIAN ORGANIZATIONS
00:35:41.80\00:35:48.28
ORGANIZATIONS. YET
WE ARE CHRISTIAN SOME
00:35:48.28\00:35:50.31
ORGANIZATIONS YOU CAN STAY
HERE BUT WERE FORCING YOU TO DO
00:35:50.31\00:35:53.92
SOMETHING IN SO MANY PEOPLE ARE
LIKE I'D RATHER BE IN THE STREET
00:35:53.92\00:35:58.12
THEN BE FORCED TO ANY CHURCH
OR CONCEPT OF YOUR CHRIST ON ME.
00:35:58.12\00:36:03.76
SO A LOT OF THEM IS
JUST BUILDING RELATIONSHIPS.
00:36:03.76\00:36:08.33
NOT JUST WITH STAFF BUT
WITH VOLUNTEERS AND ALSO OUR
00:36:08.33\00:36:13.37
HOMEBOUND FRIENDS. ALSO
REDEFINING WITH A PASTOR
00:36:13.37\00:36:16.14
LOOKS LIKE BECAUSE I'M NOT IN
OUT THERE AND JUST A T-SHIRT AND
00:36:16.14\00:36:22.51
JEANS AND REALLY AT THE
FOREFRONT I AM SERVING AND IT'S
00:36:22.51\00:36:25.28
BEEN REDEFINING WHAT CHURCH IS
BECAUSE THAT IS CHURCH AS WELL.
00:36:25.28\00:36:30.02
>> WHAT EXCITES ME IS THAT YOU
HAVE THIS MINISTRY RUN BY ALL
00:36:30.02\00:36:36.36
YOUNG PEOPLE. DO
YOU HAD A STAFF OF YOUNG
00:36:36.36\00:36:40.13
PEOPLE IN THIS IS PART OF
YOUR THE MINISTRY IS TO GIVE THE
00:36:40.13\00:36:46.50
YOUNG PEOPLE SOMETHING TO DO AND
I WILL NEVER FORGET WHAT TODD
00:36:46.50\00:36:52.11
SAID BEFORE
BECAUSE IT'S SO IMPACTFUL.
00:36:52.11\00:36:57.88
WE WERE GIVING A
YOUNG LADY A RIDE.
00:36:57.88\00:37:07.16
SHE ENDED UP LITERALLY SITTING
ON TOP OF THE LUGGAGE BECAUSE
00:37:07.16\00:37:11.56
HER CAR WAS FULL. I
LOOK BACK AT HER DURING THE
00:37:11.56\00:37:15.23
TRIP AND I SAID HOW DO WE KEEP
THE YOUNG PEOPLE IN THE CHURCH?
00:37:15.23\00:37:21.80
SHE DID NOT BRAND BLINK OR
TAKE A BREATH SHE SAID GIVE US
00:37:21.80\00:37:25.14
SOMETHING TO DO. IF WE
ARE COMING CHURCH AND YOU
00:37:25.14\00:37:29.98
ARE NOT USING US IN A SERVICE
SHE SAYS THAT IS WHY YOUNG
00:37:29.98\00:37:35.25
PEOPLE LEAVE. IT'S
THE WHOLE IDEA OF WHAT YOU
00:37:35.25\00:37:40.79
SAID, THE THREE THREE-LEGGED
STOOL, THERE IS THE WORD,
00:37:40.79\00:37:45.13
PRAYER, AND SERVICE, AND
THAT IS WHAT GIVES YOU A STABLE
00:37:45.13\00:37:49.50
CHRISTIAN LIFE. >> EXACTLY.
00:37:49.50\00:37:51.23
AND I THINK THE AMAZING
THING AND WE SEEING GOD WORK IN
00:37:51.23\00:37:56.14
DIFFERENT LEVELS OF THE
ORGANIZATION NOT JUST WITH OUR
00:37:56.14\00:37:58.37
CLIENTS BUT AT ONE POINT WE HAD
40 VOLUNTEER LEADERS BACK A FEW
00:37:58.37\00:38:03.78
YEARS AGO AND HALF OF THEM WERE
BACKSLID ADVENTIST YOUNG ADULTS
00:38:03.78\00:38:07.38
WHO CAME BACK INTO THE CHURCH
THROUGH VOLUNTEERING AND BEING A
00:38:07.38\00:38:11.85
PART OF THE MINISTRY. IT
WAS LIKE A DRIVING FORCE OF
00:38:11.85\00:38:15.66
GOING BACK CHURCH AND SEEING
THAT HEY THERE IS SOMETHING FOR
00:38:15.66\00:38:18.99
ME TOO DO HERE.
THERE IS MEANINGFUL SERVICE
00:38:18.99\00:38:22.73
BEING DONE IN OUR CHURCH AND SO
THAT HAS BEEN SOMETHING THAT HAS
00:38:22.73\00:38:29.34
REALLY BEEN KEY AND WE HAVE
SEEN A LOT OF THAT HAPPENING.
00:38:29.34\00:38:32.51
>> I THINK YOU FEEL
LIKE YOU HAVE PURPOSE.
00:38:32.51\00:38:35.18
>> SURE. >> YOU
FEEL YOU CAN CONTRIBUTE
00:38:35.18\00:38:45.92
SOMETHING AND IT'S MEANINGFUL.
>> AS TIME GOES BY I GUESS IT'S
00:38:45.92\00:38:50.73
JUST SURVIVING LIFE ITSELF YOU
KNOW IT IS A BUT MANY TIMES YOU
00:38:50.73\00:38:55.30
REALLY DON'T HAVE A PURPOSE
YOU'RE JUST GETTING UP IN THE
00:38:55.30\00:38:57.73
MORNING AND GOING TO THE RITUALS
AND GETTING UP AND SAYING THE
00:38:57.73\00:39:04.34
PRAYER AND GET UP IN THE MORNING
AND START ALL OVER AGAIN AND
00:39:04.34\00:39:06.71
THEN AS I GET OLDER AND I'M
SPEAKING FOR BOTH OF US, WE ARE
00:39:06.71\00:39:10.58
BEGINNING TO SEE THE
IMPORTANCE OF PURPOSE.
00:39:10.58\00:39:23.86
AT MY AGE A DAILY SOMEONE
SAYS WHEN YOU GOING TO RETIRE?
00:39:23.86\00:39:25.19
I GUESS IT IS A
GRAY HAIR AND WRINKLES.
00:39:25.19\00:39:29.86
I HAVE NOT
THOUGHT ABOUT RETIRING.
00:39:29.86\00:39:33.90
I'VE EVER BEEN AS SATISFYING IN
MY WHOLE LIFE AS I AM RIGHT NOW.
00:39:33.90\00:39:39.51
I'M GOING SOMEWHERE
WITH THIS. PATIENTS.
00:39:39.51\00:39:44.71
WE HAVE PURPOSE TOGETHER
TO GET UP IN THE MORNING.
00:39:44.71\00:39:49.32
DON'T WAIT UNTIL YOU'RE 70s TO
REALIZE HOW IMPORTANT PURPOSE IS
00:39:49.32\00:39:53.52
THIS IS ANOTHER ONE OF THOSE
THINGS THAT YOU PUT WITH THIS.
00:39:53.52\00:39:56.99
OPEN IT IT UP AND READ IT AND
SEE WITH THE LORD IS TALKING TO
00:39:56.99\00:40:00.70
ABOUT AND THEN
BRING UP THE WORD PURPOSE.
00:40:00.70\00:40:03.20
MAYBE WE FIND OUT THAT 20
-YEAR-OLDS PROBABLY NEED A
00:40:03.20\00:40:06.50
PURPOSE ALSO. >> THAT
IS WHERE SERVICE COMES.
00:40:06.50\00:40:10.87
THAT HIS PURPOSE. >> ONE
THING I WANT TO ADD IS IT
00:40:10.87\00:40:22.08
HAS BEEN A FULL BLESSING FOR
THIS ORGANIZATION FOR THE YOUNG
00:40:22.08\00:40:26.35
ADULT THIS GOES IN
LINE TO WHAT YOU'RE SAYING.
00:40:26.35\00:40:33.70
THEY LOVE AT THIS ORGANIZATION
HAS DONE SO MUCH THEY STARTED
00:40:33.70\00:40:36.77
CHAPTER AT THE UNIVERSITY
CALLED SALT OUTREACH AT UC N AND
00:40:36.77\00:40:42.84
THEY'RE LED BY DIFFERENT
YOUNG ADULTS IN THAT AREA.
00:40:42.84\00:40:55.65
THERE LED BY US BUT SOME OF THEM
DON'T EVEN NECESSARILY IDENTIFY
00:40:55.65\00:40:57.12
AS CHRISTIAN BUT THEY WANT TO BE
INVOLVED AND THEY WANT TO HELP
00:40:57.12\00:40:58.55
AND SO THERE IS A LEADERSHIP
TEAM OF EIGHT AND A FINAL UCF
00:40:58.55\00:41:01.29
STUDENTS TO THE
OUTREACH TO VOLUNTEER.
00:41:01.29\00:41:04.53
WE HAVE TWO TO THREE PEOPLE THAT
VOLUNTEER FROM UCF EVERY DAY
00:41:04.53\00:41:08.36
THAT WERE OUT THERE. >> I
AM ASSUMING THAT UCF IS IN
00:41:08.36\00:41:13.87
ORLANDO? >> YEP IT
IS RIGHT IN ORLANDO.
00:41:13.87\00:41:16.87
>> I WILL TELL YOU BECAUSE I
SAID THIS LAST TIME BUT WHAT YOU
00:41:16.87\00:41:21.68
ARE DOING I JUST BELIEVE
WITH ALL OF MY HEART THAT GOD IS
00:41:21.68\00:41:26.65
GOING TO START MULTIPLYING WITH
CHAPTERS IN OTHER CITIES AND WE
00:41:26.65\00:41:30.25
HAVE SO MUCH MORE
TO SHARE WITH YOU.
00:41:30.25\00:41:34.32
BUT I WANT YOU TO TALK ABOUT
FOR JUST A MOMENT, IT WAS ALL
00:41:34.32\00:41:39.59
VOLUNTEER UNTIL COVID HIT.
YOU WENT FROM SERVING THREE
00:41:39.59\00:41:45.90
TIMES A WEEK TO TELL US HOW MANY
HOURS ARE OPERATING NOW AND WHAT
00:41:45.90\00:41:52.14
YOU'RE DOING? >> WE
STARTED OPERATING THREE
00:41:52.14\00:41:55.01
TIMES A MONTH IN THE BEGINNING
OF 2020 AND THEN WHEN COVID HIT
00:41:55.01\00:42:01.45
AND WHERE I SAY THIS IS A
US THEY DON'T PROVIDE ALL THE
00:42:01.45\00:42:04.12
FUNDING WE NEED TO DO BUT WE'RE
PUTTING IN A LITTLE ABOUT HALF
00:42:04.12\00:42:10.29
AND THEY ARE DOING ABOUT HALF
BUT WE ARE DEPENDENT UPON GOD TO
00:42:10.29\00:42:13.26
HELP PROVIDE
THAT. THE OTHER FUNDING.
00:42:13.26\00:42:17.67
BUT THEY COME IN AND HELP
US OPERATE IN 2020 AND THEN NOW
00:42:17.67\00:42:23.61
NEAR THE END OF 2020 WE
OPERATE ABOUT SIX HOURS A DAY.
00:42:23.61\00:42:34.05
THE CITY IS SO SUPPORTIVE OF
WHAT WE'RE DOING STILL THAT TWO
00:42:34.05\00:42:39.32
WEEKS AGO THEY ANNOUNCED EXTRA
FUNDING THAT WILL HELP US TO GO
00:42:39.32\00:42:42.02
SIX DAYS A WEEK
EIGHT HOURS A DAY.
00:42:42.02\00:42:46.33
THAT WILL START IN TWO WEEKS.
THAT'S NOT JUST OUTREACH FOR
00:42:46.33\00:42:52.47
CASE MANAGEMENT AS WELL AND
I BROUGHT PICTURE OF OUR CASE
00:42:52.47\00:42:57.44

MANAGEMENT DEPARTMENT. WE

HAVE ANOTHER PROBABLY TOTAL
TEN IN THE FALL OF THIS YEAR AND
00:43:23.13\00:43:28.87
WHEN THEY ARE ALL JUST ASSESSING
NEED AND GETTING THEM ONTO THE
00:43:28.87\00:43:33.24
NEXT STEP TO ENDING THEIR
HOMELESSNESS THAT IS THE GOAL IS
00:43:33.24\00:43:36.24
WE BRING THEM IN WITH THE BASIC
OUTREACH NEEDS AND THEN WE HAVE
00:43:36.24\00:43:40.05
A CASE MANAGERS TAKE THEM
ON THAT JOURNEY AND MAKE A PLAN
00:43:40.05\00:43:42.28
WITH THEM. >> YOU
RECENTLY LAUNCHED, TO ME
00:43:42.28\00:43:47.89
IT'S AMAZING YOU HAVE THE
CLOSING TRAILER AND SHOWER
00:43:47.89\00:43:53.46
TRAILER BUT YOU RECENTLY
LAUNCHED A LAUNDRY TRAILER.
00:43:53.46\00:43:59.23
>> YEP. I WANT TO
ADD ONE MORE THING TO
00:43:59.23\00:44:01.57
WHAT WERE TALKING
ABOUT WITH THE UCF STUDENTS.
00:44:01.57\00:44:06.41
A LOT OF THEM EITHER DON'T HAVE
RELIGIOUS BACKGROUND AND SOME OF
00:44:06.41\00:44:10.81
THEM ARE CHRISTIAN BUT IT'S AN
AMAZING TO GET TO KNOW THEM AND
00:44:10.81\00:44:16.52
ALSO TO REDEFINE WHAT
CHRISTIANITY IS FOR MOST OF
00:44:16.52\00:44:23.06
THEM. I GOT TO
HAVE THE PRIVILEGE TO
00:44:23.06\00:44:26.09
SIT DOWN AND SPEAK AND TALK
WITH THEM AND WORK WITH THEM.
00:44:26.09\00:44:31.50
AMAZING BRILLIANT
BRIGHT INDIVIDUALS.
00:44:31.50\00:44:32.87
AND IN THE PROCESS I THINK
ONE OF THE MOST AMAZING THINGS I
00:44:32.87\00:44:35.27
HEARD FROM ONE OF THEM AS WE
WORK TOGETHER WHERE SHE WAS LIKE
00:44:35.27\00:44:39.81
MY EXPERIENCE WITH CHRISTIANITY
IN THE WAY THAT YOU GUYS VIEW
00:44:39.81\00:44:43.35
GOD REALLY IS ATTRACTIVE.
COMPARED TO WHAT I LEARNED
00:44:43.35\00:44:48.88
GROWING UP. AND IT'S
ALMOST LIKE THE STARK
00:44:48.88\00:44:53.86
CONTRAST ALMOST. A LOT
OF IT HAS TO DO WITH THE
00:44:53.86\00:44:56.26
SERVICE. YOU ARE
ACTUALLY LIVING OUT THE
00:44:56.26\00:45:01.10
WORDS OF CHRIST AND APPLYING
THEM IT'S A BEAUTIFUL EXPERIENCE
00:45:01.10\00:45:05.03
MEETING INDIVIDUALS AND SEEING
AND INTERACTING WITH THEM.
00:45:05.03\00:45:07.70
I HAVE INTERACTED WITH SOME THAT
DON'T BELIEVE IN GOD AND THAT'S
00:45:07.70\00:45:10.91
COOL AND WE TALK AND YOU KNOW
ONE OF THEM SHARED SOMETHING
00:45:10.91\00:45:15.91
ABOUT THE HUMAN BODY AND THEY
ARE STUDYING TO BE DOCTOR AND
00:45:15.91\00:45:19.51
SOMETHING THEY YEAR THAT WAS
AMAZING BUT THE HUMAN BODY AND
00:45:19.51\00:45:22.58
THEY TOOK IT AND ADAPTED IT TO A
LIFE APPLICATION AND HE WAS LIKE
00:45:22.58\00:45:27.86
I NEVER THOUGHT ABOUT IT THAT
WAY AND JUST THAT SMALL LITTLE
00:45:27.86\00:45:32.46
INTERACTION YOU
KNOW REALLY IS ENOUGH.
00:45:32.46\00:45:36.16
IT'S LIKE PLANTING
SEEDS. IT'S TRULY AMAZING THE
00:45:36.16\00:45:41.00
INTERACTION WITH THEM.
AND GOING INTO THE LAUNDRY
00:45:41.00\00:45:46.64
TAYLOR -- WAS --
TRAILER IS AMAZING.
00:45:46.64\00:45:52.38
THE CITY RECOGNIZED
IT WE HAD THE MAYOR.
00:45:52.38\00:45:55.62
>> EVEN GIVE YOUR PROCLAMATION.
>> YES TO GIVE IT A
00:45:55.62\00:46:00.92
PROCLAMATION. NOW IT
IS CONSIDERED SERVICE AND
00:46:00.92\00:46:04.53
LOVE THAT'S A PROCLAMATION.
>> SO ACTUALLY THEY ARE SAYING
00:46:04.53\00:46:08.86
THAT EVERY DAY --
EVERY YEAR APRIL 15th.
00:46:08.86\00:46:15.07
>> IT WAS A BIG CEREMONY WITH
CAMERAS AND RIBBON CLIMBING --
00:46:15.07\00:46:24.61
CUTTING. >> INCREDIBLE.
00:46:24.61\00:46:26.68
>> WE HAVE OUR INTERNS AND OUR
STAFF AND OUR SECURITY GUARD AND
00:46:26.68\00:46:29.48
OTHER PEOPLE VOLUNTEERING AND
WE HAVE THAT NEW STORY THERE ARE
00:46:29.48\00:46:38.33
NEWS CAMERAS THAT DID SOME
RECORDING OUT THERE AND WE CAN
00:46:38.33\00:46:41.43
PLAY THAT AS WELL. >>
WHAT DO THAT AS WELL AND WE
00:46:41.43\00:46:45.33
WILL SAVE THE LAST VIDEO FOR
NEXT HOUR BUT LET'S LOOK AT THIS
00:46:45.33\00:46:48.14
THIS. >> TODAY IS
NATIONAL LAUNDRY DAY
00:46:48.14\00:46:54.44

IDEA BUT THE CITY OF
00:46:54.44\00:46:57.11
ORLANDO ORLANDO IS CELEBRATING
BY LAUNCHING A NEW FIRST OF IT'S
00:46:57.11\00:47:00.78
KIND MOBILE LAUNDRY

TAKE THIS LAUNDRY TRAILER
IS A NEW ADDITION TO OTHER FREE
00:47:21.87\00:47:25.27
SERVICES LIKE A PORTABLE SHOWER
TRAILER WITH SPACE FOR HAIRCUTS.
00:47:25.27\00:47:28.68
>> IF YOU THINK ABOUT IT TAKING
A SHOWER DOESN'T MAKE GOOD
00:47:28.68\00:47:36.85
HYGIENE SENSE. >> THEY
PARTNER WITH SALT WHICH
00:47:36.85\00:47:42.06
STANDS FOR SERVICE ABOVE
TOGETHER AS WELL IS SIMPLY
00:47:42.06\00:47:44.86
HEALTHCARE TO BRING THE TRAILER
TO SHELTERS FOUR DAYS A WEEK.
00:47:44.86\00:47:48.26
OFFICIALS ESTIMATE THEY WILL
BE ABLE TO COMPLETE 240 LOADS OF
00:47:48.26\00:47:51.63
LAUNDRY PER WEEK.
IT'S ALL PART OF THE CITY'S
00:47:51.63\00:47:54.64
EFFORTS TO ENSURE EVERY RESIDENT
HAS THEIR BASIC NEEDS OF
00:47:54.64\00:47:57.17
CLOTHING FOOD AND HYGIENE MATT.
>> AS A WE WORK AND TRY TO FIND
00:47:57.17\00:48:03.41
WAYS TO END HOMELESSNESS WE KNOW
THAT WE HAVE TO DO SOMETHING IN
00:48:03.41\00:48:10.35
THE INTERIM. TO MAKE
SURE THAT OUR HOMELESS
00:48:10.35\00:48:16.12
RESIDENTS HERE IN THIS CITY OF
ORLANDO KNOW THAT THEY AND NOT
00:48:16.12\00:48:23.13
FORGOTTEN. WE WANT
TO LET THEM KNOW THAT WE
00:48:23.13\00:48:24.90
DO NOT JUST PASS BY AND
SEE A SHADOW WE SEE THEM.
00:48:24.90\00:48:32.67
>> WILL MOST PEOPLE SEE LAUNDRY
AS A CHORE TODAY A NATIONAL
00:48:32.67\00:48:36.64
LAUNDRY DAY THERE IS REASON TO
CELEBRATE THIS NEW AMENITY IN A
00:48:36.64\00:48:39.81
CITY THAT WILL HELP OUR
NEIGHBORS WITHOUT A HOME HAVE
00:48:39.81\00:48:42.58
ONE LESS THING TO. >> AMAZING.
00:48:42.58\00:48:50.46
WHO WOULD EVER EVEN THINK
ABOUT HAVING ESTATE LAUNDRY DAY.
00:48:50.46\00:48:57.07
>> YOU LOOK AT YOUR BABY
THAT YOU BIRTHED AND HERE WE ARE
00:48:57.07\00:49:01.17
THESE YEARS LATER IS
IN. -- IT CONTINUES TO GROW.
00:49:01.17\00:49:09.31
>> WE ARE SO SPOILED AND I
REMEMBER ABOUT EIGHT YEARS AGO
00:49:09.31\00:49:13.28
WE HAD A LIGHTNING STRIKE REALLY
CLOSE TO OUR HOME AND THESE
00:49:13.28\00:49:21.69
WASHING MACHINES ARE SO
COMPUTERIZED NOW WELL IT FRIED
00:49:21.69\00:49:24.66
THE MOTHERBOARD AND LIVING WHERE
WE LIVE OUT IN THE MIDDLE OF
00:49:24.66\00:49:29.50
NOWHERE IT TOOK ALMOST TWO WEEKS
TO GET A TECHNICIAN TO THE HOUSE
00:49:29.50\00:49:34.87
AND TO DO LIKE A $900 REPAIR.
COULD BOUGHT A NEW WASHING
00:49:34.87\00:49:41.84
MACHINE BUT THE POINT IS THAT
THAT WAS A MISERABLE TWO WEEKS
00:49:41.84\00:49:48.05
AND THE THOUGHT OF AS THE MAYOR
SAID, IF YOU ARE -- SOMEONE CAN
00:49:48.05\00:49:53.39
GIVE YOU NEW CLOSE BUT IF
YOU CAN'T TAKE A SHOWER IT'S NOT
00:49:53.39\00:49:56.66
GOOD HYGIENE TO JUST PUT CLEAN
CLOTHES ON A DIRTY BODY AND THEN
00:49:56.66\00:50:01.06
THEY HAVE SOME CLOTHES AND THEY
JUST HAVE TO KEEP WEARING THEM
00:50:01.06\00:50:04.27
UNLESS THEY CAN
GO TO THE LAUNDRY.
00:50:04.27\00:50:10.67
THAT'S SO
AMAZING. >> PRAISE GOD.
00:50:10.67\00:50:12.47
IT WAS TOTALLY GOT INSPIRED.
AND IT IT HAPPENED WITH JUST GOD
00:50:12.47\00:50:18.48
INSPIRING US TO JUST TALK
TO THEM AND GET TO KNOW THEM.
00:50:18.48\00:50:22.22
I SAID AS ALL THE TIME BUT I
THINK A LOT OF THE TIME WE GUESS
00:50:22.22\00:50:25.99
OR ASSUME WITH THE NEED IS OF
SOMEONE THAT IS UNSHELTERED BUT
00:50:25.99\00:50:32.23
BUT IF WE JUST GO AND TALK TO
THEM AND HAVE A CONVERSATION AND
00:50:32.23\00:50:37.40
HAVE A SURVEY THEN GOD LEADS THE
WAY AND YOU'LL ACTUALLY MEET IN
00:50:37.40\00:50:42.80
NEED THAT'S ACTUALLY NEEDED
AND NOT SOMETHING THAT THE
00:50:42.80\00:50:46.04
DUPLICATED OR IS NOT NEEDED.
>> I KNOW NOTHING ABOUT ORLANDO.
00:50:46.04\00:50:55.62
IS THERE A
BLOCK? IS THIS A SET UP?
00:50:55.62\00:50:57.92
YOUR MOBILE BUT DO YOU STAY
IN ONE PLACE FOR THREE TO SIX
00:50:57.92\00:51:01.92
MONTHS OR TWO WEEKS
AND THEN GO SOMEWHERE ELSE?
00:51:01.92\00:51:04.76
HOW DOES IT WORK? >> WE
USED TO ROTATE AROUND BUT
00:51:04.76\00:51:09.43
NOW WE HAVE
RECENTLY FOUND A HOME.
00:51:09.43\00:51:13.44
>> THERE IS THE CHRISTIAN
SERVICE CENTER THAT HOUSES US
00:51:13.44\00:51:17.04
AND THEY LET US PARK OUR TRAILER
THERE AND STAY THERE AND OPERATE
00:51:17.04\00:51:20.88
FROM THERE. TO THE
POINT THERE WHERE I THINK
00:51:20.88\00:51:24.41
WE GENERATE SO MUCH TRAFFIC AND
PEOPLE COME IN WITH A BUILDING
00:51:24.41\00:51:29.08
THAT THEY HAVE ACTUALLY OPERATES
FROM BUT THE GOAL IS TO ALWAYS
00:51:29.08\00:51:35.56
EXPAND. THAT'S THE GOAL.
00:51:35.56\00:51:37.63
>> AMEN. >> WHEN
YOU SAY EXPAND, MAYBE GO
00:51:37.63\00:51:43.67
TO DALLAS? OR MAYBE GO?
00:51:43.67\00:51:48.57
>> EVERY CITY NEEDS IT.
>> THAT'S WHAT YOU MEAN BY
00:51:48.57\00:51:51.64
EXPAND. >> IF A
DUPLICATABLE MODEL.
00:51:51.64\00:51:58.61
260,300,000 CAN GET ALL
THE TRAILERS NEEDED TO GET THIS
00:51:58.61\00:52:00.88
HAPPEN AND THEN ALL FROM THERE
ALL YOU NEED IS PEOPLE TO DONATE
00:52:00.88\00:52:05.19
SUPPLIES OR PUT THE MONEY TOWARD
SUPPLIES AND THEN HAVE STAFF AND
00:52:05.19\00:52:09.16
THEN IT'S RUNNING ANYWHERE.
ACTUALLY WE ARE IN THE PIPELINE
00:52:09.16\00:52:13.63
RIGHT NOW WITH THE TWO CITIES
THAT WE ARE LOOKING TO EXPAND
00:52:13.63\00:52:17.80
TO. WE HAVE
CEOS OF ORGANIZATIONS
00:52:17.80\00:52:21.40
AND COMPANIES AND CITY OFFICIALS
FROM OTHER CITIES THAT SAY I
00:52:21.40\00:52:24.27
WANT TO THIS IN MY CITY AND SO
WE ARE KEEPING IT IN PRAYER AND
00:52:24.27\00:52:30.05
IF IT GOES THROUGH WE WILL BE
INTO OTHER CITIES BY THE END OF
00:52:30.05\00:52:32.81
THIS YEAR. >> PRAISE THE LORD.
00:52:32.81\00:52:40.22
THE BIBLE SAYS DON'T DESPISE THE
DAY OF SMALL BEGINNINGS BECAUSE
00:52:40.22\00:52:44.23
GOD HAS MORE.
QUICKLY, TO TAKE US TO THE END
00:52:44.23\00:52:47.23
OF OUR BECAUSE YOU WILL
COME BACK AND SHOW YOU KNOW THE
00:52:47.23\00:52:52.00
LAUNDRY TRAILER AND GET A BUT WE
HAVE SOME INCREDIBLE TESTIMONIES
00:52:52.00\00:52:57.91
OF WHAT IS HAPPENING AMONG THE
PEOPLE AS FAR AS THEIR SPIRITUAL
00:52:57.91\00:53:03.65
NEEDS TO TELL US A BRIEFLY WHAT
-- WE HAVE FOUR MINUTES, BUT
00:53:03.65\00:53:07.85
TELL US HOW DID COVID CHANGE
THE POPULATION OF THOSE WHO WERE
00:53:07.85\00:53:17.63
UNSHELTERED? >> IN
2020 -- IN 2020 WE SERVED
00:53:17.63\00:53:25.60
1500 UNIQUE UNDUPLICATED PERSONS
WITH ABOUT 30,000 UNITS OF
00:53:25.60\00:53:29.87
SERVICE AND WE FOUND THAT
20 PERCENT OF THEM WERE NEW TO
00:53:29.87\00:53:34.91
HOMELESSNESS AND MANY OF THEM IN
MY CONVERSATIONS WITH THEM THEY
00:53:34.91\00:53:38.41
WOULD SAY THAT IT WAS COVID
IN 19 THAT LED TO THEIR HOME
00:53:38.41\00:53:41.25
HOMELESSNESS. WE HAD
A YOUNG GUY THAT WORKED
00:53:41.25\00:53:43.85
AT UNIVERSAL AND TO WITH
ROOMMATES AND COULD NOT PAY RENT
00:53:43.85\00:53:48.02
AND HE'S LIVING IN HIS CAR NOW.
ANOTHER MOTHER WHO DIDN'T HAVE A
00:53:48.02\00:53:52.43
GOOD RELATIONSHIP WITH HER KIDS
WORKING A JOB COULDN'T PAY HER
00:53:52.43\00:53:57.77
RENT IS LIVING IN A
CAR NOW. IT'S CRAZY.
00:53:57.77\00:54:01.04
I BELIEVE THAT AFTER
THIS PANDEMIC THERE WILL BE A
00:54:01.04\00:54:05.04
PANDEMIC OF HOMELESSNESS
THAT WILL FOLLOW AND IT'S ONLY A
00:54:05.04\00:54:08.41
MATTER OF TIME AND THE SO WE ARE
-- LAST YEAR ACTUALLY WE -- I
00:54:08.41\00:54:13.95
WILL SHARE WITH YOU THE OUTCOME
OF ALL OF THESE SERVICES AND HOW
00:54:13.95\00:54:17.79
IT MAKES A DIFFERENCE BUT
30 PERCENT OF THE PEOPLE WE
00:54:17.79\00:54:21.32
SERVE ACTUALLY TOOK THE NEXT
STEP TO END THEIR HOMELESSNESS
00:54:21.32\00:54:25.13
AFTER SERVICES WITH US THROUGH A
COORDINATED COMMUNITY EFFORT AND
00:54:25.13\00:54:28.86
17 PERCENT TRANSITION TO
SHELTERED HOUSING AFTER SERVICE
00:54:28.86\00:54:32.63
IS WITH US THROUGH A COORDINATED
COMMUNITY EFFORT AND I THINK
00:54:32.63\00:54:35.04
THOSE ARE THE KIND OF WANTS TO
CONTINUE TO SUPPORT AND WHY THEY
00:54:35.04\00:54:41.51
ARE TRYING TO EXPAND
OUR DAYS AND OUR HOURS.
00:54:41.51\00:54:52.95
>> I HAVE HAD THE CONVERSATIONS
WITH THESE INDIVIDUALS WHERE
00:54:52.95\00:54:57.83
LITERALLY THEY YOU TELL ME LIKE
I AM NEW TO THIS AND I DON'T
00:54:57.83\00:55:00.86
EVEN KNOW. THEY'RE
COMING FOR SERVICES AND
00:55:00.86\00:55:03.70
THEY DON'T EVEN KNOW WHERE TO GO
OR WHERE TO START THE FIRST TIME
00:55:03.70\00:55:09.74
AND IT'S A CONVERSATION. IT
HAS EXPANDED COULD YOU THINK
00:55:09.74\00:55:13.58
OF SOMEONE THAT DOESN'T HAVE
A HOME OR IS IN THE STREETS AND
00:55:13.58\00:55:16.24
YOU THINK IT'S BECAUSE OF X Y Z
WHAT HAS TO BE A CERTAIN KIND OF
00:55:16.24\00:55:21.22
ADDICTION AND FOR MANY
IT'S NOT IT REALLY IS NOT.
00:55:21.22\00:55:24.25
IT IS JUST A GUY TWO WEEKS AGO
LET ME KNOW AND THEN COVID CAME
00:55:24.25\00:55:29.86
IN AND THERE WENT TO WORK AND
THEY WANT THE HOME NOW I'M HERE.
00:55:29.86\00:55:34.20
>> YOU HEAR ALL THESE
RESTAURANTS ARE CLOSING DOWN.
00:55:34.20\00:55:39.80
ALL THIS STUFF HAPPENS.
>> WE ARE GETTING PRAYER
00:55:39.80\00:55:48.01
REQUESTS FOR PEOPLE TO -- ARE
WORKING ON PRAYER REQUEST OTHER
00:55:48.01\00:55:51.75
DAY AND THIS LADY WROTE IN AND
SAID I -- BECAUSE OF COPE IN 19
00:55:51.75\00:55:57.45
I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO WORK ALL
LAST YEAR AND NOW THAT THEY HAVE
00:55:57.45\00:56:02.86
HAVE LIFTED THE MORATORIUM
SHE SAID I'M ABOUT TO BE EVICTED
00:56:02.86\00:56:06.13
PLEASE PRAY THAT MY LANDLORD
WILL HAVE I WAS TALKING WITH
00:56:06.13\00:56:13.64
SOMEONE WHO IS A LANDLORD AND HE
SAID I WILL LOSE MY PROPERTY IF
00:56:13.64\00:56:18.84
I DON'T GET PAYING RENTERS AND
THERE AND SO THERE IS GOING TO
00:56:18.84\00:56:26.65
BE A CASCADING DOWNWARD TREND I
BELIEVE AND YOU KNOW WHAT WE ARE
00:56:26.65\00:56:32.42
GOING TO DO IS WE ARE GETTING
READY TO HAVE TO TAKE A BREAK
00:56:32.42\00:56:36.26
AND BUT WHEN WE COME BACK WE
WILL TAKE YOU THREE THROUGH THE
00:56:36.26\00:56:43.97
LAUNDRY TRUCK AND THE TRAILER
AND THEY HAVE SOME VIDEO -- I'M
00:56:43.97\00:56:48.74
SORRY THE LAUNDRY TRAILER IN
YOUR NEW THING BUT WE WANT YOU
00:56:48.74\00:56:54.81
TO HEAR THE STORIES OF THE
PEOPLE AND THE SERVICES THAT
00:56:54.81\00:56:59.58
THEY ARE OFFERING AND HOW THEY
TAKE THEM FROM BEING HOME LESS
00:56:59.58\00:57:04.39
TWO HOMEBOUND BOUND. IT
IS TO GIVE SOMEONE HELP.
00:57:04.39\00:57:10.49
IT'S ONE AND HAVE THIS MOMENT
BUT I MADE IT IS THE SUPPORTING
00:57:10.49\00:57:16.43
SERVICES THAT ARE GETTING PEOPLE
OFF OF THE STREET FROM -- SOME
00:57:16.43\00:57:21.80
AT THE SHELTER AND SOME INTO
JOBS AND SOME ARE ENDING THEIR
00:57:21.80\00:57:27.04
HOMELESSNESS IS
A BEAUTIFUL THING.
00:57:27.04\00:57:31.61
>> WHAT CAUGHT MY ATTENTION
WAS SERVICE AND LOVE TOGETHER.
00:57:31.61\00:57:37.45
NOT JUST ONE BY ITSELF. >>
IT TO JESUS' WAY OF MINISTRY.
00:57:37.45\00:57:43.63
YOU WILL WANT TO
HEAR WHAT'S COMING UP.
00:57:43.63\00:57:59.67
