00:28 Welcome.
00:30 In this time of need, I am happy to partner
00:32 with Child Impact International
00:34 to bring you the mini concert for the kids.
00:38 This has been a time of tragedy
00:39 for many people around the world.
00:42 And we hope that this program is a blessing to you.
00:44 Child Impact and its supporters
00:46 make a difference in the lives
00:48 of thousands of children in six countries.
00:50 And we also want to remember them
00:52 during this time.
00:54 I've had the privilege of being an ambassador
00:57 with Child Impact for a number of years
00:59 and have even traveled with CEO Jim Rennie
01:02 to India and Myanmar.
01:04 It was an unforgettable experience both times,
01:08 and I have seen firsthand
01:09 the transformational impact of sponsorship
01:12 and the work that Child Impact does.
01:15 Throughout our program, I will be dedicating
01:17 these songs to the children in the places where I visited.
01:22 The love of God is dedicated to Operation Child Rescue.
01:26 This is a home in Bangalore, India,
01:29 and the fine people there rescue young ladies,
01:33 young women from brothels and they give them new hope
01:38 and a new life.
05:29 Child Impact funds an Adventist Church School
05:32 for the Blind in India.
05:35 These young people would never be
05:36 able to get an education because they're blind.
05:40 But provision has been made for them to have an opportunity
05:44 to have their lives changed.
05:46 I remember playing for them
05:48 and they sang at the top of their lungs.
05:50 So, "Praise ye praise ye all ye little children"
05:53 is dedicated to the special kids.
07:18 Child Impact supports over 200 orphans
07:21 in Bangladesh and India.
07:23 When I was there, I got to visit Sunrise Home.
07:27 It is run by a lovely couple
07:29 and they have more than 110 children there.
07:32 Each has a tragic story.
07:35 But I want to focus on something
07:37 that I believe is truly miraculous.
07:39 I was told that that's a part of the country
07:42 where there are snakes
07:44 and poisonous snakes all around.
07:46 People get bitten and they die all the time.
07:49 However, no orphan child from that orphanage
07:52 has ever been bitten by a snake.
07:55 I picture an angel standing outside
07:59 guarding and protecting those children.
08:02 Truly, God will take care of them.
11:47 Thank you for joining us.
11:48 And as we get ready to close,
11:50 I just want to share with you one more experience.
11:53 In fact, it was my very first experience in India.
11:58 After a long set of flights, being jet-lagged and exhausted,
12:02 I woke up because Jim called and said,
12:05 "There is somebody
12:06 I want you to meet this morning."
12:08 And so we left the hotel and headed to a slum.
12:12 I'll admit to you, I've been to many places
12:14 around the world,
12:16 but I've never seen anything like that.
12:18 But in that slum,
12:20 I found somebody with a sparkle in her eye,
12:23 with enthusiasm and excitement for life.
12:26 To protect her identity, we're going to call her Mary.
12:30 Mary had gone
12:31 to the Adventist school in that slum.
12:34 Somebody had sponsored her all the way to graduation.
12:39 And then somebody sponsored her to go to high school,
12:42 and now she was in college.
12:44 And so I asked her, "What are you going to be?
12:47 What are you going to do when you leave college?"
12:50 And she said, "Jamie,
12:52 I am getting ready to become a nurse."
12:54 Having gone to medical school,
12:57 I was interested and excited and I said,
12:59 "Mary, why did you choose nursing?"
13:02 She said, "Jamie, both of my parents have AIDS.
13:05 In fact, many of my friends in this slum also have AIDS.
13:10 And so I want to be able to help them
13:13 when I graduate and take care of them."
13:17 Had it not been for those sponsors,
13:20 Mary could have been
13:21 trafficked several times in her life,
13:23 who knows what might have happened,
13:24 but now she is making a huge difference
13:27 in her community.
13:29 This is one of many stories.
13:32 I want to invite you to go to childimpact.org
13:36 and find out a little bit more
13:37 about the incredible work Child Impact is doing.
13:41 And if you're able to support,
13:44 I want to invite you to be a part of the where
13:48 needed most fund
13:51 takes opportunities, resources,
13:55 and then transforms them into hope
13:58 and a future for these young people.
14:01 May God bless you.
14:03 May He keep you safe and may we have the desire
14:07 to continue to serve Him to make a difference
14:10 in the lives of many people.
14:12 Soon, Jesus will return.
14:15 We will go home and there will be no more pain,
14:17 no more suffering, no more death.
14:19 But until then, we can make a difference
14:22 just like Child Impact is making a difference,
14:25 but it can't do so without your help.
14:27 Please consider
14:29 being a part of the Child Impact Ministry
14:31 and team today.
