00:21 Hello, and welcome to Jesus For Asia Now.
00:24 I'm Natalie Wood 00:25 and I have my husband Jon here with me on the show 00:27 and we are doing Mumbai part two. 00:30 That's right. 00:31 Last week we learned a little bit about Mumbai... 00:34 Yeah. 00:35 And we started a trip with you. Yeah. 00:36 So we're going to continue that and finish that trip today. 00:39 That's correct. Okay. 00:40 And we're going to end up with a massive vision. 00:43 Okay. Yes. 00:44 All right, we're looking forward to that. 00:46 Yeah, but we want to do a little review. 00:47 Okay. 00:48 For those that may not have seen last week's show. 00:50 Okay. 00:51 We want to talk about the population of Mumbai. 00:53 Okay. 00:55 There's the two sections, there's the downtown section 00:57 and then there's the metro section 00:59 which includes all the suburbs and surrounding, 01:01 just the general, you know, 01:03 populated area, 21 million people. 01:08 That's a lot in there certainly. 01:10 Yeah, that's the size of New York City. 01:12 Okay, so that's the metropolitan area. 01:13 Yeah. 01:15 That's the entire area including all the suburbs, 01:16 what about just downtown? 01:18 About 12 million people. 01:20 12 million. 01:21 I didn't count them all myself, 01:23 so I haven't verified that number 01:25 but I'm going to take that as... 01:26 Taken it... 01:27 Yeah, I'm going to trust the... 01:28 Trust the census takers. 01:29 That's right. Okay. 01:30 12 million people, that's a lot of people, 01:32 that's a huge amount of people. 01:34 Okay, so this is a big city, we've established that. 01:36 World class city, financial hub of India, 01:40 lot of sky rises, lot of poverty. 01:43 The slum there is the world's second largest slum. 01:46 Okay. 01:47 Asia's largest slum, 01:49 the largest slum in the world is in Mexico City 01:52 but this is a really big slum, lot a slum. 01:56 Okay, so on the last show we looked at some churches, 01:59 we visited some churches 02:00 and they were in that outlying in the metropolitan area. 02:03 Yes. 02:04 And outside of that even in one village that we went to. 02:07 Yeah, two hours to one village, about an hour, 02:10 little over an hour to go to another slum, 02:12 about 45 minutes or more to go to the other church, 02:15 the last church that we visited. 02:17 Okay, so how many churches are there, 02:19 let's say in the downtown area 02:20 where there's 12 million people? 02:22 One. One. 02:24 It's an English. An English. 02:25 Yeah. 02:26 What are the languages there? 02:28 You've got, Marathi is the main language, 02:30 Hindi is probably the second language, 02:32 then a bunch of other languages. 02:33 Wow. 02:34 And we have an English church. One. 02:37 Okay. For 12 million people. 02:39 Okay, what about Mumbai Metro, the whole metropolitan area? 02:43 There's probably 20 or more churches 02:45 in the outlying regions, 02:46 in the, in the other parts of Mumbai. 02:49 So the story that the president told me was that 02:53 the original missionaries that were there 02:54 back in the 30s and 40s, 02:56 they lived in downtown Mumbai 02:58 and they built that center there 02:59 which has a church and the headquarters and rooms, 03:03 an apartment complex 03:05 but they did only evangelism on the outskirts, 03:08 and so now we have churches on the outskirts 03:10 but we have a downtown Mumbai, 03:13 which is un-evangelized and one church, 03:17 that's an English 03:18 and it was built in the 30s or 40s, 03:20 it's built in the 40s, so it's very old, 03:23 you'll see that in the pictures. 03:24 The variety of churches that we saw in part one 03:27 really illustrates how poor the church is, 03:30 some of the challenges, 03:31 all the travel that they have to do, 03:32 some of those things. 03:33 Yeah. 03:34 And especially in the slum, you know, 03:36 where we've had over 100 believers for quite some time 03:40 and they're not able to afford 03:42 to purchase a $25,000, you know, 03:46 place for them to worship. 03:47 And this has been like this for years, 03:50 and today we're going to see even more, 03:53 just how poor the section is 03:55 even though it's working in a world class city 03:57 where it's very expensive to live and to buy land, 04:01 build anything, 04:04 we're going to see just 04:06 they're not hardly able to do much at all, 04:08 but they're following God 04:09 and the new president that's there is, 04:13 he says, you know, 04:14 we just have to follow where God opens a door 04:16 instead of planning a program 04:18 and instead of trying to do our own thing, 04:20 we follow God wherever He opens the door 04:22 and I think that's the key, 04:24 and what I love about him also is that 04:26 he's bringing other people, 04:27 he's mentoring other people to be leaders 04:30 so that when he's gone, others will take over his work. 04:33 Wow, that's neat. Yeah. 04:34 So today we have the privilege of visiting 04:36 three more churches. 04:37 Yes. 04:39 How many of those are in the slum? 04:40 We have two of them in the slum 04:42 and the third one is that English Church 04:44 in downtown Mumbai. 04:45 Okay. Yeah. 04:46 All right. 04:47 So the first one is the Wadala slum church. 04:50 Now this, you may be surprised is considered 04:54 one of the established churches. 04:56 It's in a slum 04:57 and it's a product of our Bible workers 04:59 over the last ten years working in there but now it's, 05:04 we've got a congregation that meets there regularly 05:07 and the building that we have there is been 05:10 recently renovated. 05:12 Okay, so we're going to go to this building? 05:15 Yes, we're going to the street, this is the street. 05:17 And let's see if our viewers can figure out 05:19 which building is our church? 05:22 Okay, here we go. Okay. 05:32 All right, well, 05:33 can you tell which is our church? 05:35 Well, I know already because you've already told me 05:37 but it is hard to tell. 05:38 Yeah. 05:39 It just looks like any other building on the street. 05:41 Yeah, so let's walk there, 05:43 the next video is we're walking down the street. 05:50 This is a Saturday night, 05:51 so it's not like a Friday night, 05:53 we're trying to get ready for vespers 05:54 but we are going to worship. 05:55 So this is just walking down, getting in a taxi, 05:59 you notice how tiny that taxi is. 06:06 And now, look, 06:07 Jonathan is about ready to get run over by a water truck. 06:10 That's just normal. 06:12 Now we walk down this little alleyway. 06:15 You see the president up there in the white shirt, 06:17 the tall guy, pass some boys 06:19 and here's our church. 06:21 Okay, so that white fronted building there with the sign? 06:26 Yes, and we're coming inside, getting a warm welcome, 06:31 made to feel very welcome there, 06:33 pointing, okay, 06:34 you've got to go up front, so I walk down up front. 06:37 And now this is the people gathered for worship, 06:40 singing their hearts out. 06:42 Wow, that's really neat. 06:44 And of course, in India, they don't play guitars, 06:47 they don't have a piano and so they play the drums, 06:51 they clap their hands, they play the timbrel. 06:53 Timbrel? 06:54 Tambourine. 06:56 They play the tambourine and whatever to, you know, 07:00 keep the momentum going 07:01 and people in time with each other. 07:04 Okay. 07:05 So, but this is our group. 07:08 All right, and this is a recently 07:10 renovated church you said? 07:11 Yes, can't you tell? It's painted. 07:13 It's very... 07:17 It's got a big hole in the wall over there. 07:20 That's what I was thinking, 07:21 I was looking at this and think, 07:23 we need to renovate this. 07:24 Maybe we can, you know, 07:26 provide some paint or something like that 07:28 and then later I heard they had just renovated that 07:30 and they're very proud. 07:31 In fact somebody local had donated the funds 07:33 to renovate that church, they're very proud of it. 07:36 So I didn't say anything, 07:37 and so then we go to look at the other churches 07:40 and I start to realize, 07:41 oh, this is what they did... 07:42 It is renovated. 07:44 Yeah. Okay. 07:45 And so, but in this church there was the spirit of praise, 07:49 there is a spirit of worship, 07:50 there is a spirit of hungering for the word, 07:53 and this is a established congregation, 07:57 and we just praise God 07:59 because when I visited there... 08:01 You know, the first time 08:02 that I visited there was in 2009, 08:06 there was no church. 08:08 There was just a little group of people meeting in a house. 08:10 That was the track church. 08:13 And they go past the railroad tracks to go 08:16 and meet in this little house and now there's a congregation, 08:19 and they have the praise of Jesus on their lips 08:21 and this is a... 08:23 This next video is a testimony of how Christ healed somebody. 08:27 Okay. 08:54 So for that, God had healed my sickness 08:56 so I'm very thankful to Jesus and my dear God. 09:01 You know, beautiful place. 09:03 Yes, and that's a beautiful testimony 09:04 of how God worked in her life to heal her. 09:08 Yeah, and so God has jewels in the slums of Mumbai. 09:13 That's wonderful. 09:15 So tomorrow, the next day 09:16 which was a Sunday morning, 09:18 the pastor said, we got to get up early, 09:20 we had breakfast at like 7 o'clock in the morning 09:23 and we go to the next church 09:25 that they want us to meet, to visit. 09:28 And it's the Thane district church. 09:31 And so we, to go there, we go in an auto rickshaw. 09:35 Okay. 09:36 Which we're going to get in that on this video. 09:38 Okay. 09:39 And as we, as you can see very tight traffic. 09:43 This is going into the suburbs and this is a weekend 09:46 so it's not as congested as normal. 09:52 Normal. 09:53 Yeah but you can... And a guy walks by... 09:55 Yeah. 09:56 And you pass another guy and... 09:57 Yeah. 09:58 People crossing the street. 10:00 Turning down an alleyway, 10:01 you can see there's people just out 10:04 on the Sunday morning taking a dizzy. 10:06 You can see all the shops on the side. 10:09 People just laying out their clothes 10:10 for sale on the table there. 10:15 Guy on the phone walking by, minimal traffic. 10:18 Yeah, and there's just miles 10:20 and miles and miles of places like this. 10:22 Now this took us 45 minutes to get to. 10:25 So we're coming to the next church 10:28 which is the Thane district church. 10:29 Now this church is considered an established church, 10:32 it's been here for 20 years. 10:34 Okay. 10:35 Okay and it's got a really good... 10:39 Group of people. Congregation. 10:40 Okay. 10:41 In fact it's so crowded, 10:42 there's people sitting out on the street 10:43 on the Sabbath morning. 10:45 Which doesn't work well 10:46 when it's rainy season or monsoon. 10:49 Yeah, I'm sure that the crowds might thin at that time, 10:53 but we're going to go to that church and this again, 10:55 I'm going to ask you if you can figure out 10:57 which building our church is in? 11:02 I see what I think 11:05 it's the Seventh-day Adventist logo. 11:07 Okay, yep, there's the logo. 11:08 On that yellow building on the left. 11:09 Over on the left but you can see 11:11 there's some construction going on the right 11:13 and this is just a standard street 11:15 in the suburbs of Mumbai. 11:18 And so the next picture shows, this is straight on, 11:20 now the church, 11:22 our church is the one in the middle, 11:23 the building in the middle. 11:25 Now you might think this is just a church plant 11:28 or something but no, this is an established church. 11:31 So they've had that building a long time. 11:33 A long time and the building to the left of it 11:36 as we look at, 11:37 the yellow building on the left 11:39 that was for sale a while a few years ago 11:41 and it was selling for $16,000, 11:45 so they could have bought that building 11:47 and increased their space 11:49 but they didn't have the money 11:51 to buy the $16, 000 building 11:54 and so that's out there 11:56 and then somebody else bought it 11:57 and then they lost their... 11:58 Opportunity. Opportunity. 12:00 Now you notice that the building on the right 12:02 and on the left are both two storey buildings, 12:04 so now they are saying that they can build a second floor 12:07 on top of this church and it only cost $10,000 12:10 because they don't have to build the wall 12:13 on the right hand 12:14 and on the left hand they can just use the neighbor's wall 12:16 that's already built there. 12:18 So they have to do the front and back and the roof. 12:19 Exactly. Okay. 12:21 But the second floor will be larger, 12:23 they can build it larger than the first floor is, 12:26 it hangs out. 12:28 Okay. And that's okay. 12:30 In fact, they'll put the stairs up 12:32 to the second floor on the sidewalk outside 12:35 so that it doesn't take up any more space inside. 12:38 Okay, so that's their big prayer. 12:40 For the last six years 12:41 they've been praying for the $10, 000 12:45 to build a second floor. 12:46 And one of the challenges 12:47 they have a lot of kids that come, 12:49 so if they can have the kids upstairs, 12:51 then they can have more adults downstairs, 12:53 having the adult worship service 12:55 and then the children's worship service upstairs. 12:57 Okay. 12:58 So this is one of our big prayers in Mumbai is that, 13:02 that we can help them 13:03 build the second floor on this church, 13:06 the Thane district church. 13:07 Okay. 13:09 Getting to this next church was a huge thing 13:11 and this is the first time I've mentioned it, 13:13 but all along we've had little opportunities 13:15 to ride the train. 13:17 Now we say, we think of riding the train, 13:19 oh, that sounds like fun but... 13:20 Yeah. This was intense. 13:22 First time to ride the train, 13:25 it was Sabbath morning for me and they warned me, 13:28 they said okay to get on this train 13:30 you have to be pushy and I'm like, 13:33 I'm a Christian, I'm not pushy. 13:35 But you know, I'm aggressive, 13:36 you know, I'm a man, 13:39 I've been in Asia before, I can get on this train, 13:41 and so the train comes up, 13:43 everybody hops on and I'm like okay, 13:45 okay, All right, I can get on, okay, 13:47 all right and then everybody and our pastors, 13:50 the pastors are with me, they all hopped off 13:52 and then the train took off. 13:54 They're like, "Well, you didn't get on that one, did you?" 13:56 I'm like, "Oops." 13:59 They said that's all right, we'll wait for the next one. 14:01 Four minutes later another train came. 14:03 And I got little more pushy, I got on the train... 14:05 You got on the train. 14:06 I got on the train, but they were practiced. 14:10 And they went and got a seat for us. 14:11 And they says, we got a seat for you so they gave, 14:13 gave me a seat. 14:15 And we sat there for 45 minutes, 14:16 absolutely, cramped. 14:18 We're going to run this video, 14:19 while I keep describing my experience 14:21 because this shows you, 14:23 how many people actually get on this train. 14:25 Wow. 14:26 I mean, every single square 14:29 millimeter is filled up with somebody. 14:31 And I was sitting in a chair, in a seat, 14:33 a bench seat that was made for three people, 14:36 and there were five people on it. 14:38 And then the aisle between me, 14:40 between my knees 14:41 and the knees of the guy across the aisle from me, 14:44 had a bunch of people in it. 14:46 And it's hot and it's intense and you know, 14:50 you hear some scuffling 14:52 breaking out every once in a while 14:53 if people are trying to get in and get out. 14:55 Now, this video as you can see, 14:58 this was taken when there is almost nobody in the train. 15:01 On the train. 15:02 And I could have space to get my camera out 15:04 and actually take a picture. 15:05 But every single one of those, 15:07 those handles up on the roof 15:09 had at least one or two people on it. 15:11 Just absolutely cramp packed and that was very intense. 15:14 And hanging out the doors like we saw at the beginning. 15:16 Hanging out the doors, yeah. 15:17 And so that look on Jonathan's face. 15:20 He's dealing with it. 15:21 Okay. Yeah. 15:23 You know, he's dealing with this. 15:24 And it was very intense. 15:26 So we saw video of you taking the train. 15:29 Yeah. 15:30 And then we're going to see 15:31 some video of you going to next step, 15:34 getting to the church. 15:35 Yep. 15:36 Exactly, get out of the train, 15:37 cross the tracks and go up into the slum 15:39 where this other church is. 15:41 And the story of this church, 15:42 I got to tell you the story of this church. 15:44 Okay. 15:45 The Bible worker, you see over there in the left, 15:48 next to the president. 15:50 His parents were living right next door to this church. 15:54 Okay. 15:55 And they started witnessing to the pastor of this church. 15:59 They had planted this church. 16:01 He and his family had planted this church. 16:02 They had a wonderful congregation 16:04 going in this church building. 16:06 Okay, that was Adventist church? 16:07 No. 16:09 They were just Christian but they were non-Adventist. 16:10 Okay, so the parents of the Bible worker 16:12 were Adventist. 16:13 Yes. Okay. 16:14 And so they started worshipping with the people 16:17 and started sharing the truths and started sharing, 16:20 and the pastor says, 16:22 can I have Bible studies? 16:23 So they started doing Bible studies 16:25 and the pastor accepted the truths of the Sabbath 16:27 and the State of the Dead 16:28 and all of our distinctive doctrines 16:30 and started sharing them with their church congregation. 16:33 And pretty soon the entire congregation 16:35 starts worshipping on Sabbath. 16:37 Praise the Lord. Yeah. 16:40 That's awesome. 16:41 And then the pastor, 16:43 the original pastor that planted this church 16:45 felt call to go to plant another church 16:47 in another district. 16:49 So they left and they left our Bible worker 16:51 in charge of this church. 16:52 Okay. 16:54 And so now this church is led by our Bible worker. 16:58 And the house that his parents were living in has collapsed. 17:02 Oh, oh. 17:03 This will cost about one lakh rupees to rebuild, 17:06 and you're like what's a lakh? 17:07 Yeah, what is one lakh rupees? 17:10 A lakh is a 100,00 rupees. 17:12 Okay. 17:13 And what's the exchange rate? 17:15 It's like 63 to 1, 17:18 so it cost about $1600 to rebuild his parent's house, 17:22 so we're praying for that. 17:24 Yeah, they need a home. Yes. 17:26 We're gonna go inside 17:27 and we're gonna join the worship service. 17:29 Okay. So come be a part of this. 18:00 And what is the message? 18:02 The message is to fear God. 18:07 You read from the Bible... 19:03 Beautiful. Yes. 19:05 It's really neat to see 19:06 and they always come for prayer. 19:07 That was what the pastor was doing 19:09 at the end there with his Bible. 19:11 They believe in prayer. Yeah. 19:12 And so they want to come up afterwards 19:14 and ask you for prayer. 19:15 Can I have prayer? 19:16 Please pray for me. Yeah. 19:17 Sometimes they'll have specific things, 19:19 my back, my, you know, 19:20 my liver or something like that. 19:23 My husband is no longer working, 19:25 he's very sick. 19:27 At that particular place 19:28 we had a manifestation of an evil spirit. 19:32 A man came up to me and said, I have the spirit of, 19:36 evil sprit of laziness. 19:38 I'm like what? 19:39 Yeah, I got that too. 19:41 But then we started praying for him 19:43 and it manifested in a very strong way. 19:45 And the pastors there said, 19:47 this is very unusual 19:48 as far as the strength of the manifestation. 19:51 He started writhing and started 19:53 and he's speaking in their language 19:57 which I didn't understand 19:58 but the pastor said that he was saying, 19:59 I'm more powerful than you, 20:01 you don't have any power over me, 20:03 and he was speaking in a different voice. 20:05 You know, the pastor says, what we need to do is, 20:07 we need to go to his house 20:08 and see if there is anything else 20:09 because he's had this problem for quite a while. 20:12 I guess he's a government worker, 20:13 and so he's on disability, 20:16 so he still gets his regular income 20:17 but he's got this problem that he can't work. 20:21 And so they says, 20:22 we need to go to his house and figure out, 20:24 maybe something in his house is allowing 20:27 the evil spirit to stay there or something in his lifestyle, 20:29 maybe has a bad habit or something, 20:31 that's allowing the evil spirit to come and stay there. 20:35 Anyway, so this is where somewhat needs to be done. 20:37 So hopefully, yeah, 20:38 the Bible workers and the pastors there can... 20:41 Can follow up. Follow up, yeah. 20:42 Absolutely. 20:43 Yeah, and get that man clean. 20:45 So this is a picture of the outside of the church. 20:47 Okay. 20:49 And the former pastor is willing to sell 20:52 this building to us for one lakh rupees. 20:55 Okay. 20:56 So how much is that in US dollars? 20:57 About $1600. Okay. 21:00 Sixteen hundred dollars to buy a church. 21:04 Wow. 21:06 I haven't, I mean, this is amazing. 21:09 It's amazing that we haven't been able to do this yet. 21:11 Right. 21:12 And this shows you the poverty of the section there, 21:14 the church that's there. 21:16 Sixteen-hundred dollar church, that's nothing. 21:18 A $1,000, $1,600 that's nothing for a church, 21:23 for a place to worship in. 21:25 Of course, we'd like to fix it up. 21:27 And also like to build the second floor, 21:30 so the Bible worker can work there, 21:31 can live there. 21:33 Right. 21:34 And then he will have... 21:35 That will save him travel time. 21:36 Travel time, it will save him, 21:38 a huge amount of his income every month is in rent. 21:43 And so he'll be able to have that freedom 21:46 and be able to just, you know, function much better. 21:50 The last video that we have is back at the central church. 21:53 And the last day that we were there 21:55 which was a Monday morning 21:56 because we were leaving Monday afternoon. 21:58 We had a meeting, they all, 21:59 called all the Bible workers in the area 22:01 and met together in the central church. 23:08 So then after the service 23:09 we walked outside for pictures, 23:12 we took pictures with our Bible workers. 23:15 And as I was walking out, 23:16 I was thinking in my mind what I had seen 23:19 while I've been here in Mumbai. 23:21 I had seen, you know, 12 million people downtown, 23:25 one church, just one church. 23:27 In English. In English. 23:29 I'm like Lord, just praying to the Lord, 23:32 "Lord, what can we do? 23:36 How can we redeem the time? 23:38 How can we make an impact in this city?" 23:41 And I'm looking at this big church, 23:42 I'm like just one, 23:44 there needs to be at least one more. 23:46 How much would it cost to build a church like this? 23:50 A number came into my mind, two million dollars. 23:54 And I thought two million dollars, 23:55 there's no way, 23:56 that's so such a huge number, that's impossible. 24:00 But no with God, 24:02 so I went outside and my faith is little bit small. 24:05 I talk to the president and I says, 24:08 could you build another church like this one 24:12 in Mumbai downtown for a million dollars? 24:15 One million. 24:17 He's like, how much is that? 24:19 And so we did some calculations figured out 24:21 through the exchange rate. 24:23 He says, I could build six churches 24:27 for that amount of money. 24:30 I'm like six churches, you can build six churches. 24:35 For a million dollar? 24:36 For a million dollars. 24:37 And so I came home and I was talking to, 24:41 I shared that with some, 24:42 with the church congregation and they says, 24:44 where is your face? 24:46 Yeah. 24:47 What can you do with two million? 24:48 I realized you could build 12 churches. 24:51 Twelve churches for 12 million people. 24:54 One church per million people. 24:56 That's not bad. 24:58 That's better than what it is now. 24:59 That's a lot better than what it is now, yeah. 25:01 One church for 12 million people. 25:03 But you know what's amazing about that experience 25:05 when I was praying, 25:06 when I was talking to God 25:08 and I was talking to the president 25:09 out there in Mumbai, 25:10 is that I felt that my ambition was lying up 25:16 with God's ambition. 25:18 Don't you think... 25:19 He wants His people to be reached. 25:20 Yes. 25:21 He has a heart for Mumbai. 25:23 Absolutely. 25:25 And the president said, 25:26 there will be people in heaven 25:28 if we do this project because people will come. 25:32 They'll see a place that they can come, 25:33 they can learn about Jesus, they can learn about the Bible, 25:36 they can accept Jesus. 25:39 And so it's like this is a huge project but 25:41 and something that I believe God wants to do. 25:44 I have no doubt that God wants to do it. 25:46 And if He wants to do it, it can be done. 25:49 It's gonna be done. 25:50 And if enough people get involved... 25:53 It will happen. 25:54 God's will would be done. 25:56 Now the good news is that 25:58 we don't have to start with two million dollars. 25:59 No. 26:00 We can start with enough to build one church. 26:03 Yeah. 26:04 So we calculated that one church, 26:05 each church will be about a $180,000. 26:08 That sounds like a lot of money. 26:10 But what if we go to build a church here in America? 26:12 What will $180,000 buy us in America, you know? 26:17 We're gonna move a few walls around, 26:19 repaint and put new carpet. 26:20 Yeah, and some... 26:22 You know, just to remodel. 26:23 Yeah, in some places we won't even be able 26:24 to afford the permits to start. 26:28 Yeah. 26:29 So, you know, why not for them? 26:31 Yeah. 26:32 Why not for them? Yeah, exactly. 26:36 And then you left Mumbai. 26:38 So as we were leaving Mumbai, Jonathan Hill, 26:40 our foreign correspondent was in the window seat. 26:43 And he shot out the window this video of Mumbai, 26:48 and you can see, 26:49 just get a taste of how big this city really is. 27:01 Look at that city, 27:02 you can see way out from this distance. 27:04 And here we're coming to the beach. 27:06 That is huge. So many people. 27:09 Huge number of people and down there in the distance, 27:12 where you can see the buildings in the mist, 27:14 in the fog or haze whatever that is, 27:16 that's downtown. 27:19 And there is 12 million people down over there. 27:22 Wow. Yeah. 27:24 God has a lot of children out there... 27:26 He does. He does. 27:27 To be reached. 27:28 And He cares about the city. 27:30 He cares about the people in the city. 27:32 So I want to be part of this, I want to be part of what, 27:35 of God's end time solution... 27:37 Right. To reach His children. 27:39 Right. 27:40 And we've been talking about Mumbai, 27:42 but there is a lot of other areas too. 27:43 Yeah. 27:44 So I just want to invite our viewers, 27:47 if you would like to help with the great need in Mumbai 27:50 and beyond, 27:52 you can send your tax deductible love gift 27:54 to Jesus For Asia. 27:55 PO Box 1221, Collegedale, Tennessee, 37315. 28:01 Call us at 423-413-7321. 28:05 Or visit our website at Jesus4asia.org. 28:09 May God richly bless you, 28:10 until we see you again on Jesus For Asia Now. |
