00:22 - Hello, and welcome to Jesus for Asia Now. 00:24 I'm Natalie Wood, 00:25 and today my friend Natalie Howell is with me. 00:28 Hello, Natalie. 00:28 - Hello, how are you? 00:30 - Good, welcome to the show. 00:31 - Thank you for having me. 00:32 - Well, I'm glad you're here, 00:33 because we wanna talk about 00:35 your experiences in Cambodia recently. 00:39 Now tell me why you went to Cambodia. 00:41 - October 2018, yes, my family and I, we went to Faith Camp, 00:48 and while I was there, the need to go was great. 00:52 God told me I need to stop running. 00:54 And I remember, we were watching, 00:56 they were playing "Mission Trick" that Sabbath, 00:59 and God just said, "Look, you want your daughter 01:01 to go to the mission field, 01:02 but you're not willing to go? 01:05 And so what if, when you're ready for her to go, 01:07 she doesn't wanna go? 01:09 It'll be because of you." 01:11 And so I remember, I jumped out the seat 01:13 and i ran to John. 01:14 I was like, here I am, tell me where you want me to go. 01:17 And he introduced me to Miranda. 01:21 Yup, so that's how Cambodia. 01:23 - Cambodia came in. 01:24 Now what do you mean by running? 01:26 - Well, in 2014, He called us to go to the mission field. 01:31 And couple opportunities presented itself, 01:34 and I was like, naw (laughs), 01:37 no, I'm not ready to go. 01:38 You know, one thing after the other. 01:41 And so I realized at that moment that I was running. 01:45 And so it's our nature to run 01:47 when we have to do something different 01:50 that's outside of our comfort zone. 01:53 It's easier to run than face it. 01:56 So yes, I ran for four years (laughs). 02:00 - So when you went to Cambodia, your husband went with you, 02:03 and then your two daughters. 02:04 - Yes. 02:05 - Okay, did anyone else join you on this trip? 02:07 - Yes, three young people, 02:10 two young ladies and a young man. 02:13 And so I had five teenagers ranging from 14 to 18. 02:19 - Wow, I bet that brought up some challenges 02:22 and some interpersonal stuff. 02:25 - It did (laughs). 02:26 It was character building, yes. 02:29 But you know, I wouldn't trade it for the world. 02:31 It was a good experience. 02:33 They learned so many things: 02:36 how to deal with each other, 02:38 how to resolve conflicts. 02:40 I took the more hands-off approach, 02:43 because oftentimes teenagers and their drama 02:45 can bring you down, 02:47 so I try to let them work it out within themself, 02:50 and it was a blessing. 02:52 It was really a blessing having them with us. 02:55 - Okay, so what was the main purpose of you going? 02:58 - Well, we were going to see the project 03:00 that we were gonna be involved in. 03:02 - Okay, and what is that project? 03:05 - So we're trying to build a school in Cambodia, 03:09 in Battambong, in one of the major cities there. 03:12 And so they do not have an Adventist school in that city. 03:16 And so oftentimes, the schools there are six days a week. 03:20 And so if you're Seven Day Adventist, 03:24 then you have to make an option, 03:25 do I wanna go to church or do I wanna get an education? 03:28 - 'Cause the six days are including Saturday, not Sunday. 03:31 - Exactly, and so most make the choices to go on Saturday. 03:37 And so we wanted to provide for them an opportunity 03:40 where they actually have an option 03:42 where they can get your education 03:44 while still honoring God. 03:46 - Right, wow, that's a hard choice for them. 03:48 - Absolutely, absolutely. 03:50 I can't even comprehend, 03:53 at such a young age being faced with that choice. 03:56 - Yeah, that's hard. 03:58 Well, I know you've shared with me 04:00 some of the things that you started seeing and learning 04:03 when you got to Cambodia. 04:04 One of the things was, like, in the market. 04:07 You started seeing all these different foods 04:11 that you would never see in a market here. 04:13 - Not at all. 04:15 Snakes. - I know your favorite, 04:17 live snakes. 04:18 - I know (laughs). 04:21 Going to the market was really different. 04:24 Nothing really prepares you for it, nothing, 04:28 even all the stories you hear. 04:31 I remember our first day at the market, 04:35 your sense of smell is on overdrive. 04:38 You're trying really hard not to throw up, 04:41 because the smell, you know, 04:43 you have beef, chicken, everything is there, 04:46 and it's not like here where you have things in the fridge. 04:49 Everything is in the open. 04:51 There's no ice. - Pre-packaged. 04:52 - Yeah, there's no ice there, it's just there, 04:55 and so you just go pick what you want. 04:57 And so you're smelling all these things, 04:59 and it's different from what you're accustomed to. 05:02 When you go to the grocery store, 05:03 you don't smell anything here. 05:06 And so I remember that first time we were there, 05:10 we were all struggling. 05:12 And the kids, they had their faces covered, 05:16 and they're like, "I'm gonna throw up," 05:18 and all these different things. 05:19 And after we got back home, 05:22 I had to tell them, "We have to be careful 05:25 how we act out there. 05:26 We're trying to witness to them, 05:28 and we don't want to have our faces turned up, 05:32 and then turn around and tell them Jesus love them." 05:35 They're not gonna, you know? 05:37 So even though we're struggling, 05:38 we have to put aside our personal feelings. 05:43 And we speak a lot of, 05:45 we speak most with our face 05:47 than with the words out of our mouth. 05:49 - Especially when it's cross-cultural. 05:51 - Exactly, and so learning to not show it on your face. 05:55 I mean, I struggled there at times. 05:57 I was in the market and I saw a snake 05:59 and I jump and scream and like, "Agh!" (laughs), 06:02 and I had to take a deep breath, 06:04 'cause they stared at you (laughs). 06:07 And so, self-control (laughs). 06:11 - Yeah, huge thing. - But we worked through it. 06:13 It wasn't easy, it wasn't easy, 06:16 but every time you went, we got a little better. 06:20 I mean, even up until when we were leaving, 06:21 I still struggled. 06:23 There were times when I went in there, 06:24 and I was like, "Lord please (inhales deeply) help me." 06:29 - 'Cause it's so different from what we're used to, 06:31 and the smells and the sights and the sounds, 06:35 it can be very overwhelming. 06:37 So also want you to share a little bit about how, 06:41 you know, when we go as a missionary, 06:42 we think, okay, we're having a change of address, 06:45 we're gonna have this whole new life, 06:47 everything's gonna be great, I'm gonna be a missionary, 06:50 all this kinds of stuff. 06:51 But what's the reality? 06:53 What really happens when you change your address like that? 06:56 - All you did was change your address (laughs). 06:58 You bring your same botched-up character with you. 07:01 - You take your history, you take your baggage. 07:04 - Yeah, and so when you go over there, 07:08 it's different, because here you're in a Christian country, 07:13 we have this fakeness, we can hide stuff 07:17 and we can pretend things don't, you know? 07:20 You know how we do. 07:21 But then you're there 07:23 and you're really on Satan's territory. 07:25 And if you're not spiritually grounded here, 07:27 he gonna bust you wide open there. 07:29 And I saw myself struggling in so many areas 07:35 as I was there 07:36 and realized, and all I did was just change address. 07:38 I didn't become a new person. 07:41 Whatever temperament I had here, it was there. 07:45 I didn't come back 07:46 with these glamour stories of winning people, 07:49 I came back battered. 07:53 I think we have this expectation 07:55 that when you become a missionary, 07:57 all of a sudden, almost like you've arrived, 07:59 or you have a new status now. 08:01 - There's some sort of sainthood 08:02 or instant glorification or something (laughs). 08:06 - Absolutely, and I remembered that, 08:08 I was questioning myself, like, 08:12 does other people feel this way, 08:14 and I was kind of bitter and angry about it. 08:16 Like, am I the only one that's struggling? 08:18 'Cause you hear all these great stories, 08:21 you hear all these feel-good things, 08:24 and why am I not feeling good, 08:26 why am I struggling so much? 08:29 The culture shock, all these things 08:30 play into you being there. 08:33 You're adjusting to the culture, 08:35 you're adjusting to the climate, 08:37 you're adjusting to five teenagers in your house, 08:41 you're adjusting to the students that we have to work with. 08:45 So you find yourself, you just giving, giving, giving, 08:48 and you just feel broken, 08:52 'cause, I don't know, I just felt 08:54 drained. - You expected something 08:56 of yourself and of the experience 08:59 that wasn't reality. 09:00 - Absolutely, absolutely. 09:02 - And whatever was going on 09:04 in your relationships with your husband 09:06 and your own children, 09:08 they were still there when you went over there. 09:12 So many times I think we think 09:13 that there's some instant change thing 09:16 that happens to us on the plane 09:18 on the way over or something, 09:19 and suddenly we're this great, strong person, 09:23 and have the perfect spiritual walk and everything, 09:26 but we're still human. 09:28 We still need God every moment. 09:30 - Yes, and I think what didn't help 09:33 is that, from the moment we decided 09:37 to go into the field, 09:38 it was like one thing after the other, 09:40 after another started happening. 09:43 And so even up until the night we were flying out, 09:47 I was still putting out battles. 09:49 There was still things that was just popping up, 09:51 and so I went there 09:55 broken or battered or bruised. 09:59 You went there in a deficit, 10:02 and then nothing, there's no magic wand 10:06 that you just wave and you just get better. 10:09 And so it was really an eye-opening experience for me. 10:14 - So you went with certain expectations 10:16 and you found out that God is there with you. 10:20 I mean, He was there. 10:21 - He was there. 10:22 - But it was not easy. 10:23 - [Howell] It wasn't easy at all. 10:25 - Now talking about expectations, 10:27 you had seen videos, 10:28 you'd seen lots of pictures of the area. 10:31 And so you kind of had an idea of what to expect, 10:33 but then, no. 10:35 - Nothing beats reality (laughs). 10:37 - It was still totally different. 10:38 - It was totally different. 10:39 Nothing, I mean, you're overly stimulated. 10:43 You know, the crowd, the smelling, the poverty, 10:48 the trash, you know, 10:51 the seeing hopelessness all around you. 10:55 I don't know if you can really capture that in pictures. 11:00 When you look all around you and you're seeing idols. 11:05 I mean, I see those things, 11:06 you read about it in the Bible, 11:08 not realizing- - That it's real today. 11:12 - You read about Abraham, 11:14 and this is what, 4,000 years later, 11:17 and we still have the same things. 11:21 I realize that you really have to be grounded in God. 11:24 If you're not grounded here, 11:26 it's gonna be hard to be grounded there. 11:29 - Now talking about the different religion. 11:33 So here, like you said, it's a Christ country, 11:37 it's a Christian country here. 11:40 But over there, did you see a difference? 11:43 - I think what I saw was, 11:46 here, you know when the weekend comes. 11:49 You know Sunday, you see people go to church, 11:51 Sabbath, you see people going to church. 11:54 There, I probably can count on one hand 11:56 how many churches I saw 11:57 in the five months I was there. 11:59 You don't have a weekend. 12:01 There is no separation. 12:03 - They just work 12:05 every day of the week. - They just work 12:05 every day of the week. 12:08 I mean, like, the banks and some of those places, 12:09 they'll open on Sabbath. 12:11 They're closed on Sundays, 12:12 but outside of that, everything, everything. 12:16 So you can't tell the difference, 12:18 everything just continue just going. 12:20 Life just go from one day to the next. 12:22 And so you see people are tired. 12:26 The main religion over there is Buddhism, 12:29 but there's also animists, spirit worshiping. 12:32 And so that's totally out of our realm. 12:35 I mean, and here, we don't even talk about demons. 12:38 That's like a taboo. 12:40 - Well, we don't think they're real for one thing, 12:44 because we haven't seen them like they have. 12:46 - Absolutely, we just see it in different forms, 12:48 and they'll recognize that's what it is, 12:50 you know what I mean? 12:51 - We call it mental illness, or we call it- 12:53 - A variety of stuff but what it is. 12:56 - Now I know another thing you mentioned to me in the past 12:58 is that you started seeing, 13:01 like, looking for the reasons 13:03 why they did some of the things that are so different. 13:06 And one thing that really brought that to your mind 13:08 was the green fruit. 13:10 Can you share that with us? 13:11 - Absolutely, I was struggling 13:13 because you're in this tropical place, 13:16 they have endless amount of fruits. 13:18 And I grew up in the tropics, 13:20 so I'm accustomed to that, 13:22 so I was really happy. 13:23 And so you go and you see them eating green stuff. 13:27 And some of the green is like, 13:29 it's not even fully developed, 13:31 like, it's nowhere close to being ripe. 13:33 And so I sat there and I'm like, 13:36 why would someone eat something so young? 13:39 There is literally no nutritional value in that. 13:45 And I remember talking with one person before, 13:47 and they were saying how, during the war, 13:50 that they had to go out early. 13:52 You know that early bird catches the most worms. 13:55 So you go out there, and whatever you find, 13:56 that's what you eat. 13:58 - Foraging. 13:59 - Foraging, yes. - In the jungle. 14:00 - In the jungle. 14:01 So you grab, 'cause if you don't grab, 14:03 somebody else is gonna come and eat it. 14:05 - And if you're late going out? 14:06 - You're not gonna get nothing at all. 14:08 And so I realized that, even though the war has ended 14:14 21 years ago, 14:15 that that mentality is still there. 14:19 It's so ingrained and it's so a part of their life 14:21 that even though they don't have to do it, 14:25 they still do it. 14:27 - So when we look at that, 14:31 and we try to learn why they do what they're doing, 14:34 it makes it a lot easier for us 14:36 not to say, "Well, they're wrong." 14:38 - Exactly. - Or my way's right 14:41 or whatever. 14:42 - Oftentimes from the outside, 14:44 it's easy to look and pass judgment or condemnation 14:49 as to why people do the things they do. 14:51 And so, for me, it was eye-opening, 14:54 that in order to figure out why somebody 14:57 is doing what they're doing, 14:58 we need to understand the culture or the origins 15:02 or look beyond the surface. 15:04 - Right, the worldview. 15:05 - The worldview of what's going on, 15:08 and not just saying, "Well you know that's wrong 15:10 and you shouldn't do it." 15:12 'Cause it's easy for us to turn up our nose, 15:14 like, they're wrong and we're right. 15:16 How' bout we're both right. 15:18 - We're very black and white with stuff. 15:19 We like to be right or, 15:21 it's either right or wrong, we like it that way. 15:23 But it's not always that way with everything. 15:26 - Exactly, and one of the things I realized 15:29 is that I don't know what it's like 15:32 to grow up so impoverished. 15:35 I don't know what it's like 15:36 to grow up in a war-torn country or a zone. 15:40 And so because I don't understand that, 15:44 it's easy, when they do something, 15:46 to say, "Why did you do that?" 15:48 and realizing I need to place myself in their shoe, 15:52 what it must have been like losing families 15:57 and on the run or living in such poverty, 16:01 like, how do you even rise above that? 16:04 The mental oppression, not only physical, 16:07 but the mental oppression during that 16:10 or during that period of time. 16:12 And so once we try to understand their past, 16:16 then we'll understand their past affects the present, 16:20 and it also affects their future. 16:23 And that's where we can come in to help guide them 16:25 to have a different future 16:27 and not spend time finding faults 16:31 with why they do what they do. 16:33 And if we truly are Christians 16:36 and if we truly believe that Jesus is love 16:40 and we want to share that, 16:41 we cannot go over there with that attitude 16:44 of I'm here and you're there, 16:48 because truthfully we will not make it to heaven 16:51 if that's our attitude, if that's my attitude. 16:55 And so it's difficult 16:57 because sometimes things happen and it's frustrating. 17:01 But you have to ask God to help you. 17:04 Help me to see them the way you see me. 17:09 It's easy to say, "I don't wanna do this. 17:12 Let me go somewhere where I fit in, 17:15 where I don't stand out," 17:17 and recognizing that we have to go where God calls us. 17:22 - So the young people that are learning 17:24 to be teachers right now, 17:25 they were all born after the war. 17:27 But the other people that were helping, 17:29 the older young people that were helping you. 17:31 - Two of the people that we were working with, 17:34 they were alive during that period of time. 17:39 I sat down and talked with one of them, 17:41 and he shared what his family went through. 17:45 He lost his mom, he lost his brother during that time. 17:49 His brother was murdered. 17:51 His mom, I think, she end up getting sick. 17:53 His family was on the run. 17:55 They owed money, and so they took him and his brother. 18:00 - The people they owed money to. 18:02 - Yeah, and so they had to work to pay off the debt. 18:05 And so they had to, you know, they were kids. 18:07 They were under 10. 18:09 And so foraging to find food 18:12 and just different things 18:13 like I cannot even begin to understand at all. 18:19 I can't even pretend I understand. 18:21 I was just sitting there just so dumbfounded. 18:24 - That people could survive something like this. 18:27 - Yes, and then the beauty about him 18:30 was that, after all of that, he found God, 18:34 and now he's working full-time for Jesus. 18:37 He became a pastor. 18:39 And so you're able to see, 18:42 he's able to look at his life before, 18:45 and now see what God has done. 18:47 - Praise the Lord. - Amen. 18:49 - That's really awesome. - Absolutely. 18:51 - So when you look at them 18:52 and you look at the history that they have, 18:55 and you think about sharing Jesus with them 18:58 and sharing heaven with them, 19:00 is that a hard thing to try to share with them 19:03 what heaven is gonna be like 19:04 when they've gone through all this evil? 19:07 - You know, truthfully, I haven't tried. 19:10 - Because you don't speak the language. 19:11 - I don't speak the language. 19:13 You know, during that time, I actually realized 19:14 the importance of learning the language. 19:18 Our words that we have here, 19:21 there's not a word over there for it. 19:24 - So you're trying to explain something 19:25 that there's no- 19:27 - Explanation for. 19:28 - Wow, yeah, we saw that in Thailand. 19:31 It's like there's no word, 19:32 there's no concept for salvation 19:34 or for even the word saved. 19:36 It's like, saved from what? 19:42 They don't have that concept at all. 19:45 And so the idea of a Savior. 19:47 - Complete foreign. 19:48 - Like, what is that? 19:50 So you have to figure out how to explain it 19:53 in a language they can understand, 19:55 using words that they have and concepts that they have. 20:00 That's a challenge. 20:00 - It is. (both laugh) 20:02 But with God, all things are possible. 20:05 - That's true. 20:06 So when you went to Cambodia 20:07 and you started working with these young people, 20:10 now we're trying to build a boarding academy, 20:13 but you were working with young people already, 20:16 but we don't have a school. 20:17 So what were you doing, 20:19 what were these young people there for, 20:21 what was going on in the project 20:25 at that point in time? 20:26 - Okay, so we had some young ladies that were in college. 20:31 And so when we got there, 20:33 one of the things we started doing 20:35 was teaching them English. 20:37 We were teaching them English. 20:38 So every day we would go there 20:40 and spend a hour or a little bit more than an hour 20:42 teaching them English, 20:43 and then, in return, 20:45 they would help us to learn the language, 20:47 which is Khmer. 20:48 And so there were five of them 20:51 and there was five young people from my team, 20:53 so I paired them up. 20:54 And so they would teach them words. 20:57 So we would put papers around the house. 21:00 That's a door, that's a chair, 21:03 and stuff like that, 21:04 everyday things that they were using. 21:06 Going through the phonograms and stuff like that, 21:10 so that's what we were doing. 21:11 And then we started doing worship together. 21:15 And one evening a week, on Wednesday evening, 21:18 we started going through the book education. 21:20 And so, as we went through it, 21:22 we had somebody there that translated 21:25 to their language for them, 21:26 and we had these study guides 21:29 that we were going through with them, 21:31 just slowly making sure they understand 21:34 the importance of, not just education, 21:36 but true education. 21:38 How does God desire us to be educated 21:41 and to educate others? 21:43 - Okay, so I know that education is one thing 21:46 that really suffered because of the war, 21:49 because their goal was to kill all the intellectuals. 21:52 Everybody that had a pen, 21:53 everybody that wore glasses. 21:56 And so what have you seen 21:57 as far as their educational system? 22:00 I mean, these young ladies are in college? 22:03 What have you seen as far as the educational system? 22:06 Is it suffering? 22:07 Has it suffered, do you think, 22:08 from having the war kill off 22:10 so many of the- - Absolutely. 22:12 I see the lack, or the missing link, 22:14 in the education system. 22:16 So it's like, this is your work, memorize it, 22:21 and pass. 22:23 So they're not really, you know, 22:25 for example, it's probably better to give an example. 22:29 I was helping one of the young ladies 22:30 with some questions that she had to answer. 22:33 And so when I gave her the answer, 22:35 the teacher marked it wrong. 22:38 And so I told her, "No, he's wrong, 22:42 'cause this is what it's saying." 22:44 And so when she spoke to him and said, 22:50 "Based on the question you asked, the word meaning, 22:52 this is what it means," 22:54 he shut her down, and that it is wrong, 22:56 and this is how it's gonna stay. 22:59 - So there are huge challenges 23:03 in the area of education still. 23:05 - There is, and, you know, 23:07 when you look, Buddhism is taught, 23:10 and that's a class they have to take. 23:12 They cannot escape it. 23:15 And so that's why it's important for us to teach them 23:18 what true education is, 23:21 and not only teach them, 23:22 but to show them what it looks like, 23:26 so that when the school starts, 23:28 they'll be able to transition 23:30 and lead them to God. 23:32 - Right, so the purpose of these young ladies 23:35 going through college right now 23:37 is to become teachers for this school. 23:39 - Correct. 23:40 We wanna give back to the community. 23:43 And so oftentimes as missionaries, when we go there, 23:47 we teach them the Western way, 23:49 and so when they're finished, 23:52 they will try to move on to somewhere else. 23:56 Wherein if you educate them within their environment, 23:58 within their community, 24:01 then they will wanna stay around and help others. 24:05 - That makes a lotta sense. 24:07 You've gotta reach people in their heart language. 24:09 That's the most effective sharing of anything, 24:12 especially the gospel, 24:14 is when they can hear it and they can read it 24:16 in a language that they've known since birth. 24:18 - Absolutely, that's the first angel's message, 24:21 every nation, kindred, tongue, and people. 24:25 - So when you went as a missionary, 24:26 you saw that, well, you shared a quote with me, 24:30 that God didn't send you to the mission field 24:32 to save others. 24:34 He sent you to the mission field to save you. 24:37 - Yes, oh yes (laughs), 24:41 'cause you know, like we were saying earlier, 24:42 all we did is change address. 24:46 And so, for me personally while I was there, 24:50 I saw so many defectiveness in me. 24:54 - That's humbling. 24:55 - Yeah, absolutely. 24:57 And so we have this idea that I'm just gonna go over there 25:01 and I'm gonna tell them about Jesus 25:02 and I'm gonna win souls for kingdom 25:04 and all these different things, 25:06 and I had to sit back and realize, like, no. 25:11 He brought me here to show me 25:13 who I truly am, 25:17 that I am nothing and I don't know nothing, 25:22 and I am in need of Him. 25:24 - So you had to look at your purpose. 25:26 - Absolutely, absolutely, 25:28 and recognize how much I need Him, 25:32 and pray that as I'm clinging to Him, 25:36 that He will use me to save others. 25:38 But my first purpose, 25:41 His first purpose for me is to save me. 25:44 'Cause it's only as you do, 25:46 you realize that you're nothing. 25:49 And so oftentimes we are complacent here, 25:53 very complacent here. 25:56 You go there and you really realize 25:59 I don't have a church to hide behind. 26:02 I don't have friends to hide behind. 26:04 - I need Jesus. 26:05 - I need Jesus. 26:06 - Wow, well, that's powerful. 26:09 - It was eye-opening, humbling. 26:13 'Cause sometimes we like to think that 26:15 we're at a certain level. 26:19 We like to think that. 26:20 - And we look down at other people 26:22 from our high position of greatness. 26:26 - And you go to the mission field with that same attitude, 26:29 and He's like, no, you're all on the same playing field. 26:34 We're all in need of a savior. 26:37 We're all dying. 26:38 He's saying, "Look, you're dying. 26:40 "Come to me and live." 26:42 So the same message for them is for me. 26:45 It's not a separate message; it's one. 26:48 So we always talk about leading others to Christ, 26:53 and we forget ourselves, 26:56 'cause we think we already have Him (laughs). 26:59 - Wow, that's really powerful, 27:02 just to think about how much we need Him. 27:06 - Absolutely, and when you recognize that, 27:08 you're not quick to pass judgment. 27:13 You're not quick to look down on others, 27:16 because you realize we're all in the same playing field. 27:20 - We all need Him. 27:21 - We all need Him. 27:23 - Well, that's powerful and beautiful, 27:26 and I wanna thank you so much 27:27 for sharing so openly with me today 27:30 (Howell laughs) and with our viewers. 27:32 - Thank you. - It's been a privilege. 27:33 - Thank you, likewise (laughs). 27:36 - I would like to invite you to pray for the Howell family, 27:39 that they can very soon return to Cambodia 27:42 and to the project there. 27:44 If you would like more information, 27:45 please contact us at Jesus for Asia, 27:48 PO Box 1221, Collegedale, Tennessee, 37315. 27:54 Call us at 423-413-7321, 27:58 or visit our website at Jesus4asia.org. 28:02 May God richly bless you until we see you next time 28:05 on Jesus for Asia Now. 28:08 (triumphant music) |
