00:01 Stay tuned to meet two young people
00:03 who answered their calling to ministry 00:05 and have been on fire for the Lord ever since. 00:07 My name is Jason Bradley 00:09 and you're watching Urban Report. 00:34 Hello and welcome to Urban Report. 00:35 While at the General Conference Session 00:37 I met so many young people that joined the ministry 00:40 and started making a difference in their community. 00:43 Mia Pile and Darnell Gordon are part of the 00:46 NAPS Organization. 00:47 An Organization that has made so many positive contributions 00:50 to Communities across the globe, 00:53 let's take a look at the impact they're having 00:56 in Communities around the world. 01:00 It always makes me so happy to meet young people 01:05 that are on fire for the Lord, today, I have two people with me 01:09 Mia Pile and Darnell Gordon from NAPS, 01:13 welcome to the Program. 01:14 Thank you for having us. Thank you, thank you. 01:16 Yes, yes, so everybody wants to know 01:19 what does NAPS stand for? 01:21 Well, NAPS stands for the 01:22 National Association for the Prevention of Starvation 01:25 and it basically just means it's an Organization 01:28 that's dedicated to meeting people's needs 01:30 not only their physical, but their spiritual as well. 01:33 Wow! that's deep. 01:34 Well, I've heard that you all have done 01:36 so many amazing things and we're going to get to that, 01:39 we're going to get to that in this Program 01:41 I want to hear the miracle stories, 01:42 I want to know, just everything that you guys 01:46 have witnessed as this Organization has progressed 01:49 but who is your ministry comprised of? 01:52 Well, our ministry is mostly comprised of 01:55 college students and graduates, 01:57 the Organization has been in existence since 1978 02:01 and honestly, whoever so willed, 02:04 we invite them to come out and serve. 02:06 Praise God, now, there's a common misconception 02:10 everybody... a lot of people... 02:13 I won't say "everybody" but a lot of people 02:14 think that NAPS is Oakwood and NAPS... 02:18 like what's the relationship there 02:20 because a lot of people think NAPS is a part of Oakwood. 02:23 Well, thank you so much, Jason, for asking that question, 02:26 actually NAPS was founded 02:29 at the wonderful campus of Oakwood University. 02:31 It was founded by the former 02:34 Dean of Biology there, Dr. Anthony Paul, 02:36 and it was there for about 35 years 02:39 but we've recently been able to have our own establishment 02:42 where we have a Wellness Center, we're about to have a school, 02:45 and so it was originally founded there, 02:48 however, we're now our own Institution, or Entity. 02:51 And so, how did NAPS start, 02:54 I want to direct this question to you Darnell, 02:56 how did NAPS start as far as, 02:59 what was the reasoning behind it, 03:01 who saw the need for it to come about 03:04 and how did it come into fruition? 03:06 That's a very good question, 03:08 so NAPS started off with college students 03:11 in 1978, they saw a need, they saw that there were people 03:18 who were under a bridge, who did not have any food, 03:21 who were in despair, 03:24 and they said, "You know what, we have so much" 03:26 I mean, it doesn't hurt us to go out 03:28 and give food to those who are hungry, 03:30 and so it started off small, you know, 03:33 they just started going out after church on Sabbath 03:35 and giving out food, and then they said, 03:38 "This is great, you know, we're making an impact, 03:40 but we want to do more," 03:41 and so they started saying, "You know what, 03:44 what if we went out into the Community 03:46 on Sabbaths and go out and... 03:48 go out and work with the children 03:50 teaching them more about the love of God, 03:52 working with them and telling them that 03:55 even though they may have been born in certain situations 03:57 or go through certain things that they still have hope, 04:00 they still can be successful" and that would give... 04:03 but then there was like... "You know, 04:04 this is great but we want to do more" 04:06 and so NAPS started going overseas to different countries, 04:10 our first mission trip was to Haiti 04:12 and now, we've been to over 23 different countries 04:15 across the globe, in Asia, South America, 04:18 in Africa, going around as missionaries for Christ. 04:22 Wow! that's huge, I love the fact that you guys 04:25 saw the need and by God's grace 04:30 you filled that need because, helping to develop the youth, 04:33 you know... it says... the Bible says, 04:35 "Train up a child in the way he should go... 04:37 or the way that they should go... " 04:39 and I think that that's so important 04:42 because you establish that foundation 04:45 which is very important 04:47 now, going through all these trips, 04:50 I know that it gets expensive, okay, 04:53 so, where is the financial support? 04:56 Well, one of the things that really helps our ministry, 05:02 we like to say, "It's a bunch of $5 bills," 05:05 Okay. but, it's different donors 05:07 from all over, different churches support us, 05:10 different schools, our parents, they support us, 05:13 we do a lot of canvassing, 05:15 we actually have a Pathfinder Band 05:16 that we'll use, and we'll march down the street 05:19 playing music, and people give... that way... 05:21 Well, that's a wonderful... 05:24 it's a blessing to support ministries 05:26 that are helping to further the gospel of Jesus Christ, 05:29 what disasters have you all helped people in? 05:34 So we've... we've been able to help with a lot of disasters 05:40 God has just really been good 05:41 and He just sets us up to be able to help 05:45 at the right time and so, we were able to go out 05:48 after 9/11, our team went... 05:50 all the way back in 2001 and our team went 05:54 and they hugged the families, we brought a Marching Band, 05:59 we were playing our Band, just encouraging families, 06:02 after Hurricane Katrina our team was there, 06:05 after the Haiti earthquake, our team was there, 06:08 and even after the Moore Oklahoma Tornadoes, 06:10 I was privileged to be a part of the mission 06:13 where we were able to go and help them with the rebuild 06:17 after their homes were destroyed, 06:19 I've never seen such destruction where I would look and see 06:23 miles and miles of houses destroyed 06:26 and places just really devastated, 06:29 and I'd see cars flipped over, everything... 06:33 and it was just a blessing to be able to go and be there 06:37 that time of hurting for those people 06:39 and we even sang at some of the funerals 06:40 of the children who died as well as the school there 06:43 so it was just a blessing. 06:45 One significant tragedy 06:47 that we were able to be a part of as well 06:49 was the Sandy Hook tragedy, 06:50 and we all know that many of those precious children 06:53 were killed but NAPS was actually privileged 06:56 not only to go and be among those who were mourning 06:59 but several of the families actually invited us 07:02 into their private moment, where at the funeral services 07:05 we were able to sing for those families 07:07 and not only that, but I'll never forget, 07:09 one of the families was actually an Atheist family, 07:11 and they were kind of saying, 07:13 "We don't why we've allowed you guys to come 07:15 but we just feel like this is the right thing to do" 07:17 and even at that Service, 07:18 we were able to give out some literature 07:21 and just to pray with the families and encourage them 07:24 so, it's just amazing how God will put His people 07:26 in the right places 07:28 when you step out for someone else. 07:31 Absolutely, now, with these disasters, 07:33 how do you guys come together as an Organization, 07:37 how do you strategize, how do you plan 07:39 how you're going to handle these situations? 07:43 Well, basically, 07:46 we've been training every Tuesday and Thursday morning, 07:50 and our training not only consists of Bible Study but also 07:54 in the event of a disaster what are we going to do, 07:57 even when we travel from different cities, 07:59 we may stay at churches or homes 08:02 where you basically have to be ready to rough it 08:05 because you don't know what kind of disaster situation 08:07 you're going to be in or when we go overseas on our trips, 08:10 we don't necessarily stay in a hotel, 08:12 we'll live with the people in huts where they live 08:16 is kind of where we're going to live 08:17 for six weeks, two months, 08:19 whatever the timeframe may be so a lot of times 08:22 going to those different churches 08:23 and cities, and, maybe sleeping on a church floor, 08:26 that is our best training for these types of scenarios. 08:29 Wow! wow, wow, 08:32 so it encompasses that self-sacrifice 08:36 you want to go, you want to live with the people 08:38 how they're living and you want to help bring them up 08:41 that is amazing, how does this... 08:45 how is this line of ministry... 08:47 how has this impacted your life, 08:49 let's start with you Darnell. 08:51 Yeah, well, this ministry has impacted my life 08:56 in ways that I cannot even put to words, 08:58 when I made the decision 09:01 after running for a while to come back to God, 09:05 to develop my relationship with Him, 09:08 I was in class 09:10 and my college professor, he was saying that 09:13 there was going to be food at his house, 09:15 and you can come, it was free dinner, free food, 09:19 and as a college student, I was like, 09:20 "This sounds like... something that 09:22 maybe in my best interest to go" 09:24 and so I went 09:28 and it was actually a NAPS meeting, okay, 09:31 but they did have food, but it was a NAPS Meeting 09:35 and Worship and while I was there 09:38 the Lord just kept impressing it upon my heart 09:40 to go... to go... and I'm just like, 09:42 "Lord... " I had so many excuses, 09:44 I felt like Moses when God was telling him to go and speak 09:48 and he was like, "But Lord... " that's how I felt 09:51 I'm like, "Lord, I'm inadequate, 09:53 I just came back to serving you again, 09:57 I need more time to develop my relationship, 09:59 I'm not holy enough, I'm not good enough, 10:01 I'm not trained enough," and God was just like, 10:04 "My grace is sufficient for you, just go... " 10:06 and I said, "Okay, I'm going to go on this mission," 10:09 and I went on that mission 10:10 and it was just a blessing to be on the mission field, 10:14 and to be able to minister to people 10:16 and it's just time and time again 10:18 their expression of joy 10:20 and really they just don't understand 10:23 a lot of times how we will go and give up 10:26 the comforts of our own homes and go and minister to them 10:29 to meet their needs and just seeing that 10:32 and experiencing that... 10:34 for me has really changed my life, 10:35 it really has deepened 10:37 my relationship with God 10:39 and really encouraged me to keep doing service 10:41 and even to add on to that, 10:43 I really believe that God had given me practical skills 10:47 even in being in this ministry to like... 10:49 we were able to build a Wellness Center 10:52 in Southern Alabama 10:53 and I was able to do some electrical work, 10:56 plumbing, putting on some carpentry, 10:59 all kinds of stuff, you know, 11:01 these are just basic skills that God has even given me 11:05 as I've been faithful to Him in this ministry. 11:07 Amen, now, what about you? 11:09 You know the truth is, Jason, what I've seen in this ministry 11:14 is that... if we, as young people, don't go 11:16 if we don't respond to the call of God's ministry, 11:19 then there is someone who is going to miss out, 11:22 you know, just like he was talking about 11:24 the Wellness Center, 11:25 we've been in a place where we've seen people 11:28 who basically have died for lack of medical care 11:31 and so that inspired us to have the Wellness Center, 11:34 we've been able to work with people 11:36 and help them reverse their Diabetes 11:37 and High Blood Pressure through natural remedies, 11:40 through NEWSTART, but the thing is, 11:42 if we weren't willing to go out and learn those skills, 11:45 if we weren't willing to just have 11:47 more than just a normal Christian life, 11:50 then we would be missing out on those testimonies, 11:53 but because God... He's calling all young people 11:56 to step out of your comfort zone and do something for him, 11:59 and it will be beyond your wildest dreams 12:01 and that's the one thing that I've learned 12:02 in being a part of this ministry, 12:04 is, if you just do what God says, 12:06 just respond to that conviction in your heart, 12:08 to step out... I mean, He has so much in store for you 12:12 it could be someone's very life. 12:14 Absolutely, absolutely, 12:16 I'm so glad that you all answered that call, 12:19 now, what can you tell me about the work you're doing in the... 12:22 is it the Black Belt? Yes, it is. 12:24 Is it Alabama and Mississippi? 12:27 Yes, actually, we're in a place called Sawyerville, Alabama, 12:29 which is between Mississippi and Alabama 12:31 and when you go there, it's almost sometimes 12:34 like going back in time, 12:35 just the education there is very, very poor, 12:37 the literacy rate is very low, 12:40 I mean, in terms of people 12:41 not really being able to read, we found, 12:43 also Medical Care is lacking 12:47 for most of the population there 12:50 and so it has been a blessing for NAPS to actually 12:53 to build a Wellness Center there, 12:54 we are also about to have what we call NALA., 12:57 NAPS Abundant Life Academy for those children 12:59 who've been having to bus 13:01 from like 4 in the morning 13:03 just to try to get an education they miss breakfast, 13:05 now they have a school a little bit closer to them, 13:08 so that they can get the type of Christian Education 13:10 that we've had the privilege to have. 13:12 Yes, yes, and see that's what's so great about NAPS 13:16 this is what I really like about NAPS is that 13:19 you guys, it's almost like 13:21 when NAPS walks into a room, 13:24 you don't have to go and announce 13:26 that you are a Christian, they can tell by your lifestyle 13:31 by the things that you're doing, 13:33 the fact that you make the choice 13:36 to live how these people live, 13:38 see, you go to the mission field and these people have... 13:41 they don't have the choice on whether or not 13:44 they can move from this hut to a mansion 13:47 or if they can move from this hut to an apartment 13:50 they don't have that choice, so you sacrificed your luxury 13:55 and you go over there and you live like them 13:58 and I know I said this earlier, but you live like them, 14:00 and sacrifice that lifestyle, 14:05 I mean, that's a true testament to me 14:08 of Christianity. 14:09 And you know, this is how I feel 14:10 that we as young people know Christ is real, 14:13 you know, there are so many young people 14:15 that are leaving the church now because they feel like... 14:17 "Is God even real, can I really believe the Bible, 14:20 I know I've grown up in this church 14:22 or going to church because somebody made me" 14:25 but honestly for me, Christ became real 14:27 when I started to go into the mission field 14:30 you know, when I started to see the Bible come to life, 14:32 I see people who are possessed of demons 14:35 and you pray for them in Jesus' name 14:37 and those demons have to flee, 14:38 people who could not walk for months and months, 14:42 we go there, do a simple remedy for them 14:44 and now they're standing on their feet walking 14:46 even ministries like Dare to Dream 14:49 you know, we actually play it at our Wellness Center, 14:51 and the 3ABN ministry, 14:53 We love that, we love that... 14:54 yes, it's making an impact, you know what I mean, 14:57 so, I know that Christ is real because we step out 15:00 of our comfort zone 15:02 and honestly, we say the word "sacrifice" 15:04 but it's really not a sacrifice 15:05 because Jesus has done all of this for us, 15:08 you know, and it's really more of a privilege 15:11 I'm seeing it now, than anything, you know. 15:15 Speaking of "privilege," being a part of 3ABN 15:18 has been a privilege 15:19 being a part of the Camp Meetings, 15:21 the different Camp Meetings that 3ABN has had 15:24 even them inviting us to come, 15:26 has really been a blessing, 15:27 and as we go out to do God's work, 15:30 and follow the call, 15:32 He opens up so many blessings for us, 15:34 one of the privilege that we have now 15:36 is now we have four new vans, Really? 15:38 we have four new vans that help us 15:40 and I'm going out to spread the gospel 15:43 and we want to give a special "thank you" to 3ABN 15:47 and all the different Viewers 15:49 and the people who've supported us 15:50 in being able to get that, 15:52 and it's just that, man, all God wants us to do 15:55 is to go... if you go, He'll provide the food, 15:58 he'll provide the transportation, 15:59 he'll give you the words to say, 16:01 everything you need, it's a package deal 16:04 all you have to do is "Go" and once you go, 16:07 all the different things will be added unto you. 16:10 And I think about your testimony, Jason, 16:12 like I was getting to read it in the magazine that... 16:15 I mean, I'm just appreciative of you 16:17 living transparently, 16:19 because somebody can benefit from your testimony 16:22 I think that's another thing, some young people feel 16:24 maybe they've gone too far, you know, like, 16:26 maybe God can't use me because I've done this thing 16:29 or this thing wrong... but look at you, 16:30 God is putting you to high places 16:32 and He's using your testimony to other young men 16:35 so that they can know, like know... 16:37 you know, this may have been where you started off 16:39 but you don't have to stay here, 16:40 "Just follow me and you will do 16:42 things that you never imagined. " 16:44 Yes, God is good, I mean, 16:45 I'm just happy that's He's still able to use me 16:49 and use us, if you look at the disciples 16:53 they weren't perfect by any means 16:56 but He helped them, He developed them, 17:02 He taught them, That's right. 17:04 and God can use anybody, anywhere at any time. 17:08 What do you think made you decide 17:17 to go into ministry? 17:19 Hmmm... wow! 17:21 for me, it's because someone actually came to my door, 17:25 I actually was 19 years old and I was an Atheist, 17:29 I didn't believe in God because 17:30 I couldn't understand why He would allow 17:32 certain things to happen, 17:34 being a survivor of rape and molestation, 17:36 I was like, "If God is real, 17:38 where was He when I was going through these things?" 17:40 But God sent Bible Workers to my door 17:44 and they started taking me to a Revelation Seminar 17:46 and they went out of their way 17:48 to make sure that I knew that Jesus actually loved me 17:51 and that that was not his original plan for my life 17:54 that there was actually a devil that was out to destroy me 17:58 and, now being a missionary, I feel that it is a privilege 18:01 to follow in their footsteps 18:03 doing the same thing for someone else 18:05 so that's what makes me do what I'm doing. 18:07 As I was saying earlier, when I did come back to God 18:12 from running, you know, 18:15 I went and started to do the mission work 18:18 but as I think back, four years later 18:20 I realize that... the different things that I... 18:23 the reason why I was even open to doing ministry 18:26 was because of the principles that my parents instilled in me 18:29 and I didn't see it then 18:30 but I remember there were many times 18:32 when my mom will be praying so much, 18:34 I'm just like, "Mom, why are you always praying?" 18:37 like, "why do you need to pray so much" 18:38 or my dad would give his time and his resources 18:41 when he didn't need to and in my opinion, 18:44 it wasn't necessary, 18:46 or there were times when my mom would be going out of her way 18:49 to help a needy soul, 18:50 and those things were instilled into me, 18:53 and that's really an encouragement to even parents 18:55 that your kids are watching and 18:58 they are watching the example that you set 19:00 and so I really attribute a lot of the reason why I'm here 19:04 today in ministry, 19:06 to my parents' example of Christ. 19:07 And praise the Lord for that, 19:09 now what are some of your current needs as a ministry, 19:12 what things do you need to help you with your ministry? 19:15 Thank you for asking that question... 19:17 No problem, we want to know. 19:19 Well, please... we are building a school, 19:22 like we said, 19:23 it's going to be in the Black Belt, 19:25 it's going to be serving K through 5 to start off 19:28 and we're really praying that we will be able to... 19:31 we've already started on the building, 19:33 we know God's going to bless, 19:35 but we need materials like, 19:36 materials to continue with the building 19:39 we need books, more books for our library 19:42 that we're going to have for them, 19:43 that's one of the huge challenges that we have 19:46 we also have a Wellness Center and it's already built, 19:49 we have dorms but we're now needing to add on 19:52 because there are so many people in that area 19:54 that want the Evangelistic Training 19:56 they want hands-on skills of plumbing, of agriculture, 20:00 how to grow their own food, and so... 20:02 even though we thought we'd built a big enough building, 20:04 we are finding that space is running out 20:06 so those are two major things that we're just praying, 20:10 "Lord, send people, and laborers" 20:13 we need more people 20:15 that are willing to volunteer for God 20:17 that are willing to make a sacrifice but then also 20:20 to realize that sacrifice comes with blessings 20:23 to come and give their time maybe doctors or dentists or 20:27 teachers that maybe can come down 20:29 and volunteer their services, cooks, all of that. 20:32 What are some of the things that you can think of 20:35 that maybe Mia might have missed? 20:37 Another big need that we have is 20:39 next summer we are going to Haiti on a mission trip 20:42 whenever we go to a Country to do a mission, 20:45 it's not just about doing the mission and leaving, 20:48 but we have to think about 20:50 after we've planted these seeds, how are they going to grow 20:54 if they're not taken care of and watered? 20:56 And so, whenever we go, we set up a branch 20:58 and we train other young people to do the work 21:01 in their own Countries but after a while, 21:04 as different discouragements come, 21:07 we see that sometimes... 21:09 there are branches... that... you know 21:11 they just need a little boost 21:12 now to go back and be like, "God is still with you" 21:15 and so we just go do re-visitations, 21:18 we go back and we visit the branch, encourage them, 21:20 remind them of why God... 21:22 remind them of why they're doing the work that they're doing 21:25 reminding them of the call that God has given 21:27 and encouraging them to press forward 21:29 and so we're going to be returning to Haiti next summer 21:32 and as you know, to go overseas, 21:35 to do a mission is not free, unless somebody sponsors you 21:40 so we do need help in that regard 21:42 towards our foreign mission and also prayers, 21:45 I know people may not always have the funds 21:47 to be able to support, but even if... 21:50 whenever we come to mind, pray for the mission there 21:52 even if you don't remember NAPS, 21:53 just remember the missionaries in blue 21:56 whatever will help just remembering 21:58 to pray for us as we go out. 22:00 Jason, I wanted to say too, 22:02 you know we travel around to different churches 22:04 and schools, so if you see the blue shirt, 22:07 we'd love to be able to do a Program for the youth there, 22:10 share testimonies, maybe go out with them 22:13 doing door-to-door or be able to do special music 22:16 and so, just look out for us as well. 22:18 Mia, what you said earlier is, 22:20 we're talking about the $5, what do you call it? 22:22 The five dollars... 22:23 Yes, yes, we survive by a lot of five dollar bills, 22:26 20s, 100s, everything. Yes, even a dollar, 22:28 sometimes people think that you have to give a whole lot 22:33 in order to... a dollar helps, 22:36 five dollars help, two dollars help, so... 22:38 Yes, it really does, it really does 22:39 we have people that have been giving for years 22:41 and we just are so thankful to the 3ABN 22:44 and Dare to Dream ministries 22:45 because of people like you, 22:47 we're able to share our ministry 22:49 and also share our testimonies, 22:51 and people always look out for us... so please look out for 22:54 Dare to Dream as well and for 3ABN. 22:56 Well, we are grateful for what you all do, 22:59 with the few minutes that we have left 23:01 I want you to look into this camera over here 23:04 and I want you to tell that young person 23:08 that is thinking about getting involved in ministry 23:10 why they should do it and tell them 23:14 a couple of your thoughts. 23:15 Wow! I'm speaking to you, whoever you are, 23:23 as a young person, 23:24 and I know how it feels to be a young person 23:29 and you want to do the right thing, 23:32 you want to follow God but there are always these 23:34 distractions, there are different reasons 23:35 there are different things that may stop you 23:37 but I want to say that doing ministry is worth it, 23:41 every sacrifice was worth it, 23:44 every friend that I lost was worth it, 23:46 every floor that I had to sleep on 23:49 in a foreign country was worth it, 23:51 it was all worth it for the sake of one soul 23:54 that will be in heaven, and I want to say that 23:56 all that is on this earth will pass away 24:00 these shoes, the latest shoes, the latest fashion trend, 24:03 even our highest educational pursuits, 24:07 one day, will be forgotten 24:10 but what will last in the end 24:11 is our relationship with Jesus Christ 24:13 and so I encourage you, if you have not already, 24:16 to develop that relationship day by day 24:18 to pray, read the Bible, 24:20 it may start with five minutes devotions in the morning 24:24 or even a minute, 24:25 but starting somewhere and developing what really matters 24:29 because what will it mean 24:31 if you gain this whole world but you lose your soul 24:34 and there are souls that are perishing right now 24:36 and God wants to use you. 24:38 Why do we give God... 24:40 a pastor was saying yesterday "Why do people give God 24:43 their later areas of life when they're older 24:46 and they can't do as much but want to use their 24:48 younger years of life for the devil?" 24:51 but I say, "Switch that around 24:53 and not waiting until you're too old 24:56 or waiting until you're older to start worshipping God 25:01 to start living for God, but even starting now 25:04 starting now, using the moments that you have today 25:07 because God wants to use you now 25:09 He wants to use the old person, He wants to use the young person 25:12 He wants to use everybody to do His work, 25:14 the commission was given, so... " 25:16 Amen, amen, in the 15 seconds 25:19 what do you have for that young person out there? 25:22 What I really want to say is, "Don't let pain... 25:26 pain that you have been through stop you from serving God 25:30 don't let any root of bitterness 25:32 keep you from giving yourself to the Lord, 25:34 He will heal you, 25:35 He will help you as you serve others, 25:37 you'll even receive answers to those questions you may have had 25:41 about why God may have allowed certain things to happen. " 25:43 Amen, amen, even you at home... 25:49 God can use you, you might not think... 25:52 you might think that you've done too much "bad" in your life, 25:56 God can still use you, and don't ever forget that 26:00 even the smallest things, just go out there, 26:02 go into the mission field, help somebody, 26:05 even if it's passing out some literature, 26:07 even the smallest things make a difference, 26:10 go win a soul for Christ. 26:12 I want to thank you guys so much for joining us today 26:15 it's been a pleasure having you on, God bless. 26:18 Thank you, thank you. 26:19 That is such a powerful ministry, 26:23 here are two young people 26:24 that follow that burning desire to serve Christ 26:27 and spread the gospel around the world 26:29 if you are interested in knowing more about NAPS, 26:32 please visit their website at www. napsoc. org 26:37 again that's www. napsoc. org 26:41 it was great meeting a lot of you 26:43 at the General Conference Session 26:46 it's such a blessing to know that these programs 26:49 are having such a positive impact on our Viewers 26:52 by leading them to Christ, 26:53 we couldn't do this without you, 26:55 some of you asked me about the ways to watch Dare to Dream 26:59 you can download the free 3ABN APP onto your Smartphone 27:04 or Tablet or you can make a one-time purchase 27:06 of a Roku box and watch D2D on your television, 27:09 of course, you can just go to our website 27:12 and watch us on your computer and while you're there 27:14 "Like" us on Facebook, 27:16 and check us out on Instagram and Twitter, 27:18 our Social Media info is on our website, 27:20 if the Holy Spirit impresses you 27:23 to support Dare to Dream with a tax-deductive love gift, 27:26 please send it to: 27:28 Dare to Dream, PO Box 220, West Frankfort, IL 62896 27:34 again that's Dare to Dream, PO Box 220, 27:38 West Frankfort, IL 62896 27:41 or give us a call at 618-627-4651 27:46 or check us out online at D2DNetwork. tv 27:50 I hope you've been 27:52 as richly blessed by this Program as I have. 27:55 Well, we've reached the end of another Program 27:59 join us next time and remember 28:01 it just wouldn't be the same without you. |
