00:01 Stay tuned to meet a couple
00:02 that turned tragedy into triumph. 00:04 My name is Yvonne Lewis 00:05 and you're watching Urban Report. 00:31 Hello and welcome to Urban Report. 00:33 My guests today are Rod and Mary Cassidy, 00:36 President and Vice President respectively 00:39 of Brianna's Wings of Passion Foundation. 00:42 Welcome to Urban Report Rod and Mary. 00:45 Thank you. 00:46 Wow! I almost don't know where to start 00:50 because yours is a story of such intensity 00:54 and something that no parent wants to deal with 00:59 but before we get into that part of your journey 01:03 tell us a little bit about yourselves, 01:05 Mary, where were you born, where are you from? 01:08 Southern California, I was there for well... 01:11 for quite a long time and went to school there 01:15 but I came from a real dysfunctional family, 01:19 my father was an alcoholic, he left when I was four, 01:22 so my mom raised eight of us on her own 01:25 and that was a lot of tragedy within the home too 01:31 because there was just so much oh... stress and you know... 01:35 but having my dad there, 01:37 he was very abusive to all my brothers and sisters 01:40 so, that was just a really hard time for all of us 01:43 him being an alcoholic and being around like he was 01:46 but there was always violence in our family, 01:48 my brothers grew up in the same path 01:50 incarcerated one after another, 01:53 and just violence constantly in our family 01:55 yeah, so, it was a hard upbringing. 01:58 Yeah, yeah, and were you a Christian as a child or... 02:03 I was a Catholic, we were Catholics 02:05 but my mom was raised in a Convent 02:07 for a very small portion of time after her father passed away 02:12 so we weren't just "Catholics" 02:14 we were Catholics, we didn't just go to church, 02:17 we were really Catholics and so... 02:19 but that's a whole 'nother story how the Lord led me... 02:23 led us, after my mom got cancer, 02:25 she was supposed to die within six months 02:27 when she found out, she lived seven years after that 02:30 and we came into the Adventist message, 02:33 and it was just by moving next door to a neighbor, 02:36 so that's a whole 'nother story on that. 02:38 Praise the Lord. Yeah, so, thank God. 02:40 Yes, yes, what about you, Rod? 02:42 I also was raised in Southern California, 02:45 and the struggles we had were not quite the same 02:50 by 12 or 13, I had a broken home, 02:55 there was a lot of fighting, arguing, 02:59 my parents split up and so there was increasing tension 03:03 especially into my teen years, 03:05 and at age 17, I went away to my Uncle's in Walla Walla, 03:10 spent the summer there, he had a farm, 03:12 and I'd spend time with him, 03:14 and that's really where I began to have spiritual awakening. 03:19 My cousin had a big influence on my life, 03:22 and it helped me get connected with God, 03:26 so not as traumatic as my wife, 03:30 but still there was stress and dysfunction in the family. 03:34 Hmmm... now how did you two meet? 03:37 We met in high school at the academy 03:39 when I was blessed to be able to go through the System, 03:42 School System, and we met, 03:45 we were high school sweethearts and so we were actually... 03:49 once we got married, we were married for ten years 03:51 before we even had our first child, 03:53 we didn't want any kids that was... 03:55 we both agreed on that coming from the brokenness... 03:58 that we said, "We don't want any kids" 04:01 and we were still supporting some of our own family members, 04:03 so... but the Lord had other plans 04:07 so ten years later, 04:08 we had our first and only child, Brianna. 04:11 Tell us about Brianna. 04:12 Boy! there's so much to tell, we raised her in the country, 04:18 we had really sought the Lord to direct us in raising her 04:23 because, as I said, we came from brokenness, 04:26 and so, for us, it was the country, 04:29 we wanted to have her just be able to... 04:31 just to be in the mountain areas, 04:33 and also, I homeschooled her, 04:35 but that really put a stress on us financially 04:39 because my husband and I prayed about it 04:41 and he said, "You know what, if that's the case, 04:44 I want you to stay home, home school her and raise her" 04:47 and so, that was... we went into it with that. 04:50 So you made a huge sacrifice to just have one income 04:54 to raise your daughter. Hmmm... hmmm... correct. 04:57 And for most of her growing years, 04:59 it was one income so we had the financial stress 05:03 that we were continually dealing with. 05:06 What was she like, what's Brianna like? 05:09 Well, she's a lot like her mother 05:11 strong willed, 05:14 determined, she's a naturally-born leader 05:18 when she set her mind to do something, she would do it 05:21 but growing up 05:24 as my wife alluded to, 05:26 we come from broken homes, all of us, 05:29 and Brianna, I think through the bloodline 05:34 and through other relatives, 05:36 she experienced feelings of rejection and abandonment. 05:41 Rejection and abandonment from you or from school or...? 05:46 No, from relatives. Okay. 05:48 Because you get them together with cousins and families 05:54 and grandparents, 05:56 she was real close to her grandfather though 05:58 which was a good thing, but he passed away in 2009, 06:02 and so another dose of, 06:05 "Why has this happened in my life?" 06:07 So she struggled with these things growing up, 06:10 she was also a loner, 06:12 because she had excelled so early on, 06:16 she loved to read books, 06:17 that her age group could not really relate to her 06:21 and so she related a lot better 06:24 with people two and three times her age. 06:26 Now she was homeschooled, you said, 06:29 did she have friends at church or...? 06:31 Oh yes, she was very involved in church, 06:33 she ran the cameras at our church 06:36 and so she got into Media, 06:38 she was actually the youngest that they allowed 06:41 behind the camera, she was just 12 when she started 06:45 and so they saw though that she was very mature, 06:48 like my husband said, so they went ahead 06:50 and allowed her to get started on it 06:52 and that's what started her love about Media, 06:54 and editing and all of that, so she really enjoyed that. 06:58 Oh, so she had a love for Media and editing. 07:02 Oh yeah, yeah, yes, yes and we didn't subject her to 07:07 a lot of the devices that the kids are now using, 07:11 and actually just recently, 07:13 she had told us how thankful she was for that, 07:16 because she said, "I can actually think 07:18 when I'm reading and my mind isn't going all over 07:21 because she's been so un-inundated by electronics, 07:25 so, even though she was good at them, 07:27 that wasn't her... you know, so... 07:30 We have some pictures because we're talking about her 07:32 and I'd like to put some pictures up of her 07:35 so that our audience can see what she looked like. 07:38 This is Briana with her dog, Yuki, 07:44 she named her Yuki because 07:46 Brianna was learning the Japanese language 07:49 and so, it's "snow" in Japanese 07:52 she rescued her from Tennessee, 07:54 so this was a picture she took with her. 07:57 Awww... This is her Senior picture 07:59 her graduating Senior picture from high school, 08:03 yeah. This picture is 08:08 when she went on her first mission trip to Panama 08:10 Ah... and that's where the desire 08:14 to be more involved... become involved in missions 08:17 really took hold, 08:19 from here she went on another mission trip, 08:23 this is when she went to Japan just two years ago, 08:28 and there was a whole story behind that 08:30 she took that picture, remember she was a photographer. 08:33 Oh, so see, I didn't know that. 08:35 So she took over a thousand pictures 08:37 including this one in Japan. Beautiful. 08:41 And this one, she actually got First Place 08:44 from a Photography Company, 08:47 they gave her First Place for that picture, 08:50 the jellyfish, yes, so... 08:52 This is the picture that 08:56 has become precious to us 08:59 that I think she also took a couple of years ago. 09:03 This was at the actual airport that she worked at, 09:07 she was also getting her mechanics license, 09:09 on top of being a pilot, 09:12 so this was one of her favorite planes because of the color. 09:15 Look at how well rounded she was. 09:21 She just had a lot of interests, she was a scuba diver, 09:23 master scuba diver, a pilot, 09:26 photographer, 09:28 she was working on her AMP at the airport 09:30 and she played the violin. 09:32 My! and how old was she? 09:34 She was nineteen. Nineteen. 09:36 Tell us about 2014, what happened? 09:39 2014 was a very difficult year for us 09:43 for a number of reasons, one, I could not find work 09:47 I was applying for jobs all over and for some reason 09:51 I had interviews, nothing was coming through, 09:53 then finally by the fall time, 09:56 October, my wife and I were watching a 3abn Program 10:00 on missions, and at the end of the Program 10:04 they mentioned about their need for a Bookkeeper, 10:06 and I'm an Accountant by trade, so we got the idea 10:11 and we started praying about that 10:12 and I said, "Why don't we contact some ministries 10:16 and see if I can do some bookkeeping remotely online" 10:19 Hmmm... hmmm... 10:21 so the next day, I put a couple of letters together 10:23 and sent them off to two ministries, 10:25 well the day after that, 10:27 I got a response from one of them right away 10:29 and Pastor Bill wrote me and he called me and he says, 10:33 "This is just what we need, 10:34 we've been looking for a bookkeeper 10:37 somebody who can help get our financial picture... " 10:39 And how long had you been out of work at the time? 10:42 All year, about nine to ten months. 10:44 Oh, a whole year! Wow! 10:46 So when this happened, we thought 10:47 maybe this is what the Lord has been waiting on 10:49 they said, we have a Retreat coming up this weekend, 10:52 we'd love to have you, 10:53 come down and we can make sure that this is the right fit, 10:57 I did and it was a tremendous fit so they put me on a salary 11:01 so I was beginning to receive at least a compensation 11:04 that helped, wasn't fully, but at least the rent was paid. 11:09 Excuse me one second, so in the meantime, 11:12 because for years, you had worked 11:15 and you, Mary, had stayed home with Brianna, 11:19 so at this point, neither of you was working 11:22 or were you working, Mary? 11:24 Actually, we had a little savings, 11:27 we used that up and I began to work 11:30 just like barely part time, 11:32 that's all I could find in our area 11:34 and my husband couldn't find anything. 11:37 So, it was really hard, very difficult. 11:40 Yes, very stressful. Oh, yeah. 11:41 At the same time, 11:43 that I joined up with the Ministry, 11:46 Brianna had started working at a Department Store, 11:49 she knew the financial difficulties 11:51 we were going through and she thought 11:53 she wanted to finish up the next rating in her aviation, 11:59 commercially, and she thought, 12:00 "If I have to get a job and contribute that way, I'll do it" 12:03 and so she applied and she got the position, 12:05 and excelled very quickly in Kohls, 12:09 and that's another story too, 12:11 but this happened at the same time 12:14 that I started working, 12:15 so we began to see a game plan, here, formulate. 12:18 Then, a little over a month later, 12:24 oh, God gave us a blessing, 12:26 additional blessing, I'll let my wife share with you. 12:29 It was really difficult, of course, 12:31 as he said, during that time, 12:33 some people have savings and they think, 12:35 just having to tap into their savings... that's difficult, 12:38 we didn't have a safety net at all, 12:42 so, I had a friend that I was... 12:45 the Lord just really put it on my heart that I was to help him 12:50 and I'm thinking, 12:51 "You must be telling the wrong person, 12:53 because, there's no money to help him," 12:56 you know, the money I had, I had just made, 12:58 was going to be to get propane 13:00 and I'm thinking, "there is just no way" 13:03 and the Holy Spirit would not let me go, 13:06 He kept on... so I wrote him a check 13:08 I told my husband when I got home and he was like... 13:12 "Well if that was the Lord... we need to be obedient" 13:15 so he moved away, our friend moved away, 13:19 and several months later, 13:22 after my husband got this little stipend he was getting 13:25 and Brianna starts working on top of working at the airport, 13:29 he calls me up one morning, and this morning I was just... 13:32 I told the Lord, "I cannot take it anymore, 13:35 either we're doing something wrong... " 13:37 I was in that mindset of Job's friends, 13:40 I'm doing something wrong, and I thought, 13:42 "I just don't know what to do, I cannot do this anymore" 13:45 that morning, he calls me, and he says, "Mary" 13:48 and I said, "Yes, how are you doing, 13:50 we've been praying for you" 13:51 and so he says, "You know what?" 13:53 he says, "Remember when you helped me months ago" 13:55 I said, "Yeah" he says, "Well" 13:56 because he's a veteran, "I got some back pay," 13:59 so he says, "I want to give you ten times what you gave me," 14:03 and I was already in tears, I was crying and I was like... 14:07 I was just pleading to the Lord that morning, 14:10 and so I said, "Are you serious?" 14:13 And he said, "Yes" so I told him what happened, 14:16 I was just praying, and he says, 14:18 "So how's Brianna?" and I said, 14:19 "Well, she's a little down, she's got a job 14:22 we're thankful for that we prayed to the Lord, 14:24 the Lord got her a job but 14:26 she can't finish her commercial license 14:28 because we can't really help her right now" 14:30 he says, "How much does she need?" 14:32 so I told him, he says, "You know what, 14:34 I'm in the car right now, talking to you on my Bluetooth 14:37 I'm heading to the Bank, 14:38 I'll put that money in her account this morning" 14:41 and I said, "What?" and he said, 14:42 "I want to provide for her, I want to sponsor somebody 14:46 who's in the Lord's work" 14:47 because Brianna wanted to become a missionary pilot 14:50 so, I was just ecstatic, 14:54 so my husband was away that weekend, 14:56 Brianna comes home from work, 14:57 and I wanted to tell her on the phone but I didn't, 15:00 and I said, "Manuel called, and 15:03 he's coming for the holidays" she was all excited, 15:05 and I said, "Guess what?" she says, "What?" 15:08 I said, "He's going to sponsor you" 15:10 she sat there and she said, "He'd do that for me?" 15:13 I said, "He's going to do it for you" 15:15 and so she got up from 15:17 the table and she ran into the room, 15:19 waited a couple of minutes, she comes back, 15:21 I said, "Where did you go?" 15:22 she said, "I had to call two friends" 15:24 and she says, "One of them said, 15:26 'why don't those kinds of things happen to me?'" 15:29 and she said, "You know what? 15:30 If you're doing what the Lord wants you to do, 15:33 He'll provide" Hmmm... 15:35 So, she couldn't believe it, 15:38 she was like, "Mom, do you know what this means?" 15:39 and I said, "Yeah, it's exciting" 15:42 and she was, and I said, 15:44 "You know Brianna, the Lord has a plan for you, 15:47 He loves you that much, 15:48 that's why He's providing for you" 15:50 and so, it was just, it was just that week, she was... 15:55 this was Monday, she was just on-track 15:57 it was like the Lord said, 15:59 "Now I'm sealing what I want you to do for me" 16:02 so for her, it was like, 16:03 "Okay, I'm doing what I'm supposed to be doing" 16:05 Yeah, yeah. 16:07 Friday morning comes, like any other morning, 16:09 it had that rained that morning it was cloudy, 16:12 she was getting ready for work, 16:14 Mary made breakfast for her 16:16 and saw her out to the car, 16:18 and that's all... she regularly would tell her, 16:23 "Brianna, be careful on your way to work the roads are wet," 16:27 Brianna looked at her and said, "Mom, don't you trust me?" 16:31 and Mary looked back and said, "Oh, I trust you, 16:35 it's those other drivers out there 16:37 who are reckless, I'm fearful of" 16:39 and then she said something that was prophetic, 16:42 she said, "Mom, you got to let me go" 16:47 we didn't realize it, we would... 16:50 those were the last words we'd ever heard from her. 16:52 She was to work to twelve, but she got off an hour earlier, 16:58 typically when she'd work, she would send a text to mom, 17:01 she didn't for some reason that morning. 17:04 So she made it safely to work? Hmmm... hmmm... 17:07 She worked and then she got off early, 17:08 then at 1:30, 17:11 Mary was getting kind of concerned 17:13 because she knew she was supposed to be off work, 17:15 and she hadn't gotten a call, 17:17 at 1:30 she got a call from the hospital, 17:20 the one call that parents fear, and as a result, they said, 17:29 "Ms. Cassidy, is there somewhere you can talk?" 17:31 she went into the next room, she said, 17:34 they said... the Social Worker said, 17:36 "Your daughter was in a major car accident," 17:39 of course, Mary said, "Is she okay?" 17:41 and then those fateful words, 17:44 that should never be said on the phone, 17:46 "She didn't make it" 17:48 my wife just... it's just like a ton of bricks falling on her, 17:54 she said, "It's got to be a mistake, 17:56 you need to call my husband and talk to him" 17:57 she called me, she gave me the number 17:59 to call the hospital, 18:00 I spoke to the Social Worker and then the Highway Patrol 18:03 and told us what happened, I got off the phone, 18:07 she was coming home to get me, 18:08 and I'm just shaking, How can this be... " 18:10 You just saw her that morning, you just saw her. 18:13 Rod: She was here and now she was gone... Mary: Six hours. 18:16 When she got home, I had to call somebody 18:18 to have prayer with and I called Pastor Bill, 18:20 the first thing out of his mouth he said, 18:22 "The Lord giveth, the Lord taketh away, 18:24 blessed be the name of the Lord" 18:26 Although that didn't seem that comforting then, 18:29 he had a great prayer with me, 18:30 he prayed two more times that weekend, 18:32 we got in the car, went down to the hospital, 18:35 and the Physician came in and spent some time talking to us 18:39 the Highway Patrol saying, 18:41 they did everything they could to save her. 18:44 Then we were taken into the room where she was, 18:46 and we had called a number of family members and friends 18:50 and one family, in particular, came to the hospital, 18:54 and he told me, 18:55 while we were just crying our hearts out, 18:58 he said, "We lost our daughter seven months ago, 19:02 to the day, she was twenty, DUl hit her," 19:07 and so immediately we had a bond with this family 19:11 in the church, and we got home that night, 19:17 almost midnight, we never walked into the house 19:20 when it was so cold, so dark, 19:23 her two little animals, 19:24 cat and dog, Brianna's met us... the one on the picture, 19:27 and they knew something was wrong, 19:29 we went into her bedroom and just cried, 19:32 what do you do, 19:33 Mary wanted to be as close to her as she possibly could, 19:36 finally... through sheer exhaustion 19:40 must have been 1:30 or 2 o'clock I fell asleep, 19:42 it's tiring, it's exhausting for me, 19:45 I fell asleep, maybe an hour or two went by 19:48 we woke up with this overwhelming grief, 19:51 and it just grabbed me and I thought, 19:54 "I'm going to go insane, this is only the first night, 19:56 how do you survive this?" 19:57 and the Holy Spirit immediately gave me seven words, 20:01 John 11:25, "I am the resurrection and the life, 20:05 I am the resurrection and life" I just kept repeating it, 20:08 until that peace came that night. 20:12 For two days, we were torn, especially Mary, 20:16 nobody was with our daughter, 20:18 finally, Sunday night, 20:19 a lady reaches out to us on Facebook, 20:23 she had been trying to reach us for two days, 20:25 and we called her, 20:27 and I'll let Mary tell you about that. 20:30 She was on with us, Kimberly, 20:32 she was on with us for about... almost an hour, 20:35 and she said... actually, that she was with Brianna, 20:39 that she had seen the entire accident, 20:44 that he actually, 20:46 and prior to seeing the accident, 20:49 she grew up in that area, she had been to Costco 20:52 and had been through three lines, 20:54 she said, "That never happened to me" 20:56 Rod: Three lanes Mary: she'd go to one, 20:57 okay, you have to go to the next one, 20:59 she's like, "What's going on?" 21:00 but we know now, the Lord was delaying her 21:04 to be at the scene of the accident 21:07 the minute it happened 21:08 and she saw how it all took place, 21:09 this guy was, for four minutes, driving recklessly, 21:12 he almost hit them, he almost hit another vehicle, 21:15 then he veered off the road, eastbound lanes, 21:18 two lanes this way and two lanes westbound, 21:21 he flew off the highway, lost control of the vehicle 21:24 and there was a five foot berm, he flew over that, 21:26 and Brianna was coming around the corner, 21:29 and she didn't have a chance, she didn't see him, 21:31 and he flew right into her car, 21:33 both vehicles... 21:34 the force of the impact put them perpendicular 21:36 on the side of the road, they saw it all 21:39 Kimberly and her husband, and they rushed out, 21:41 quickly went over to where she was 21:43 they couldn't get in on the driver's side 21:46 so they went to the passenger side, 21:47 he had to kick out the window, it was cracked, 21:50 and she went, and she couldn't open the door 21:52 so she went in and while she was in the car, 21:55 leaning over through the door, 21:57 she was a Christian, and had just come back to church 22:01 she was a mother of five, and a Trauma Nurse, 22:04 now what's the chance of that happening? 22:07 Come on now... 22:08 While she's in the car, she hears a voice, 22:11 she's taking her vitals, 22:13 which was dropping minute by minute 22:15 she hears a voice, she hears a lot of commotion 22:17 people were stopping along the side, 22:18 to pray and come over 22:20 she thought somebody had gotten on the back seat, 22:21 she hears a voice, it said, 22:23 "Kimberly, calm down, call my daughter by her name" 22:27 she realized it was the voice of the Holy Spirit, 22:31 and there was an envelope of peace in the car, 22:35 the rest of the time she was in there, 22:37 she finds a wallet, she didn't know what to call her 22:40 because she... Brianna would go by "Brianna" but 22:44 many people call her "Brianna" so she just called her "Brie" 22:47 which was her nickname, and she sang to her, 22:50 but then the time came, shortly thereafter, 22:53 she knew the signs of the end of life, 22:55 Brianna took a breath and it was over, 22:58 so she believed, she didn't make it out. 23:00 And she did confirmed with us that Brianna didn't suffer 23:03 because apparently when the car hit her, 23:06 it knocked her unconscious, so Brianna didn't suffer, 23:10 thank God for that. Praise God. 23:12 Yes, yes... 23:13 The next day her brother came up 23:15 from the ministry he had just been involved in, 23:17 to minister to us, and he said two things 23:21 that I'll never forget, he said, 23:24 "Satan's kingdom needs to be damaged 23:27 for what he has done to your daughter 23:29 you need to put this on video, 23:34 the Memorial Service and put it on YouTube 23:38 for the world to see," Hmmm... hmmm... 23:40 and he also said this, 23:41 he said, "There are two lights in the world, 23:46 some... they burn slow and long, 23:48 and others... they burn fast and bright, 23:50 your daughter was one of those... the latter" 23:54 Hmmm... and from that time on 23:57 we started thinking about maybe doing a website 23:59 to tell our story to the world, and we have done that 24:03 we also have a 30-second video clip 24:06 that we did, maybe we can show that now, 24:09 Yeah, let's show it and then we'll put the website up as well 24:11 let's show that clip right now. 24:13 Hi, my name is Brianna, every time I fly an airplane, 24:18 I experience freedom, 24:19 the stress of the week, melts away 24:21 because I'm in a heavenly burden-free environment, 24:25 I want to be able to share a better type of freedom 24:28 with people from different walks of life, 24:30 freedom and peace 24:32 that comes from leaving the shackles of sin behind 24:34 that feeling that can only be achieved 24:37 by being forgiven and set free in Jesus Christ. 24:41 Thank you so much 24:42 for taking the time to consider me. 24:44 She did this video clip two weeks before her... 24:49 that tragic day 24:50 she was doing it for Quiet Hour Ministries 24:54 as a sponsorship for another Mission Trip 24:57 and later we ran across the gentleman at ASI 25:01 and he... one of his assistants 25:04 put us in touch with him and he said, "Oh... " 25:06 he's also a pilot and he said, "She would have won that, 25:09 Mission Trip sponsorship. " Wow... 25:12 There are so many comments that I can make 25:16 but one of them is that, what you've gone through 25:19 is what every... 25:20 every parent that's watching this right now 25:23 can identify to an extent with the idea of loss, 25:31 of losing your child, it is unthinkable, 25:34 and to know, though, that there is a resurrection 25:40 and that Jesus Christ said, 25:42 "I am the resurrection and the life" 25:44 we don't have to worry about this being, "good-bye" 25:48 this is just a temporary... temporary absence, 25:53 we're going to put her website up as well 25:55 so that people can go to the website: briannacassidy. com 25:57 see the story, what... 26:00 what did you do... to deal... 26:05 and we only have like a couple of minutes left, 26:07 what did you do to deal with the suffering 26:10 that you went through over this period of time? 26:13 For us it's been a... 26:15 just reaching out to other people in our grief 26:19 that's been a big blessing for us... 26:22 to be honest... to keep busy, 26:23 because Brianna was our only child 26:25 so, setting up our Foundation that we've set up for her 26:29 and that was a miracle because we got our 501c3 Rating 26:33 in a week and a half, and we were like... "Miracle!" 26:37 That's unheard of, isn't it? 26:39 Yeah, and that's what we've been told by many, yup. 26:41 We have put our energies 26:43 toward the website and the Foundation 26:45 because it's been... for us... therapeutic, 26:49 and as a result, we have found some healing, 26:52 we are presently sponsoring two pilots in South America, 26:57 we also have three Media Ministries 27:00 in all of these, Brianna was, in some way, 27:03 either involved in or she had some influence with 27:07 we're helping in sponsoring UnScene Media... 27:10 Yvonne: Oh yes, Ryan St. Hillaire. 27:12 Little Lights Studios out in California, 27:15 and just recently, we're helping a Program 27:18 that will be aired on Brenda Walsh's Kids' Network 27:21 called "Kids in Mission" that should be filmed next year 27:25 and so through this we are promoting 27:28 what our daughter wanted to do, 27:30 helping get the gospel out there 27:32 while we still have time 27:34 and we know God has a plan to reach more souls through it. 27:38 Yes, he does and God has allowed you to take this tragedy 27:43 and turn it into triumph. Absolutely. 27:47 And Brianna's memory will be memorialized 27:50 through your efforts so we praise the Lord for that. 27:54 Thank you so much for being with us. 27:55 Thank you. Thank you so much 27:57 and thank you for joining us, 27:58 we've reached the end of another Program, 28:01 can't believe the time flew by so quickly, 28:03 join us next time because you know what? 28:05 It just wouldn't be the same, without you. |
