08:41 I said, "Wow." 08:45 That was a wonderful time that we've had 08:48 and you've been back many times and you've also sang 08:52 on both the Danny Shelton's CD projects 08:54 and what was that like? 08:56 Because you not only have the benefit, 08:58 most kids that come to Kids' Time by the way 09:00 don't have this opportunity 09:01 where they sing both on television 09:03 and in a recording studio. 09:05 I thought that was an amazing experience. 09:07 It was so good working with all the other kids. 09:09 It was truly a blessing for me and it was a great opportunity 09:12 to experience the whole recording process in such. 09:15 That's true. 09:16 Tell me what... 09:19 how has Kids' Time affected your life? 09:21 What is being on this program done for you 09:24 and has it opened any doors for you, 09:25 any witnessing experiences? 09:27 Yes, definitely. 09:28 I would say Kids' Time has definitely humbled me 09:30 and caused me to realize how greater responsibility is 09:33 to be a minister. 09:35 And it just opened my eyes to... 09:37 how many actually watch it 09:39 and how I have to stay consistent 09:41 and stay and minister that 09:43 and keep the gifts that God has given me 09:45 and keep giving them to Him and not given to the world. 09:48 Amen. Amen. 09:49 Well, thank you so much, Samara. 09:51 Can you tell us how old you are? 09:52 I'm 17. 09:53 And what are you doing now 09:55 and what do you want to be doing? 09:57 Right now I'm a senior in high school 09:59 and I'm getting ready to graduate in May. 10:02 And what I want to do 10:04 when I finish high school my plans are to go on 10:06 to college at Oakwood University 10:08 which is in Huntsville, Alabama. 10:10 That's wonderful. 10:11 Well, I know that God is gonna continue to bless you 10:14 in all that you do for Him. 10:15 And what song are you going to sing for us today? 10:18 "Hark! The Herald Angels Sing." 10:19 Thank you very much. God bless you. 10:30 Hark the herald angels sing 10:35 "Glory to the newborn King! 10:39 Peace on earth and mercy mild 10:44 God and sinners reconciled" 10:48 Joyful, all ye nations rise 10:52 Join the triumph of the skies 10:56 With the angelic host proclaim 11:00 "Christ is born in Bethlehem" 11:05 Hark!

Thank you, Samara. 12:12 Well, I first met Yumi 12:13 when I spoke at her home church in Texas 12:15 when she was just 11-years-old. 12:18 And before church began 12:19 she had shared about her dream to sing on Kids' Time. 12:22 Well, she was completely shocked 12:25 when I got up to speak that day 12:27 and invited her to come up and sing for special music. 12:31 Without hesitation that little girl 12:32 just came right up to the platform 12:34 and sing her little heart out. 12:36 I don't think there was a dry eye in the place 12:38 and when she finished in front... 12:40 singing in front of all those people 12:42 I invited her to sing on Kids' Time. 12:45 When she came to the studio 12:46 she asked if I would sing a couple of songs with her 12:48 and that's something that I never do. 12:52 But I had put her on the spot as a minuteman for Jesus 12:54 so I felt it only fair that I obliged. 12:57 Let's watch a video of Yumi and me 12:59 in 2009 singing "Family of God." 13:04 From rags unto riches, from the weak to the strong 13:10 I'm not worthy to be here, But praise God I belong! 13:16 I'm so glad I'm a part Of the Family of God 13:21 I've been washed In the fountain, 13:25 Cleansed by His Blood! 13:28 Joint heirs with Jesus As we travel this sod 13:34 For I'm part of the family The Family of God 13:40 That was a lot of fun. 13:42 But Yumi couldn't be here with us today 13:44 but she sent a video clip this week 13:46 that we will watch right now. 13:49 Hi, Miss. Brenda. 13:51 My name is Yumi Castor, 13:52 I'm 18...years-old and I live here in Texas. 13:56 I had the chance to record with Kids' Time 13:58 when I was about 12-years-old and I remember being so excited 14:01 because I had grown up watching Kids' Time as a little kid. 14:05 And I remember being on the set for the first time. 14:08 I was so excited because I got to see over the films 14:10 all of the Kids' Time segments, 14:12 especially Story Time because that was my favorite. 14:15 I remember being so nervous prior to recording 14:18 that we went to the house on the set 14:20 and we had prayed there 14:22 and that really helped to ease my nerves. 14:25 As of now Kids' Time has been 14:27 a huge part of my music ministry. 14:29 It's opened doors for me to sing in different churches, 14:32 evangelistic crusades 14:34 and recently at the General Conference 14:36 here in San Antonio. 14:39 Well, our next singer is Jeharna 14:40 who came all the way from England 14:42 to sing on Kids' Time when she was 14-years-old. 14:45 I'll never for get the look of "Wow" on Dr. Calvin's face 14:49 when she began to sing. 14:51 And once you hear her, you will understand why. 14:54 Let's listen to a clip from that special day in 2009 14:57 as she sings "Blessed Assurance." 15:02 Washed in His blood 15:07 This is my story 15:12 This is my song 15:17 Praising my Savior 15:22 All the day long 15:27 This is my story 15:32 This is my song 15:36 Praising my Savior 15:42 All the day long 15:47 Perfect submission 15:51 Well, I'm very excited to tell you 15:53 that Jeharna is here today with us right now 15:56 and she is going to sing "O Holy Night." 16:09 O holy night! 16:12 The stars are brightly shining 16:17 It is the night 16:20 Of our dear Savior's birth! 16:26 Long lay the world 16:29 In sin and error pining 16:34 Till He appear'd 16:37 And the soul felt its worth 16:42 A thrill of hope 16:46 The weary world rejoices 16:49 For yonder breaks 16:53 A new and glorious morn! 16:56 Fall on your knees 17:03 Oh hear the angel voices 17:09 Oh night divine 17:15 Oh night 17:18 When Christ was born 17:22 Oh night 17:26 Divine 17:30 Oh night 17:35 Oh night divine 17:43 Oh night 17:45 Divine 17:55 Amen. 17:58 Amen and amen. Thank you, Jeharna. 18:00 I tell you, I just love this girl so much. 18:04 She really truly uses her talent for Jesus. 18:07 And tell me, what was that like when, 18:09 when you first came to Kids' Time? 18:12 Well, when I first came to Kids' Time it was such, 18:14 it was such a prayer answered and such a dream come true 18:18 because for years I've been watching Kids' Time 18:21 and it was just a great opportunity 18:23 to actually get to be here and to experience in person. 18:29 And tell me did you have any, since, since you were here 18:32 and since people started singing, 18:33 because we've been singing now for quite a while. 18:37 Can you tell me have you had any good witnessing experiences 18:40 or have people seen you and recognized you? 18:42 Has it opened any doors for you? 18:44 Yeah, well, I mean, people all over the world watch 3ABN. 18:48 So when I'm at home in England or when I'm here in churches 18:53 or even at the recent General Conference session 18:56 many people would, you know, approach me and say, 18:58 "Oh, hey, was that you on 3ABN?" 19:00 And they would just say 19:01 how much they really appreciate to the ministry, 19:03 not just of me but of all the children 19:05 that sing on Kids' Time. 19:06 And you actually sang at General Conference right? 19:08 I did. I was able to sing at General Conference. 19:11 Yes. Session. 19:12 And let me ask you this question, 19:15 what... Do you mind telling us how old you are? 19:17 I'm 21. Okay. 19:19 And what are you doing now and what you hope to be doing? 19:21 Okay. 19:23 Well, currently I'm a psychology major 19:25 at Oakwood University in Huntsville, Alabama. 19:28 I sing there with a choir called the Aeolians 19:30 which I enjoy so much. 19:32 And after I graduate from Oakwood University, 19:35 I'm hoping to do a dual doctoral degree 19:38 which will give me a PhD in psychology 19:40 and a law degree also. 19:43 Praise the Lord. 19:44 Now I happen to know that your mom and dad... I met your mom. 19:47 I love your mom 19:48 but I haven't had the privilege of meeting your dad. 19:50 But I know that your mom and dad 19:52 and her entire church 19:55 have a big whole screen in front of their church 19:57 and they are all gathered right now at this moment 19:59 and I want you to say something to them. 20:01 Hi, everybody, I love you all and I miss you so much. 20:04 And thank you so much for watching 20:06 and for your continued support of my ministry. 20:09 And I just want to say that Miss.

Praise the Lord. 20:55 "Mary Did You Know." 21:12 Mary, did you know That your Baby Boy 21:18 Would one day walk on water? 21:22 Mary, did you know That your Baby Boy 21:27 Would save our sons and daughters? 21:32 Did you know that your Baby Boy 21:37 Has come to make you new? 21:41 And this Child That you delivered 21:46 He will soon deliver you 21:50 Mary, did you know 21:54 And, Mary, did you know That your Baby Boy 21:59 Is Lord of all creation? 22:03 And, Mary, did you know That your Baby Boy 22:08 Would one day rule the nations? 22:12 Did you know That your Baby Boy 22:17 Is heaven's perfect Lamb? 22:21 And the sleeping Child You're holding 22:25 He is the Great 22:29 I Am 22:37 Mary, did you know 22:47 Mary, did you know 23:03 Amen. Thank you, Jeharna 23:06 Well, Alessandra was only 10-years-old 23:08 when she first came to us all the way from California. 23:12 She sings in both English and Spanish 23:14 but what some may remember most 23:17 is the beautiful expression she has 23:19 when reciting a scripture text right before she sings. 23:23 Here's Alessandra in 2009 23:25 singing "God of Great and God of Small." 23:30 David definitely said God, 23:32 "I will declare Your name to My brethren, 23:34 and in the midst of the congregation 23:36 I will praise You." 23:38 That's found in Psalms 22:22. 23:49 God of great and God of small 23:53 God of one and God of all 23:56 God of weak and God of strong 24:00 God to whom all things belong 24:03 Hallelujah, hallelujah Praise be thy name 24:16 Well, Alessandra couldn't be with us today 24:19 but she sent this video for me to share. 24:23 Hello, everyone. I'm Alessandra Sorace. 24:26 When I was really little, I grew up watching Kids' Time. 24:29 So naturally I wanted to sing on 3ABN. 24:32 When I was 10 that wish became a reality 24:35 when I came to sing 24:36 for the first of many pleasant recording sessions 24:38 at Kids' Time, 24:39 Kids' Time Praise and 3ABN functions. 24:42 I loved it because I got to give messages 24:44 of hope, faith and God's love to people and many kids my age. 24:50 I've always felt 24:51 a special connection with my audience 24:53 even if they are on the other side 24:54 of the camera lens like you are. 24:56 Several years later I'm still doing what I love. 24:59 When I was 14, I got my first CD 25:01 "Oh Love That Will Not Let Me Go." 25:03 At 15, my second CD which is in Spanish 25:06 and this year now that I'm 16 my third CD 25:09 which is in Portuguese. 25:10 Over the past two years 25:12 I've been on tour all around the country 25:13 giving concerts and sharing to many people 25:16 about God's love that will never let us go. 25:19 You can find out more by going to my website 25:21 AlessandraSorace.com or my Facebook page. 25:24 I will always cherish the memories 25:26 I made at Kids' Time 25:27 and will continue to be inspired 25:29 to keep sharing Jesus through music. 25:33 Well, Eliann is a girl that one might say, can do it all. 25:37 She sings, she plays violin and she acts 25:41 and amazing has done all three right here on Kids' Time. 25:45 One of her most notable Bible stories 25:47 is her gifted performance as Mary, mother of Jesus. 25:51 She was 14-years-old 25:53 when she came to Kids' Time in 2008 25:55 and one of my favorite songs she sings 25:58 is "How Great Thou Art." 26:00 Let's listen as she sings that song for us right now. 26:05 Then sings my soul 26:08 My Savior, God, to Thee 26:14 How great thou Art 26:18 How great thou Art 26:22 Then sings my soul 26:26 My Savior, God, to Thee 26:31 How great thou Art 26:35 How great thou Art 26:44 Well, Eliann is here with us today 26:47 and will sing for us right now, "Angels We Have Heard on High." 27:05 Angels we have heard on high 27:08 Sweetly singing o'er the plains 27:12 And the mountains in reply 27:16 Echoing their joyous strains 27:20 Gloria 27:27 In excelsis Deo! 27:30 Gloria 27:37 In excelsis Deo! 27:57 Gloria 28:04 In excelsis Deo! 28:08 Gloria 28:15 In excelsis Deo! 28:22 Come to Bethlehem and see 28:25 Him Whose birth the angels sing 28:28 Come, adore on bended knee 28:32 Christ the Lord, The newborn King 28:36 Gloria 28:43 In excelsis Deo! 28:46 Gloria 28:53 In excelsis Deo! 29:06 Amen. 29:08 Amen and amen. 29:10 Thank you so much for being here. 29:12 I tell you what, I love each and every one of these kids 29:15 and this one has been so special. 29:16 We spent so much time together here. 29:18 Oh, yeah. 29:20 And I'm sure you had a little smile 29:21 when we played the clip when you first came. 29:23 But you had... 29:25 could I even actually in the spot and say 29:27 you sang on Kids' Time, you acted on Kids' Time. 29:30 I mean, what is your favorite thing to do? 29:33 My goodness. Miss Brenda, that is terrible. 29:36 Did you know? I love it all. 29:38 You know, everything 29:40 and everything I love for a different reason. 29:42 For singing its musical, you know, I love singing. 29:45 I'm actually pursuing a violin degree right now 29:48 at Peabody Conservatory 29:49 I do as well with cognitive science 29:52 at Johns Hopkins University. 29:53 So music means so much to me 29:55 and I've seen how it can be used 29:57 as such a powerful, powerful tool to evangelize. 30:01 I was running an evangelistic series 30:04 where I was doing some preaching 30:06 and some singing as well 30:07 in Texas a while back. 30:09 There was one lady that walked through that back door in Texas 30:13 and she sat in the front row during the first meeting. 30:15 I sang, "His Eye Is on the Sparrow" 30:18 and I did not know anything about her background, 30:21 did not know who she was 30:22 but she kept on coming every single night. 30:25 Turns out she was not Adventist, 30:29 was not Christian 30:30 but she kept coming just because of the music. 30:32 Amen. 30:33 So eventually she was baptized 30:36 and now she is a beautiful member of the church. 30:39 Praise the Lord. 30:40 So God can use music in a powerful way. 30:41 That's exactly right. 30:43 And I know in the Bible stories I have looked, 30:45 you know, we had been wanting to do the Bible... 30:48 Jesus nativity scene and that Jesus birth story 30:52 and finding the right person to play Mary 30:55 was really difficult. 30:56 So I can tell you were prayed over when I made that choice. 30:59 And what was that like being on our Bible stories? 31:02 Amen. My goodness. 31:04 So I had the awesome, awesome honor of being, 31:09 acting the role of Mary the mother of Jesus 31:11 when I was only 16. 31:13 And this was quite, quite an enormous thing for me 31:18 because it broadened my view of the whole Christmas story. 31:22 It took on a whole new meaning for me. 31:24 Everything that Mary went through, the shame, 31:27 the guilt of being pregnant, how is this possible? 31:32 So I sort of on a small level lived through 31:37 that whole experience that she had up to the birth of Jesus. 31:40 And it's an incredible tale, you know, 31:42 and of course, all the behind the scenes I can talk about. 31:45 As Miss. Brenda knows we have a blast. 31:48 You know, not only is it beautiful spiritually 31:50 but also just for kids.

39:59 It was very movie like all lights and cameras 40:03 but as I got to know the crew and, you know, 40:06 Maxwell was so friendly I just, I just loved it. 40:10 You really fell in love with Maxwell. 40:12 Maxwell true to form, I mean, sleeping again today, isn't he? 40:15 Yes. 40:17 And I noticed we did a lot of pictures with you and Maxwell. 40:21 Did you love that little dog? 40:22 Tell me what has Kids' Time meant you... 40:25 you've been on for quite a while now. 40:27 You are seen around the world, 40:28 have you met anyone, 40:30 have you had an opportunity to witness for Jesus 40:31 because of Kids' Time?

I still remember. 46:04 It was a long time ago 46:05 but I remember I was so excited. 46:07 It was also for an answer for... 46:08 To prayer for me as well. 46:10 I had been praying and the Lord opened the way 46:14 and I know that it wasn't just a blessing 46:17 for people who have told me. 46:18 It's been a blessing, it was a blessing for me 46:20 and I just remember there are all these lights 46:22 and some times you get tired near the end 46:25 and you are looking into all these lights 46:27 and these black hose that you had to stare into. 46:30 And then, you know, as you are getting tired 46:32 you are getting near the end of the song 46:33 may be its take three, 46:35 you hear three special words coming out of that darkness, 46:39 "It's a keeper." 46:43 For those of you who don't know 46:45 I guess I had to clue you in but ever since I first 46:48 started Kids' Time and I don't really know 46:49 why I chose this, these three words 46:51 but from the very first person that saying 46:54 sometimes when you sing it the first time 46:56 they make a mistake and no problem 46:57 we are not live, we do it over again. 46:59 They make another mistake, its okay. 47:01 And so, you know, 47:03 and we might do it two, or three, four times 47:04 depending on how long they need. 47:06 And until they hear those words 47:09 I would run over the control room 47:11 and I go, "It's a keeper." 47:14 And then everybody is like, yeah, yeah, yeah! 47:16 They are all excited because they know they are done. 47:18 That's it, they don't have to do it anymore. 47:19 And I can't even tell you how many people tell me 47:22 that's their three favorite words, today even. 47:25 So, yeah, sure that you hear that sometimes 47:27 when you finish playing a song and you know it was good. 47:31 Tell me, have you had any great witnessing experiences? 47:35 Have you had any opportunities that Kids' Time allowed you? 47:39 I have, in fact, one of my greatest memories 47:43 of having Kids' Time be a witness tool for me 47:47 is I have some family members who I love dearly 47:50 and they don't know Jesus like I do. 47:52 And that's one of my biggest 47:54 wishes of all heart that they would. 47:56 And I remember one day 47:58 they have small children and they told me 48:00 that they like watching me on Kids' Time. 48:03 And so I know it has opened the door for them to hear 48:08 even the little songs that we used to sing. 48:11 I hope that it has planted a seed 48:14 and I know that the Lord will water it. 48:17 Amen. Amen. 48:18 Can you tell me what are you doing right now? 48:21 What I'm doing right now, 48:22 I just graduated from Fountainview Academy 48:25 this past June and right now I'm kind of in between 48:29 high school and college. 48:31 I'm teaching violin 48:32 which is another amazing witnessing opportunity 48:34 because I've had to share with my coworkers 48:37 that I can't teach on Sabbath. 48:39 And so that's another big witnessing opportunity. 48:42 What I plan to do in the future is, 48:44 I would love to work more on music 48:47 and possibly do music performance 48:49 so I can better my abilities and grow them 48:51 so that I can better spread the gospel for Jesus. 48:55 Do you know Emily doesn't know I'm gonna say this 48:57 and I didn't know till right now 48:59 either but the Holy Spirit is impressing me. 49:01 You know, she is a very talented girl 49:02 and what she hasn't shared with you 49:04 and in between those words that she just said 49:07 is that she is... 49:09 she really is praying to God to open the door for her 49:12 to be able to afford and education. 49:14 And if there's anybody out there 49:15 that believes in Christian education 49:17 and would like to help Emily get her degree in music, 49:22 you know, contact me. 49:24 You can go to my website brendawalsh.com. 49:25 My contact information is there 49:28 and I'll make sure 49:29 that it happens and pray about it 49:31 because I believe in Christian education, 49:34 I believe in supporting our young people 49:38 so that she can keep on shinning for Jesus 49:40 and I know He is going to do great things in your life. 49:44 And I want to thank you for being here. 49:45 I love you. 49:46 And I just want you to say, 49:48 don't you want to say shout out. 49:49 She comes all the way from Canada. 49:51 And say hi, to mom and dad. 49:52 Hi, mom and dad. 49:53 I'm so glad that you are watching this 49:55 and I love you and I can't wait to see you on Sunday. 49:57 Okay, give that. 52:19 Amen. 52:20 Amen.

Thank you. 52:24 Well, its been a real joy to have Adolfo on Kids' Time. 52:28 And in the past 16 years 52:29 that I have been producing this program I can tell you 52:31 that it has always been very challenging 52:34 to find boys to sing. 52:36 So many feel awkward or embarrassed 52:38 to sing for Jesus 52:40 worried about what their friends will think. 52:42 But from the moment I met this precious 52:44 seven-year-old boy he shined for Jesus. 52:48 He is one of the most humble kids I have ever met 52:50 and so very talented in singing in both English and Spanish. 52:54 Let's watch this video roll of him singing in 2005 52:58 "When He Cometh." 53:01 They shall shine in their beauty 53:04 Bright gems for His crown 53:08 Little children, little children 53:11 Who love their Redeemer 53:14 Are the jewels, precious jewels 53:17 His loved and His own 53:20 Like the stars of the morning 53:23 His brightness adorning 53:26 They shall shine in their beauty 53:30 Bright gems for His crown 53:36 And here is Adolfo here in person to sing for us today. 53:40 Amen.

Oh, I wish I had known that. 01:21:48 And I don't think, I think the children grew into it. 01:21:51 They-- you know, it's a challenge to start with. 01:21:54 One of my, one of my favorite memories of course 01:21:59 is it's a keeper because we all got tired. 01:22:02 I have a slightly embarrassing memory. 01:22:04 I remember once we recorded a song 01:22:06 and I got to the last chord of the song 01:22:08 and it was all of the sudden my brain had a switch 01:22:11 and I changed keys for the last chord, 01:22:14 but that's what the miracle of tape is for us. 01:22:16 So we're able to correct that on the spot. 01:22:18 That one wasn't a keeper. That was not a keeper. 01:22:20 But we made a keeper in the end. 01:22:23 Anyway I wanted to pass on to my children 01:22:24 the love for music, a love for service, 01:22:27 willingness to be spent for God, 01:22:31 to serve and to bless others through music. 01:22:35 And it's been such a blessing to do that with our family. 01:22:37 Unfortunately, our oldest daughter Laurel 01:22:39 is not feeling well. 01:22:40 So she is not here with us but she is... 01:22:42 She wanted to be. 01:22:44 But my wife Paddy 01:22:46 has been the powerhouse really of our music. 01:22:48 She gets it organized, she get us there 01:22:51 and help us get everything done. 01:22:52 I'm a physician in Northern California, 01:22:54 I love my kids, I love having had them on Kids' Time 01:22:58 and the ministry that continues. 01:23:02 And my name is Paddy. 01:23:03 And like my husband, music was a part of our family 01:23:07 when I was growing up, 01:23:08 and my father loved George Beverly Shea. 01:23:12 And he used to play that and he said, 01:23:14 you all need to learn to sing like George Beverly Shea, 01:23:16 so my brothers and I, they used to take us 01:23:19 to nursing homes on Sabbath afternoon, 01:23:21 we would sing at evangelistic series, 01:23:23 and we would just go around in the East Tennessee area 01:23:26 where I grew up singing. 01:23:27 So that was a part of my childhood 01:23:29 and so I remember when I was about 16 years old, 01:23:31 one time I was playing the piano 01:23:33 and my mom was playing the flute. 01:23:35 And I just turned around on the piano bench 01:23:37 and I said mom, "Some day I want to marry a musician. 01:23:40 I want to marry someone who just can, 01:23:42 we can do music together as a family." 01:23:44 And the Lord must have just thought, 01:23:45 I've got the jackpot man for you. 01:23:48 And that was my husband... I love how God does that. 01:23:51 God is so good, so as soon as we had our four children, 01:23:54 we could hardly wait until they were big enough 01:23:56 to start singing and playing instruments. 01:23:58 And so this thing, we did the same thing, 01:24:00 took them to nursing home, sometimes played for funerals 01:24:03 and churches and just wherever the need was 01:24:06 because we saw music mean so much ministers to the heart. 01:24:10 And then when Brenda came along 01:24:12 and said, "Would you like to come on Kids' Time?" 01:24:14 We were like, well, that would just be an opportunity 01:24:16 to expand the blessing to people 01:24:18 we'll never have an opportunity to meet. 01:24:21 So I prayed that we will get to meet you viewers in heaven. 01:24:24 Amen.

01:34:54 Well, Wen Ting is currently studying piano performance 01:34:56 at the University of Kansas. 01:34:58 Isabel is getting her degree 01:34:59 in violin performance at the prestigious 01:35:02 Juilliard School of Music in New York City. 01:35:05 I love these girls so much and I'm so very sad 01:35:07 that they could not be with us today. 01:35:09 They are giving a concert this weekend in New York City. 01:35:12 However, they each sent a short video clip for me to share. 01:35:18 Hi everyone, my name is Wen Ting 01:35:19 and I was on Kids' Time about 10 years ago 01:35:21 with my sister Isabel who plays the violin. 01:35:24 3ABN Kids' Time is a family 01:35:26 that I will be able to hold on to forever. 01:35:28 And it's wonderful for young Christian 01:35:31 and young musician to be able to grow. 01:35:35 And I want to thank 3ABN for giving me this opportunity 01:35:38 for music ministry. 01:35:39 Hope to see you all at the future concerts of mine 01:35:42 and happy Sabbath. 01:35:45 Hi everyone, happy Sabbath. 01:35:47 I'm deeply regretful that I'm not able to make 01:35:49 the Reunion today, 01:35:51 but I just wanted to send the hello 01:35:52 and give a heartfelt thanks 01:35:54 to the production crew of Kids' Time, 01:35:57 the wonderful musicians I performed with 01:35:59 that I've toured with, the audience, 01:36:02 and last but not least Miss Brenda. 01:36:05 I deeply appreciated your encouragement, 01:36:08 your support and you have helped me create 01:36:11 some of the most unforgettable experiences in my life. 01:36:15 Currently I'm in New York City, pursuing a master's degree 01:36:18 and violin performance at the Juilliard School, 01:36:20 and hopefully for the next Reunion, 01:36:22 I'll be able to fly from New York 01:36:23 to wherever it may be, 01:36:25 so I can join with my Kids' Time friends 01:36:27 once more to make music and pray Jesus. 01:36:30 God bless and don't forget to keep smiling. 01:36:35 Well, last but not least is a girl that has sent... 01:36:38 Actually set the record for coming to tape more times 01:36:41 than anyone else. 01:36:42 And are you ready for this, "Ten years". 01:36:46 That's because the very first time she came, 01:36:48 she was only four years old. 01:36:51 She's stole the hearts of everyone 01:36:52 and is best known for her high soprano voice. 01:36:55 She could hit those high notes with such ease, 01:36:58 even as a toddler. 01:37:00 And her mother Lily, a very accomplished piano player 01:37:03 accompanied her each time. 01:37:05 Let's listen to this roll in 2002 of Sofia singing, 01:37:09 "Jesus Loves Me." 01:37:12 Little ones to Him belong 01:37:19 They are weak 01:37:23 But He is strong 01:37:28 Yes 01:37:31 Jesus loves me! 01:37:37 Yes 01:37:40 Jesus loves me! 01:37:46 Yes 01:37:49 Jesus loves me! 01:37:55 The Bible tells me so 01:38:03 And here is Sofia today all grown up, 01:38:09 but not taller than Miss Brenda yet. 01:38:10 No, probably never. 01:38:13 Let me ask you, do you... 01:38:15 I know you probably don't remember that day, 01:38:18 but have you had any wonderful experiences 01:38:21 from being on the program that you can share 01:38:23 with our television viewing audience today?
