01:08 Hello, and welcome to another 3ABN Today program.
01:11 I'm Jason Bradley and I'm excited about the topic
01:15 that we will be discussing.
01:16 It is Project 144.
01:19 What is Project 144?
01:21 Well, you're going to have to stay tuned to find out.
01:23 Here with me is Raven White,
01:26 and she is the Project 144 founder and wellness coach,
01:31 welcome to the program, Raven.
01:33 Thank you. Thank you.
01:34 It's great to have you here.
01:35 It's wonderful to be here.
01:37 I'm looking forward to diving into this interview here.
01:40 I'm gonna tell you everything.
01:42 Yes, I want to know about wellness,
01:44 I want to know about Project 144,
01:47 how it got started and all of that.
01:49 But before we dive in,
01:51 we're going to be blessed in song by John Stoddart.
01:54 And the song is entitled "Come Thou Fount."
02:14 Come, Thou fount of every blessing
02:22 Tune my heart to sing Your grace
02:28 Streams of mercy, never ceasing
02:35 Call for songs of loudest praise
02:41 And teach me ever to adore Thee
02:48 May I still Thy goodness prove
02:56 While the hope of endless glory
03:03 Fills my heart with joy and love
03:20 Here I raise my Ebenezer
03:27 Hither by Thy help I've come
03:34 And I hope, by
03:38 Thy good pleasure
03:41 Safely to arrive at home
03:46 Jesus sought me when a stranger
03:53 Wandering from the fold of God
04:01 He, to rescue me from danger
04:08 Interposed His precious blood
04:16 His precious blood
04:38 Oh, to grace how great a debtor
04:45 Daily I'm constrained to be
04:51 Let thy goodness like a fetter
04:58 Draw me closer, Lord, to Thee
05:04 Prone to wander, Lord, I feel it
05:11 Prone to leave the God I love
05:19 So here's my heart, Lord
05:23 Take and seal it
05:26 Seal it for Your court above
05:31 Prone to wander, Lord, I feel it
05:38 Prone to leave the God I love
05:45 I love
05:50 Here's my heart, Lord
05:53 Take and seal it
05:57 Seal it for Your court above
06:04 Seal it for Your court above
06:11 Seal it for Your court above
06:28 Seal it for Your court above
06:40 Wow!
06:42 John Stoddart is truly gifted, he can play and sing.
06:45 Amen.
06:46 Hopefully when we get to heaven,
06:48 I'll be able to do the same.
06:49 I definitely can't sing right now for sure.
06:53 But, Raven, I want to jump into Project 144 is all about.
06:59 We actually have a little video
07:02 that tells us a little bit about Project 144.
07:05 And after that video,
07:07 maybe you can expound upon that.
07:09 Let's go check out that video now.
07:30 Wherever you are,
07:33 whatever your needs are for a better health,
07:36 our lifestyle agents are here to assist you.
07:40 Project 144 connects lifestyle agents
07:43 who are educated in natural remedies
07:45 and herbal medicine, with those who are in need.
07:48 Whether you are needing a live-in lifestyle coach
07:51 for short or long term,
07:53 needing some coaching
07:55 after leaving your lifestyle center program
07:57 or are needing counseling via phone or video call,
08:02 we are here for you.
08:09 It's time to heal from what is holding you back
08:12 of living your life to the fullest.
08:15 Call now at 423-521-5058
08:19 or go to missionaryagency.com
08:23 and we will get you set up
08:24 with the right lifestyle agent for you.
08:32 Wow, that's a really interesting
08:34 and nice clip to show us
08:36 a little bit about what Project 144 is about.
08:39 What can you add to that?
08:41 Well, one of the things
08:42 that I love about our agency is that
08:45 it's really people who are just trying to utilize their skills
08:49 to reach souls for Christ.
08:51 I was never one who's going to be the Bible worker,
08:54 colporteur, knock on the door selling some book,
08:56 that's not whom I am.
08:58 But I want to be able
08:59 to help finish the work like everyone else,
09:03 so our agency is full of people who says,
09:05 "We want to use utilize health to do that."
09:09 So we learn natural remedies,
09:11 whether it's herbs or how to do hydrotherapy,
09:15 vegan cooking, exercise plans, timely management,
09:18 help you with your depression.
09:20 We're trying to empower you, you know,
09:23 and so in our agency,
09:24 I don't want to just help the client,
09:26 I want to keep the agent well as well.
09:28 So I check in each week
09:30 to make sure everything's okay.
09:32 When you're dealing with various clients
09:34 who are hurting, sometimes they hurt back.
09:36 And they don't mean to, you know,
09:38 you have Alzheimer's patients
09:39 who don't remember what they're doing
09:41 and sometimes they scream and yell,
09:43 you have to remember not to take it personal,
09:45 and we're there to help people know Christ.
09:47 Even in our agency at times,
09:49 we've even helped people prepare for death.
09:51 I mean, we've been with them until they died,
09:53 I mean, we had one just recently,
09:56 family is not even Christian,
09:57 but they were willing to hear the gospel
10:00 and let her die in peace
10:01 and invited us to the funeral in another country.
10:04 So that's just what we're about,
10:06 it's about finishing the work
10:08 and reaching souls for Christ,
10:09 but we just choose to do it in this way,
10:11 in a practical way.
10:12 Praise the Lord.
10:14 Well, how did you
10:15 or where did you receive your training?
10:16 At Wildwood Center Health Evangelism,
10:19 where I'm still working now
10:20 as an integration director at the lifestyle center.
10:23 They taught me again disease and treatment,
10:25 natural remedies
10:26 and when I was in the advanced course,
10:28 is they have a six month course and a one year course.
10:31 I did the advanced course and while I was there,
10:34 I was like "Guys, you know,
10:35 we're not going to remember all this stuff.
10:37 It's good to apply it now."
10:39 And so at that time,
10:41 I had a ministry called Regain in Eden,
10:43 I learned it from a quote
10:44 I read in Spirit of Prophecy which says,
10:46 "If we can regain Eden by following Christ methods."
10:49 And so I'm thinking,
10:50 "Let's name the ministry Regain in Eden
10:52 and lets learn things."
10:54 So we had people call us,
10:55 send us their medical records as students
10:58 and we're talking to them, going through the encyclopedias
11:00 that we have written as, you know,
11:02 our Adventists doctors wrote.
11:04 And we're trying to help them with their health,
11:05 we're going out to churches
11:07 and we're doing health programs as students,
11:09 you know, and then we decided
11:11 we wanted to create a network system.
11:13 But at the time we didn't really have anything set,
11:15 but we were thinking,
11:17 how do we support one another when we all leave?
11:19 And so, Regain was birth there
11:22 and it really didn't come to light until 2014,
11:26 when my dad was dying.
11:28 And I was trying to find someone
11:29 to send to his home who knew natural remedies
11:32 who can help my dad,
11:33 but there really wasn't an organized hub for that.
11:37 So by 2015,
11:38 and me just trying to find people to say,
11:40 "Hey, are you interested?
11:42 Are you interested to try to get into a hub?"
11:44 I have more people contacting me
11:46 because word of mouth went around fast.
11:48 And so I started sending people out,
11:49 just connecting people, just whoever was willing to go.
11:54 By 2016 it became solid,
11:57 you know, like, let's just make it a business
11:58 because people after a while started to want to know
12:00 "Are you legit?"
12:01 Yeah, yeah.
12:02 And becoming a business makes you legit.
12:04 But it really is, again,
12:05 people who just want to share the Gospel of Jesus
12:08 by utilizing the health message to do it.
12:10 So at Wildwood, they teach you all of these things,
12:13 how to help with diabetes, hypertension, cancer,
12:18 naturally the same way
12:19 what we do in lifestyle centers.
12:21 So we're taking what you would do at a lifestyle center
12:23 and we're bringing it to your home.
12:26 Whether we talk to you on a phone,
12:27 you know, doing on the internet
12:29 or coming into your home doing a visit,
12:31 and a minimum of at least four hours, if we need.
12:33 We have a lady who said that,
12:35 "Can you just come help me with my kitchen,
12:36 you know, what should I get rid of?
12:38 How should I cook? How should I eat?
12:40 How should I shop?"
12:41 It's interesting
12:43 because a lot of people don't know that,
12:44 I mean, those are things that
12:46 a lot of people grow up without knowing,
12:47 you know, how should I eat?
12:48 How should I shop like you said?
12:50 Exactly. Exactly. And it gets...
12:51 You have trepidation in trying to change to a new lifestyle
12:55 with the old habits in your old environment,
12:58 so we're willing to take that extra step and empower you,
13:02 so that's what makes us a little different.
13:04 You have other agencies that are non-medical,
13:07 but what makes us different is that
13:09 we will pray with you,
13:11 we will bring the natural remedies aspect
13:13 and we will empower you.
13:15 So it's not just coming to do it all for you,
13:18 but it's to do it with you and assist you as well.
13:21 And we check in to make sure
13:23 everyone is doing well on a continual basis,
13:25 so there's peace with the service.
13:27 Yes.
13:28 And it's not just a business, this is a ministry.
13:31 It's a ministry, exactly, exactly.
13:33 Absolutely.
13:35 Now, what advanced courses...
13:37 Tell me about some advanced courses?
13:39 Okay.
13:40 So at the Center of Health Evangelism,
13:42 now they have if you want to...
13:45 The six month course will teach you everything...
13:47 Okay. Okay, massage, hydrotherapy.
13:50 But then if you say, "I want to know deeper."
13:52 Okay. Okay.
13:53 So you have the advanced course
13:55 where it has just lifestyle training,
13:56 lifestyle coaching,
13:58 and then you have the business course
13:59 and I teach entrepreneur business course,
14:01 I mean, class, this class and of course,
14:03 okay, so for those who said, "I want to start a business,
14:07 I want to know a little bit more.
14:08 How do I run my own?"
14:09 Or "Hey, I want to do more lifestyle,
14:11 get out there and do one on one or work in a lifestyle center."
14:14 We have those two for the advanced course
14:17 and it's usually a one year course
14:18 and then you do an apprenticeship as well
14:20 to help train you with that.
14:21 Oh, nice. Wow.
14:22 Okay.
14:24 And what are...
14:26 Let's say, all of the services that Project 144 offers,
14:30 I know you said you go into the homes,
14:31 you may look and see what they have,
14:34 help them with their shopping list,
14:36 help them learn how to eat.
14:38 What other things?
14:40 So you have a breakdown of the coaching,
14:43 consultation coaching,
14:45 we really get into the depths, hearing your goals,
14:48 and then saying, "How can we meet your needs?
14:51 What are you doing?
14:52 What are you eating? How are you living?
14:53 How are you sleeping? How are you working?
14:55 What are your thought patterns, based upon your goals?"
14:58 Or if someone says, "I need someone long term."
15:01 That's care giving.
15:03 So we have someone for that.
15:05 We also have actually in the lifestyle program,
15:07 I can't go out to Wildwood, I can't go out to Uchee Pines,
15:09 you know, "Can you come do it here?
15:11 Or can you follow up from a lifestyle program?
15:13 How do I take what I've learned in my lifestyle program
15:16 into my home?"
15:17 We're trying to even get to the point where
15:19 if your doctors tell you something,
15:20 and you're like, "I don't know how to apply this,
15:22 how do I apply this,"
15:23 then we can be able to help with that.
15:25 And then we also have an education system
15:27 so if you would like us to come to you,
15:29 we've had our agents go into homes
15:32 and educate you in your home,
15:33 we can educate your church,
15:35 we can educate your business and just teach them,
15:37 I mean, basic, if you have hypertension,
15:40 something as simple as putting heating pad on your kidneys
15:44 will help lower your blood pressure.
15:46 So something as simple as that, doing a hot foot bath,
15:49 basic things, you don't need Tylenol,
15:52 we want to teach that.
15:53 So they are empowered to help others.
15:55 So there's a lot of natural remedies
15:57 that are available that will, you know, a lot of times
16:00 when you look at medicine, right?
16:02 Medicine just masks the symptoms,
16:04 but it doesn't go to the root cause.
16:07 Right, exactly.
16:08 So you guys kind of find the root cause
16:10 and treat that?
16:11 To the best of our ability
16:13 we hear what your chief complaint is
16:15 and we try to meet your needs with your chief complaint.
16:18 If we need us to work with your provider,
16:21 we can do that.
16:22 Now we have a nurse practitioner on staff.
16:25 So if you need a little bit extra wisdom
16:27 and knowledge on what to do, we have her,
16:29 mental health specialist,
16:30 we're even looking for a nutritionist, plug,
16:34 you know, doctor, super dieter, plug, you know,
16:37 so what we're trying to do,
16:39 we're trying to become a little bit more holistic
16:41 for those who cannot come to a lifestyle program.
16:44 How can we bring it to you?
16:46 Because sometimes it's hard to go away for six weeks or,
16:49 you know, or however long, you know, the program maybe,
16:52 you have to go to work, you have to...
16:54 Yeah, so that's beautiful that you go into the home.
16:57 Now, where are these services available?
16:59 Well, actually nationwide.
17:02 I'm trying to get an agent in every state.
17:05 Right now there's only a few agents
17:07 and maybe the major like New York and Connecticut,
17:10 DC and Chattanooga,
17:12 but I'm trying to get them all over
17:14 so people have to keep flying people
17:16 such far distances.
17:18 I've even had people call me from out of the country.
17:20 Now I don't really delved into that too much
17:23 only because I want to make sure
17:25 I'm not sending anyone from their area to their home
17:28 and I don't know them.
17:29 And that brings me to my next question for you,
17:32 you know, people at home may be concerned about
17:35 who's coming into their home and naturally so.
17:39 What kind of safety guidelines
17:42 or parameters do you have in place?
17:44 Okay.
17:46 So one of the things is a nine reference background check.
17:49 So I personally call each place asking about their character,
17:53 ask about their work ethic, their spiritual ethic,
17:56 as well as trying to see
17:59 where their mindset is in dealing with people
18:02 in their home, if they're...
18:04 How do they handle anger?
18:05 How do they handle
18:07 when a person won't follow their lead
18:09 and keep up what they're asking for?
18:11 Because that deals with the emotional aspect of that pride,
18:15 making sure that you're not sending someone in there
18:17 who is rough.
18:18 So, but I also do a check on the people themselves.
18:23 I've sent my agents out places
18:25 and I want to make sure that their homes are safe as well.
18:28 So I do reference checks on the clients as well.
18:32 And if they're needed,
18:34 if we need to do a background check, we will.
18:36 But one of my future goals is to put agents in various places
18:41 so they can go check the homes as well.
18:43 So that's something else that I want to do but each week
18:45 I try to check in again with the client
18:48 and with the agent to make sure everything's okay.
18:50 Nice.
18:51 And what types of conditions do you help with?
18:55 Okay, so at this point we will take on anything
18:59 but we will let people know, again,
19:01 we're not the healer, we're just a catalyst,
19:04 so we will try to do our best.
19:07 And some people come in such late stages
19:10 that we'll let them know,
19:12 the natural remedies probably won't work in a time period
19:16 that you're giving us.
19:18 Someone who's saying
19:19 "I actually want to lose some weight."
19:21 Well, that's a very different, you know,
19:22 probably within a week or two,
19:23 we can make that really happen depending on your goals.
19:26 But for someone who has stage four cancer,
19:29 well, 11 days or 25 days
19:31 is not going to reverse that so fast, you know,
19:34 if you can give us the time.
19:35 So like I've mentioned before,
19:37 we had a person who was in late stage,
19:40 and we help them pass away, you know,
19:43 we were with them, we prayed with them,
19:45 and we did the best we could,
19:46 giving them still a hope
19:48 that they can live a better life
19:50 until they die.
19:52 And so they died with less pain
19:54 without being pumped with medications.
19:57 But we're willing to take it on,
19:59 we would suggest, some people
20:00 probably go to a lifestyle center first,
20:02 we'll try to work with their medical professionals
20:03 as much as we can,
20:05 but we want to give people hope
20:06 that they're not doing it alone.
20:08 And that's really the biggest thing that we'll do.
20:09 So we'll take on anything,
20:12 but we're not allowed
20:13 because we're not medical professionals
20:15 to touch medications
20:17 which makes it very difficult for them at times.
20:19 So they would need another person
20:20 to come in and put their medications together
20:23 and we'll remind them to take their medications.
20:26 But we'll do everything else
20:27 to try to the best of our ability.
20:29 Nice.
20:30 And do you have a specific demographic
20:32 in terms of age or a need?
20:34 Well, honestly, we deal with 45 and up,
20:37 that demographic is much more willing to be honest
20:39 that they have a problem
20:41 as well as they have the ability to pay.
20:44 We've worked with younger people,
20:45 but it's still that demographic say,
20:47 "Hey, can you help my niece and nephew or my child?
20:50 So that demographics is usually 40 and up,
20:53 we'll be willing to help.
20:55 And what's the difference between a lifestyle center
20:59 and Project 144?
21:00 Okay.
21:02 So we're the one on one lifestyle center.
21:05 So in the lifestyle center, you have a department
21:08 who's geared for your hydrotherapy,
21:10 you know, the kitchen is geared for your health.
21:13 And you have, maybe even your medical providers,
21:16 which we have at Uchee Pines or Wildwood.
21:19 With us, with that one person doing everything,
21:23 so instead of a fancy 16 jet
21:26 contrast shower that you'll get,
21:27 you got your shower, hot, cold, you know.
21:31 Yeah.
21:32 Instead of some fomentation with a steam tank,
21:34 we have towels and we'll be using your oven
21:36 or your microwave.
21:37 Okay. So there's...
21:39 We'll give you the same treatments
21:41 but just understand it's in your home.
21:43 Yes, and you're improvising, utilizing the things
21:47 that are available to you.
21:48 Exactly.
21:50 And that's why we check in with our agents
21:51 because it's a lot doing
21:53 a whole lifestyle department program.
21:56 You're one person doing it yourself,
21:58 you know, and you're living with that person
22:00 24 hours a day.
22:02 If that's, if you're doing in home programs.
22:04 Yeah, got you.
22:05 So what...
22:08 People are probably thinking like, "What is the cost?"
22:10 What does this cost? You know, does it vary...
22:13 Arm and a leg.
22:14 Yeah, yeah, how much,
22:16 like what are the costs for the services you offer?
22:20 It's definitely a little cheaper
22:21 because it's in your home.
22:22 So it ranges from $600 to about $1000
22:27 depending on if a person just want a companion,
22:29 or they want someone in their home
22:31 who knows natural remedies, hydrotherapy,
22:34 doing the vegan cooking, going out shopping for them,
22:36 cleaning for them,
22:38 or they're just giving them information.
22:39 So there's a range,
22:41 or doing a full lifestyle program,
22:43 or care giving, it ranges.
22:44 Got you.
22:46 Based on the services that's around you.
22:47 It's based on the services, yeah.
22:49 What kind of financing is available?
22:51 So God has blessed
22:52 that we have care credit partnered with another group,
22:56 where they're able to pay
22:57 for their medical services up front
22:59 and then they have six months to a year
23:02 to pay back with no interest.
23:05 We've also learned from our nurse practitioner
23:07 about superbill,
23:08 so we're able to give a bill that's been set up
23:11 that you can give to an insurance company
23:14 and they're able to say,
23:15 "Hey, I have out of coverage services here,
23:18 if you could just help me pay for it.
23:21 Whatever little bit you can give,
23:23 it will be great."
23:24 So that's what I've learned about superbill as of recently
23:26 something we're going to try to add to it.
23:29 We are looking to have a fund for low income,
23:34 you know, clients,
23:35 we're working with a nonprofit organization right now
23:37 that does tax write offs,
23:39 so anytime you want to give to help support the ministry,
23:43 you can be able to get a tax write off,
23:44 but we're trying to develop just a fund just for them.
23:47 So for a lot of people who can't pick
23:49 as it is out of pocket.
23:51 If we do get a supervisor, a medical supervisor,
23:55 then we'll probably be able to start now
23:58 billing insurance companies
23:59 because now I have a medical,
24:01 mental health specialists on team
24:03 and I have a nurse practitioner on team.
24:06 So that's a good thing,
24:07 we're trying to get a nutritionist
24:09 like I was mentioning before
24:10 but they can bill for their services.
24:11 So you're currently looking
24:13 for those positions to be filled.
24:14 Yes, yes.
24:16 You want to make sure we put that out there as well.
24:17 Because we're trying to help the client,
24:19 we're trying to help the person
24:20 and the whole goal again is utilizing our skills
24:23 to reach souls for Christ.
24:25 So we can finish this work, right?
24:26 Amen.
24:27 So that's kind of the thing we're doing.
24:29 Okay.
24:30 Tell us about some of your workers?
24:31 Okay.
24:33 Some of your employees?
24:34 They vary, they're from, if the person says,
24:35 "Look, I don't know anything, but I want to help."
24:37 You know, "Can you help me out?"
24:39 With just that I do want to utilize my heart
24:42 and whatever skills I have.
24:43 And then we have nurses,
24:45 you know, we have mental health specialists,
24:47 we have CNAs,
24:49 we have various people
24:50 who've been doing the medical missionary work
24:52 for 15 years.
24:54 So as of, I have two testimonies
24:56 where we have one young lady
24:57 who hugged with a nurse though,
24:59 but she herself is like,
25:01 "Look, I just want to get into this
25:02 medical missionary stuff."
25:03 Yeah.
25:05 And, but I had a lady say,
25:06 "But I need somebody right now."
25:08 And I said, "Well, I don't really have anyone,
25:09 they're all already designated out,
25:10 but I do have this young lady who's willing to come help."
25:13 And what I'll do is
25:14 I'll utilize the skills and knowledge
25:16 I've learned from the Center of Health Evangelism,
25:18 to be able to, you know, help you as much as I can.
25:21 So we would tag team, you know, I would give her information,
25:24 I sent her diabetic...
25:26 And it was a diabetic patient at the time,
25:28 sent her diabetic menus.
25:31 I sent her hydrotherapy treatment she could do,
25:33 and the lady is now off her insulin.
25:36 And so then I had another lady just come from Arizona.
25:40 She went to help out
25:41 and the beautiful part is that lady couldn't walk.
25:46 I was like, "Are you kidding me?"
25:47 And her legs were swollen.
25:48 Within three weeks she's walking.
25:51 She's walking and the lady came
25:53 and gave a testimony at Wildwood,
25:54 so I was like "Yay."
25:56 That is awesome. So the thing is...
25:58 But I end up telling her, texting her like,
26:00 "Okay, do this hydrotherapy but do this,"
26:02 because there are people who are skilled,
26:04 but they're already sent out.
26:05 And so that's one of the things
26:07 that I want to have for a future
26:08 is on job training.
26:10 Because I believe our institutions
26:11 are great in training people, their knowledge is superior.
26:14 But now I'm trying to get someone
26:16 who's prepared to do in home training alone,
26:20 how do I handle Type II diabetes
26:22 or even Type I diabetes?
26:24 How do I handle stage four cancer,
26:26 we've been getting a lot of cancer patients.
26:29 How do I handle with someone with chronic pain?
26:32 You know, just knowing that kind of knowledge
26:34 and being prepared to handle emotional people
26:38 who are saying "I'm in pain, I'm angry,
26:40 I'm screaming, I'm hollering,
26:41 I can't do this anymore."
26:45 And my agent is able to say, "You know what?
26:46 We can do this.
26:48 I know how to call upon the Lord and say,
26:49 "Lord, you need to help me with this,"
26:51 because it's a mental training as well as just skills.
26:55 So at this stage we'll take on,
26:58 we'll take on people
27:00 but as we're taking on people,
27:01 I want them to be prepared, you know,
27:04 to handle whatever situation with Christ.
27:07 And that's the key thing when it comes to my agents,
27:10 but I'll take you on.
27:11 And if you have enough skills,
27:13 I can probably just put you out there
27:15 depending on what the client is willing to take
27:16 or what they need.
27:18 But majority people I say,
27:19 "Can you please go to Wildwood or even take a Light program.
27:22 Light does one month medical missionary program.
27:25 So that's another place
27:26 where I send them for that as well.
27:28 Okay, you know, one of the things
27:30 I like about your company or organization
27:33 is that you look at both sides.
27:36 So you take care of your agents,
27:38 you make sure that they're safe and taken care of
27:40 and you also go in to the client,
27:43 and you're making sure that they're going to be safe
27:45 and taken care of as well.
27:47 What's your recruitment process?
27:50 Usually, I go to medical missionary schools.
27:54 Because again, trying to get people
27:57 who know about natural remedies,
27:58 disease and treatments, nutrition, hydrotherapy,
28:02 so I start there,
28:03 and then I start branching out to Indeed,
28:06 you know, another job site,
28:08 because many people are already out there.
28:10 And so they may be looking at...
28:12 I do Facebook.
28:14 I try to go to churches.
28:15 Word of mouth is really big. Okay.
28:17 So that's kind of wherever the recruitment right now
28:20 and I really want to have this conference
28:24 because I want to unite medical missionaries together
28:27 which I call Project Central,
28:29 it's supportive networking system,
28:31 I would like to develop
28:32 and have a hub again for medical missionaries.
28:36 And even those who are not just doing health,
28:38 but they're doing graphic design,
28:39 maybe they're doing video editing,
28:41 maybe they're doing auto mechanics,
28:43 but they want to utilize their skills
28:46 to reach souls for Christ.
28:47 So my desire again is to create a hub
28:50 to support one another, individuals though.
28:54 But for the agency itself,
28:56 yes, I usually do medical missionary
28:58 schools or Facebook or word of mouth
29:01 to try to get people, or 3ABN.
29:03 There you go. There you go.
29:04 Absolutely. That's a great one.
29:08 How long is your training process?
29:11 So it either can be a one month,
29:13 like with the Light program.
29:15 When it comes to me personally, I train them,
29:18 we're trying to do at least a week or two,
29:20 to really get them into basic things
29:22 that they need, I mean, vegan cooking, hydrotherapy,
29:26 those are the basic things that they would need to know,
29:29 at least for the training aspect.
29:31 And we're just going to try to build more on that,
29:33 but right now the quickest thing
29:35 when someone comes and says, "I don't know what I'm doing,
29:37 can you please help me?"
29:38 Here's some recipes, here's some treatments
29:41 and let us work with you, you know, that.
29:45 What would you say to someone
29:46 who's interested in working with you,
29:47 but perhaps they don't have any experience?
29:50 Come on down. Okay.
29:53 Come, come, let us see what you have.
29:57 A lot of times we would say
29:58 a person doesn't have any experience
30:00 but they really do.
30:02 Some people need that companion care.
30:04 Some people need to know that they're not failures,
30:06 and you're a wonderful encourager.
30:09 And then just again,
30:10 like the two people I had prior,
30:12 they took the little bit of knowledge
30:14 I gave them for diabetes, for swollen legs,
30:18 for the ability of not be able to walk
30:20 and to be able to make an impact in their lives
30:22 because they were willing.
30:24 So for my deeper patients, yes,
30:27 I need you to know a little bit more into the treatment
30:29 so you can stand on your own.
30:31 But for small things, now, come on, join
30:34 and if there's something else you need to know more,
30:37 then we'll guide you in the right direction.
30:38 Yes.
30:40 How have you impacted your clients spiritually?
30:43 Okay.
30:44 So we already got the physical aspect,
30:46 which is usually the easiest one people think is,
30:49 but it's actually 9/10 of all diseases start in the mind.
30:52 Okay.
30:54 So when we counsel them, when we asked them,
30:56 "How are you doing with your time management?
30:58 How are you doing with your worship life?
31:00 You know, are you sleeping?
31:02 A lot of times people have been abused.
31:04 Some people are still dealing with grief,
31:06 they're dealing with denial of life,
31:07 unforgiveness.
31:09 And we found that as we work with them,
31:12 the ulcers that they had in their stomach
31:13 is going away, you know,
31:15 the pains that they have in their body is going away
31:17 because now they're dealing with really the mental
31:20 that is causing the physical.
31:22 And God has blessed a lot,
31:24 so again when the lady has stage four cancer,
31:26 you're dealing with cancer patients,
31:27 sometimes you deal with people feel like
31:29 they have no hope,
31:30 but the world is telling you, "It's a done deal."
31:32 And so try to encourage them and have worship with them
31:35 and give them hope that
31:37 Christ has the power to heal even if it's just emotionally
31:41 and mentally
31:43 and we leave the physical to Him.
31:46 It's been a blessing, it is truly been a blessing.
31:48 So that is more of a...
31:50 That's more because people know
31:51 we're Christians so they're more open.
31:53 Yes.
31:54 And so that's moreover we wanted for week,
31:55 I almost said almost with all clients.
31:57 Yeah.
31:58 Have you always been passionate about health and wellness
32:01 like your whole life or,
32:03 you know, when did that come out about?
32:05 Oh, you... Oh, yeah.
32:07 I wasn't a Christian,
32:08 I actually had a misconception about God.
32:11 Health helped me understand
32:12 that there was an higher power about God.
32:14 Creation isn't just understanding
32:16 why the body is functioning the way it's functioning
32:18 and people kept saying, "Oh, you know,
32:20 we're evolutionists, we come from monkeys."
32:21 You come from a monkey.
32:23 I don't come from a monkey.
32:25 So as I started to read and study
32:27 more about Christianity,
32:29 I started to learn then about natural remedies
32:33 and just various things,
32:35 and so my brother went into a coma
32:38 and he came out of it,
32:40 and they thought he should have been brain dead
32:41 because he's Type 1 diabetic.
32:43 My friends went to Wildwood,
32:45 and I thought the place was a little whacked out
32:47 because who works for a little bit of money
32:50 to try to take care of people,
32:51 that wasn't something I'm used to.
32:53 But when he got sick, I was like, "Go to Wildwood."
32:55 You know, there's some people
32:57 who work for a little bit of money
32:58 for those who are sick.
33:00 And I was 220 pounds at the time and he said,
33:03 "Well, if that's the case and you're sickly,
33:05 why is it not working for you?"
33:08 Okay.
33:10 I think I told your mom that one time we had a conversation,
33:12 that was the biggest rebuke ever,
33:14 so me going there, I learned about health there.
33:18 And they kept saying the diverticulitis
33:20 that I had is incurable.
33:21 They said the fibroids will never go away,
33:24 but I've left atheism to become a Christian.
33:27 So I didn't see why...
33:30 If God can do that in healing all these people in the Bible
33:33 and all the testimonies you all preach,
33:35 why can't He heal me?
33:37 And I follow the regiment
33:38 that I was told there at Wildwood and again,
33:42 I turned around, the doctor was saying,
33:43 "No, you never had diverticulitis."
33:45 I said, "Why is that?"
33:46 They said "Because we can't find any diverticulums
33:49 in your intestines."
33:50 I said, "Where's my machine that told me I had it."
33:52 And it was my machine that told me I didn't.
33:55 Now same with the fibroids.
33:57 And so one of the things that I learned just about health,
34:00 I'm passionate about it because when my dad was passing away,
34:03 I lost 60 pounds.
34:05 But then when he passed away, I learned about grief.
34:07 And that's what made me really
34:08 get more into mental health.
34:10 Because then you don't know
34:11 how much your thought pattern affects your body,
34:14 then I gained all this weight.
34:15 And so I started to realize
34:17 how long it took me to bounce back.
34:20 But you don't put the two and two together,
34:21 what is a coping mechanism
34:23 that is really keeping you from your goals?
34:25 And that's what started to develop my passion
34:27 to do more of this,
34:29 because I've seen in my personal life,
34:31 I know about health education,
34:33 I know about the gospel, but even myself
34:36 when I was going through something,
34:37 I didn't know how to apply it, it was a struggle alone.
34:40 And sometimes you need assistance.
34:43 I see the lifestyle guests that we have that go home
34:46 and they are struggling to keep up,
34:48 even though they were sincere when they came
34:50 and they were sincere when they left,
34:51 but habit kicks in and it gets hard.
34:54 Yes.
34:55 And so after a while, it's like no,
34:57 I can't have someone else be like my dad,
34:59 trying to find some help.
35:01 I can't sit back and keep having priorities saying,
35:03 I should have been taking care of myself all this time.
35:06 And realize now we're dealing five years later,
35:08 and I'm now getting back to say,
35:10 "I see what kept me from my goals."
35:12 Now, I'm losing my weight now.
35:14 But people can see me and say, "Raven, can you be so big baby,
35:18 you know.
35:19 But it's like, you know what, I had to learn that grief,
35:22 depression, unforgiveness really can cause a lot,
35:26 you know, and you don't know it,
35:28 so you don't know what you're fighting against.
35:30 And so I have a passion to teach people
35:32 you don't know the weapons of the warfare.
35:35 And now you need to know it
35:36 and how do you combat it with God?
35:38 That's what I want to teach people.
35:40 So I had to go through my own stuff.
35:41 Yeah.
35:43 And that is beautiful, I mean, the combination of the two,
35:46 not just a health message, but combining,
35:49 you know, good health and wellness
35:52 with spirituality, with Christ, with God.
35:56 That is beautiful.
35:57 You sound like you have a powerful testimony.
36:00 And I kind of want to touch on that a little bit.
36:03 So you went from being atheist to Christian.
36:07 How long were you atheist for?
36:08 I've really, all my upbringing.
36:10 I dealt with some abuse in the past and the person who,
36:13 one of the people who abused me at one point prayed with me.
36:16 And so my understanding of God
36:19 what it means sexually abused and so it took me a minute,
36:22 everyone in my family eventually bounced back,
36:24 got into Christ
36:26 after certain periods of things that happened in our lives.
36:29 But me myself, I was not dealing with it.
36:32 And how do you go around telling people
36:33 "Oh, because all this stuff happened to me.
36:35 Whoo, whoo, whoo.
36:36 But in the end, that abuse hindered me
36:38 from getting education.
36:40 I couldn't read until the age of 20,
36:41 I had like a third grade reading comprehension.
36:44 And so they just kept pushing me through school.
36:46 And so from elementary,
36:48 I can't remember what stage everything just shut down.
36:50 But from elementary up to my second year of college,
36:52 I was in remedial classes.
36:54 And so reading was difficult for me,
36:58 and so I just would shut down and say,
37:00 "Well, I'm not good enough."
37:02 After you've been abused in certain areas
37:03 and it wasn't just, it wasn't from the family,
37:06 it was people but you don't say anything.
37:08 That's some of the downsides about...
37:11 Sometimes our black communities,
37:12 we don't speak about what goes on.
37:15 I could have just stepped up and say,
37:17 "Hey, somebody help me."
37:18 And the times that I did in work areas
37:20 where I say, "Hey, somebody did something to me,"
37:22 nothing ever happened so it settled in
37:24 that you're not good enough, nothing would ever happen.
37:27 You might well just be quiet.
37:29 And so for someone else, they said,
37:32 "They could get through that."
37:33 Me, it took me a long time.
37:36 And I settled in myself.
37:37 I was never good enough,
37:39 which is one of the problems of starting the agency.
37:41 Because I had this vision way back,
37:44 you know, when God gave me this,
37:46 and then we got into school, and then I was like on fire.
37:50 But then when people leave,
37:52 I said, "Oh, I can't do nothing.
37:54 I need to stay at Wildwood.
37:55 I'll be the seminar director, I'll just do this,
37:57 I can't do anything, I can't be a leader."
37:59 And that was me but people kept saying
38:00 "No, Raven, you can do it, you can do it."
38:02 I'm like, "No, no, no, I'm too stupid.
38:03 I can't read. I can't focus."
38:06 And so by 2012 someone says,
38:09 "Hey, Raven, why don't you start an agency?"
38:10 Because they knew I had this passion
38:12 to help medical missionaries
38:14 who would lead these institutions
38:15 and get out.
38:16 But I said, "No, no, no, I'm not smart enough for that."
38:18 So I wrote up the blueprint,
38:20 gave it to various people and say,
38:21 "You all should do it."
38:23 And they were like, "No, Raven, you should do it."
38:24 I said, "No, no, no."
38:26 Because for Raven, I'm not smart enough,
38:28 I'm only good for sex,
38:29 I'm only good for nothing, I'm not good for anything.
38:32 You don't say it
38:33 but you say to yourself, okay.
38:36 And then by 2013,
38:37 someone said the same thing again.
38:39 "Hey, why don't you start an agency?
38:40 Why won't you do it?"
38:41 You know, and mind, those were verbatim words,
38:44 then I found out my dad was dying in 2014.
38:48 And I said, "Well, I'm leaving Wildwood.
38:50 I'm gonna go home and take care of my dad.
38:51 I need to find some work to do."
38:53 My friend said, "Why don't you call this lady."
38:55 This lady should be able to give you some guidance,
38:57 you know, and so she wouldn't call me back
38:59 for like a week or two.
39:00 And then she said, "You know, Raven,"
39:02 I was really praying about what God wanted me to tell you.
39:05 He told me you should be a life coach or a wellness coach
39:09 and start an agency.
39:11 I said, "Let me ask you something?
39:12 Do you know these two people?"
39:14 And she was like, "No."
39:15 I say "You mean to tell me
39:16 God told you with verbatim words
39:18 that I should be, I should start an agency."
39:21 And at the time, I was finishing
39:23 a life and wellness coaching program
39:26 that Thomas Jackson at MEET ministries...
39:28 Yeah, Dr. Jackson, yeah.
39:30 He believed in work.
39:31 I told him about the agency,
39:32 sometime I tell everyone else to do it.
39:34 Okay, and he then, "No, no, you need to do it."
39:37 I need to empower you.
39:38 So I got even that from him, empowerment.
39:42 I'm like, "No guys, I don't get it.
39:43 Something's wrong with me."
39:45 And I wouldn't say that. Okay.
39:47 I just showed it in anger
39:49 or I may showed it in a many other ways
39:51 but I had a hard time saying, "I feel I'm messed up.
39:55 And I'm no good."
39:56 So you internalized a lot of the things
39:58 that you struggled with over the years
40:01 and you didn't verbalize it?
40:02 No, not really. Not really.
40:04 Even when I did, in the ways
40:06 that I thought I was being clear,
40:07 it seemed to fall on deaf ears.
40:10 So I've gone and made me trivialize it after a while.
40:13 But when my dad died, oh, that shifted everything.
40:17 At that point I stopped caring.
40:19 But more so again even more about myself.
40:23 But then I had this other internal drive within me
40:25 to not let people be like my father.
40:29 And so I have to admit,
40:31 that the bumbling through the years
40:33 with this agency has saved me.
40:36 It's given me purpose.
40:39 And it has taught me that
40:41 my brokenness is not really brokenness,
40:43 it was personally for myself,
40:46 Satan's way of trying to stop me
40:47 from doing God's calling.
40:49 Absolutely, that He placed on your life.
40:51 And that's you're trying to give to everybody else.
40:54 "Here take, you know,
40:55 take this blueprint and run with it."
40:57 Right, exactly.
40:58 Take this blueprint and run with it,
40:59 how God called you to start that.
41:01 Exactly. Exactly. Yeah.
41:02 And I had to learn that your vision is your vision.
41:04 And I had a lot of discouraging people
41:06 even who started businesses,
41:08 I've had people discourage me like "No, no, no, Raven,
41:10 it'll be too hard."
41:11 I'm like, "Whoa, of course, it's hard
41:13 but you kept your business.
41:15 And you're still running your business."
41:17 And so I had to learn that in the end,
41:20 after now my father passed,
41:22 and God kept me somehow, He just kept me,
41:25 He kept me focused,
41:27 looking at others and not focusing on myself,
41:30 but focusing on others.
41:32 I started to say in the end, "I'm not giving up."
41:34 And even when I wanted to give up,
41:35 then He'll send more people say, "Raven, don't give up."
41:38 And so I started getting encouragement
41:39 out of the woodwork,
41:41 out the woodwork along with the discouragement,
41:43 but I started to not look at them anymore
41:45 and look at the encouragement.
41:46 And it has been keeping me going.
41:47 And so now I sit back and say,
41:49 "Raven, you can't look at the low self-esteem,
41:51 rebuke that in the name of Jesus."
41:52 You know, don't look at...
41:53 Oh, I couldn't read,
41:55 but you couldn't but you can now.
41:56 So stop speaking those negative words.
41:58 And that's the thing we try to teach our guests,
42:00 where's the life, life and death is in a tongue.
42:03 Find out your coping mechanism. Yeah.
42:04 Find out your, your kryptonite. Yeah.
42:06 You know, what is really holding you back?
42:08 Because we're built to handle adversity,
42:11 we're built to be strong
42:13 because we were built from a strong God.
42:15 You know, so a lot of our past redefined that experience
42:19 and realize that only strengthen us
42:20 to make us stronger to help others.
42:22 So that's my belief system
42:24 and that's kind of the foundation
42:25 of where this agency came in.
42:26 And that is deep and, you know,
42:28 a lot of times it seems like people project their own fears
42:32 and doubts on to you, you know,
42:34 because I can't do something
42:36 or I feel like I can't do something
42:38 then that means you can't do it either.
42:40 No, that's not true, you know.
42:43 So, yeah, I'm glad that you pressed forward.
42:46 I'm glad that God got a hold of your life.
42:48 Thank you.
42:49 And pulled you out of that situation
42:51 and you're answering the calling
42:53 that He's placed on your life.
42:54 Thank you. You're welcome.
42:56 Your passion really comes across for wellness
42:59 and health and the whole thing.
43:02 What is wellness to you?
43:04 Wellness is really complete wholeness,
43:07 to be able to reach a person mentally, spiritually,
43:10 physically and emotionally.
43:13 I want you to be in a mindset
43:15 of seeing life in yourself from God's point of view,
43:17 that's wellness for me.
43:20 And I want to make everyone as much as possible well.
43:23 Yes. Absolutely, absolutely.
43:27 What are your plans for the future?
43:29 My desire is to try to connect with more health institutions.
43:35 So we can do programs like in the YMCA, if possible,
43:38 or work with hospitals, if possible,
43:41 to see if we can help with the uninsured.
43:43 To have more people connected through this,
43:47 I want to have a conference,
43:49 you know, to try to connect medical missionaries
43:52 with those who want to utilize their skills
43:54 to reach souls for Christ.
43:55 I would like to create a conference
43:57 to bring us together
43:58 and see what the support look like to them.
44:00 You know, what are their needs, you know.
44:03 The next thing is to create this fund
44:05 for uninsured people so that's the desire
44:07 I would like to do as well as have
44:09 on job training.
44:10 And really make a very professional,
44:12 oh, Lord, you know, on job training
44:14 instead of just me saying, "Hey, God, guys do this,
44:16 you know.
44:17 But really make a serious on job training and yeah,
44:21 and just work with more places.
44:23 So we can just band together to finish this work.
44:27 What advice do you have for maybe someone
44:29 that feels like they might be called to this work?
44:33 But they may be struggling with some of the insecurities
44:36 or some of the things that you struggled
44:37 within the past?
44:39 Well, come on down, we're in this together.
44:41 And that's the beauty about this agency,
44:44 we're a team of people who says,
44:46 "Come, we're in this together."
44:47 One of the things I love about fraternities
44:49 and sororities is that no matter where you go,
44:51 you're always in the family.
44:53 You need a job, you need a place to stay,
44:55 they're always there to help, why can't we be the same way.
44:58 And so I want to create us to be that way,
45:00 so if you say, "Hey, I want to learn something."
45:03 Come on, call, let's talk, let's dialogue
45:06 and see what can we do
45:07 to get you a part of this work in this capacity.
45:11 That's very good. That's very good.
45:14 What lessons have you learned
45:16 through the journey in terms of like,
45:18 you know, starting the ministry and starting the organization,
45:21 like what lessons have you learned
45:22 during that startup process?
45:24 That don't look at the end product
45:28 of someone else's business.
45:29 Like, a lot of times, people will say,
45:32 "Well, Raven, so how many clients have you gotten?"
45:34 And I say, "Well, at this point,
45:35 in the beginning, it was like five."
45:37 "Only five" like, five is,
45:41 I mean, tell the person who's that one that
45:44 "Hey, my diabetes has gone away."
45:45 They'll say "Praise God, I'm one of the five" you know.
45:49 I started to realize that there are people
45:53 who want to see you successful like Wildwood,
45:56 75 years off the jump.
45:58 But then ourselves, want to see ourselves
46:00 successful like Wildwood 75 years off the jump.
46:03 And He's like, "No, no, no, it takes time,
46:05 you know, the beginning part is where a lot of times people
46:08 you don't see what is to do to begin this.
46:11 I will say, for myself,
46:13 I had to learn how my ideals of myself
46:18 hindered the progression of my business.
46:21 I have to know when I'm being too lazy,
46:24 that when I'm staying up too late,
46:26 when I don't want to call myself a morning person,
46:28 how that affects my business.
46:30 That's difficult, so for me,
46:33 some of the things I learned in beginning
46:34 is that perseverance if it's not a part of you,
46:36 I need to take that to Jesus and say,
46:38 "That's not a part of me."
46:39 You know, I feel like giving up a lot of times,
46:41 because, in essence,
46:43 if it's not for me sometimes,
46:46 I'm like, "Oh, no, I'm done."
46:48 It's like, "Oh, no, no, no,
46:49 don't follow this sinful nature that wants to give up."
46:52 Because Romans 8:6-7, says
46:53 that the carnal mind has enmity,
46:55 that's hatred towards God,
46:57 is not subject to as law and neither by and can't be,
46:59 this is of spiritual warfare.
47:00 Yes.
47:01 So yes, I can say all the godliness right now
47:04 and say, "Oh, I care for people."
47:06 But in essence, my sinful nature sometimes
47:08 gets really lazy,
47:10 and don't feel like doing anything and I don't care.
47:12 And it's like, well, it's not about us,
47:14 it's about what Christ is needing to do.
47:15 So let's go back to Christ and say,
47:17 "Lord, you got to help me today."
47:18 And so I've learned to not look at tomorrow.
47:21 I've learned moment by moment.
47:23 I need your help, Lord.
47:25 My sinful nature is keeping me from wanting to eat right.
47:28 My sinful nature is keeping me from wanting to do
47:30 what's right for the business.
47:31 Contact the person to check in.
47:34 I had to learn who I am
47:36 and how I can mess up the business.
47:38 You know what I'm saying?
47:39 Not a lack of clients or not a lack of agents,
47:41 but myself, you know, it starts from leadership down.
47:45 And so I love the fact that you said
47:47 it's a day by day thing,
47:49 you know, we have to surrender day by day.
47:51 We're constantly battling self
47:53 so I have to surrender day by day.
47:55 You know, we've talked about Project 144,
47:58 and all that stuff.
47:59 We want to know how people can find more information,
48:02 how they can get in touch with you?
48:04 What's your website? Okay.
48:05 So it's missionaryagency.com
48:08 Okay. Yeah.
48:09 And you can call on our business line at 423-521-5058.
48:15 Okay.
48:16 Or you can even...
48:18 What about email?
48:20 At project144central@gmail.com.
48:24 Okay. Nice. Yeah.
48:26 So there's plenty of ways to reach you.
48:27 There's plenty of ways. Okay.
48:29 To connect with us. Absolutely, absolutely.
48:32 And so what are some of your needs?
48:35 Our needs mainly, first of all, prayer.
48:39 We need a lot of prayer.
48:41 We need again, I would like to create that funding,
48:45 you know, because
48:47 there are so many people
48:48 who cannot pay for our services.
48:51 And I do have agents that has bills that,
48:53 you know, need to live, and so it's difficult.
48:57 The next thing honestly, to share,
48:59 get our name out there, you know,
49:01 and we need skillful workers.
49:04 Need skillful workers to know that whatever your skill is,
49:07 come, we can work with you.
49:09 But if you truly know natural remedies,
49:12 hydrotherapy treatments, disease and treatment,
49:14 we need that.
49:16 Okay. Good, good.
49:18 We have one more video that we want to go to.
49:20 We want to put that up.
49:22 Let's go to that video right now.
49:32 My time here is almost up.
49:35 Good evening. Hello, my name is Michael.

49:39 How is my arm?
49:41 No, you won't be using your arm.
49:45 Soon, I can call myself a health evangelist.
49:59 But where should I go?
50:02 Where is He sending me?

50:37 Wow! I love that.
50:39 It says let's finish the work together.
50:42 It's not a one man thing, it's not a one woman thing.
50:45 In this together. Yes.
50:47 In it together. Absolutely.
50:50 So when a lot of times people see this video, they'll say,
50:52 "Oh, well, it's just for those
50:54 leaving medical missionary schools.
50:55 So I need to create another one.
50:57 So people are "No no, it's open.
51:00 It's open, it's just, it definitely is,
51:02 that promo is definitely for those
51:04 who are in their schools already.
51:05 So they'll know there's a placement
51:06 for you when you get out.
51:08 Don't be discouraged and wondering,
51:09 "What are you going to do?"
51:11 We can help you.
51:12 But definitely whether you're a CNA or nurse,
51:14 you want to learn more about natural remedies
51:16 and apply it to, you know,
51:17 someone whether it's again over the phone, online,
51:21 or going to their homes, we can help you.
51:23 Wow.
51:25 So you have the over the phone consultation?
51:26 Yes. Yes. You have doctors.
51:28 Yes, and that's something I more do myself.
51:32 And then we have everyone else go out.
51:34 We have those who want to call but I tell you this,
51:37 many people, they want to see you in person.
51:38 Yes.
51:40 They'll pay for you to come out here
51:41 and be in their homes.
51:42 So I've been trying to do the phone call thing
51:44 because of course I can't go out.
51:46 But no, people want you in their homes.
51:49 Face to face connection. They really like that.
51:50 Absolutely. They really like that.
51:52 So and you have all kinds of customizable plans.
51:55 You have customizable meal plans and stuff too?
51:57 Yeah, yeah.
51:58 So we're again, we're trying to work with you,
