Again, thank you for having me. 04:51 I really appreciate it. 04:52 I was raised on a farm in Eldorado, a small farm, 04:57 and something that 04:59 I was always taught growing up myself 05:01 and my two sisters was giving back 05:03 and serving your community 05:05 is one of the most important things 05:06 you can do. 05:08 I'll never forget a statement that my mother told us 05:11 when I was a child, and I'll never forget it. 05:14 And she said kids, said, 05:16 what you do for yourself in life 05:18 is not near as important as what you do for others. 05:21 And so I saw what her and my father did, 05:25 being involved in the community, 05:26 and charity work, and philanthropy work, 05:30 and something that had always weighed heavy on my mind 05:33 was through a childhood memory 05:34 that I had growing up on that farm in Eldorado, 05:38 was about how a couple, 05:40 a little brother and sister were treated at school. 05:43 I always remember the bus, 05:45 getting off somewhat of the beaten path 05:47 and going down this gravel road and stopping at this house 05:51 and a little brother, little sister 05:52 come running out of the house 05:54 and wearing somewhat tattered clothing 05:56 and they were just, they were poor people, 05:59 but they always had an incredible attitude. 06:01 They always had a smile on their face. 06:04 And I actually became really good friends with them. 06:07 Because I was on the school bus with them a lot. 06:08 And we were in the same class. 06:10 But I always remembered 06:11 how they were treated in school, 06:14 because they weren't always clean. 06:17 And it wasn't their fault. 06:19 And I can always remember school pictures. 06:22 I remember this day, the visual and I'm going back 06:24 when I was probably seven or eight years old, 06:26 about a school picture being taken. 06:29 And the boy that was sitting beside one of the sisters, 06:34 as they're taking the group picture 06:36 was leaning over like this 06:37 because he didn't want to be close to her. 06:39 And that memory had always been embedded in me all my life. 06:44 And I always wondered how they did in life. 06:48 So approximately 18 years ago 06:51 the good Lord woke me up one middle of night and said, 06:54 Dale said, I want you to supply underprivileged children 06:57 with new shoes and clothes for school 06:59 otherwise wouldn't have the opportunity. 07:03 So, did a lot of contemplating 07:06 and thinking about how I would do this. 07:08 So I put a little junior golf event together 07:12 for underprivileged children actually, 07:14 that never have an opportunity. 07:16 My children played a little bit of junior golf 07:19 and I went to the golf course at Harrisburg 07:22 and they rolled out the red carpet 07:24 and all I wanted to do, 07:26 the whole vision was to be able to go back 07:27 to the elementary school where my memory had occurred, 07:32 and be able to go in there and talk to the teachers 07:35 and say, I would love to be able to supply 07:37 four or five children each and every year 07:40 with a brand new wardrobe 07:42 that otherwise wouldn't have the opportunity to have. 07:44 And when I say a wardrobe, you know, three pair of jeans, 07:47 three, four shirts, socks, underwear, you know, shoes, 07:50 coat, everything brand new, nothing used. 07:53 And so put the little event together. 07:55 Didn't ask for single donation. 07:57 I just charged a little nominal registration fee 08:02 and a couple of companies reached out to me 08:04 and said, hey, we'd like to supply the T-shirts, 08:06 we'd like to cook for the kids. 08:08 So, put the event together and my goal was to have about, 08:13 you know, I was hoping to have about 30, 30 kids participate 08:17 and hopefully be able to raise enough 08:18 to be able to help those few handful of children. 08:21 And I'll never forget it. 08:23 I had 58 children that first year 08:25 and I brought them all in to the clubhouse 08:28 when it was over. 08:29 And the kids didn't have to keep score. 08:31 We supplied them golf clubs. 08:32 We wanted it to be a fun, 08:34 you know, non stressful atmosphere, 08:36 but we wanted the participants, the children, 08:39 and the parents, and aunts and uncles, 08:41 and grandparents that were there 08:43 supporting the kids to know 08:45 that their participation was going to be able to help 08:48 supply underprivileged children with the new wardrobe, 08:52 so I brought them all into the clubhouse 08:54 and told them what their purpose was here today. 08:57 And then I had some parents and some other people said, 09:02 Dale, why don't you tell me what you were doing? 09:04 Here's $25, here's $20. 09:06 I think I had one person wrote me a check for $250. 09:10 I raised $1500 that day 09:13 and went back to the elementary school 09:15 where my memory had occurred 09:17 and talked to the teachers privately and said, 09:19 I have some, some money. 09:20 Oh absolutely, we have, 09:22 you know, children that, you know, need new apparel. 09:25 So I'll never forget, 09:29 the teacher called me a couple days 09:30 after I spoke with the group, 09:32 and she's called me and she said, 09:34 Dale, see I've got this little girl, bless her heart. 09:37 She wears the same clothes every day. 09:39 She's, you know, it's the same, the same visual 09:41 I had of the memory that I had growing up. 09:45 And I said, "Let's take care of her." 09:47 So the teacher and I went shopping 09:48 and bought the little girl everything she needed. 09:51 Still to this day, don't know who the little girl was, 09:53 you know, and teacher took the clothes, 09:58 was able to put them in, to give it to the little girl, 10:00 however, that she deemed fit, 10:02 and few days later, the teacher calls me. 10:06 She said, "Dale, 10:08 I got to tell you about the little girl 10:10 that we bought the new shoes and clothes for. 10:13 Her first day of her new shoes and clothes, 10:16 came running into my classroom, 10:18 came running up to my desk, said, teacher, teacher, 10:22 look at my new shoes, look at my new clothes." 10:24 So guess what that did? 10:26 Oh, yeah. Wow. 10:27 Guess what that teacher did when this happened, 10:30 when she's in the lunchroom and she's talking about 10:33 the difference it made in this little girl, 10:36 in her attitude. 10:37 Our mission statement is helping build confidence 10:40 and self esteem within our local youth. 10:42 So it became this little bit of buzz, right? 10:45 And so we helped more children. 10:47 The next year, we're helping even more, 10:50 long story short, fast forward, 17 years, 10:53 this will be the 18th year of the clothes 10:54 for kids program. 10:56 We are now helping over 500 children, 10:58 between 500 to 600 children in 19 counties 11:04 throughout Southern Illinois now, 11:06 with a new wardrobe for school. 11:07 That's amazing. 11:09 And it all came back to you 11:10 from that vision that God gave you. 11:12 You know, those are those moments 11:14 when we ignore those moments, 11:15 we tend to miss a blessing that God has put right before us. 11:18 And so the political side is one aspect, 11:22 but transforming lives, 11:23 and these are children, like you said, you didn't, 11:24 you didn't even know who the young girl is. 11:27 But she's going to grow up with that memory now. 11:29 And it's going to be a residual impact. 11:31 What you did for me, I'm going to do for others. 11:33 So 500 children, 600 children are going to feel the impact 11:38 of their lives being transformed 11:39 and they're going to feel, say, 11:40 now I need to start giving back to my community, 11:42 that's powerful ministry. 11:43 Yeah. 11:45 And the correspondence that we received 11:46 back from the schools, 11:48 the social agencies that we work with, hand in hand, 11:51 it's just, I mean, I could start telling stories 11:54 where it all starts to boiling. 11:55 But the thing is, we took the action and that's all... 12:00 And, you know, it wasn't that hard. 12:03 You know, I just had a vision surrounded myself 12:06 with some good people and put this event together. 12:10 And now, you know, 12:11 I have my own 501(c)(3), not for profit. 12:15 Then I actually operated, 12:17 I was the president 12:18 of the United Way of Southern Illinois, 12:20 as well as the president 12:21 of the United Way of Saline County. 12:23 And so we operated kind of underneath that umbrella. 12:25 But we started growing so much, 12:27 like, we need, let's form our own foundations. 12:29 Let's have our own grassroots foundation. 12:33 So we did that 12:35 and now that's how it became the Fowler Bonan Foundation. 12:38 I'm working with my good friend Bill Bonan and that became, 12:41 through Peoples National Bank became a big supporter. 12:43 And that's when he and I brainstormed 12:46 and formed our own foundation and here we are today. 12:49 Wow. Wonderful. 12:51 Let's talk to pastor a little bit. 12:53 Philip, how did you get involved with this project? 12:57 I got involved with Senator Fowler, 12:59 when he was the mayor of Harrisburg, Illinois. 13:02 And he had contacted me, and I had tried to contact him, 13:07 and I needed some help from him. 13:10 I said, "I need you to help me 13:11 with a concert at this fair in the county." 13:16 He said, "I'd be more than honored to help you." 13:18 And so he said, "But I need help from you." 13:21 And he had just built the courtyard in Harrisburg 13:25 and we started having gospel singings every Saturday night, 13:27 on the courtyard, 13:29 and we were just using the city's local talent 13:33 or anyone that wanted to, come and sing 13:35 and we had, we had people that came that, 13:38 well, we had one gentleman that came 13:40 and played piano with one finger, 13:41 and you know, but he enjoyed himself, 13:45 and it uplifted his spirits and changed him a little bit. 13:49 But that's how I became acquainted with Senator Fowler, 13:52 and it's grown into be a great opportunities. 13:57 I was retired and he's the one 13:59 that pulled me back into the workplace 14:02 and making me to work in music. 14:06 And I'm enjoying that very much 14:07 helping to promote a lot of the gospel 14:09 singing that Senator Fowler does. 14:10 That's right. 14:12 Now the one that was at the Marion Civic Center. 14:13 Describe that one was, that was connected with what cause? 14:17 With the foundation. Okay. 14:21 We had contacted a lot of the local talent, 14:24 some of the better talent here 14:25 in Southern Illinois, including you. 14:31 It was a blessing to be there. 14:32 It was an honor to have you there. 14:34 And we had formed this 14:36 in order to help to raise money for the foundation. 14:40 And, well, we had pretty good singing, 14:42 we had a real good crowd and had a real good time in. 14:46 A lot of different pastors, 14:48 they had a good chance to see the people 14:50 that are a part of the Southern Illinois area. 14:53 You know Danny's born and raised here, 14:55 not too many miles away from here, 14:57 and 3ABN is somewhat of an anomaly. 15:00 It's out here and I remember, 15:01 even at the Benton Civic Center, 15:02 when I went over there, when we, that's where we met. 15:05 Some of the guys 15:07 that are at the Benton Civic Center 15:08 right down the street said, 15:10 I didn't know 3ABN was here. 15:12 But 3ABN has been here for 35 years. 15:15 But it was so good to get together 15:16 with different pastors in for the same purpose. 15:20 It was, was it about Heaven's Kitchen? 15:22 I think that's the term you used. 15:23 Yes, it was about Heaven's Kitchen. 15:24 Heaven's Kitchen, that event was to promote, 15:29 to promote the Heaven's Kitchen to get people 15:32 to come and see what we're all about, 15:36 in order to see how 15:40 that we can reach into people's lives. 15:42 And we're doing that through the gospel music 15:45 that was on that program, 15:48 of which he was a part of that event, 15:50 as I said, and we enjoyed your music. 15:54 We enjoyed the music 15:55 from all the other groups that was there. 15:58 The Curt Moore's family and all of them, 16:00 and we reached into the hearts of people. 16:03 And what I found out from that event, 16:06 and I haven't had the opportunity 16:07 to talk with Senator Fowler, 16:09 but there were some people that were giving their hearts 16:11 to the Lord that evening afterwards, 16:14 out in the lobby with some of the ministers that was there. 16:18 I don't have a number on that. Sure. 16:20 But... Heaven does. 16:22 Yeah, that's right, heaven does, 16:25 and it was a great opportunity. 16:28 We have carried the music events 16:31 right into Heaven's Kitchen. 16:33 So whenever that, that the people come walking in, 16:36 the first thing they see is our Maitre d', 16:39 who assist them in finding a table and a chair. 16:43 And they are then greeted by a waiter or a waitress, 16:48 and they're all volunteers 16:49 from different people in the community. 16:51 And as they are greeted, 16:54 they're told what the menu is for the evening. 16:57 It's not a soup kitchen. 16:59 It's not like go get in a line. 17:00 This is where that we come and wait on them. 17:04 We want them to feel very special... 17:05 What's that cost to the people? 17:07 Not a dime. Not a dime? 17:08 Not a dime, it don't cost nothing. 17:10 It's totally free. 17:12 So people come in and as you say, 17:14 you're not just standing in line getting... 17:16 No. 17:17 You have people greet you, seat you. 17:18 Wow. That's right. 17:20 And so, we've gone from the schools 17:23 with the kids clothing. 17:25 Now we're in the food. 17:26 And so, now you have these. 17:28 Now, how many places do you do this? 17:30 I always felt in my heart, 17:33 if I was able to get the foundation 17:35 to the next level, 17:36 you know, with clothes for kids in the almost 18 years now. 17:40 We've never had to say, 17:42 never had to turn a child down or a teacher that had called, 17:45 has called us with a referral for a child or social agency. 17:49 So we've always been, we've always been blessed. 17:51 And something I would like to mention. 17:54 To this day, I've never ever knocked on a door 17:57 and asked for a donation. 17:58 This is solely God's work. 18:00 I've actually had people, one time, I had a gentleman say, 18:03 well, Dale, imagine what you could do 18:06 if you did knock on doors for donations. 18:08 I said, this is not, no, I, you know, it's working fine 18:13 and, you know, if someone would have told me 18 years ago that, 18:17 Dale, you would be helping 500 to 600 children a year 18:20 in 19 counties in Illinois. 18:22 I would have said, and how would we do that? 18:25 That's right. 18:26 And feeding so many people. 18:28 When they call, you know, that we say, 18:30 sure when would you like to go shopping? 18:32 But then as I mentioned, 18:33 I've always had in the back of my mind, 18:35 I would love to be able to have a meal kitchen. 18:38 Not a soup kitchen as pastor mentioned, a meal kitchen. 18:42 And I was in my office one day and a lady walked by 18:45 and stuck her head in my door, and said, Dale, says, 18:48 "I'm not sure if you know who I am." 18:49 "Sure I know who you are, I know you." 18:51 And she said, "It's been weighing on my heart 18:54 to open up a soup kitchen. 18:56 And I said, "Come on in. Let's chat." 18:58 So we started talking and said, you know, her name's Donna. 19:03 Donna said, "It's been weighing on my heart for many years." 19:08 But it's a different undertaking right? 19:10 Than going and shopping and buying some clothes, 19:14 compared to opening up a kitchen. 19:16 And so we put a group together and started meeting and talking 19:20 and I told her, I said, I don't want it to be a soup kitchen. 19:24 I don't want it to be where people walk in the door, 19:27 go up to the line, grab a plate, 19:30 sit down and eat and leave. 19:31 I want it to be an atmosphere, an atmosphere and a surrounding 19:35 that otherwise they may not have an opportunity to have. 19:38 So as the pastor mentioned, we greet them at the door. 19:41 We sit them, we serve them. 19:44 We have entertainment and Heaven's Kitchen, 19:47 Harrisburg is every Tuesday night 19:49 at the Presbyterian Church annex. 19:51 And we created an atmosphere that they don't otherwise have 19:54 and it's great home cooked meals, 19:56 and our volunteer base, it's been incredible. 20:00 We have church groups, youth groups, baseball teams, 20:04 FFA groups that call and say, 20:06 "Hey, we want to come and volunteer." 20:08 And it's about a year and a half old program 20:13 now in Harrisburg, Heaven's Kitchen. 20:14 And then I actually had some volunteers from Marion 20:18 that came to Heaven's Kitchen, Harrisburg, 20:19 and volunteered one night, a friend of mine, 20:22 and he called me the next day, he said, Dale, 20:24 he said, "What would it take to bring 20:25 a Heaven's Kitchen to Marion?" 20:28 And I said, "It's going to take, 20:30 you know, the passion and the desire and the people." 20:33 And so, Heaven's Kitchen, 20:37 Marion is now over six months old. 20:40 So it's been an incredible blessing. 20:43 It's just like anything else, 20:45 you know, where's it going to go? 21:37 And, yeah. 21:39 And it's, how many people approximately 21:41 are you feeding on a night? 21:42 We, in Harrisburg, we feed average around 200 to 225 21:47 and we also deliver to shut-ins as well. 21:50 And in Marion we're 150 to 175 and growing in Marion. 21:56 That's incredible and, of course, Harrisburg not, 21:59 what is it 10,000... 22:00 A little less, little less. 22:02 Right about nine or less. 22:03 And Marion's maybe double that. 22:05 But that's a lot of people to feed. 22:07 Oh, yeah. 22:08 Locally, it's a lot of responsibility. 22:09 Every week. And it's a lot of finances. 22:12 And yeah, that's coming in, 22:14 but that's why when John talked to me, 22:16 he said we need to do something to help. 22:19 What can we do to do this? 22:20 Because this is run by, you just told, 22:23 some of the volunteers 22:25 from all walks of life, people who care about people. 22:28 So we wrote a song one time, 22:30 it says, people touching people. 22:31 And that's really what, what it's all about. 22:34 So you have so many volunteers. 22:36 So we say, well, we're here in Southern Illinois, 22:38 there are people who need clothes, 22:40 and people who need to be, you know, help feed them. 22:44 And so what can we do 22:45 and one of the things we could do, 22:47 as senator was asking you to come on, 22:49 and share this because our viewers 22:51 are great at supporting needs. 22:53 They've helped from hurricanes, 22:55 from typhoons, to floods, to fires and so, 23:00 they didn't ask to do this. 23:02 We're asking you, we said, 23:04 you know, we feel like that the best way 23:07 to tell people about Jesus is to show them. 23:09 Right. 23:10 And so some people as only Jesus, 23:12 say, might see is when they come in, 23:14 and they're introduced to this person saying, 23:16 come on in, let me seat you, or whoever there, 23:19 who is touching their life that night, 23:22 and then they go outside and like you said 23:24 to where you had the music 23:26 and then people out and was talking 23:28 to people in the foyers, 23:29 and people gave their hearts to Jesus. 23:32 So, you know, I mean, these are incredible things, 23:35 but it's meeting people's needs. 23:37 I've always said if you say to Johnny, 23:40 you know, hey, Johnny, Jesus loves you. 23:43 He died for you. 23:44 But you know, if you're not good, He's going to burn you, 23:46 he do all this stuff. 23:47 That doesn't mean much to Johnny. 23:50 But if you say, hey, Johnny, you see Johnny's hungry, 23:52 you give him an apple, you gave him a little bit of food. 23:55 Then he wants to know, why are you doing this? 23:58 Because Jesus, His love for me, gives me love for you. 24:03 And so now you start feeding Johnny, 24:05 you build a relationship. 24:07 And Johnny ends up saying, 24:08 a loving God who cares about him. 24:12 So, people, it's not what we say, 24:14 oh, well, you know, I'll pray for you, brother. 24:17 That didn't help give him any food. 24:19 Right? We'll pray for him. 24:20 Well, somebody else will do it. 24:22 No, Jesus said, go, 24:23 you and both of you and Senator, go, 24:27 Dale, into your part of the world, 24:30 and so that's what you're doing. 24:32 And you're showing them the love of Jesus 24:34 rather than just say, 24:36 oh, you're hungry, I'll pray for you. 24:37 Or you need clothes, I'll pray for you. 24:39 The difference it's making in their lives. 24:42 That's what it's all about, 24:43 the difference we're making in these children's lives by... 24:47 There's no question building confidence and self esteem 24:49 as I mentioned earlier, 24:51 these children are walking into school, 24:54 side by side now with the most privileged, 24:56 with new shoes and clothes on and it's... 24:58 The teachers are saying, 24:59 it's making a difference in their, 25:01 and, you know, in their grades and across the board. 25:05 And I would like to tell one... 25:08 With Heaven's Kitchen, 25:09 I know I'm waffling back and forth here, 25:10 but with Heaven's Kitchen, 25:13 sometimes we have more volunteers that show up. 25:16 And sometimes we need, but they keep coming back 25:19 because they get to experience the mission. 25:21 They get to experience the atmosphere 25:23 and the difference it's making. 25:25 I'd like to tell a quick story about the difference 25:27 it's made in one particular young gentleman's life. 25:32 It's been several months ago, at Heaven's Kitchen. 25:35 I was walking around, visiting with people 25:37 and I noticed against the wall 25:39 on the other side of the room, a young boy, 25:43 around 14, 15 years old, 25:45 with his back kind of against the wall 25:48 and just kind of standing there 25:49 and didn't think it much about it. 25:53 Few minutes later, I see him still standing there. 25:55 So I, one of our volunteers I had come over, I said, Hey, 25:58 who's the boy over there against the wall? 26:00 And he said, he gave me his name. 26:02 He said, "He's here to do some community service. 26:05 He's been sent here by a detention center 26:07 to do some service. 26:09 So many hours, so he has to work some service off. 26:12 So, okay, so I went over and I introduced myself to him 26:15 and shook his hand and kind of gave me a weak handshake. 26:18 And I said, "So you're here to do some community service. 26:21 You need to work a little hard." 26:22 He said, "Yes." 26:24 He said, "As long as I don't have to talk to anyone. 26:26 I don't like to talk to people." 26:28 I said, "Okay, we'll work on that." 26:30 So I said, "Okay, here's what I want you to do today 26:34 'cause I know you're gonna be keep coming back each Tuesday. 26:37 And so you work off your time." 26:39 And I said, "I just like for you to go when the people 26:41 finish their meal, go and pick up their plates 26:44 and throw their plates away. 26:46 That's gonna be your job for today." 26:48 "Okay, as long as I don't have 26:49 to talk to anyone, I'll be fine." 26:51 Okay, so he went back 26:53 and stood up against the wall again. 26:54 So a few minutes later, 26:56 I see where some people were finishing 26:57 and I kind of motion them over and pointed the table 27:00 and he kind of reluctantly stroke, 27:03 you know, strolled over and pick the plates up. 27:05 And that was the day. 27:08 And so the next day, 27:09 the next Tuesday comes in to Heaven's Kitchen. 27:11 I said, "Now here's what I want you to do this time. 27:14 I want you to do the same thing, pick up the plates, 27:16 but I want you to say four words. 27:18 When you pick up the plates..." 27:20 "I have to do this. What are they?" 27:22 I said, "How was your meal?" 27:25 That's all I want you to do. Okay. 27:27 He reluctantly did. 27:28 I had to kind of remind him a few times. 27:31 The next week, we start working on his hand shake a little bit. 27:35 And he was in having to take some specialized classes 27:40 because his school work was really not adequate. 27:44 And fast forward now several months, 27:48 he did his community service, did his hours. 27:52 He comes to Heaven's Kitchen 27:55 every Tuesday night and volunteer. 27:57 All right. Whoa! 27:58 He greets people at the door, he shakes their hand. 28:01 As the weeks went on, I had him sitting at the table, 28:04 developing conversation. 28:05 Look at that. 28:07 And he shows up every, without being asked, 28:10 every Tuesday night, and he goes on, he'll go on delivery. 28:14 So as I mentioned, we deliver to shut-ins. 28:16 He'll go on deliveries as well. 28:18 And he is there religiously every Tuesday night. 28:22 He is now, his grades has improved. 28:25 Few weeks ago, he came up to me 28:27 and, of course, he comes up 28:28 and 'cause we worked on that hand shake, 28:30 he pulled his hand out, 28:31 we shake hands and greet each other with a smile. 28:34 And he looked at me a couple weeks ago, 28:35 and he said, "Sir Dale," he says, 28:37 "Guess what I'm gonna do this year." 28:39 I said, "What's that buddy?" 28:40 He says, "I'm going after the football team." 28:42 All right. Look at that. 28:44 Restoring his value. Yes, right. 28:45 Restoring his value. Philip. 28:47 It's exciting at Heaven's Kitchen with the story 28:50 that what he just told 28:51 because I just saw that young man this week 28:53 and he hollered at me just across the street. 28:55 "Hey, Philip, how are you?" 28:58 That was exciting to me to see the change in that young man. 29:02 But we're seeing change within 29:04 not just that young man but other people. 29:06 Their lives are being changed. 29:08 We've seen so many people come to the Lord 29:12 and give their hearts to Jesus. 29:16 In this atmosphere, not just in Harrisburg, 29:19 but I was singing over there one night 29:21 at the Marion Heaven's Kitchen. 29:25 And it turned into a revival service. 29:29 I mean, all the way to the back they were all singing with me, 29:32 we were singing old songs, 29:34 you know, like just a little talk with Jesus, 29:36 stuff like that, 29:37 songs that they probably grew up with this stuff. 29:40 And it was exciting 29:42 to see these kids and the older people, 29:47 the middle aged people, all of them getting excited 29:50 and turning their hearts towards Lord. 29:52 They've just had a meal physically, 29:55 but not just physically. 29:57 Now then Jesus has stepped in and it's changing some lives. 30:01 It's amazing, you know, you've given him 30:03 the physical food and the principles. 30:05 You know, Danny, talked about it in James, 30:07 if you see somebody destitute and hungry, 30:09 and you just say be warmed and do nothing for them, 30:12 but then all of a sudden the door opens 30:14 when you touch their lives with clothing and food. 30:17 And then Jesus said, 30:18 "The measurement of our religion is, 30:20 as much as you've done it to the least of these, 30:22 you've done it to Me." 30:24 You know, Danny, I was looking at the songs 30:25 and I think before we, you know, 30:26 we have more to talk about after the song, 30:28 but this is a perfect place 30:30 where the song by Matt Throgmorton, 30:33 "Little is Much," 30:35 because we're talking about, you talk about 18 years ago, 30:38 how it started small, 30:39 but now lives have been changed. 30:41 That story is an amazing story about that young man 30:43 who now has found his mission. 30:44 I count now, and my handshake matters 30:47 and my voice matters, 30:48 and I'm gonna now continue to expand 30:50 and feeding people physically, 30:52 and then feeding them spiritually. 30:54 And the song was perfect right now 30:55 and I think we should sit back and listen to this ministry. 30:57 Absolutely. Let's do. 31:11 In the harvest field now ripened 31:17 There's a work for all to do Hark! 31:25 The voice of God is calling 31:30 To the harvest calling you 31:38 Does the place you're called to labor 31:44 Seem so small and little known 31:51 It is great 31:54 If God is in it 31:57 And He'll not forsake His own 32:04 Little is much 32:07 When God is in it 32:11 Labor not for wealth or fame 32:17 There's a crown, 32:21 And you can win it 32:24 If you go in Jesus' name 32:42 When the conflict here has ended 32:48 And our race on earth is run 32:55 He will say, 32:59 if you've been faithful 33:05 Welcome home 33:11 My child, well done 33:15 Little is much 33:18 when God is in it 33:22 Labor not for wealth or fame 33:28 There's a crown 33:31 and you can win it 33:35 If you go 33:52 In Jesus' 33:59 Name 34:12 And all the people said, "Amen." 34:14 Amen. Amen. 34:15 Well, what do you think, Pastor? 34:16 Little is much. 34:18 And that's what we're talking about here. 34:19 You know, it's amazing what can happen 34:20 when we grab hold of a vision. 34:22 And, you know, you find in the Bible, 34:24 there's so many times that the Lord gives people dreams 34:26 like He gave to Nebuchadnezzar. 34:27 He gave to Daniel, He gave to Joseph, 34:31 when Joseph was wondering what to do, 34:33 that Mary was pregnant before they were even married. 34:37 He gave it to Zachariah to confirm that. 34:40 This is in fact the Christ. 34:41 And he gave that vision to Senator Fowler 34:44 and the vision to Pastor Philip Fritts, 34:47 and this vision for the... 34:48 What we like about here's, 34:50 you know, Danny's from Illinois, 34:51 I'm from New York, 34:53 but I've been in Illinois since 2003. 34:55 You know, I'm a staple now in the community. 34:58 And one of the wonderful things about being here 35:00 in this community is making a difference in people's lives. 35:03 And when you see 35:05 that what is done first 35:07 is you care about the individual. 35:08 You know, years ago, I talked about this Apple computer, 35:11 you know, they said, "We exist to empower individuals." 35:14 And talk about that, I mean, 35:15 because somewhere along the way, 35:17 you have to think, "Well, I am a politician. 35:19 I'm participating in the Illinois, 35:21 I'm a Illinois Senator. 35:23 I'm making decisions, politically, 35:25 bills being passed." 35:27 But there's got to be more to it 35:28 than just the legislative side of that. 35:30 When did that fire gets started? 35:32 Absolutely. 35:33 I look back on my life on how things have progressed. 35:37 And the good Lord has guided me 35:40 especially as I've gotten older. 35:41 And I think back about occurrences and statements 35:45 and things that have transpired throughout my life 35:49 that I was guided to be where I am today. 35:53 I feel like I'm a little unique because I, you know, 35:56 I have a foundation and, you know, 35:58 giving and doing for others is a top priority. 36:03 I'll never forget when I decided 36:05 I was gonna run for the Illinois State Senate. 36:07 I went to a prayer breakfast at Herrin for the opening 36:11 of the Herrin Festa Italiana event. 36:15 And I was at their prayer breakfast 36:17 and on the table in front of me was the program. 36:21 And at the bottom of the program 36:23 was scripture, was some scripture. 36:26 And as I'm reading through the program 36:27 before the prayer breakfast started, 36:29 and there was scripture there that just, it hit me. 36:33 I mean, it just like slapped me in the face. 36:37 And I said, "I got to save this." 36:40 So I actually took the program home, 36:42 cut the scripture off of the bottom 36:45 and carried it in my billfold, and I've carried it ever since. 36:48 And that's been over four years now 36:50 here in my billfold. 36:51 That scripture was Ephesians 2:10. 36:55 "For we are God's workmanship created by Christ Jesus 37:00 to do good works 37:02 that's created in advance for us to do." 37:05 That's right. 37:06 God guided me, God gave me that memory, 37:08 when I was a child 37:09 of this little brother and little sister 37:11 running out of this dilapidated type home, 37:12 wearing tattered clothing. 37:14 He gave me that memory of 37:16 how they were treated in school. 37:17 He gave me that memory and woke me up 18 years ago 37:21 to do something about it, 37:23 a little is much. 37:25 When I first, at the first, 37:27 you know, few children that we helped 37:28 all I wanted to do, as I mentioned earlier, 37:30 is help a few children at elementary school 37:32 where my memory had occurred, five or six kids a year. 37:35 I was content with that. 37:39 But God said, "No, you're gonna do more." 37:40 All right. And so, okay. 37:42 "Okay, God, how we're gonna do that?" 37:44 'Cause I, you know, initially, 37:45 I wasn't able to give Him that much apparel. 37:47 But now we're giving him an entire wardrobe enough 37:50 to get him through the entire school year. 37:52 And, you know, 37:54 and to think that it was just gonna be that little, 37:57 it was just gonna be in that one school building, 37:59 and now we are in 19 counties helping, 38:03 you know, as many as 600 children a year 38:07 has been a blessing. 38:09 And people ask me all the time, 38:10 "So, Dale, where do you see this going?" 38:12 I said, "I don't know. It's not my works, it's God's. 38:14 He just guided me to do it." 38:16 You know, so, but making a difference in the life 38:19 of someone else is what it's all about. 38:21 And as a State Senator, 38:24 I represent my district, of the 59th district. 38:27 And you know, I'm not perfect, 38:30 but I make the decisions is best for my people... 38:35 That's right. 38:36 In some moment difficult decisions. 38:39 But... 38:42 it's important, and this is not my career. 38:46 This is just my passion to serve. 38:48 This is it, it is my passion to serve my foundation 38:50 and feed children, and feed children 38:53 and clothe children, feed the hungry. 38:55 It's just my passion to serve 38:57 but it's just been mission that I just been guided to do. 39:02 And that's really the only way I can really explain it 39:05 to do everything that I can to represent my people, 39:10 the people that I represent. 39:12 But make it try to do everything 39:14 to make a difference in the life of someone else. 39:16 That's as important to me as anything. 39:20 That's right. 39:21 You know, 39:22 one thing that helped to attract me 39:24 to Senator Fowler 39:27 was we built a bond on prayer, 39:32 and conversation about the Lord. 39:35 And, you know, 39:37 we look at a lot of politicians out here 39:40 that they do what they do, 39:42 but I can honestly say 39:44 that Senator Fowler is a man that cares. 39:47 He will be in Springfield 39:49 and he'll send me a text message, 39:50 "I need you to pray about this right now." 39:53 Or he'll call me up and he'll say, "Hey, listen, 39:55 this is going on, 39:56 can you help me pray about this?" 39:58 And we'll pray, we take time right now and pray. 40:01 It's not, "Okay. 40:02 I'll pray for you, brother. We'll see." 40:04 It's, "Let's take care of business right now." 40:07 Because he's needing God to intervene in a situation. 40:11 And that's what I love about Senator Fowler. 40:13 He is always open to the word of the Lord 40:16 and to hear from God. 40:18 And he has a prayerful mind. 40:20 But what made you consider getting into politics? 40:26 Wow! 40:27 Funny story is people predicted 40:31 that I would be doing what I'm doing way before 40:35 it was even a vision in my mind. 40:37 Oh, really? Okay. 40:39 In fact, kind of a funny story was 40:42 when I went to, graduated, 40:43 I went to El Dorado High School and I played football. 40:47 And my football coach 40:49 that came out of East Illinois University. 40:51 As a young man, we just hit it off really good. 40:54 And after I graduated from high school, 40:56 we stayed in close contact with each other 40:58 still to this day. 40:59 Oh, we do. 41:01 And in my early 20s, 41:03 Coach Waye nicknamed me. 41:07 And to this day, 41:11 40 years later 41:12 we could see each other at a gas station, 41:14 or grocery store, or at a basketball game, 41:16 or whatever, he is always acknowledged me 41:19 by this nickname Senator Fowler. 41:24 Oh, he nicknamed you that before you became the senator. 41:25 He nicknamed me Senator Fowler in my early 20s. 41:28 And there would be people that would come up and said, 41:32 "What are you up to? 41:34 You're gonna run for State Representative? 41:35 Are you gonna run for State Senate or something? 41:37 Have you ever thought about it?" 41:38 No, no, no way. 41:40 No way, you know? But... 41:42 The nickname pursued you. 41:45 And I had an opportunity to... 41:47 My first elected position was, 41:50 I started a four-year term on the Saline County Board. 41:54 Someone many years ago had asked me several times 41:59 if I would throughout the process, 42:01 if I would consider running for County Board 42:03 and I had always declined. 42:05 I just, "It's just not me. It's just not," you know? 42:08 And hate but they would keep asking. 42:11 And finally the last time the gentleman asked me, 42:13 he said, and I declined again. 42:15 And he said, "Well, I'm never gonna ask you again." 42:19 But he said, "I want you to promise me one thing, 42:21 that one day you will run." 42:23 And I said, "Well, surely, 42:27 I'll consider that, absolutely." 42:29 So and I would always tell my dad this story about, 42:32 you know, he came in, "Hey, I ran for County Board," 42:35 and asked me if I would run for County Board 42:38 and my dad said, "What did you tell him?" 42:40 I said, "No, I declined. It's just not," you know. 42:42 And he said, "Yeah, you know, you got this going on, 42:44 you know, we're farming. 42:46 We got a family business, you know, you, you're busy." 42:48 I'm sure he understands. 42:50 And then, you know, two years later, 42:51 he asked me again, and I declined. 42:53 Two years later, he asked me again. 42:54 That's when he asked me, "Hey, will you one day?" 42:57 And he said, "I'll never ask you again." 42:59 So the gentleman passed away. 43:04 And the person that took his place 43:05 as a County Chairman came to me and said, 43:09 "Hey, would you consider running for County Board?" 43:11 And so that memory of my commitment 43:15 weighed on me. 43:17 And I said, 43:19 "Can I have a couple days to think about 43:21 and pray about it?" 43:22 He said, "Sure." 43:23 This was on Friday, he calls me, 43:25 and I call him back on Monday. 43:26 And he said, "I can't believe your kindness." 43:28 I said, "I'm gonna do it. I'm gonna do it." 43:31 And he says, "Wow, 43:33 I can't believe you call me back. 43:34 Thank you," you know? So I went to my dad. 43:36 And I said, "Dad," I said, 43:39 "I got a phone call and asked me to run." 43:42 And he said, "What did you tell him?" 43:43 I said, "I'm gonna do it." 43:46 He looked at me, he goes, "I'm proud of you, son." 43:48 Okay. 43:50 And that kind of led. 43:51 I did that four-year term and then 43:53 I had moved to Harrisburg from Eldorado. 43:56 And the mayor of Harrisburg had to resign 44:01 as mayor of Harrisburg to take 44:03 because of a conflict of interest in the job 44:04 that he had taken. 44:06 So they appointed a commissioner to take his, 44:09 to fulfill his term. 44:10 And that mayor asked me, 44:12 if I would fulfill his term on the Harrisburg City Council. 44:15 And, again, thought about it. Well, I said "Sure." 44:19 You know, it will be fun, you know. 44:22 And so I did. 44:24 But unfortunately, 44:25 that mayor passes away with brain cancer. 44:29 And so the council asked me to fulfill his term 44:32 as mayor of Harrisburg. 44:33 And I accepted and then I ran in 2015 44:38 to 4-year term of as mayor of Harrisburg and was elected. 44:42 And then there was a knock on the door. 44:45 "Dale, would you consider 44:47 running for Illinois State Senate?" 44:50 And all these memories of everything else, 44:52 my life everything had transitioned 44:54 throughout my life just kind of started spinning at me. 44:57 And it was a very tough decision. 45:03 But I made the commitment that 45:06 when I decided that I would that, 45:10 especially at this stage of my life 45:11 that I would just go in and I would work hard. 45:14 I would run a clean, honest, ethical campaign 45:18 and see how it unfolds. 45:21 And I won. 45:23 Then I was reelected in 2018 to 4-year term. 45:27 Amen. 45:29 And my position was when, 45:32 there was a gentleman assigned to my campaign. 45:35 We worked on a press release that I was gonna run, 45:39 that I had announced, was gonna announce 45:41 that I was gonna run for Illinois State Senate. 45:44 And I put some paragraphs, Eddie put some paragraphs and we met, 45:48 went over it. 45:49 The last paragraph of the press 45:51 release was some really negative statements 45:56 about my opponent. 45:58 And I look at the gentlemen and I said, 46:01 "I need that taken out." 46:03 They said, "What do you mean, you need to take it out?" 46:05 I said, "You're running against a 14 year incumbent." 46:09 You know... 46:10 I mean, you've got to go, you've got to go... 46:13 Go for the juggler. 46:15 You got to go for the juggler. 46:16 I said, "I'm not gonna do it." 46:17 And he looked at me and he goes, 46:19 "Then you're gonna lose." 46:22 And I looked back at him, and I said, 46:24 that I'm gonna lose. 46:26 And I said, "I will never, 46:29 never say a negative word about my opponent, 46:32 or ever mention his name." 46:35 And I held true to that. 46:37 Because as the media kind of picked up on that, 46:41 my statement was, "Wouldn't it be great 46:44 for future campaigns 46:45 that you can run a clean, honest, ethical, 46:48 honest campaign and still be elected?" 46:52 Wouldn't that be great? 46:53 That is revolutionary to be honest about it. 46:56 Yeah. 46:58 And so, you know, I just followed my lead, 47:02 you know, I've just followed my lead. 47:04 Well, we're so thankful for what you're doing 47:08 not only for those of us here in Southern Illinois, 47:10 from the legislative branch 47:13 but also for what you're doing physically 47:15 because you're taking that great gospel 47:17 commission seriously. 47:19 And you, Pastor, for joining in 47:21 and so literally over few years it's been thousands of lives. 47:26 And I'm sure hundreds and getting to point, 47:28 thousands of kids and meal served for adults, 47:32 for those who need it. 47:33 Yvonne and I had the privilege of going over one night. 47:35 I think Tim Parton, someone asked us 47:37 to come over he was gonna play and watch what was happening. 47:41 We were amazed and thrilled when we saw Dale. 47:43 You went to Heavens' Kitchen? 47:45 Oh, yeah. Yeah. 47:46 Over in Harrisburg. He's witnessed it. 47:48 Yeah, yeah. All right. Okay. 47:49 We were over there. 47:50 And so we just watched, 47:53 we just wanted to see what was going on. 47:55 And I felt like I was in a restaurant 47:57 being served in a really, 47:59 it was not a soup kitchen at all, 48:01 atmosphere, you know? 48:03 And I think people were offered a... 48:05 I thought we needed food 48:07 and was willing to serve us too. 48:08 And so it looks so good. 48:09 I almost went ahead and, yeah, but I said, 48:11 "Well, we'll save it for somebody who need it." 48:13 Well, next time you come in, 'cause that's what we want. 48:16 We want people, you know, sometimes there's some people 48:20 that come in, they just look for an opportunity to, 48:22 don't have an opportunity to socialize, you know? 48:25 And it may not necessarily mean that they have to need a meal, 48:29 but you know, we do have a few 48:31 that just want to be part of the atmosphere. 48:33 And we want them to be known 48:35 they're as welcome as anyone is, you know? 48:38 And that's what it's all about. 48:39 And it's been a challenge, you know? 48:42 It's, you know, when you start something like 48:45 that it is different than the clothes for kids, 48:47 you know, 'cause we are basically 48:48 kind of running somewhat of a restaurant atmosphere. 48:51 But we have so many strong passionate, 48:54 you know, people that are committed to this mission. 48:58 And just like clothes for kids started 49:01 with one child 49:02 in one school room in one school, 49:05 and now we're 19 counties. 49:07 We started Heaven's Kitchen in one building, 49:10 one town, now we're in two, who knows, you know? 49:13 It's again, it's God's work, 49:17 and it's one of the most rewarding things 49:20 to be able to know 49:21 that you can have an opportunity 49:24 and make a difference in the lives of someone else. 49:27 And as a State Senator, 49:29 all I try to do is really I love economic development. 49:32 I love going out and talking about all the incredible, 49:35 that incredible country that we live in, 49:37 the incredible Shawnee National Forest, 49:39 all the incredible people that live here, 49:42 all the opportunities we have 49:44 and capitalizing on all the opportunities 49:46 that we have right here, right here in the Midwest, 49:50 confluence of the Mississippi and Ohio rivers, 49:53 the great Shawnee National Forest, 49:54 our great state parks, our great work ethic, 49:58 an area of people that love each other 50:00 and care about each other. 50:01 And well, you know, when times are down, 50:03 they're right in there for you to help you out, you know? 50:06 And you capitalize on these opportunities, 50:08 which is what I tried to do as a State Senator, 50:10 you know, other great things will blossom, a little is much. 50:14 That's right. Yeah. 50:15 You know, a little is much 50:16 and you blossom from that fruit. 50:18 That's wonderful. 50:19 I like the fact that I mean, I'm listening to the campaign, 50:21 you talked about the positive campaign. 50:24 And the thought came to my mind, 50:25 I never thought about it before. 50:27 But sugar doesn't become sugar because you taste salt. 50:30 Sugar is sugar, whether not you taste salt. 50:33 And meaning, it doesn't have to be negative 50:35 to appreciate the positive. 50:36 If we focus on the thing 50:38 that the Lord has gifted us with... 50:40 And now you're in another, been voted in for another term. 50:44 We just wanna let you know 50:45 we're gonna keep you in our prayers 50:47 because what you decide in the Illinois State Senate 50:49 affects all of us. 50:51 And that's an amazing thing I think. 50:52 There are so many and thank you. 50:54 I get so much correspondence. 50:56 You know, this guy's there for me. 50:58 So many people say, "Hey, I just want you to know..." 51:00 They'll stop me somewhere in a grocery store 51:03 where may, and say, 51:04 "We just want you to know we're praying for you." 51:07 And you know what, I tell them, "I feel it." 51:09 Good.
