01:15 Hello friends, welcome to 3ABN Today.
01:17 I'm John Lomacang
01:18 and always good to have my co-pilot,
01:20 my wife Angela.
01:21 Good to have you here, Honey.
01:22 I'm always happy to be here.
01:24 I am blessed to be living in these last days.
01:27 That's right.
01:28 You know, today we're going to be talking about
01:30 things that we don't often plan for,
01:31 namely, disaster.
01:33 And we've been living in a day and age
01:35 where we have medical disasters we have had,
01:39 you know, COVID that's just another story
01:42 all in and of itself.
01:43 We've had earthquakes, we've had hurricanes,
01:47 and today we're going to be talking about tornadoes.
01:51 And more recently, there was a tremendous impact.
01:54 We'll let our guests introduce that.
01:56 But I'm excited about this program,
01:59 not just because of the content,
02:01 but how this team
02:03 has responded to make a difference
02:05 at a time where people are at their wit's end
02:08 have no idea what to do and where to turn.
02:11 So it's going to be a program I would recommend that
02:13 you press the record button if you can do that,
02:16 but if not just pay particular attention
02:19 and I know that you're going to be blessed
02:20 because in every disaster each of us has
02:23 something that we can do to participate.
02:25 But thank you for your prayers and support of 3ABN
02:28 and thank you for supporting us
02:30 as we continue going and growing
02:32 getting ready for the coming of the Lord.
02:34 Now we want to dive into the program.
02:35 Honey, but what kind of music do we have today?
02:37 Well we do have music.
02:39 Now, music today is from Alessandra Sorace, is it?
02:44 And the song is Redeemed.
03:06 Redeemed, how I love to proclaim it
03:11 Redeemed by the blood of the Lamb
03:15 Redeemed through His infinite mercy
03:19 His child and forever I am
03:24 Redeemed, redeemed
03:28 Redeemed by the blood of the Lamb
03:32 Redeemed, how I love to proclaim it
03:36 His child and forever I am
03:47 I think of my blessed Redeemer
03:51 I think of Him all the day long
03:55 I sing for I cannot be silent
04:00 His love is the theme of my song
04:04 Redeemed, redeemed
04:08 Redeemed by the blood of the Lamb
04:12 Redeemed, how I love to proclaim it
04:17 His child and forever I am
04:27 I know I shall see in His beauty
04:32 The King in whose law I delight
04:37 Who lovingly guardeth my footsteps
04:41 And giveth me songs in the night
04:46 Redeemed, redeemed
04:50 Redeemed by the blood of the Lamb
04:54 Redeemed, how I love to proclaim it
04:58 His child and forever I am
05:03 Redeemed, redeemed
05:07 Redeemed by the blood of the Lamb
05:12 Redeemed, how I love to proclaim it
05:15 His child and forever I am
05:20 His child and forever
05:24 I am
05:32 Thank you all, Alessandra, for that song Redeemed.
05:34 It's a perfect segue into our program
05:36 because through the tireless efforts
05:39 of those who come to the rescue of people
05:41 that have faced disaster,
05:43 there is a large component of redemption.
05:47 So let's go ahead and introduce our guest today, Honey.
05:49 Okay, we have Brock Mayer.
05:51 Where are you from? And what do you do, Brock?
05:53 I am from Southern Oklahoma, Ardmore, Oklahoma
05:56 about an hour and a half north of Dallas.
05:58 And I work as a nurse and a paramedic.
06:04 And I have a wife and three small children.
06:07 Your hands are full, aren't they?
06:09 You're busy man.
06:10 And next to you, Dana.
06:12 Yeah. My name is Dana Connell.
06:14 I'm currently based in Lincoln, Nebraska.
06:16 I'm a pastor by profession in calling,
06:18 but a couple of years ago,
06:20 God told me to sell everything and just go where He sent me
06:23 and I met up with GRC
06:26 two years ago at GYC.
06:29 And the Lord after meeting that had told me to move
06:33 and go back to Lincoln, Nebraska
06:34 and teach English to kids in China online.
06:36 So I teach English early in the morning,
06:39 which gives me flexibility for my day
06:41 and mobility to be able to help in communities
06:43 whether in disaster or in whatever town
06:45 God sends me to.
06:47 Okay, we know what GYC Generation of Youth of Christ
06:49 but the first acronym, what is that?
06:50 GRC?
06:52 Yeah, that stands for Gideon Rescue Company.
06:54 So that's the name of the faith-based
06:56 nonprofit organization that has come about.
07:00 Okay, hidden in plain sight.
07:02 That's great. All right.
07:04 Now we have Wils Teal.
07:06 Tell us about yourself, Will?
07:07 Yes, ma'am. My name is Wils Teal.
07:10 I am from Southern Oklahoma at the moment as well.
07:14 GRC, Gideon Rescue Company team member,
07:17 we have K-9s that God has gifted us with.
07:20 I am a K-9 handler, search and rescue
07:23 known as SAR K-9 handler.
07:26 My career if you could call it that
07:29 or my vocation is general contractor,
07:32 so I'm a carpenter by trade.
07:34 But I'd like to focus on the idea
07:36 that you can still have a career
07:38 and be a missionary at the same time.
07:40 I like that. I know, I love that.
07:42 You sure can.
07:44 Meredith Pool,
07:46 tell us about yourself, Meredith?
07:48 I'm also from Southern Oklahoma,
07:50 Ardmore, Oklahoma.
07:51 And I am an actual business owner,
07:55 pet grooming.
07:57 Pet grooming?
07:58 And I am a proud member of Gideon Rescue.
08:02 And I'm also a NASAR K-9 handler,
08:06 which is National Association of Search and Rescue.
08:11 Which, with K-9 Mannie here,
08:14 we're able to go around nationally with her
08:17 and search for people, which is a perfect opportunity
08:23 to be a missionary in the field
08:26 and help many people's lives.
08:30 Wow. Don't forget Mannie now.
08:32 Mannie is somewhere hiding here.
08:33 Well, let's take a shot of Mannie.
08:35 This is Ms. Mannie. Mannie plays a maxi roll.
08:38 She's not the only one but she's in group.
08:40 She's a rescue dog. She's a rescue dog.
08:42 And we'll see some of the pictures
08:43 of the rescue team,
08:44 but let's just dive into this program.
08:47 We're living in a day and age, as I mentioned,
08:49 disasters are everywhere.
08:50 Some of them we can't see coming.
08:52 And you both are in Oklahoma.
08:54 So you're in Tornado Alley.
08:56 And so...
08:57 Now, he's too.
08:59 That's right. Yeah.
09:00 You're fortunate to be up in Lincoln,
09:02 but they come up there too.
09:03 Well, she's in Lincoln, and he's in Oklahoma.
09:06 Yeah.
09:07 But having said that,
09:09 tell us about the Mayfield, specifically.
09:12 The Mayfield tornado
09:14 that just happen in Mayfield, Kentucky,
09:18 and tell us your involvement in that?
09:19 You know, these disasters are unprecedented
09:24 and every disaster we seem to come across
09:27 seems to be bigger
09:28 and worse than the one before it
09:30 but we know that this is to happen
09:32 according to Scripture.
09:34 And in Kentucky specifically,
09:36 it was an unprecedented tornado.
09:39 It's the fastest ground speed
09:41 that they had clocked 304 miles an hour.
09:44 Just to give you perspective, a hurricane Category Five
09:48 is typically about 180 miles an hour sustained winds,
09:52 so 300 miles an hour
09:54 is significantly much faster.
09:58 The distraction is indescribable
10:02 like pictures don't do justice.
10:03 Wow.
10:04 But we do have a picture of what it looked like
10:07 when you had a chance.
10:09 This is a picture of the devastation there
10:12 in Mayfield and that's just in one direction.
10:14 That's just one direction.
10:16 The downtown section of Mayfield
10:18 was just about completely leveled in some parts
10:21 and whole communities were wiped off the map.
10:24 What's the population of Mayfield?
10:26 Mayfield is a smaller town.
10:28 Yeah, it's about 10,000 or so,
10:31 but what's incredible is that the destruction
10:33 spread over a whole 340 some odd miles,
10:36 I believe was the multiple tornadoes
10:38 that that ran through those areas from Arkansas,
10:42 all the way into Kentucky.
10:44 And, you know,
10:47 it's amazing to me that we don't see more loss of life,
10:50 but I believe it's because of God's grace,
10:52 that we don't see more loss of life
10:55 in these tornadoes.
10:56 Wow.
10:58 So when you hit the ground...
10:59 Let's dive right over to Meredith.
11:02 When you hit the ground, you hit the ground also,
11:04 not only with personnel but with a K-9 team.
11:08 Let's talk about that?
11:09 Yes, well, when we go, you know, we're led by God.
11:14 And so, we pray,
11:17 and God leads us to the places that
11:19 He thinks we need to be in.
11:21 We were first in Mayfield for a little bit
11:24 and every place we had been taken to
11:28 has already been pretty much searched
11:30 by FEMA teams and this and that.
11:32 And so, you know, we just prayed as a team,
11:34 you know, God, where do you want us?
11:36 Where can we best serve You?
11:38 So we prayed,
11:42 and that evening, and we...
11:45 God just opened the door
11:47 and we had an Operations Manager
11:50 from Dawson Springs call
11:53 and asked us to be there at 7 am with our K-9
11:56 so we could search in Dawson Springs,
11:59 which is a community about
12:00 what was about 30-40 minutes
12:02 away from Mayfield and just leveled.
12:05 I mean, there was such destruction there,
12:08 there was not much left of that town.
12:10 And, so we were able to take our K-9 team,
12:15 and we were able to search that whole entire day,
12:18 almost 10 hours searching for people
12:22 throughout the day and it was such a blessing.
12:24 This is our first time we've got to use our K-9s,
12:27 and in this kind of situation.
12:30 So God has just opened doors and we have been
12:34 so blessed by not only has
12:36 giving the ability to have our dogs
12:39 but to be able to serve people with them.
12:41 Yeah, I've heard many saying don't forget to picture.
12:43 Here's a picture of the K-9 team
12:46 that and there you are with the second from the,
12:49 from my left, with Mannie.
12:51 Is that Mannie with you there?
12:52 Yes.
12:54 They look like they all come from the same family.
12:57 Special. What a dog.
12:58 What kind of dog is she?
12:59 She's a Labrador Retriever. Yeah.
13:01 And these K-9s are a blessing that we never actually
13:06 were looking for was something that
13:08 God just opened the door and connect us
13:10 with a professional training
13:12 program in Oklahoma Ground Zero.
13:14 And each of these dogs
13:15 are professionally trained FEMA,
13:18 Task Force type dogs that have been gifted to us
13:22 as an organization for complete free.
13:24 We don't pay a dime for these dogs,
13:26 but they're $70,000 worth of training per dog
13:30 in order to save life,
13:32 and what an incredible testimony that
13:34 God can provide the resources that are needed
13:37 and especially in the opportunity
13:39 to reach people's hearts.
13:41 Wow.
13:43 Was it difficult to get people together
13:45 during the holidays?
13:46 I mean, this happened so quickly, this disaster.
13:50 Another unprecedented point about the Kentucky tornadoes
13:53 is that in December that is not a season
13:55 that we see tornado activity.
13:58 And, so yes, it was a little bit difficult
14:00 because we're coming right into Christmas
14:02 and these communities were absolutely destroyed
14:06 and so it was a real testament to the other volunteers
14:08 and the groups and the teams
14:10 that were there to spend their time
14:11 there over the holidays.
14:13 Now, where did you stay?
14:14 Wherever God opened the door,
14:15 but there was a church that was gracious.
14:19 The church there in Paducah,
14:20 the Seventh-day Adventist Church in Paducah
14:22 opened their doors, and they
14:23 let us stay in the gymnasium
14:25 and it was a good base of operations for the team.
14:27 How far is Paducah from there?
14:28 It was about 20 minutes or so from Ground Zero.
14:30 Wow.
14:32 I didn't know it was so close.
14:34 Well, we've gone to Paducah quite frequently.
14:37 The scary thing to think that the tornado
14:39 just was that close.
14:40 I want to bring Wil into the picture here though.
14:44 Being a part of...
14:45 Give us that acronym again, GRC?
14:47 GRC, Gideon Rescue Company.
14:50 Okay.
14:52 Did you partner with other organizations as it
14:54 related to the rescue?
14:57 Specifically with the K-9s?
14:59 Well, with the whole rescue effort?
15:01 How many other organizations do you stay were there?
15:03 Yes, God's brought
15:05 several different ministries together
15:07 over the years.
15:08 We've been blessed with a relationship
15:11 with Jim Ingersoll and 2Serve
15:13 who works with various academies
15:17 and brings our youth into service
15:20 during these disasters.
15:21 So it's very, very special.
15:23 There's also another ministry, AWA
15:27 Adventist World Aviation
15:29 that God's brought a relationship there
15:32 with us together, and has given us
15:34 the ability to have
15:36 aviation at as a resource.
15:42 One more experience as well has been another agency,
15:47 I'm not sure if I'm allowed to use their name
15:49 because they prefer their anonymity,
15:50 but they bring...
15:53 It's a hub for many pilots who want to bring supplies
15:57 and God's put us in a position
16:00 to be the boots on the ground for these various pilots
16:02 to be able to distribute the goods that they fly in.
16:05 Wow.
16:07 Well, we always like to hear testimonies.
16:09 Tell us about Carl Edwards, the NASCAR driver?
16:14 When we were here, a couple of years ago,
16:16 I did an interview with 3ABN Today.
16:18 We had told a story where God had
16:20 recently connected us through Hurricane Dorian
16:23 with a very famous pilot, and at the time,
16:27 we had kept his identity under wraps
16:29 but I had gotten permission to share his name on this show.
16:32 Over the years, we've developed a stronger relationship,
16:35 and he actually is,
16:37 is more than excited to be associated with our team.
16:40 And Carl Edwards is a former NASCAR driver.
16:44 He was a very successful NASCAR driver.
16:47 And a very humble man.
16:50 If you were to meet this man,
16:51 he is a servant of servants and just an incredible,
16:55 you know, you can see how God
16:57 has been leading in his life,
16:58 even before you ever met us.
17:00 But this response in Kentucky was very special
17:03 because, for the first time,
17:05 Carl actually decided to respond with us.
17:09 He has a plane,
17:10 and that was how we first met him
17:12 and he said, he gave us his business card.
17:14 He said anytime you need to go to disaster,
17:16 here's my business card.
17:17 He's a pilot?
17:18 Yep, you call me and I'll fly you door to door.
17:20 And so we've used him in several different responses
17:24 in different disasters.
17:25 And this was the first time
17:27 his plane was under maintenance.
17:28 And so he didn't have that available.
17:29 But he said, "Listen, I'll come with my skid steer,
17:31 I'll come with my truck and my trailer."
17:32 He said, "I'll just join you guys
17:33 and we'll work on the ground together."
17:35 And Carl, he's searching,
17:38 he doesn't quite know exactly
17:40 what he believes
17:42 he would probably be okay with me saying
17:43 he's a bit of a maybe soft agnostic.
17:46 And so he's observing all of these different miracles
17:49 and these things that are taking place.
17:50 And so it was exciting for us to have him on the ground,
17:52 and to actually see the hand of God
17:55 at work in this disaster.
17:56 Amen.
17:57 And we have a picture of Carl and the team
17:59 I'd like you to describe to our viewers
18:00 who are seeing here?
18:01 Absolutely. Carl is on the left there.
18:04 And then Doug, he's with AWA.
18:06 He's a former Marine and a pilot as well,
18:09 Steven is also there next to Doug
18:11 and he's a pilot with AWA and then Mike Merasheena,
18:15 he's on the very end there in the gray sweatshirt.
18:18 And Mike is an incredible man of faith as well that we met
18:21 in Belle Plaine, Iowa on another disaster,
18:23 and he had a crane
18:26 that we ended up using during that disaster.
18:29 And so it's just amazing to see the team
18:31 that God has brought together
18:33 for helping people, rescuing souls.
18:36 Wow.
18:37 What about the properties?
18:39 How did you find where to go? What properties to work on?
18:43 So that's an excellent question.
18:46 We really believe in the power of the Holy Spirit,
18:49 that God has the battle plan all in place,
18:51 and that we need to be submissive
18:54 and surrender to that plan.
18:55 And so we actually don't know
18:58 where it is that we're going to go.
19:00 We don't know where it is we're going to end up.
19:02 We just know that when God activates us as a team
19:04 that He's sending us and He's opening doors.
19:06 And so it really is a faith journey.
19:09 And Mayfield was just...
19:10 There was one place that we got a request
19:12 to bring the dogs.
19:14 And that was kind of our first
19:15 indication that Mayfield would be the place
19:17 that we'd be ministering and then from there,
19:19 the Lord just kept opening door after door after door
19:21 and bringing us to exactly the right place
19:24 at the right time.
19:25 You mentioned about the dogs.
19:26 I want to go back to Meredith here
19:28 because being specialized as you are
19:31 and I'm glad you mentioned the cost of that dog,
19:34 that jacket is very expensive jacket
19:36 he has on, $70,000 of training
19:38 and preparation to do what he does.
19:40 Just give us an idea of how this works.
19:42 What when you come to the scene,
19:43 and you see major devastation,
19:45 in a lot of cases I've seen where they would...
19:47 I mean, I may be a novice in this area
19:49 and I think I am
19:51 how do they start looking for people?
19:52 What do you do?
19:53 Do you just say go and they...
19:56 Well, what we do is we'll grid off a certain section
19:58 and we will cover that bases of that section,
20:01 just so that we're not missing any spot.
20:03 And so we take one dog,
20:06 and we will send her out and she knows her job.
20:09 She's highly trained.
20:10 So she will continue just to shoot out
20:13 and she will search and when a dog's nose is,
20:15 is actually incredible, they have
20:18 300 million smell receptors, which are called a factory
20:24 receptors in their noses,
20:25 where we as humans only have 5 million.
20:27 And the way their breathing system is that
20:29 they can breathe in the odor, and they can breathe,
20:32 exhale outside the slits of their nose.
20:35 So it's not disturbing that
20:37 odor that's coming in all the time
20:39 so they can stay focused and maintained
20:41 on the odor that they're looking for.
20:43 Wow.
20:44 They're amazing animals.
20:45 God just made, built them the most amazing way
20:48 to be able to do this kind of work.
20:50 And so, we send them out and we grid off an area,
20:54 we completely clear it, and then
20:56 we move on to the next area.
20:58 Wow, that's amazing.
20:59 Now that explains
21:00 why their nose is designed the way it is.
21:02 I always wondered, why is it a little flat?
21:04 I'm glad we don't have one
21:05 'cause it doesn't look that great
21:07 but now I know why it's there.
21:08 Who would like to kind of prime
21:10 we're going to see a 16-second video,
21:12 kind of tell us what we're gonna see?
21:14 Sure.
21:16 This video is actually Carl when he brought his skid steer
21:20 and he was so excited to use it.
21:22 And that's what we're praying like Lord find missions
21:24 that Carl is going to be able to be a part of,
21:26 in which he's going to be excited
21:27 because we don't know where we're going
21:29 or where we're headed,
21:30 and so this was actually a house that we're able to pull
21:31 an entire tree off the house
21:33 using some mechanical advantage and the skids too there.
21:37 So he was really excited
21:39 to be able to use that tool and that resource.
21:41 Wow.
21:43 What about you, Dana?
21:45 What was it like for you?
21:47 Well, there's a lot of things that I enjoy,
21:49 I ended up first being on the ground
21:52 in Cambridge shores.
21:55 And then the following days, we were in the pods.
22:00 So when a disaster happens, there's a lot of donations
22:03 that come in and you see the heart
22:05 of people across the nation, across the world,
22:07 sending supplies, non-perishable food,
22:09 bedding, toilet papers, animal food,
22:13 generators, all these things and they come into
22:16 different areas in the community
22:17 that are called pods, points of distribution.
22:20 So you have a warehouse where things come in,
22:22 and they're sorted.
22:24 And then survivors and victims of these natural disasters
22:26 can come in and just get these free donations
22:30 to take back with them to continue to survive
22:33 in the short-term interim.
22:35 And so, one of the beautiful things
22:36 there is that anybody can participate there.
22:39 There were children, there's adults,
22:42 there's all ages and backgrounds,
22:44 just helping people come and we carry
22:48 their containers that they're loading up
22:50 with the goods that they need.
22:51 But at the same time,
22:52 we get to listen to their stories.
22:54 If we're asking,
22:55 and we are listening for stories,
22:57 because we are also trying to determine
22:59 how we can help the people.
23:01 Is their properties that need help still?
23:02 Are their houses needing to be tarped?
23:04 Is there debris cleanup?
23:06 Then also, how can we minister to them spiritually,
23:09 because we carry literature with us to give,
23:11 and we want to be able to pray for them.
23:13 And for me, I was also grateful,
23:15 because I had people when they heard I was coming,
23:19 they said we want to send money with you
23:20 to give directly to these survivors
23:23 and these victims of the storm.
23:25 So you ministered quite a bit, all of you?
23:28 There are so many fronts
23:30 when it comes to disaster in ministry.
23:32 This is really that the appeal that we have is that
23:36 that the harvest is great but the laborers are few.
23:41 You know, people ask us all the time,
23:42 well, maybe I'm not a nurse
23:43 or I'm not a search and rescue handler, I'm not a,
23:46 you know, what can I do?
23:47 And you know, the gospel is really quite simple.
23:50 In that Jesus says, Can you hand somebody
23:51 a cup of cold water in My name,
23:54 and no wise lose your reward in heaven.
23:56 And so we find this through the pods
23:58 is that some of our most powerful ministry experiences
24:01 have actually not been pulling people from rubble,
24:03 but have been actually there in the pods
24:05 in the points of distribution,
24:06 handing out food and water and then asking people,
24:09 you know, can I pray with you?
24:10 And people just, they start weeping,
24:12 they're in tears, and when you hand them
24:14 a piece of literature when you hand them the Word of God
24:16 like they are just thank you so much.
24:18 I didn't even know I needed this.
24:20 Well, you know, that was amazing.
24:21 Calling out to the least of them the Bible says.
24:23 And we saw on the news
24:25 because this is highlighted quite a bit
24:26 in all the networks of people that have said
24:28 I lost my house, but at least I'm still here.
24:31 And then there was a group of people that said,
24:33 you know, our town has been practically wiped off,
24:38 but we are going to rebuild.
24:39 This is home, we're not leaving.
24:41 We're going to hang out together.
24:43 And I want to highlight
24:45 not only was the Gideon Rescue Company there,
24:48 but also who'd like to talk about Heritage Academy.
24:51 Maybe if I get that to you, will you?
24:53 Wow, yeah, Heritage Academy.
24:56 That was a really special experience.
24:59 One, the talent of the gift of music
25:03 that God brought with that Academy.
25:07 Equally, I had worked on another mission trip,
25:12 Ultimate Workout with Maranatha is what I'm involved with.
25:16 And one of the young men that was on that trip
25:20 when I showed up in Kentucky.
25:24 I saw that there were Academy kids
25:26 and in through the door walks
25:28 one of the young men that I was with in Kentucky.
25:31 His name is Cameron Sanders, CJ.
25:34 And it was such a joy
25:36 for both he and I to have united
25:40 in a common purpose without any plans.
25:42 God arranged that for both of us
25:44 and it was just a special deal to serve with him.
25:47 So it was a joy because it empowered him
25:49 to the what we saw with our academies,
25:54 with our youth
25:56 was such a beautiful thing to me
25:58 because the youth were
26:00 at these points of distribution,
26:02 stopping, turning around, they were giving
26:04 inspirational literature,
26:05 they were stopping and praying with people,
26:07 and these people are at the point
26:09 where they're so focused on their survival
26:11 that they don't even realize
26:13 that stopping to pray is an option.
26:14 And so when these youth they're there,
26:17 they're kind of astounded at the age group
26:20 that's there going, hey, can I pray with you?
26:22 And they're like, well, yeah.
26:23 And then when it happens, there's this sense of,
26:27 I didn't know I needed that
26:30 and it touches these kids' lives.
26:32 And it's really astounding each night at the gym,
26:35 where we all slept,
26:38 testimonies would come out and our youth were giving these
26:42 beautiful testimonies of how they were touched
26:45 by seeing how God would work so,
26:48 so this partnership that's occurred to serve
26:52 with the academies with Gideon Rescue
26:54 the way God's put it together.
26:56 It's become such a beautiful thing
26:58 in the development, the spiritual development
27:00 of our children.
27:03 Now you travel with literature, don't you?
27:06 Yes, ma'am. We have on us all the time.
27:08 You have GLOW tracts?
27:10 Which one is that?
27:12 Certainty in an uncertain world,
27:14 that one's by Mark Finley.
27:16 And this one actually is a really perfect tract.
27:19 Just nails it perfectly when we go to these disasters,
27:22 but we give away books too.
27:24 You do?
27:25 Yes, ma'am.
27:27 The Lord's gifted us with
27:28 several thousand dollars worth of literature.
27:31 As we prayed for it we said, "Lord,
27:33 we need supplies."
27:35 What kind of books?
27:36 Great Controversy, Desire of Ages,
27:39 Ministry of Healing,
27:40 Hope for Troubled Times, Steps to Christ.
27:44 What else?
27:45 Ten Commandments Twice Removed.
27:46 Yes.
27:48 And with a pastor on staff, it's good to have that.
27:50 Give you a chance to use all the gifts
27:52 that God has given to you.
27:54 This next door is really touching.
27:57 I think actually these next three or four photos
27:59 are going to be talking about this incident.
28:01 Tell us about the Gaither home, or Mrs. Gaither.
28:05 So it goes back to one of the questions
28:06 that you were asking, Angela, about
28:08 how do we know where it is that we're going to be, you know?
28:11 Yes, yes.
28:12 And Carl was actually with Mike,
28:15 one of our other team members.
28:16 And they were driving around together
28:17 just praying and asking like,
28:19 "Okay, God, where's the next mission?"
28:21 And they came into Cambridge Shores,
28:23 which is a community
28:25 that actually they had flown over AWA
28:27 when they had come in with their planes.
28:28 It actually circled over
28:30 this community and said, "You know what?
28:31 Something's telling us that this is a place
28:33 that we need to be."
28:34 And so they had gone to investigate
28:36 and they were there and they didn't know
28:37 where it was they're going to end up
28:39 with the whole community was wiped out.
28:40 It was a very well-to-do neighborhood
28:41 that was completely destroyed.
28:44 And as they were driving, they came to a wooden sign
28:47 that said the Gaither.
28:49 I think it said rest in peace.
28:51 And this was the only home
28:54 that actually had a casualty in this neighborhood.
28:57 And Mrs. Gaither,
28:59 unfortunately, lost her life in the storm.
29:01 She was a little bit older in her 80s, I believe.
29:04 And her daughter was there at the home,
29:07 searching through the rubble.
29:09 And when she saw Carl and our team she said,
29:12 "Please, can you help me?"
29:14 And he said, "Well, of course, like, we have
29:16 skid steer here with us and how can we help you?"
29:18 And she said, "Well, I'm looking for two items."
29:19 She said, "I'm looking for a safe
29:23 that has all of my mother's legal documents in it
29:26 and I'm looking for a little red camera."
29:31 When Carl heard that he said in his mind
29:33 he didn't tell her out loud but in his mind
29:34 he said there's no way we're finding your camera,
29:37 but maybe we can find the safe and so he said, "Of course,
29:39 we can help you so we began looking
29:41 and we brought the team over there.
29:43 We had a whole plan, we gridded off the area,
29:46 we were looking for this safe actually
29:48 what we were focusing on because...
29:50 A lot of rubble, right?
29:51 The rubble was indescribable in the pictures that you see.
29:54 Matter of fact you have a picture of you guys searching.
29:56 We do.
29:57 This is actually her home,
29:58 there's nothing left as you can see.
30:00 And you had to look through that.
30:01 We'd to look through that.
30:02 And then this is the team here assessing the situation
30:05 and we have the skid steer and you can see there's
30:07 just piles of debris everywhere,
30:09 where do you begin? How do you find it?
30:10 How do you find a camera on this?
30:12 Now mind you we did do
30:13 what was the most important thing
30:15 is we did stop and pray.
30:16 Amen. Yes.
30:18 But there was still lingering doubt of,
30:20 man, this could be a disappointment, right?
30:24 But still, we go, okay, God, if You want us to do this,
30:27 if you want us to find this and again
30:30 we were object fixated on the safe,
30:33 I'm thinking, okay, statistically speaking,
30:35 it's much larger than a camera.
30:37 Probably heavier.
30:39 So we should be able to find the safe.
30:42 We prayed and 2.5 hours into searching for it,
30:46 we found not the safe but the camera.
30:51 And Carl was in the skid steer
30:52 and he literally stopped and he said,
30:55 "Is that what I think it is?"
30:56 And the firefighter that had
30:57 pulled it out of the rubble said,
30:59 "It could be in there,"
31:00 unzipped it and he said, "No way."
31:03 He said, "That's not the camera that we're looking for."
31:05 And sure enough, it was a red camera
31:07 and then he said, "No way,
31:08 there's no way that there are pictures on it,"
31:09 because it's been through a storm.
31:11 It's been through a tornado. It's been drenched with rain.
31:12 Like there's nothing survivable on that camera.
31:16 And so we took it over to where we had a computer,
31:19 and the daughter was there and,
31:22 of course, everybody with bated breath and Mike,
31:25 who was a part of the team as well, he said,
31:27 I don't even need to stick around
31:29 and see that there's pictures on this,
31:30 I know there's pictures on there.
31:32 So I'm gonna keep looking for the safe.
31:33 So he left.
31:34 And Carl, of course, is wondering like is there,
31:37 can this absolutely be, and sure enough,
31:40 when we looked at the camera,
31:41 there were 350 pictures from their family.
31:46 Here's what's so incredible that her father had died
31:48 a few months before the storm.
31:51 Her mother had passed in the storm.
31:53 And on that camera, were the only pictures
31:56 that they had of the entire family.
32:00 They had no photos for the funeral
32:03 and this is a picture, the daughter is in green.
32:05 Her name is Tassie.
32:06 And she was absolutely weeping when we found this camera.
32:10 And it was a powerful moment which we could tell.
32:12 We said "Tassie, the Lord cares
32:15 so much for you
32:17 that He would search all of this rubble
32:18 and preserve this camera
32:20 because He loves you and cares for you."
32:22 Wow.
32:23 And that kind of hope and encouragement
32:25 is what gives people the opportunity
32:28 to make it through an incredible crisis.
32:30 Meredith, you were there when this happened?
32:33 No, no, I was not.
32:35 She was searching with the dogs in another place.
32:37 But it was very emotional, wasn't it?
32:39 Yes. Yes, it is.
32:41 I mean, I'm just feeling that whole thing.
32:43 You have the remnants of your family
32:44 and you're wondering, my mom's gone, my dad's gone,
32:47 how am I gonna make it?
32:51 The pictures don't even tell the story,
32:53 but it still communicate
32:55 what a valuable moment that was.
32:57 Another neat connection in that is one of the volunteers
33:01 that came up from Texas,
33:03 that he happened to live in the same neighborhood
33:05 as this daughter in Texas.
33:06 He's like, I'm going to have to have you over for dinner
33:09 and so even there...
33:11 Divine appointments. It's divine.
33:13 It's a spiritual golden hour.
33:15 Yeah, you mentioned the spiritual golden hour.
33:17 And spiritual golden hour is simply
33:20 a concept that we've seen
33:21 over and over in these disasters
33:23 is you ask the question,
33:25 what is most needful in a disaster?
33:27 Is it food? Is it water?
33:29 Is it shelter?
33:31 Is it rescue from your housetop,
33:33 if you're in the midst of a flood?
33:35 All of these things are necessary.
33:36 But what's interesting is that
33:38 the greatest need
33:39 actually is none of those things.
33:41 Because we've demonstrated this even in a survival situation,
33:46 that you can go, you know, days without food,
33:50 weeks without food.
33:51 You can go days without water.
33:53 You know, you can even
33:54 hold your breath for a few minutes,
33:56 but you can't even go
33:57 a minute or a second without hope.
33:59 The minute you give up hope, you're done.
34:02 And so we recognize this in our human experience
34:04 that hope is actually
34:06 the most important in the hierarchy of needs.
34:08 And so that's what we call
34:09 the spiritual golden hour is that
34:10 when a disaster happens, when a crisis happens,
34:13 the clock is actually ticking
34:14 in which time is of the essence
34:17 to reach people and gives people hope.
34:19 That's right. It's beautiful.
34:20 What about the red phone? What is that about?
34:24 The red camera?
34:25 That's what we found there in the camera.
34:27 Oh, it's a camera.
34:29 Yeah, I was thinking of camera phone.
34:30 Somehow that caught me
34:32 but tell us this disaster is replete,
34:37 pregnant with some amazing stories.
34:39 Tell us about Reed, this gentleman of Special Ops.
34:42 Well, I'd have to pass that to Wils
34:45 because he and I were actually searching
34:47 for another mission.
34:49 We had been asked to look for
34:51 an older lady who was in her home
34:53 and she thanked the Lord was not there.
34:55 She was safe in another location.
34:58 Yes, part of this is scouting out
35:02 other areas having God open other doors
35:05 and we had discovered a couple
35:08 who were untouched as far as
35:10 the work crews that were there
35:12 and the Heritage Academy kids came over
35:13 and started just getting to it.
35:16 And they had asked us to go check
35:18 on this older neighbor, 90 years old,
35:21 and at the same time, we said,
35:22 "Hey, we'll do that,
35:24 we have a two by two principle in Gideon Rescue
35:27 that two of us go together."
35:29 So Brock goes, "Hey, come on, let's go."
35:31 I said, "Okay."
35:33 And we went and realized
35:36 that she'd been taken care of and we looked over,
35:39 and there's a house down by the water
35:41 that you can't see from the upper road.
35:44 Its debris is just scattered everywhere
35:47 and it's basically hidden,
35:48 but there's smoke coming out of the chimney
35:50 and we went.
35:51 It was still standing?
35:53 It was still standing, but it was covered
35:54 and surrounded by fallen trees including the pickup truck.
35:58 The pickup truck hadn't been touched.
36:01 And we go, we should go check to see if they're okay.
36:04 And we went around the corner.
36:06 We couldn't get in through the front door.
36:07 We went around on the back deck,
36:09 and the windows are blown out.
36:11 We knock on the door and out stumbles
36:13 this Special Forces soldier who is intoxicated.
36:18 And it was very difficult to carry on a conversation
36:22 but we said, "Hey, we'd love to help you.
36:25 We have a group of people
36:26 who would love to help clear your debris out.
36:28 We noticed that you have some stuff here
36:31 that could use some work and we want to help you."
36:33 And he said, "I don't want your help."
36:36 He goes, "I'm just gonna burn the house down
36:38 and burn everything in place."
36:41 We're like, wow.
36:43 So, we talked to him some more,
36:45 we let him know that we were there to help him,
36:48 not to hurt him.
36:50 And finally, he agrees to allow us
36:53 to clean his driveway the very least.
36:55 We said, "Hey, we'll get right to it."
36:58 He said, "But can we pray for you?" So
37:00 he says, "Yeah, I guess so."
37:03 So we pray for him and then we get to work
37:06 and then pretty soon our AWA pilot,
37:08 our Marine has a chance to talk to him
37:11 brother soldier to brother soldier, right,
37:13 the golden hour, the spiritual golden hour.
37:16 And here we have brother soldier
37:17 to brother soldier
37:19 and all of a sudden the wall start coming down.
37:21 Reed tells us of his giving up hope
37:26 that he had a rope in a tree
37:28 that he was ready to end it all
37:31 and that this storm had come through
37:33 and had taken the tree with the rope in it.
37:36 He was angry about it.
37:37 The Lord said, "You're not killing yourself.
37:39 I gotta send the storm to save you."
37:41 That's an ironic, bittersweet.
37:44 And so God goes here's how much I love you Reed.
37:46 I'm gonna send some people to you
37:50 who are going to care for you,
37:52 who are going to help clean your driveway up,
37:53 not only that, but I'm going to send a brother soldier
37:55 to talk to you about what you're going through
37:57 with PTSD and to top that off, Reed.
38:01 I'm going to have your favorite NASCAR driver
38:03 clear your driveway.
38:05 What? You mean he knew Carl Edwards?
38:08 He was a big fan of Carl Edward.
38:11 It's unbelievable.
38:12 This is how much God loves you. Amen.
38:15 This is how much He loves you.
38:17 And so, the following day,
38:20 because part of this is doing after work
38:23 and God blessed Dana for her work
38:26 that God's put on her heart is to aftercare,
38:31 you know, meeting these people
38:33 and ministering to them further because relationship is born.
38:37 Well, the following day.
38:39 There were some team members that went back
38:40 and Reed had discovered new hope.
38:42 And the following day, he was ready to help, right?
38:46 Clean BD use, fresh medic bag packed
38:49 and he was like, let me go help my community.
38:52 He had new purpose, right?
38:55 And now God is too.
38:56 I want to show that picture of Reed's house.
38:58 I don't know if we saw that.
38:59 Do we have that?
39:01 That's his house that was drowned there by the water
39:02 actually by the river and that's his pickup truck.
39:05 It's amazing that with all that devastation,
39:07 that those two stayed intact,
39:09 because 300 miles an hour winds,
39:10 well, the 200 or 150
39:12 at that location, it's still there.
39:14 Right.
39:15 And the windows blown out, but then also,
39:16 there's a picture of Reed standing.
39:19 Tell us who's in? Which one's Reed?
39:20 Reed is the one there in the fatigues.
39:23 And this is the team, the Gideon Rescue team
39:26 and some of our AWA partners there all around.
39:28 Is that you in the blue?
39:29 Corey is in the blue,
39:31 and I believe I'm in the gray next to Reed.
39:32 I had some more facial hair at that point.
39:35 And we just sung to him that this is the beauty
39:38 of working with Heritage Academy
39:41 and many other schools that we've worked with
39:44 and the students
39:45 and the power of music, it's a weapon.
39:48 Never underestimate the power of music.
39:50 Put the choir before the army.
39:52 We literally did put the choir
39:54 before the army in these situations
39:55 and the students had come down on to Reed's deck
39:57 and after we'd cleared out his driveway,
40:00 they struck up to him Amazing Grace,
40:04 and his heart just melted.
40:06 I mean, he had never seen a team like this.
40:09 He had never seen ministry like this.
40:11 He had been approached by many Christians before
40:14 and he said, "I have never seen Christianity like this."
40:17 And he said, "What is your church?
40:19 I want to join your church."
40:20 Like this was his immediate response
40:22 after ministering to him through
40:24 service and through song.
40:26 And it was an absolutely powerful moment
40:28 as we were all gathered there together singing
40:30 Amazing Grace to Reed.
40:31 I'm sure you gave him literature too?
40:34 Yes, we did.
40:35 Now it doesn't stop there
40:36 because interwoven with this is the story of Daniel Page.
40:42 The story of Daniel Page was that
40:45 I had seen him working with the group
40:48 and I didn't know who he was
40:50 and I figured he's doing a great job.
40:52 I go and I figured someone
40:54 new must have just shown up today.
40:56 Well, he was down there on that deck when we sang.
40:59 As we're walking up,
41:01 Doug, the AWA pilot and myself are walking up
41:05 and he's walking up with us and he said,
41:07 "I needed that music more than Reed," he goes.
41:10 And he begins to tell me about how,
41:13 what he struggles with.
41:17 He begins to tell me
41:18 I was sitting on my sofa playing video games
41:21 just two nights ago when the Lord goes,
41:25 when something in me told me to get up off the couch
41:28 and go to Mayfield, Kentucky.
41:30 And God brought him to our team.
41:32 And at that point in time,
41:35 I said, "Are you serious about you wanting to do God's will,"
41:39 because he was saying,
41:41 "I want to get rid of all this stuff
41:42 that's going on in my head, and I want to do God's will
41:46 after being part of this service."
41:48 And I said, "If you're serious about it,
41:50 let's kneel right now
41:51 and let's turn your will and your life over to God,"
41:54 and we did.
41:55 I think there might be a photo of him.
41:56 Well, I wanna show a picture of Daniel with the chainsaw.
41:59 Daniel Page with the chainsaw. There he is.
42:01 He put down his video controller
42:03 and got his steel saw, I think.
42:04 Yeah.
42:06 We didn't know who this guy was
42:08 because when you're in a disaster zone,
42:10 you have so many people that are coming and going
42:12 volunteers and team members
42:14 and sometimes you don't know who's working next to you.
42:16 And this gentleman, we thought he was a part of 2Serve
42:18 and Heritage Academy, but come to find out
42:20 he had no relation to Heritage Academy.
42:22 And he was standing right next to me
42:24 when we were singing Amazing Grace.
42:26 And as soon as we got done, he turned to me and he said,
42:28 "That song was for me."
42:31 And so then this whole story tumbles out
42:33 about him sitting on his couch, playing video games
42:35 and God was just like, get up off that couch
42:37 and go to Kentucky and he does.
42:39 He obeys and connects with this team
42:41 and from that point forward, gives his life to Christ,
42:44 you know, kneeling there on the ground
42:47 in this disaster zone, he gives his life to Jesus.
42:51 That is the exact spot where we kneel down,
42:53 we're walking back up the driveway
42:55 in the middle of a debris field and that was where
42:58 we just knelt and prayed and sought heaven's grace.
43:02 That's you in the yellow?
43:03 Yes, Sir.
43:05 That's not even yellow, it's like mega yellow.
43:08 You can find me at night. Yeah.
43:10 I would like to appeal to our listeners,
43:12 though, our viewers
43:15 in that if you feel that impulse,
43:18 that still small voice listen to it.
43:24 If you hear God's voice, answer it today.
43:27 And that's what I want to say because that was how Daniel
43:32 was in that place is because he listened to that
43:35 still small voice and he obeyed it.
43:38 And so, I want to appeal to you.
43:40 If God is calling you into whatever ministry,
43:43 whether it's doing some type of service
43:45 in your very own neighborhood, listen to it.
43:47 Amen.
43:49 Wow, how long was the team on the ground?
43:52 So we had a leapfrog response,
43:56 in the sense that we have team members who come
43:58 for a certain amount of time, they can stay.
44:00 Then because we're all volunteers,
44:02 we actually do have full time jobs
44:03 and responsibilities that we have
44:05 to take care of home as well.
44:06 So it depends on who can stay
44:08 and who can come and who can go.
44:11 And we were probably there for
44:12 a couple of weeks on the ground.
44:13 And then even continuing past that,
44:15 we've sent many other teams back as well
44:17 and other people who have said,
44:19 "Hey, I want to go and help
44:20 because these communities are devastated."
44:22 They'll be devastated until Jesus comes.
44:25 I mean, these communities are completely wiped off
44:27 the map and where do you even begin?
44:29 And so it takes a long time,
44:31 the rebuilding process is a very long process.
44:34 Right 'cause you're talking about...
44:36 You can talk about infrastructure.
44:38 I was just thinking we have someone from our church
44:41 that has been helping in Kentucky.
44:45 Matter of fact he is getting rebaptized.
44:48 He put off his baptism to say,
44:50 hey, I'm down here ministering
44:52 and we sent some funds with him to also help out
44:55 in the various, various different organizations
44:59 that we're having, organizations to help out there
45:02 and he was sharing some of the stories with you Sabbath
45:04 about what's taking place down there.
45:06 We have a 32-second video,
45:07 I want to let the audience have viewing and see
45:10 and then describe to us what we're just watching here?
45:12 Sure.
45:18 This is the moment of singing to Reed Amazing Grace.
45:23 There he is in the center there with Doug behind him.
45:27 In fact, Doug is actually helping with his cell phone
45:29 because he was so excited.
45:30 He wanted to stream it on Facebook Live.
45:33 So this song is actually being streamed on Facebook Live
45:37 as we're singing Amazing Grace to him,
45:39 the students there from Heritage Academy.
45:41 This is a moment
45:44 where you recognize you stand on holy ground.
45:47 And it's that special
45:49 and so it's an incredible opportunity
45:52 to be a part of God's work in rescuing souls.
45:57 Were you there, Dana, part of this?
45:59 Yeah, I came a few days afterward.
46:02 So I was able to help it with the debris clean up
46:04 and be part of those stories in the Cambridge Shores area,
46:06 but then also close to the downtown,
46:09 the downtown was devastated.
46:11 There are some neighborhoods
46:12 close to there that were devastated
46:13 and our team also partnered to help set up a pod
46:17 at a Baptist Church in a little warehouse
46:19 that had been devastated.
46:20 And so you have complete devastation in that area,
46:22 and then houses right next door
46:25 that are still standing, some are condemned,
46:26 some of the vehicles have been destroyed.
46:29 One of the beautiful things of the hearts of volunteers
46:33 just wanting to come in and help however they can.
46:35 And people just coming and contacting the local church.
46:38 We're coming.
46:40 I got a phone call one morning saying,
46:41 hey, we're 15 minutes away from Mayfield,
46:44 8 o'clock in the morning.
46:46 And we have 220-foot trailers full of donations we collected,
46:49 we want to distribute them to the communities.
46:52 What he did not know is that
46:54 just the love and support from across the nation
46:57 that these warehouses, these pods
46:59 were full and no longer taking donations anywhere.
47:02 And I prayed God, "What are we going to do?
47:05 God, You put it on their heart,
47:06 you put it on the hearts of the people
47:07 to supply these things.
47:09 What are we going to do?"
47:10 And so we ended up taking them
47:12 throughout the neighborhoods and just going through
47:14 the neighborhoods and knocking on the doors.
47:16 Do you need towels? Do you need blankets?
47:17 Do you need non-perishables?
47:19 And again, these people also had $25 gift certificates
47:23 for Walmart handing out $50 bills to people in need.
47:27 And so this was just an amazing part of being able to use
47:29 literature evangelism skills to just
47:31 go knock on those doors.
47:33 Pray for the people.
47:35 We prayed for a couple of people that
47:37 really touched my heart.
47:38 One guy, his house had been destroyed
47:41 a few blocks away.
47:42 He was staying at his girlfriend's sister's house.
47:46 And, again, lost everything and I said
47:49 after we gave him a load of things,
47:51 I said, "Is there anything we can pray for you for."
47:53 And he said, "Pray for my health."
47:55 I asked for anything specific regarding his health.
47:57 He said, "I have cancer in my brain,
47:59 and it has spread to the rest of my body,"
48:01 about 30 years old.
48:03 So I said, "We're gonna stop and pray for you right here
48:05 and pray for God's healing over your life,
48:08 that God would have the grace to extend your life."
48:10 And then just another short story.
48:12 A few days later,
48:14 we were still just trying to get rid of some
48:16 of these donations and one of the homes
48:17 I knocked on the last door for that day.
48:20 It was a young girl who was pregnant,
48:22 probably in her early 20s.
48:24 And when I talked to her, found out
48:25 she was about seven months pregnant,
48:26 she'd lost her job a few months before
48:29 her contractions had been going.
48:31 She just wasn't quite sure how to navigate it.
48:33 Her husband had been trying to pick up more shifts,
48:35 and she had been out of a job,
48:37 both of their cars were damaged,
48:38 her cars and so no vehicles,
48:41 and so to be able to unload
48:43 so many things for them
48:44 with the non-perishables and everything,
48:46 and found out that this child is something that they've been
48:49 so excited about because previously
48:52 she had been a 16-year-old pregnant girl
48:55 and had to give that child away
48:57 and her husband had a child previously,
48:59 and it had died in an unfortunate situation
49:01 and so here we are
49:03 able to leave literature about grief.
49:04 Here we are able to pray and give cash donations
49:08 that people have given to give to these people.
49:10 Amen. You know, that's amazing.
49:12 This story is phenomenal when it comes
49:13 to what the Lord has allowed you guys to do.
49:15 I want to also show this 30-second video here
49:18 the before and after.
49:19 And let's just roll that right now.
49:21 Yeah.
49:58 Wow, right to the cross.
50:00 You know, what's so powerful about the video
50:02 is at the cross was where these gentlemen know
50:05 and Daniel gave his life to Christ.
50:08 Was that a cross that was existing there
50:10 or you guys made that?
50:11 No, in fact, that was carved post the experience of kneeling
50:16 and I don't know if it was done by Reed himself
50:18 or by someone else but that was the exact spot
50:21 and it was discovered later,
50:23 which was how I put it poignant for everybody,
50:26 poignant in a good way
50:28 because it really emphasized how much God is watching out
50:32 and taking care and concern for us.
50:34 You know, before we go on our news break,
50:36 I want to just run a little bit of that
50:37 Amazing Grace because that was such a pivotal song
50:40 and what happened at that spot.
50:42 And just before we go out to the news break
50:45 just listen to that song,
50:47 as it just reminds us that God's grace is available
50:50 and present in every situation.
50:54 Sweet the sound
50:57 That saved a wretch
51:02 Like me
51:07 I once was lost
51:12 But now I am found
51:17 Was blind but now
51:22 I see
51:25 Wow.
51:26 You've seen and heard
51:28 the testimonies of GRC.
51:32 And I would encourage you to get involved.
51:35 We're going to take a short news break
51:37 and come back and give two more minutes
51:39 to close out our program so don't go away.
51:42 We'll be right back.
