JAMES:
LIFE Outreach International
is not an organization.
00:00:14.547 --> 00:00:17.650 align:start line:63% position:30% size:38%
It is a people.
It is a family.
00:00:17.717 --> 00:00:21.254 align:start line:63% position:20% size:60%
It is the body of Christ
functioning healthily.
00:00:21.321 --> 00:00:26.659 align:start line:63% position:15% size:68%
The body of Christ is
the only force on the earth
00:00:26.726 --> 00:00:31.798 align:center line:69% position:50% size:58%
that can put God's arms
around a broken,
00:00:31.865 --> 00:00:36.136 align:center line:69% position:50% size:53%
devastated, defeated,
dying world.
00:00:36.202 --> 00:00:37.804 align:start line:63% position:28% size:45%
BETTY: That's what
we're here for.
00:00:37.871 --> 00:00:40.206 align:start line:63% position:20% size:58%
To reach out to others,
to help others,
00:00:40.273 --> 00:00:42.809 align:center line:69% position:50% size:33%
to show love,
God's love.

JAMES: Well,
00:01:05.031 --> 00:01:06.032 align:start line:63% position:10% size:55%
welcome to LIFE Today!
00:01:06.099 --> 00:01:07.133 align:start line:63% position:10% size:55%
I tell you many times,
00:01:07.200 --> 00:01:08.134 align:start line:63% position:10% size:53%
you can be somebody's
00:01:08.201 --> 00:01:09.569 align:start line:63% position:10% size:38%
miracle, Betty.
00:01:09.636 --> 00:01:11.304 align:start line:63% position:10% size:50%
I'm just overflowing
00:01:11.371 --> 00:01:12.972 align:start line:63% position:10% size:50%
with the love of God
00:01:13.039 --> 00:01:14.707 align:start line:63% position:10% size:45%
and gratitude that
00:01:14.774 --> 00:01:16.276 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
I'm watching flow freely
00:01:16.342 --> 00:01:18.344 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
through people like you
00:01:18.411 --> 00:01:19.712 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
so we see miracles
00:01:19.779 --> 00:01:20.780 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
all over the world.
00:01:20.847 --> 00:01:21.881 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
I never dreamed, Betty when
00:01:21.948 --> 00:01:23.850 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
we're giving children shoes
00:01:23.917 --> 00:01:25.084 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
and cleft palate surgeries,
00:01:25.151 --> 00:01:26.653 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
smiles, this time
00:01:26.719 --> 00:01:27.921 align:start line:85% position:10% size:30%
of the year,
00:01:27.987 --> 00:01:29.856 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
150,000 more children
00:01:29.923 --> 00:01:31.057 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
are going to get their first
00:01:31.124 --> 00:01:32.492 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35%
pair of shoes.
00:01:32.559 --> 00:01:33.760 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
We give them a little
00:01:33.827 --> 00:01:34.928 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
larger than they need
00:01:34.994 --> 00:01:36.229 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
so they can usually wear them
00:01:36.296 --> 00:01:37.730 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
for at least two years,
00:01:37.797 --> 00:01:38.965 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
sometimes it goes longer.
00:01:39.032 --> 00:01:40.233 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
This will be the first
00:01:40.300 --> 00:01:41.434 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
pair of shoes they ever had
00:01:41.501 --> 00:01:42.702 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
that doesn't cause them
00:01:42.769 --> 00:01:44.003 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
to get infections
00:01:44.070 --> 00:01:45.205 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
in their little feet
00:01:45.271 --> 00:01:46.506 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
that are not protected.
00:01:46.573 --> 00:01:47.574 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
And it changes them.
00:01:47.640 --> 00:01:48.708 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
Because a lot of them
00:01:48.775 --> 00:01:50.109 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
it goes to brain disease
00:01:50.176 --> 00:01:51.678 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
that kills them.
00:01:51.744 --> 00:01:53.046 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
We're changing all of that.
00:01:53.112 --> 00:01:54.414 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
But here's the deal.
00:01:54.481 --> 00:01:55.615 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
I'm really happy right now
00:01:55.682 --> 00:01:56.783 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
because we're working
00:01:56.850 --> 00:01:57.951 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
with one of our partners
00:01:58.017 --> 00:01:59.018 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
that has helped us
00:01:59.085 --> 00:02:00.119 align:start line:85% position:10% size:25%
do so many
00:02:00.186 --> 00:02:01.221 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
cleft palate surgeries,
00:02:01.287 --> 00:02:02.322 align:start line:85% position:10% size:28%
and that is
00:02:02.388 --> 00:02:03.423 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
Cure International.
00:02:03.490 --> 00:02:04.424 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
What a wonderful group!
00:02:04.491 --> 00:02:05.558 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35%
They have got,
00:02:05.625 --> 00:02:06.960 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
in of all places, in Uganda,
00:02:07.026 --> 00:02:08.194 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
which is a miracle
00:02:08.261 --> 00:02:09.662 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
transformation of God
00:02:09.729 --> 00:02:11.331 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
even in that country.
00:02:11.397 --> 00:02:12.999 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
There is a hospital there
00:02:13.066 --> 00:02:14.200 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35%
that does more
00:02:14.267 --> 00:02:15.401 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
brain surgeries than
00:02:15.468 --> 00:02:17.537 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
any hospital in the world
00:02:17.604 --> 00:02:19.372 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
for all these problems.
00:02:19.439 --> 00:02:20.673 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
And here's the thing,
00:02:20.740 --> 00:02:22.509 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
Betty, it is no cost
00:02:22.575 --> 00:02:24.377 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35%
to the people.
00:02:24.444 --> 00:02:25.478 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38%
They come there
00:02:25.545 --> 00:02:26.779 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
and they get this surgery
00:02:26.846 --> 00:02:28.481 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
for their children
00:02:28.548 --> 00:02:29.782 align:start line:85% position:10% size:23%
as a gift
00:02:29.849 --> 00:02:31.551 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
from people like you.
00:02:31.618 --> 00:02:32.785 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
Betty, we're going
00:02:32.852 --> 00:02:34.320 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
to be able to complete it.
00:02:34.387 --> 00:02:35.688 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
You know we need
00:02:35.755 --> 00:02:38.291 align:start line:85% position:10% size:33%
$1.2 million.
00:02:38.358 --> 00:02:42.529 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
Betty, one of our friends
00:02:42.595 --> 00:02:44.264 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
has given $700,000
00:02:44.330 --> 00:02:45.465 align:start line:85% position:10% size:30%
toward that.
00:02:45.532 --> 00:02:48.301 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
So if we could get $500,000
00:02:48.368 --> 00:02:50.603 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
we got the miracle.
00:02:50.670 --> 00:02:51.604 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
BETTY: It is very,
00:02:51.671 --> 00:02:52.739 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
very exciting to me.
00:02:52.805 --> 00:02:53.806 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
Of course, I love
00:02:53.873 --> 00:02:54.874 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
giving the shoes.
00:02:54.941 --> 00:02:55.975 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
I love putting the smiles
00:02:56.042 --> 00:02:57.043 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38%
on these little
00:02:57.110 --> 00:02:58.111 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
children's faces.
00:02:58.177 --> 00:02:59.178 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
They smile when you
00:02:59.245 --> 00:03:00.613 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
give them a pair of shoes.
00:03:00.680 --> 00:03:01.681 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
But they really smile
00:03:01.748 --> 00:03:02.815 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
when they get the correction
00:03:02.882 --> 00:03:03.883 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
with the surgery
00:03:03.950 --> 00:03:04.951 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
on their mouth and
00:03:05.018 --> 00:03:06.085 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
they get a beautiful smile.
00:03:06.152 --> 00:03:07.220 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
But this is really exciting.
00:03:07.287 --> 00:03:08.922 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
These children, it will
00:03:08.988 --> 00:03:10.356 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
save many of their lives.
00:03:10.423 --> 00:03:11.591 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
Their mothers will be
00:03:11.658 --> 00:03:12.992 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
so excited to know that
00:03:13.059 --> 00:03:14.894 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
their baby will grow up
00:03:14.961 --> 00:03:16.262 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
because of the surgery
00:03:16.329 --> 00:03:17.597 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
opportunity, James.
00:03:17.664 --> 00:03:18.765 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
And just to expand
00:03:18.831 --> 00:03:20.833 align:start line:85% position:10% size:33%
our outreach.
00:03:20.900 --> 00:03:21.935 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
You've been so blessed,
00:03:22.001 --> 00:03:23.403 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
I know, by giving the shoes
00:03:23.469 --> 00:03:24.504 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38%
and the smiles.
00:03:24.571 --> 00:03:25.572 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
I know you will look
00:03:25.638 --> 00:03:26.639 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
at this as a great
00:03:26.706 --> 00:03:28.474 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
opportunity to save
00:03:28.541 --> 00:03:29.542 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
the lives of children
00:03:29.609 --> 00:03:30.977 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
through brain surgery.
00:03:31.044 --> 00:03:32.579 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
JAMES: Well, sometimes
00:03:32.645 --> 00:03:33.713 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
it is water on the brain.
00:03:33.780 --> 00:03:34.781 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35%
There are many
00:03:34.847 --> 00:03:36.215 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
other things that happen.
00:03:36.282 --> 00:03:38.618 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
But imagine, more surgeries
00:03:38.685 --> 00:03:40.687 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
there of this type
00:03:40.753 --> 00:03:42.455 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
than anywhere in the world.
00:03:42.522 --> 00:03:44.624 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
Do you know what I believe?
00:03:44.691 --> 00:03:46.192 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
Just like God raised up
00:03:46.259 --> 00:03:47.794 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35%
that person --
00:03:47.860 --> 00:03:48.861 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
thank you, Lord --
00:03:48.928 --> 00:03:51.130 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
that gave $700,000,
00:03:51.197 --> 00:03:52.231 align:start line:58% position:10% size:43%
do you understand
00:03:52.298 --> 00:03:54.534 align:start line:58% position:10% size:40%
if you gave $100
00:03:54.601 --> 00:03:58.237 align:start line:58% position:10% size:55%
or $1,000 that's huge?
00:03:58.304 --> 00:04:00.640 align:start line:58% position:10% size:73%
That can make the difference.
00:04:00.707 --> 00:04:02.141 align:start line:58% position:10% size:60%
You know 500 people give
00:04:02.208 --> 00:04:03.843 align:start line:58% position:10% size:45%
$1,000 we have got
00:04:03.910 --> 00:04:05.645 align:start line:58% position:10% size:38%
the rest of it.
00:04:05.712 --> 00:04:08.548 align:start line:58% position:10% size:65%
But many people give $100.
00:04:08.615 --> 00:04:10.249 align:start line:58% position:10% size:48%
Most of our support
00:04:10.316 --> 00:04:11.818 align:start line:58% position:10% size:43%
comes from people
00:04:11.884 --> 00:04:14.220 align:start line:58% position:10% size:65%
who give gifts under $100.
00:04:14.287 --> 00:04:15.555 align:start line:58% position:10% size:43%
Thank God for all
00:04:15.622 --> 00:04:17.123 align:start line:58% position:10% size:38%
the $100 givers
00:04:17.190 --> 00:04:18.458 align:start line:58% position:10% size:55%
and the $1,000 givers,
00:04:18.524 --> 00:04:19.726 align:start line:58% position:10% size:48%
and the people that
00:04:19.792 --> 00:04:21.127 align:start line:58% position:10% size:45%
drill a water well
00:04:21.194 --> 00:04:22.829 align:start line:58% position:10% size:55%
and pay for all of it.
00:04:22.895 --> 00:04:23.863 align:start line:58% position:10% size:43%
I don't know what
00:04:23.930 --> 00:04:25.298 align:start line:58% position:10% size:45%
you can do to help
00:04:25.365 --> 00:04:27.400 align:start line:58% position:10% size:40%
with these shoes
00:04:27.467 --> 00:04:29.869 align:start line:58% position:10% size:40%
and these smiles
00:04:29.936 --> 00:04:31.537 align:start line:58% position:10% size:55%
and the brain surgery,
00:04:31.604 --> 00:04:33.139 align:start line:58% position:10% size:53%
however it is needed,
00:04:33.206 --> 00:04:34.941 align:start line:58% position:10% size:33%
with no cost.
00:04:35.008 --> 00:04:36.075 align:start line:58% position:10% size:43%
That is true with
00:04:36.142 --> 00:04:37.777 align:start line:58% position:10% size:60%
the cleft palate surgery
00:04:37.844 --> 00:04:39.612 align:start line:58% position:10% size:68%
and the shoes we give them.
00:04:39.679 --> 00:04:42.782 align:start line:58% position:10% size:60%
It's all a gift of love.
00:04:42.849 --> 00:04:44.384 align:start line:58% position:10% size:45%
God's love through
00:04:44.450 --> 00:04:46.185 align:start line:58% position:10% size:28%
his family.
00:04:46.252 --> 00:04:48.421 align:start line:58% position:10% size:63%
Please let's keep putting
00:04:48.488 --> 00:04:50.590 align:start line:58% position:10% size:63%
his arms around the world
00:04:50.657 --> 00:04:52.525 align:start line:58% position:10% size:40%
he loves so much
00:04:52.592 --> 00:04:54.427 align:start line:58% position:10% size:40%
and gave his son
00:04:54.494 --> 00:04:56.763 align:start line:58% position:10% size:48%
to save, to redeem.
00:04:56.829 --> 00:04:59.098 align:start line:58% position:10% size:70%
Would you be a part of this?
00:04:59.165 --> 00:05:01.267 align:start line:58% position:10% size:40%
I ask you to be.
00:05:01.334 --> 00:05:02.869 align:start line:58% position:10% size:60%
I want you to watch this
00:05:02.935 --> 00:05:04.804 align:start line:58% position:10% size:50%
very prayerfully and
00:05:04.871 --> 00:05:08.041 align:start line:58% position:10% size:50%
let God speak to you
00:05:08.107 --> 00:05:10.343 align:start line:58% position:10% size:63%
about his will concerning
00:05:10.410 --> 00:05:12.445 align:start line:58% position:10% size:70%
this challenge, which I see,
00:05:12.512 --> 00:05:15.415 align:start line:58% position:10% size:60%
Betty, as an opportunity
00:05:15.481 --> 00:05:17.750 align:start line:58% position:10% size:55%
more than a challenge.
00:05:21.387 --> 00:05:23.656 align:start line:79% position:18% size:63%
JOHN: I'm here in Uganda,
standing in what is going
00:05:23.723 --> 00:05:25.992 align:center line:58% position:50% size:50%
to be operation room
number three
00:05:26.059 --> 00:05:27.994 align:center line:58% position:50% size:40%
in the brand-new
surgical center
00:05:28.061 --> 00:05:29.996 align:center line:58% position:50% size:50%
that we are building
in partnership
00:05:30.063 --> 00:05:32.265 align:center line:79% position:50% size:63%
with our mission partners
here in Uganda.
00:05:32.331 --> 00:05:34.400 align:start line:79% position:23% size:53%
Specifically designed
to treat
00:05:34.467 --> 00:05:36.736 align:center line:79% position:50% size:50%
neurological disease
in children,
00:05:36.803 --> 00:05:39.205 align:center line:79% position:50% size:43%
more than 2,000
surgeries a year,
00:05:39.272 --> 00:05:42.308 align:center line:79% position:50% size:55%
more than any hospital
in the world,
00:05:42.375 --> 00:05:44.410 align:center line:79% position:50% size:53%
it is going to happen
right here.
00:05:44.477 --> 00:05:46.813 align:start line:79% position:20% size:60%
For many families
in developing countries,
00:05:46.879 --> 00:05:49.048 align:center line:79% position:50% size:63%
a child born with
a neurological disability
00:05:49.115 --> 00:05:51.350 align:center line:79% position:50% size:38%
has little hope
to survive,
00:05:51.417 --> 00:05:54.087 align:center line:79% position:50% size:55%
largely due to a lack
of facilities or funds
00:05:54.153 --> 00:05:56.289 align:center line:79% position:50% size:50%
to get the proper
treatment they need.
00:05:56.355 --> 00:05:58.291 align:start line:79% position:20% size:60%
That's why LIFE Outreach
has joined
00:05:58.357 --> 00:06:00.293 align:center line:79% position:50% size:50%
with mission partner
Cure International
00:06:00.359 --> 00:06:03.296 align:center line:79% position:50% size:68%
in building a brand-new
neurological surgery center
00:06:03.362 --> 00:06:06.432 align:center line:79% position:50% size:73%
that will provide expert care
and life-saving surgery
00:06:06.499 --> 00:06:08.434 align:center line:79% position:50% size:40%
at no cost
to the families.
00:06:08.501 --> 00:06:10.470 align:start line:79% position:23% size:53%
This state-of-the-art
treatment center
00:06:10.536 --> 00:06:12.472 align:center line:79% position:50% size:75%
isn't just about
operating rooms and equipment,
00:06:12.538 --> 00:06:14.474 align:center line:85% position:50% size:45%
it will save lives
00:06:14.540 --> 00:06:17.043 align:center line:79% position:50% size:53%
while providing hope,
love, and dignity
00:06:17.110 --> 00:06:19.278 align:center line:79% position:50% size:70%
for children suffering
from neurological conditions
00:06:19.345 --> 00:06:22.782 align:center line:74% position:50% size:45%
like spina bifida,
hydrocephalus,
and brain tumors.
00:06:22.849 --> 00:06:24.784 align:center line:79% position:50% size:40%
Without surgical
intervention,
00:06:24.851 --> 00:06:26.786 align:center line:79% position:50% size:58%
these conditions
can be a death sentence
00:06:26.853 --> 00:06:28.788 align:center line:79% position:50% size:35%
for those most
vulnerable.
00:06:28.855 --> 00:06:31.090 align:start line:79% position:18% size:63%
Yet with access
to specialized treatment,
00:06:31.157 --> 00:06:33.426 align:center line:79% position:50% size:43%
these children
can defy the odds
00:06:33.493 --> 00:06:35.895 align:center line:79% position:50% size:53%
and continue to grow,
play, and learn
00:06:35.962 --> 00:06:38.798 align:center line:85% position:50% size:58%
as all children should.
00:06:38.865 --> 00:06:40.800 align:start line:79% position:13% size:75%
JOHN: Listen!
We do so many wonderful things
00:06:40.867 --> 00:06:42.802 align:center line:79% position:50% size:43%
through Christmas
Shoes and Smiles,
00:06:42.869 --> 00:06:44.871 align:center line:79% position:50% size:43%
but this facility
specifically
00:06:44.937 --> 00:06:47.540 align:center line:79% position:50% size:68%
is the difference between
life and death for children
00:06:47.607 --> 00:06:51.911 align:center line:79% position:50% size:70%
who have severe
but repairable disabilities.
00:06:51.978 --> 00:06:53.913 align:start line:79% position:30% size:40%
I can't say
thank you enough
00:06:53.980 --> 00:06:56.783 align:center line:79% position:50% size:60%
for spreading the gospel
through word and deed.
00:06:56.849 --> 00:06:59.252 align:start line:85% position:33% size:35%
God bless you.
00:07:01.921 --> 00:07:04.357 align:start line:63% position:10% size:55%
JAMES: Can you imagine
00:07:04.423 --> 00:07:07.326 align:start line:63% position:10% size:63%
what it means to a parent
00:07:07.393 --> 00:07:09.095 align:start line:63% position:10% size:73%
if they've seen another child
00:07:09.162 --> 00:07:10.963 align:start line:63% position:10% size:60%
that went to this center
00:07:11.030 --> 00:07:15.134 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
and got an amazing miracle
00:07:15.201 --> 00:07:17.270 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38%
for their brain
00:07:17.336 --> 00:07:19.305 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38%
and got a life?
00:07:19.372 --> 00:07:20.673 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
And then for them
00:07:20.740 --> 00:07:22.041 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
to be able to go and
00:07:22.108 --> 00:07:23.242 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
Betty, it's at no cost --
00:07:23.309 --> 00:07:24.544 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
BETTY: It is at no cost
00:07:24.610 --> 00:07:25.812 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35%
to the family!
00:07:25.878 --> 00:07:27.013 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
That's got to put
00:07:27.079 --> 00:07:28.781 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
a big smile on their face.
00:07:28.848 --> 00:07:29.949 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
We know what costs can be
00:07:30.016 --> 00:07:31.184 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
like on medical bills
00:07:31.250 --> 00:07:32.285 align:start line:85% position:10% size:23%
and such.
00:07:32.351 --> 00:07:33.519 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
JAMES: Absolutely.
00:07:33.586 --> 00:07:34.787 align:start line:85% position:10% size:30%
It just puts
00:07:34.854 --> 00:07:35.888 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
an indescribable smile
00:07:35.955 --> 00:07:37.156 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
over my whole being.
00:07:37.223 --> 00:07:38.424 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
The thing about it is
00:07:38.491 --> 00:07:39.592 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38%
it's God's love
00:07:39.659 --> 00:07:41.227 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
in his people that
00:07:41.294 --> 00:07:44.797 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
provides these miracles.
00:07:44.864 --> 00:07:46.265 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
I'm just so grateful --
00:07:46.332 --> 00:07:48.801 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
so very, very grateful!
00:07:48.868 --> 00:07:50.403 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
Betty, I'm looking at
00:07:50.469 --> 00:07:51.771 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
a picture of the sign that
00:07:51.838 --> 00:07:53.272 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
is going with the hospital
00:07:53.339 --> 00:07:54.841 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
that we've joined
00:07:54.907 --> 00:07:56.075 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
with Cure International
00:07:56.142 --> 00:07:57.643 align:start line:85% position:10% size:30%
and it says,
00:07:57.710 --> 00:07:59.378 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
"In partnership with
00:07:59.445 --> 00:08:01.747 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
LIFE Outreach International."
00:08:01.814 --> 00:08:04.116 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
LIFE Outreach International
00:08:04.183 --> 00:08:06.018 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
is not an organization.
00:08:06.085 --> 00:08:07.553 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38%
It is a people.
00:08:07.620 --> 00:08:09.288 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38%
It is a family.
00:08:09.355 --> 00:08:10.823 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
It's the body of Christ
00:08:10.890 --> 00:08:12.825 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
functioning healthily.
00:08:12.892 --> 00:08:14.026 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
As I've said over and over,
00:08:14.093 --> 00:08:15.094 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
and I don't think I can
00:08:15.161 --> 00:08:16.562 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
say it any better,
00:08:16.629 --> 00:08:18.164 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
the body of Christ is
00:08:18.231 --> 00:08:21.500 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
the only force on the earth
00:08:21.567 --> 00:08:24.604 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
that can put God's arms
00:08:24.670 --> 00:08:27.940 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
around a broken devastated,
00:08:28.007 --> 00:08:31.043 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
defeated, dying world.
00:08:31.110 --> 00:08:32.445 align:start line:85% position:10% size:28%
But we can.
00:08:32.511 --> 00:08:33.946 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
Betty, I don't know
00:08:34.013 --> 00:08:35.314 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
any people who do it
00:08:35.381 --> 00:08:37.516 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
more beautifully
00:08:37.583 --> 00:08:39.252 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
and faithfully, and in
00:08:39.318 --> 00:08:41.554 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
many instances, sacrificially
00:08:41.621 --> 00:08:42.955 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
than our viewers.
00:08:43.022 --> 00:08:44.056 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
BETTY: We're so grateful
00:08:44.123 --> 00:08:45.358 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
for you and your heart
00:08:45.424 --> 00:08:46.926 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
for helping children,
00:08:46.993 --> 00:08:48.327 align:start line:85% position:10% size:28%
all people.
00:08:48.661 --> 00:08:49.962 align:start line:10% position:10% size:45%
Thank you so much.
00:08:50.029 --> 00:08:51.697 align:start line:10% position:10% size:60%
It means so much to them
00:08:51.764 --> 00:08:53.633 align:start line:10% position:10% size:68%
and it means so much to us.
00:08:53.699 --> 00:08:55.835 align:start line:10% position:10% size:68%
That's what we're here for,
00:08:55.902 --> 00:08:57.236 align:start line:10% position:10% size:58%
to reach out to others,
00:08:57.303 --> 00:08:58.337 align:start line:10% position:10% size:38%
to help others.
00:08:58.404 --> 00:09:00.539 align:start line:10% position:10% size:63%
To show love, God's love;
00:09:00.606 --> 00:09:02.008 align:start line:10% position:10% size:70%
they do get that too, James.
00:09:02.074 --> 00:09:03.042 align:start line:10% position:10% size:20%
They get
00:09:03.109 --> 00:09:04.543 align:start line:10% position:10% size:63%
the spiritual side of it.
00:09:04.610 --> 00:09:06.579 align:start line:10% position:10% size:45%
They know that God
00:09:06.646 --> 00:09:08.581 align:start line:10% position:10% size:58%
is the great physician.
00:09:08.648 --> 00:09:10.283 align:start line:10% position:10% size:43%
Thank you so much
00:09:10.349 --> 00:09:11.550 align:start line:10% position:10% size:43%
for being excited
00:09:11.617 --> 00:09:13.085 align:start line:10% position:10% size:48%
along with us about
00:09:13.152 --> 00:09:14.887 align:start line:10% position:10% size:50%
this new opportunity
00:09:14.954 --> 00:09:16.422 align:start line:10% position:10% size:55%
of the surgical center
00:09:16.489 --> 00:09:17.890 align:start line:10% position:10% size:58%
and saving the lives of
00:09:17.957 --> 00:09:19.859 align:start line:10% position:10% size:68%
these precious little ones.
00:09:19.926 --> 00:09:21.327 align:start line:10% position:10% size:58%
JAMES: I'm looking down
00:09:21.394 --> 00:09:22.461 align:start line:10% position:10% size:53%
right now not only at
00:09:22.528 --> 00:09:24.230 align:start line:10% position:10% size:63%
that picture of the sign,
00:09:24.297 --> 00:09:25.364 align:start line:10% position:10% size:35%
I'm looking at
00:09:25.431 --> 00:09:27.199 align:start line:10% position:10% size:63%
this little crystal shoe.
00:09:27.266 --> 00:09:28.367 align:start line:10% position:10% size:48%
This is what we say
00:09:28.434 --> 00:09:29.635 align:start line:10% position:10% size:38%
thank you with.
00:09:29.702 --> 00:09:30.836 align:start line:10% position:10% size:45%
This is hanging on
00:09:30.903 --> 00:09:32.038 align:start line:10% position:10% size:68%
Christmas trees everywhere.
00:09:32.104 --> 00:09:33.205 align:start line:10% position:10% size:35%
And this year,
00:09:33.272 --> 00:09:34.373 align:start line:10% position:10% size:43%
we're sending you
00:09:34.440 --> 00:09:35.641 align:start line:10% position:10% size:40%
different colors
00:09:35.708 --> 00:09:36.809 align:start line:10% position:10% size:43%
in four crystals.
00:09:36.876 --> 00:09:38.210 align:start line:10% position:10% size:70%
Betty, we let everybody know
00:09:38.277 --> 00:09:40.813 align:start line:10% position:10% size:63%
we give Shoes and Smiles.
00:09:40.880 --> 00:09:42.415 align:start line:10% position:10% size:58%
I remember when you saw
00:09:42.481 --> 00:09:43.616 align:start line:10% position:10% size:53%
this story, you said,
00:09:43.683 --> 00:09:45.584 align:start line:10% position:10% size:75%
"James, this is unbelievable!"
00:09:45.651 --> 00:09:46.786 align:start line:10% position:10% size:48%
I want you to watch
00:09:46.852 --> 00:09:49.522 align:start line:10% position:10% size:75%
what happened to a little girl
00:09:49.588 --> 00:09:50.623 align:start line:10% position:10% size:45%
that really needed
00:09:50.690 --> 00:09:53.192 align:start line:10% position:10% size:53%
cleft palate surgery.
00:09:53.259 --> 00:09:56.829 align:start line:10% position:10% size:73%
I want you to see the impact,
00:09:56.896 --> 00:09:59.598 align:start line:10% position:10% size:58%
a miracle of God's love
00:09:59.665 --> 00:10:01.500 align:start line:10% position:10% size:35%
shared by you.
00:10:03.169 --> 00:10:05.504 align:start line:79% position:25% size:50%
JOHN: So we are here
in Angola
00:10:05.571 --> 00:10:09.408 align:center line:58% position:40% size:58%
on the way to a village
where Victorina has had
00:10:09.475 --> 00:10:13.346 align:center line:58% position:43% size:63%
a life transformation
through Christmas Smiles.
00:10:13.412 --> 00:10:15.414 align:start line:79% position:20% size:58%
We're talking about
a beautiful little girl
00:10:15.481 --> 00:10:18.684 align:center line:79% position:50% size:68%
who was born with
such a tragic cleft palate,
00:10:18.751 --> 00:10:20.820 align:center line:79% position:50% size:40%
one of the worst
I'd ever seen,
00:10:20.886 --> 00:10:23.356 align:center line:79% position:50% size:48%
that's been
a two-year endeavor
00:10:23.422 --> 00:10:26.459 align:center line:79% position:50% size:48%
that has been with
many ups and downs.
00:10:26.525 --> 00:10:28.527 align:center line:79% position:50% size:40%
She was
so malnourished.
00:10:28.594 --> 00:10:32.198 align:start line:79% position:18% size:65%
She had wounds on her body
that were so infected.
00:10:32.264 --> 00:10:35.568 align:start line:79% position:15% size:70%
She literally spent
three months in the hospital
00:10:35.634 --> 00:10:38.037 align:center line:79% position:50% size:43%
before she could
have her surgery.
00:10:38.104 --> 00:10:40.973 align:start line:58% position:33% size:58%
ASHTON: I just remember
thinking, Lord,
00:10:41.040 --> 00:10:43.976 align:center line:58% position:58% size:65%
if this is your will,
you have to make it happen
00:10:44.043 --> 00:10:47.113 align:center line:58% position:68% size:45%
because there were
so many barriers.
00:10:47.179 --> 00:10:49.181 align:start line:79% position:33% size:33%
God was
just faithful
00:10:49.248 --> 00:10:53.919 align:center line:79% position:50% size:55%
and I'm excited to see
how she looks today.
00:10:53.986 --> 00:10:56.389 align:start line:79% position:25% size:50%
JOHN: The first time
I saw Victorina,
00:10:56.455 --> 00:10:59.759 align:center line:79% position:50% size:73%
I saw her off in the distance
on a huge granite boulder
00:10:59.825 --> 00:11:02.628 align:center line:79% position:50% size:70%
with her and two women
pounding out what little bit
00:11:02.695 --> 00:11:06.632 align:center line:79% position:50% size:63%
of cornmeal that they had
to make a meal.
00:11:06.699 --> 00:11:10.403 align:start line:79% position:15% size:68%
When I got up here my heart
just sank for her.
00:11:10.469 --> 00:11:14.807 align:start line:74% position:18% size:63%
We left, we went back
to the village that night
where we were camping,
00:11:14.874 --> 00:11:16.876 align:center line:79% position:50% size:63%
and after a long exchange
with the kids
00:11:16.942 --> 00:11:18.944 align:center line:79% position:50% size:33%
it was time
to go to bed.
00:11:19.011 --> 00:11:21.013 align:center line:79% position:50% size:45%
Ashton gets up
and she walks over
00:11:21.080 --> 00:11:24.884 align:center line:79% position:50% size:55%
and she put her hands
on Victorina's cheeks.
00:11:24.950 --> 00:11:27.420 align:start line:79% position:25% size:50%
Ashton was trying
to lovingly tell her
00:11:27.486 --> 00:11:30.122 align:center line:85% position:50% size:55%
how beautiful she was.
00:11:30.189 --> 00:11:34.660 align:start line:79% position:18% size:63%
Victorina ran off crying,
devastated.
00:11:34.727 --> 00:11:36.929 align:start line:79% position:20% size:58%
Why? Because she wanted
to dwell in the shadow.
00:11:36.996 --> 00:11:39.298 align:center line:79% position:50% size:68%
She wanted to be hidden.
She didn't want to be seen.
00:11:39.365 --> 00:11:41.400 align:center line:85% position:50% size:40%
She was ashamed.
00:11:41.467 --> 00:11:45.504 align:start line:79% position:23% size:55%
She was literally
in a prison of despair
00:11:45.571 --> 00:11:47.773 align:center line:79% position:50% size:70%
that so broke Ashton's heart
that she spent
00:11:47.840 --> 00:11:50.409 align:center line:79% position:50% size:53%
the rest of the night
crying in our tent.
00:11:50.476 --> 00:11:53.112 align:start line:79% position:25% size:50%
She asked me, "Dad,
isn't there anything
00:11:53.179 --> 00:11:55.981 align:start line:79% position:30% size:38%
we can do
for Victorina?"
00:11:56.048 --> 00:11:58.751 align:start line:79% position:28% size:45%
It began a journey
that took
00:11:58.818 --> 00:12:02.421 align:start line:79% position:25% size:48%
hundreds of people,
hundreds of hours,
00:12:02.488 --> 00:12:07.793 align:center line:79% position:50% size:45%
and multiple trips
to make happen.
00:12:07.860 --> 00:12:13.299 align:start line:79% position:23% size:53%
And now, it has been
a day of celebration.
00:12:13.365 --> 00:12:15.668 align:start line:79% position:28% size:43%
It has been a day
of miracles.
00:12:15.734 --> 00:12:19.405 align:center line:79% position:50% size:58%
It has been a day
of wonder and laughter.
00:12:19.472 --> 00:12:26.145 align:start line:79% position:13% size:73%
Here's a little girl who just
two years ago had no friends.
00:12:26.212 --> 00:12:28.180 align:start line:79% position:13% size:73%
And as I'm watching her today
in class
00:12:28.247 --> 00:12:31.083 align:center line:79% position:50% size:68%
and she's raising her hand
and answering the questions
00:12:31.150 --> 00:12:33.285 align:center line:79% position:50% size:55%
from the teacher
in her multiplication,
00:12:33.352 --> 00:12:35.354 align:center line:79% position:50% size:45%
she goes along
and she introduces
00:12:35.421 --> 00:12:37.523 align:center line:79% position:50% size:58%
each one of her friends
to me by name;
00:12:37.590 --> 00:12:41.994 align:center line:79% position:50% size:68%
playing their dance game
or kicking the soccer ball.
00:12:42.061 --> 00:12:46.632 align:start line:79% position:20% size:60%
Victorina has moved from
a prison to an open land
00:12:46.699 --> 00:12:50.536 align:center line:79% position:50% size:58%
of possibilities simply
through your generosity
00:12:50.603 --> 00:12:53.038 align:center line:79% position:50% size:48%
and your kindness
and your compassion
00:12:53.105 --> 00:12:55.541 align:center line:79% position:50% size:68%
through
Christmas Shoes and Smiles.
00:12:55.608 --> 00:12:58.711 align:start line:79% position:20% size:60%
Victorina is an example
of thousands of children
00:12:58.777 --> 00:13:01.580 align:center line:79% position:50% size:53%
around the world that
we can help this year
00:13:01.647 --> 00:13:03.916 align:center line:85% position:50% size:55%
with a simple surgery.
00:13:03.983 --> 00:13:06.018 align:start line:79% position:15% size:68%
Whether it be on the mouth,
a cleft palate,
00:13:06.085 --> 00:13:08.287 align:center line:79% position:50% size:60%
or whether it is a child
with hydrocephalus,
00:13:08.354 --> 00:13:13.792 align:center line:74% position:50% size:60%
there are so many ways
that we can bring smiles
to families' lives
00:13:13.859 --> 00:13:17.530 align:center line:79% position:50% size:50%
through giving
to Christmas smiles.
00:13:18.531 --> 00:13:19.665 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
JAMES: Isn't that
00:13:19.732 --> 00:13:20.733 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
an amazing miracle?
00:13:20.799 --> 00:13:21.934 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
BETTY: Wow, James!
00:13:22.001 --> 00:13:23.135 align:start line:63% position:10% size:63%
Just as John's daughter's
00:13:23.202 --> 00:13:24.303 align:start line:63% position:10% size:53%
heart was broken when
00:13:24.370 --> 00:13:26.005 align:start line:63% position:10% size:65%
she first saw her, he said
00:13:26.071 --> 00:13:27.806 align:start line:63% position:10% size:45%
she wept all night
00:13:27.873 --> 00:13:29.175 align:start line:63% position:10% size:35%
in their tent.
00:13:29.241 --> 00:13:30.843 align:start line:63% position:10% size:35%
My heart is --
00:13:30.910 --> 00:13:33.045 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
my face is wet with tears
00:13:33.112 --> 00:13:35.581 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
because I'm joyful.
00:13:35.648 --> 00:13:37.483 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
I'm so glad that she got
00:13:37.550 --> 00:13:38.784 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
the miracle that she
00:13:38.851 --> 00:13:40.252 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
so thought she'd never get.
00:13:40.319 --> 00:13:41.954 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
James, she went into hiding.
00:13:42.021 --> 00:13:43.756 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
She was ashamed for people
00:13:43.822 --> 00:13:46.725 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
to look at her and to see
00:13:46.792 --> 00:13:48.294 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
what she could feel
00:13:48.360 --> 00:13:50.729 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
in her own heart and know.
00:13:50.796 --> 00:13:52.097 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
And now to know,
00:13:52.164 --> 00:13:54.366 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
just see that smile.
00:13:54.433 --> 00:13:55.434 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
What a beautiful
00:13:55.501 --> 00:13:56.502 align:start line:85% position:10% size:30%
little girl.
00:13:56.569 --> 00:13:57.570 align:start line:85% position:10% size:33%
Her heart has
00:13:57.636 --> 00:13:58.637 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
just been blessed.
00:13:58.704 --> 00:14:00.072 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
She can play with
00:14:00.139 --> 00:14:01.140 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38%
other children.
00:14:01.207 --> 00:14:03.409 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
She can just be herself now
00:14:03.475 --> 00:14:04.843 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
and know that she doesn't
00:14:04.910 --> 00:14:06.145 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
have to be ashamed
00:14:06.212 --> 00:14:07.546 align:start line:85% position:10% size:33%
and shy away.
00:14:07.613 --> 00:14:09.381 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
It just blesses my heart.
00:14:09.448 --> 00:14:11.584 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
JAMES: Okay, I'm 80
00:14:11.650 --> 00:14:12.718 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
and I haven't grown out
00:14:12.785 --> 00:14:13.919 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
of a broken heart
00:14:13.986 --> 00:14:16.355 align:start line:85% position:10% size:33%
and I haven't
00:14:16.422 --> 00:14:19.158 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
grown past the tears.
00:14:19.225 --> 00:14:21.093 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
I'm weeping because
00:14:21.160 --> 00:14:24.096 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
that girl is a miracle.
00:14:24.163 --> 00:14:25.564 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
But I'm weeping because
00:14:25.631 --> 00:14:27.233 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
people like you --
00:14:27.299 --> 00:14:30.869 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
God, I don't know what
00:14:30.936 --> 00:14:32.905 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
kind of miracle you need.
00:14:32.972 --> 00:14:34.740 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
I don't know if it is
00:14:34.807 --> 00:14:35.841 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
somebody in your family
00:14:35.908 --> 00:14:37.276 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
who needs surgery
00:14:37.343 --> 00:14:41.814 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
or a miracle relationship,
00:14:41.880 --> 00:14:43.249 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
but I just need to pause
00:14:43.315 --> 00:14:44.283 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
a minute and pray for you.
00:14:44.350 --> 00:14:45.284 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
Father, I don't know
00:14:45.351 --> 00:14:46.385 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
what is going on
00:14:46.452 --> 00:14:47.686 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
in anybody's life.
00:14:47.753 --> 00:14:49.288 align:start line:85% position:10% size:25%
It is big.
00:14:49.355 --> 00:14:50.623 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
It's like that was so big
00:14:50.689 --> 00:14:51.924 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
to that little girl.
00:14:51.991 --> 00:14:54.159 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
Oh God, and thank you.
00:14:54.226 --> 00:14:55.394 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
You did a miracle through
00:14:55.461 --> 00:14:56.662 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
the people watching us.
00:14:56.729 --> 00:14:57.696 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
They are the ones
00:14:57.763 --> 00:14:58.864 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
that make it happen,
00:14:58.931 --> 00:15:00.799 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35%
the surgeries.
00:15:00.866 --> 00:15:01.867 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
But Lord, there are people
00:15:01.934 --> 00:15:03.035 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
right now that need
00:15:03.102 --> 00:15:04.169 align:start line:85% position:10% size:25%
a miracle.
00:15:04.236 --> 00:15:05.971 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
I don't know what it is.
00:15:06.038 --> 00:15:06.972 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
But it is not bigger than you
00:15:07.039 --> 00:15:08.073 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
and I want you to work
00:15:08.140 --> 00:15:10.042 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
a miracle in their lives.
00:15:10.109 --> 00:15:11.076 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
We come every day
00:15:11.143 --> 00:15:12.344 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
hoping we can inspire them
00:15:12.411 --> 00:15:13.412 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
or bring somebody in.
00:15:13.479 --> 00:15:14.647 align:start line:85% position:10% size:28%
They can be
00:15:14.713 --> 00:15:15.981 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
the encouraging word that
00:15:16.048 --> 00:15:18.050 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
helps them to the miracle.
00:15:18.117 --> 00:15:19.385 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
And I pray that for them
00:15:19.451 --> 00:15:22.288 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
now; in Jesus' name.
00:15:22.354 --> 00:15:23.455 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
You know the very fact
00:15:23.522 --> 00:15:24.957 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
that you let us be here
00:15:25.024 --> 00:15:26.292 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
and bring the great
00:15:26.358 --> 00:15:27.726 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
testimonies of God's power
00:15:27.793 --> 00:15:28.927 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38%
and his healing
00:15:28.994 --> 00:15:30.396 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
in relationships
00:15:30.462 --> 00:15:31.497 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
and just seeing people
00:15:31.563 --> 00:15:32.998 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
come together even
00:15:33.065 --> 00:15:34.133 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
in different churches that
00:15:34.199 --> 00:15:35.267 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
never knew how to love
00:15:35.334 --> 00:15:36.702 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
each other, seems hard
00:15:36.769 --> 00:15:37.803 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38%
to love anybody
00:15:37.870 --> 00:15:38.971 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
even in your own church.
00:15:39.038 --> 00:15:40.406 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
I find that so sad.
00:15:40.472 --> 00:15:42.074 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
We need to love each other
00:15:42.141 --> 00:15:43.175 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
the way God loves
00:15:43.242 --> 00:15:44.243 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
and love our neighbors
00:15:44.310 --> 00:15:45.611 align:start line:85% position:10% size:33%
as ourselves.
00:15:45.678 --> 00:15:46.779 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
That's what we do
00:15:46.845 --> 00:15:48.180 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
at LIFE Outreach.
00:15:48.514 --> 00:15:49.782 align:start line:10% position:10% size:55%
That's what we do with
00:15:49.848 --> 00:15:50.949 align:start line:10% position:10% size:63%
the cleft palate surgery.
00:15:51.016 --> 00:15:52.117 align:start line:10% position:10% size:55%
That's what we do when
00:15:52.184 --> 00:15:54.019 align:start line:10% position:10% size:55%
we give children Shoes
00:15:54.086 --> 00:15:55.554 align:start line:10% position:10% size:63%
and Smiles for Christmas.
00:15:55.621 --> 00:15:56.722 align:start line:10% position:10% size:58%
That's what we're going
00:15:56.789 --> 00:15:57.856 align:start line:10% position:10% size:48%
to do when we build
00:15:57.923 --> 00:15:59.892 align:start line:10% position:10% size:43%
another hospital.
00:15:59.958 --> 00:16:01.694 align:start line:10% position:10% size:48%
How do you do that?
00:16:01.760 --> 00:16:02.928 align:start line:10% position:10% size:45%
God's love flowing
00:16:02.995 --> 00:16:05.297 align:start line:10% position:10% size:63%
through you like a river.
00:16:05.364 --> 00:16:07.099 align:start line:10% position:10% size:53%
You see that miracle.
00:16:07.166 --> 00:16:08.233 align:start line:10% position:10% size:65%
Would you make the largest
00:16:08.300 --> 00:16:09.501 align:start line:10% position:10% size:58%
gift you can right now?
00:16:09.568 --> 00:16:10.669 align:start line:10% position:10% size:50%
We've got some gifts
00:16:10.736 --> 00:16:12.071 align:start line:10% position:10% size:73%
to send you to say thank you.
00:16:12.137 --> 00:16:13.272 align:start line:10% position:10% size:45%
But would you make
00:16:13.339 --> 00:16:15.240 align:start line:10% position:10% size:63%
the largest gift you can?
00:16:15.307 --> 00:16:19.778 align:start line:10% position:10% size:55%
150,000 shoes, smiles,
00:16:19.845 --> 00:16:21.547 align:start line:10% position:10% size:38%
think about it,
00:16:21.613 --> 00:16:24.216 align:start line:10% position:10% size:55%
$1.2 million to finish
00:16:24.283 --> 00:16:25.584 align:start line:10% position:10% size:53%
a hospital and one of
00:16:25.651 --> 00:16:27.653 align:start line:10% position:10% size:70%
our supporters gave $700,000
00:16:27.720 --> 00:16:30.055 align:start line:10% position:10% size:63%
and now we need $500,000.
00:16:30.122 --> 00:16:31.323 align:start line:10% position:10% size:33%
I think, God!
00:16:31.390 --> 00:16:32.624 align:start line:10% position:10% size:50%
There are 500 people
00:16:32.691 --> 00:16:33.726 align:start line:10% position:10% size:63%
listening to us right now
00:16:33.792 --> 00:16:34.860 align:start line:10% position:10% size:55%
who could give $1,000.
00:16:34.927 --> 00:16:36.028 align:start line:10% position:10% size:43%
I don't know what
00:16:36.095 --> 00:16:37.396 align:start line:10% position:10% size:55%
you can do but no gift
00:16:37.463 --> 00:16:38.831 align:start line:10% position:10% size:50%
is too small because
00:16:38.897 --> 00:16:41.700 align:start line:10% position:10% size:60%
the effect is priceless.
00:16:41.767 --> 00:16:42.801 align:start line:10% position:10% size:38%
It is a miracle
00:16:42.868 --> 00:16:44.503 align:start line:10% position:10% size:45%
like you just saw.
00:16:44.570 --> 00:16:45.604 align:start line:10% position:10% size:25%
Thank you.
00:16:45.671 --> 00:16:46.705 align:start line:10% position:10% size:45%
Go online, please,
00:16:46.772 --> 00:16:47.906 align:start line:10% position:10% size:25%

Get your bank card.

Get it. Dial the number.
00:16:51.143 --> 00:16:52.611 align:start line:10% position:10% size:68%
Make the best gift you can.
00:16:52.678 --> 00:16:53.779 align:start line:10% position:10% size:43%
And I pray to God
00:16:53.846 --> 00:16:55.514 align:start line:10% position:10% size:60%
you're excited about it.
00:16:55.581 --> 00:16:56.515 align:start line:10% position:10% size:43%
This is Christmas
00:16:56.582 --> 00:16:57.816 align:start line:10% position:10% size:45%
way ahead of time.
00:16:57.883 --> 00:16:59.418 align:start line:10% position:10% size:65%
Christmas Shoes and Smiles
00:16:59.485 --> 00:17:01.320 align:start line:10% position:10% size:60%
and miracle surgeries --
00:17:01.387 --> 00:17:03.088 align:start line:10% position:10% size:55%
that's what love does.
00:17:03.155 --> 00:17:04.723 align:start line:10% position:10% size:25%
Do it now.
00:17:04.790 --> 00:17:07.292 align:start line:10% position:10% size:45%
Thank you so much!
00:17:08.427 --> 00:17:11.330 align:start line:10% position:23% size:55%

for children with

Your gift of $36

00:17:44.196 --> 00:17:46.265 align:start line:10% position:18% size:63%
This year we have
an incredible opportunity
00:17:46.331 --> 00:17:48.600 align:center line:10% position:50% size:53%
to help construct
a new surgical center
00:17:48.667 --> 00:17:50.669 align:center line:10% position:50% size:50%
that will provide
lifesaving surgeries
00:17:50.736 --> 00:17:53.739 align:center line:10% position:50% size:73%
to children suffering serious
neurological conditions.
00:17:53.806 --> 00:17:56.008 align:start line:10% position:18% size:63%
This $1.2 million project
00:17:56.074 --> 00:17:58.277 align:center line:10% position:50% size:50%
is up and above
LIFE's normal budget
00:17:58.343 --> 00:18:01.079 align:center line:10% position:50% size:73%
but because of
one generous friend for LIFE,
00:18:01.146 --> 00:18:03.782 align:center line:10% position:50% size:33%
only $500,000
is needed.
00:18:03.849 --> 00:18:05.884 align:start line:10% position:20% size:60%

As the world celebrates
the birth of Jesus
this Christmas,
00:18:46.725 --> 00:18:49.328 align:center line:79% position:50% size:68%
LIFE Outreach International
is also celebrating
00:18:49.394 --> 00:18:52.130 align:center line:79% position:50% size:68%
nearly two decades
of spreading this good news
00:18:52.197 --> 00:18:55.634 align:center line:79% position:50% size:53%
in a very special way
with shoes!
00:18:55.701 --> 00:18:57.669 align:center line:85% position:50% size:28%
Yes! Shoes!
00:18:57.736 --> 00:18:59.705 align:start line:79% position:25% size:50%
We, along with
our mission partners
00:18:59.771 --> 00:19:02.074 align:center line:79% position:50% size:73%
located throughout the world,
have provided
00:19:02.140 --> 00:19:05.477 align:center line:74% position:50% size:53%
two and a half
million children with
a gift of shoes.
00:19:05.544 --> 00:19:07.646 align:start line:79% position:28% size:43%
Children who
in many instances
00:19:07.713 --> 00:19:11.183 align:center line:79% position:50% size:50%
have never had
a new pair of shoes.
00:19:11.250 --> 00:19:13.285 align:start line:10% position:23% size:55%
ISAK: We all celebrate
different holidays
around the world.
00:19:13.352 --> 00:19:15.320 align:start line:10% position:30% size:40%
The holiday that
is pretty common
00:19:15.387 --> 00:19:17.689 align:center line:10% position:50% size:33%
to most of us
is Christmas.
00:19:17.756 --> 00:19:19.758 align:start line:10% position:18% size:63%
That's what it feels like
here today.
00:19:19.825 --> 00:19:21.827 align:start line:10% position:20% size:58%
It feels like Christmas
for us
00:19:21.894 --> 00:19:24.396 align:center line:10% position:50% size:53%
because we're getting
to do one of the most
incredible things
00:19:24.463 --> 00:19:27.466 align:center line:10% position:50% size:75%
and that is to bless these
children with a pair of shoes.
00:19:27.533 --> 00:19:29.535 align:start line:79% position:23% size:53%
It is because of
friends like you that
00:19:29.601 --> 00:19:32.671 align:center line:79% position:50% size:70%
we have been able to reach
into remote areas every year
00:19:32.738 --> 00:19:37.709 align:center line:74% position:50% size:68%
providing the gift of shoes
and sharing the good news
of Jesus.
00:19:37.776 --> 00:19:40.612 align:start line:79% position:18% size:65%
This year we want to once
again see children's faces
00:19:40.679 --> 00:19:45.317 align:center line:74% position:50% size:65%
light up with smiles
as they receive a new pair
of shoes.
00:19:45.384 --> 00:19:47.386 align:start line:79% position:28% size:45%
Unfortunately,
there are children
00:19:47.452 --> 00:19:51.056 align:center line:79% position:50% size:70%
who can't smile because
they suffer from a condition
00:19:51.123 --> 00:19:53.859 align:center line:79% position:50% size:45%
known as cleft lip
or cleft palate.
00:19:53.926 --> 00:19:57.362 align:start line:79% position:15% size:68%
The good news is our annual
Christmas Smiles outreach
00:19:57.429 --> 00:19:59.431 align:center line:79% position:50% size:63%
allows us the opportunity
to minister
00:19:59.498 --> 00:20:01.600 align:center line:79% position:50% size:55%
to some of the world's
poorest children
00:20:01.667 --> 00:20:04.903 align:center line:74% position:50% size:73%
who have no hope
of correcting their condition
with surgery.
00:20:04.970 --> 00:20:06.972 align:start line:58% position:10% size:48%
>> But thanks
to James and Betty,
00:20:07.039 --> 00:20:09.107 align:center line:58% position:45% size:70%
and the friends of
LIFE Outreach International,
00:20:09.174 --> 00:20:11.877 align:center line:58% position:45% size:68%
we're able to make lasting
changes in children's lives
00:20:11.944 --> 00:20:13.645 align:center line:79% position:35% size:48%
through
corrective surgery.
00:20:13.712 --> 00:20:16.081 align:start line:10% position:18% size:65%
And this year,
LIFE Outreach is expanding
00:20:16.148 --> 00:20:18.617 align:center line:10% position:50% size:60%
our corrective surgeries
to include children
00:20:18.684 --> 00:20:20.485 align:center line:10% position:50% size:38%
of neurological
disabilities
00:20:20.552 --> 00:20:23.288 align:center line:10% position:50% size:50%
such as spina bifida
and hydrocephalus,
00:20:23.355 --> 00:20:26.758 align:center line:10% position:50% size:53%
commonly known as
“water on the brain.”
00:20:26.825 --> 00:20:28.560 align:start line:10% position:28% size:43%
To meet these
children’s needs,
00:20:28.627 --> 00:20:31.663 align:center line:10% position:50% size:65%
we need your help to build
a new surgical center.
00:20:31.730 --> 00:20:34.232 align:start line:10% position:18% size:65%
This new neurological
surgical center will allow
00:20:34.299 --> 00:20:37.069 align:center line:10% position:50% size:63%
our mission partner to
expand their capabilities
00:20:37.135 --> 00:20:40.372 align:center line:10% position:50% size:60%
and to perform even more
lifesaving surgeries
00:20:40.439 --> 00:20:43.041 align:center line:10% position:50% size:60%
for children and their
families who are waiting
00:20:43.108 --> 00:20:45.711 align:center line:10% position:50% size:58%
and so desperately need
our help.
00:20:45.777 --> 00:20:47.579 align:center line:10% position:50% size:63%
So this Christmas season,
00:20:47.646 --> 00:20:49.681 align:center line:10% position:50% size:68%
as you gather with
your loved ones and friends
00:20:49.748 --> 00:20:52.050 align:center line:10% position:50% size:48%
to celebrate
the birth of Jesus,
00:20:52.117 --> 00:20:55.587 align:center line:10% position:50% size:75%
know that as you give to
our Shoes and Smiles emphasis,
00:20:55.654 --> 00:20:58.457 align:center line:10% position:50% size:53%
you will be providing
hope, dignity,
00:20:58.523 --> 00:21:00.826 align:center line:10% position:50% size:53%
and the opportunity
for a brighter future
00:21:00.892 --> 00:21:03.729 align:center line:10% position:50% size:53%
to thousands
of precious children!
00:21:08.967 --> 00:21:11.737 align:start line:63% position:10% size:73%
JAMES: Do you see that smile?
00:21:11.803 --> 00:21:14.573 align:start line:63% position:10% size:68%
Christmas Shoes and Smiles.
00:21:14.640 --> 00:21:16.308 align:start line:63% position:10% size:40%
I'm smiling too.
00:21:16.375 --> 00:21:17.542 align:start line:63% position:10% size:48%
A while ago you saw
00:21:17.609 --> 00:21:19.478 align:start line:63% position:10% size:55%
how quickly I can weep
00:21:19.544 --> 00:21:20.712 align:start line:63% position:10% size:58%
because I not only love
00:21:20.779 --> 00:21:23.248 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
those children, I love you.
00:21:23.315 --> 00:21:24.950 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75%
The reason we have Life Today,
00:21:25.017 --> 00:21:26.284 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
the major outreach
00:21:26.351 --> 00:21:27.753 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
we have is media outreach
00:21:27.819 --> 00:21:29.488 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
to millions of people.
00:21:29.554 --> 00:21:30.756 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
We show them what they can do
00:21:30.822 --> 00:21:32.090 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
to be a blessing but we seek
00:21:32.157 --> 00:21:33.492 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
to bless you every day.
00:21:33.558 --> 00:21:35.260 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
That's why we're here.
00:21:35.327 --> 00:21:37.362 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
We really do love you.
00:21:37.429 --> 00:21:39.731 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
We would like to know you.
00:21:39.798 --> 00:21:41.667 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
We know it won't happen
00:21:41.733 --> 00:21:43.902 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
in this lifetime but
00:21:43.969 --> 00:21:45.237 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
we can bless you through
00:21:45.303 --> 00:21:46.538 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
the gift God's given us.
00:21:46.605 --> 00:21:48.106 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
I told Betty, you could
00:21:48.173 --> 00:21:49.207 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
be such a blessing by
00:21:49.274 --> 00:21:50.909 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
just sharing who you are
00:21:50.976 --> 00:21:52.844 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
and who he is in you.
00:21:52.911 --> 00:21:54.079 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
But she never dreamed
00:21:54.146 --> 00:21:55.080 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
she would be sitting here
00:21:55.147 --> 00:21:56.148 align:start line:85% position:10% size:15%
by me.
00:21:56.214 --> 00:21:57.249 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
Well, Betty, did you ever
00:21:57.315 --> 00:21:58.650 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
dream that we would
00:21:58.984 --> 00:22:00.252 align:start line:10% position:10% size:50%
be looking at people
00:22:00.318 --> 00:22:01.353 align:start line:10% position:10% size:38%
and asking them
00:22:01.420 --> 00:22:02.454 align:start line:10% position:10% size:55%
to give shoes, smiles,
00:22:02.521 --> 00:22:03.522 align:start line:10% position:10% size:53%
and a surgical center
00:22:03.588 --> 00:22:04.589 align:start line:10% position:10% size:35%
that does more
00:22:04.656 --> 00:22:05.657 align:start line:10% position:10% size:40%
brain surgeries?
00:22:05.724 --> 00:22:06.725 align:start line:10% position:10% size:35%
I mean this is
00:22:06.792 --> 00:22:08.060 align:start line:10% position:10% size:38%
a real miracle.
00:22:08.126 --> 00:22:09.127 align:start line:10% position:10% size:70%
And this is a Christmas gift
00:22:09.194 --> 00:22:10.195 align:start line:10% position:10% size:45%
that we're raising
00:22:10.262 --> 00:22:11.496 align:start line:10% position:10% size:60%
the funds for right now.
00:22:11.563 --> 00:22:12.698 align:start line:10% position:10% size:28%
And we need
00:22:12.764 --> 00:22:14.199 align:start line:10% position:10% size:63%
a miracle response today.
00:22:14.266 --> 00:22:15.300 align:start line:10% position:10% size:60%
I prayed for you to have
00:22:15.367 --> 00:22:16.668 align:start line:10% position:10% size:58%
a miracle touch in your
00:22:16.735 --> 00:22:18.303 align:start line:10% position:10% size:68%
own life and come into play
00:22:18.370 --> 00:22:19.371 align:start line:10% position:10% size:33%
in your life.
00:22:19.438 --> 00:22:20.439 align:start line:10% position:10% size:48%
And I pray it will.
00:22:20.505 --> 00:22:21.673 align:start line:10% position:10% size:60%
I hope we hear from you.
00:22:21.740 --> 00:22:22.741 align:start line:10% position:10% size:35%
But you can be
00:22:22.808 --> 00:22:23.809 align:start line:10% position:10% size:63%
somebody's miracle today.
00:22:23.875 --> 00:22:24.876 align:start line:10% position:10% size:48%
I believe everybody
00:22:24.943 --> 00:22:26.111 align:start line:10% position:10% size:70%
watching is going to help us
00:22:26.178 --> 00:22:27.179 align:start line:10% position:10% size:38%
give some shoes
00:22:27.245 --> 00:22:28.246 align:start line:10% position:10% size:40%
and some smiles.
00:22:28.313 --> 00:22:29.314 align:start line:10% position:10% size:43%
BETTY: What three
00:22:29.381 --> 00:22:30.382 align:start line:10% position:10% size:60%
wonderful opportunities!
00:22:30.449 --> 00:22:31.516 align:start line:10% position:10% size:43%
The most serious,
00:22:31.583 --> 00:22:32.951 align:start line:10% position:10% size:60%
brain surgery can change
00:22:33.018 --> 00:22:34.586 align:start line:10% position:10% size:38%
a child's life.
00:22:34.653 --> 00:22:36.421 align:start line:10% position:10% size:65%
They can grow up normally.
00:22:36.488 --> 00:22:38.457 align:start line:10% position:10% size:60%
They can grow up period.
00:22:38.523 --> 00:22:39.691 align:start line:10% position:10% size:65%
Some of them won't make it
00:22:39.758 --> 00:22:40.892 align:start line:10% position:10% size:55%
if they don't have it.
00:22:40.959 --> 00:22:42.327 align:start line:10% position:10% size:50%
And then the smiles;
00:22:42.394 --> 00:22:43.428 align:start line:10% position:10% size:40%
there is nothing
00:22:43.495 --> 00:22:44.896 align:start line:10% position:10% size:53%
like a child's smile.
00:22:44.963 --> 00:22:46.098 align:start line:10% position:10% size:43%
We have all these
00:22:46.164 --> 00:22:47.265 align:start line:10% position:10% size:45%
grandchildren, and
00:22:47.332 --> 00:22:48.467 align:start line:10% position:10% size:60%
great-grandchildren now.
00:22:48.533 --> 00:22:50.068 align:start line:10% position:10% size:63%
And James, I see pictures
00:22:50.135 --> 00:22:52.003 align:start line:10% position:10% size:48%
of them and I smile
00:22:52.070 --> 00:22:53.538 align:start line:10% position:10% size:40%
from ear to ear.
00:22:53.605 --> 00:22:54.906 align:start line:10% position:10% size:35%
And then shoes
00:22:54.973 --> 00:22:56.041 align:start line:10% position:10% size:38%
for their feet.
00:22:56.108 --> 00:22:57.109 align:start line:10% position:10% size:38%
I remember when
00:22:57.175 --> 00:22:58.176 align:start line:10% position:10% size:48%
our oldest daughter
00:22:58.243 --> 00:22:59.377 align:start line:10% position:10% size:48%
was just a toddler.
00:22:59.444 --> 00:23:00.979 align:start line:10% position:10% size:50%
She loved her little
00:23:01.046 --> 00:23:03.682 align:start line:10% position:10% size:68%
black patent shoes so much.
00:23:03.749 --> 00:23:05.584 align:start line:10% position:10% size:63%
She was so proud of them.
00:23:05.650 --> 00:23:06.952 align:start line:10% position:10% size:70%
She would go to bed at night
00:23:07.018 --> 00:23:08.153 align:start line:10% position:10% size:45%
wearing her little
00:23:08.220 --> 00:23:09.654 align:start line:10% position:10% size:48%
black patent shoes.
00:23:09.721 --> 00:23:10.856 align:start line:10% position:10% size:58%
I would have to slip in
00:23:10.922 --> 00:23:12.190 align:start line:10% position:10% size:63%
after she had gone to bed
00:23:12.257 --> 00:23:13.725 align:start line:10% position:10% size:55%
and take them off her.
00:23:13.792 --> 00:23:15.060 align:start line:10% position:10% size:48%
These children love
00:23:15.127 --> 00:23:16.795 align:start line:10% position:10% size:60%
the gift of these shoes.
00:23:16.862 --> 00:23:18.530 align:start line:10% position:10% size:58%
They not only are proud
00:23:18.597 --> 00:23:19.598 align:start line:10% position:10% size:60%
of them but they protect
00:23:19.664 --> 00:23:20.766 align:start line:10% position:10% size:28%
their feet.
00:23:20.832 --> 00:23:21.833 align:start line:10% position:10% size:35%
They keep them
00:23:21.900 --> 00:23:23.001 align:start line:10% position:10% size:53%
from diseases, James.
00:23:23.068 --> 00:23:24.136 align:start line:10% position:10% size:48%
So what a wonderful
00:23:24.202 --> 00:23:25.904 align:start line:10% position:10% size:48%
opportunity to have
00:23:25.971 --> 00:23:27.272 align:start line:10% position:10% size:58%
these three things that
00:23:27.339 --> 00:23:28.340 align:start line:10% position:10% size:60%
we can make a difference
00:23:28.406 --> 00:23:29.341 align:start line:10% position:10% size:30%
in the lives
00:23:29.407 --> 00:23:31.209 align:start line:10% position:10% size:45%
of these children.
00:23:31.276 --> 00:23:32.410 align:start line:10% position:10% size:50%
JAMES: Somebody made
00:23:32.477 --> 00:23:34.012 align:start line:10% position:10% size:45%
a really big gift.
00:23:34.079 --> 00:23:35.213 align:start line:10% position:10% size:40%
By the way, $100
00:23:35.280 --> 00:23:36.348 align:start line:10% position:10% size:45%
is a big gift when
00:23:36.414 --> 00:23:38.116 align:start line:10% position:10% size:68%
it changes somebody's life.
00:23:38.183 --> 00:23:40.752 align:start line:10% position:10% size:33%
$500, $1,000,
00:23:40.819 --> 00:23:42.287 align:start line:10% position:10% size:60%
I ask you for big gifts.
00:23:42.354 --> 00:23:44.389 align:start line:10% position:10% size:55%
I ask you to think big
00:23:44.456 --> 00:23:45.690 align:start line:10% position:10% size:50%
and give beyond what
00:23:45.757 --> 00:23:47.793 align:start line:10% position:10% size:65%
you would think is simple.
00:23:47.859 --> 00:23:48.960 align:start line:10% position:10% size:60%
I like for you to accept
00:23:49.027 --> 00:23:50.462 align:start line:10% position:10% size:50%
a challenge and move
00:23:50.529 --> 00:23:52.931 align:start line:10% position:10% size:58%
a mountain and you can.
00:23:52.998 --> 00:23:55.667 align:start line:10% position:10% size:25%
Thank you.
00:23:55.734 --> 00:23:56.935 align:start line:10% position:10% size:48%
Get your bank card,
00:23:57.002 --> 00:23:58.270 align:start line:10% position:10% size:60%
and use it like a check.
00:23:58.336 --> 00:24:00.605 align:start line:10% position:10% size:58%
Always use it that way.

give them to the kids.
