Uh, I want to thank my friends

for doing this in AI's memory.

1596

01:
25:24,160 -- 01:25:27,903

It reaIIy is an

amazing accompIishment.

1597

01:
25:28,039 -- 01:25:30,371

Awise person recentIy

toId me that God's caIIing

1598

01:
25:30,458 -- 01:25:33,666

isn't to do something,

but to be something,

1599

01:
25:33,795 -- 01:25:35,205

you know,

to be obedient

1600

01:
25:35,296 -- 01:25:37,002

and find the fulfillment

in God's desires

1601

01:
25:37,090 -- 01:25:40,253

in our character

and not our works.

1602

01:
25:40,385 -- 01:25:43,218

So I don't knowthat doing

something for God in India

1603

01:
25:43,304 -- 01:25:45,215

is really my calling.

1604

01:
25:45,306 -- 01:25:48,639

But I do knowthat I was the

best person I've ever been.

1605

01:
25:48,726 -- 01:25:50,762

More alive, more fulfilled,

1606

01:
25:50,895 -- 01:25:53,056

and passionate

to hear God's voice

1607

01:
25:53,189 -- 01:25:55,271

and obey him

when I was in Chennai

1608

01:
25:55,400 -- 01:25:58,016

with these kids

and this ministry.

1609

01:
25:59,237 -- 01:26:01,444

So are you going back?

1610

01:
26:01,573 -- 01:26:04,315

I've aIready got my ticket,

so I guess so.

1611

01:
26:04,409 -- 01:26:07,742

[appIauding]

1612

01:
26:07,871 -- 01:26:09,236

TeII Raj that

I'II see him soon.

1613

01:
26:09,372 -- 01:26:11,328

Thank you so much.

1614

01:
26:12,876 -- 01:26:15,743

- See you in Chennai.

-You wiII.

1615

01:
26:22,260 -- 01:26:24,216

'W.C.''

1616

01:
26:24,304 -- 01:26:26,841

The worId changer's

back, man.

1617

01:
26:27,891 -- 01:26:33,682

[appIauding]

1618

01:
26:37,692 -- 01:26:41,310

(Ethan narrating)

This is how lifegoes;

1619

01:
26:41,446 -- 01:26:44,734

One minute

it's bright and hopeful,

1620

01:
26:44,824 -- 01:26:51,241

and the next, something

seemingly inexplicable happens,

1621

01:
26:51,372 -- 01:26:54,079

but God is there.

1622

01:
26:54,209 -- 01:27:02,378

27:25,907 -- 01:27:28,319

Thank you.

1628

01:
27:32,247 -- 01:27:33,657

What's that?

1629

01:
27:33,748 -- 01:27:35,158

Boston U.

1630

01:
27:35,250 -- 01:27:36,660

Someone couIdn't

continue with the program,

1631

01:
27:36,751 -- 01:27:38,582

so they had

a spot open up.

1632

01:
27:38,670 -- 01:27:40,786

I'm first

on the waiting Iist.

1633

01:
27:40,922 -- 01:27:42,332

I'II be a semester behind,

1634

01:
27:42,423 -- 01:27:43,913

but hey man,

I'm used to that, right?

1635

01:
27:44,008 -- 01:27:46,545

Congrats, man!

1636

01:
27:46,678 -- 01:27:49,010

It's a good thing

I stiII have this.

1637

01:
27:50,598 -- 01:27:52,008

Oh, no, no, no.

1638

01:
27:52,100 -- 01:27:54,011

I wrote this for both of you.

It's stiII yours.

1639

01:
27:54,102 -- 01:27:57,890

I'm good, and

you need it now, so.

1640

01:
27:59,607 -- 01:28:01,518

Yes!

1641

01:
28:08,825 -- 01:28:12,693

Ooh, that doesn't seem

Iike such a good idea to me.

1642

01:
28:12,787 -- 01:28:14,197

Oh, but this one does.

1643

01:
28:16,291 -- 01:28:18,327

WeII, congratuIate me, boys.

1644

01:
28:18,459 -- 01:28:22,293

I am the proud owner

of a used Honda.

1645

01:
28:22,380 -- 01:28:23,790

Hey!

1646

01:
28:23,881 -- 01:28:25,872

Awesome, did you take

thejob at the non-profit?

1647

01:
28:25,967 -- 01:28:27,377

No, no, no.

1648

01:
28:27,468 -- 01:28:29,424

I'm staying in the corporate

worId; that's my battIefieId.

1649

01:
28:29,554 -- 01:28:31,670

Took ajob with the

investment firm down the street.

1650

01:
28:31,764 -- 01:28:33,720

- Nice.

-Yeah.

1651

01:
28:33,850 -- 01:28:36,717

(Ethan narrating)

One day you thinkyou

have it all figured out

1652

01:
28:36,853 -- 01:28:38,389

and then you realize

that there was something

1653

01:
28:38,521 -- 01:28:42,139

even better

because God is there.

1654

01:
28:44,610 -- 01:28:46,066

This is it.

1655

01:
28:51,034 -- 01:28:53,992

I'm proud of you, son.

1656

01:
28:54,078 -- 01:28:56,865

Go show'em

1657

01:
28:56,998 -- 01:28:59,410

-WiII do.

-Yeah.

1658

01:
28:59,500 -- 01:29:05,541

(Ethan narrating)

One day follows the next,

good times and bad times.

1659

01:
29:05,673 -- 01:29:09,882

Times where your

dreams are on-hold

1660

01:
29:10,011 -- 01:29:13,595

and times where

they come true.

1661

01:
29:13,723 -- 01:29:16,556

Times where

you feel alone

1662

01:
29:16,642 -- 01:29:22,137

and times where you

feel love overwhelming.

1663

01:
29:22,273 -- 01:29:24,889

Times where

you make sacrifices

1664

01:
29:25,026 -- 01:29:28,860

and times where you are

overwhelmed by blessings

1665

01:
29:28,946 -- 01:29:34,031

because you're obedient

and God is there.

1666

01:
29:34,118 -- 01:29:38,782

He takes all these times

and he works in you,

1667

01:
29:38,915 -- 01:29:42,453

he works through you.

1668

01:
29:42,585 -- 01:29:44,917

Give it all to him.

1669

01:
29:45,004 -- 01:29:47,962

This is his time.

1670

01:
29:52,929 -- 01:29:56,638

Hi, I'm Joe CIendenny,

founder of Embrace a ViIIage.

1671

01:
29:56,766 -- 01:29:59,473

I hope you enjoyed the fiIm,

but more than that,

1672

01:
29:59,602 -- 01:30:02,309

I hope you wiII waIk away

with an understanding

1673

01:
30:02,438 -- 01:30:05,180

of how each Iife can

make a huge difference

1674

01:
30:05,316 -- 01:30:07,728

and can impact

many others.

1675

01:
30:07,819 -- 01:30:09,605

Though the characters

of Luke and AI

1676

01:
30:09,737 -- 01:30:11,398

are fictitious

in the movie,

1677

01:
30:11,489 -- 01:30:13,229

the stories

of Embrace a ViIIage

1678

01:
30:13,324 -- 01:30:15,280

and the LittIe Lights

chiIdren's program

1679

01:
30:15,368 -- 01:30:16,949

are very true.

1680

01:
30:17,036 -- 01:30:20,779

Embrace a Village is a vibrant,

humanitarian organization

1681

01:
30:20,873 -- 01:30:22,363

in lndia today.

1682

01:
30:22,500 -- 01:30:25,663

We exist to help transform

the lives of leprosy victims

1683

01:
30:25,795 -- 01:30:29,458

and their families, many

of whom you saw in this film.

1684

01:
30:29,590 -- 01:30:32,423

Our mission continues to be

bringing Jesus Christ's

1685

01:
30:32,510 -- 01:30:36,469

message of hope and healing

to these forgotten people;

1686

01:
30:36,556 -- 01:30:41,596

peopIe Iike IittIe Raj, who came

to us at 3 years oId, unnamed.

1687

01:
30:41,686 -- 01:30:43,517

Today Raj is thriving.

1688

01:
30:43,646 -- 01:30:46,558

He's being educated,

learning two languages,

1689

01:
30:46,691 -- 01:30:48,647

studying God's Word daily,

1690

01:
30:48,734 -- 01:30:52,693

and has positive dreams for

a bright and prosperous future,

1691

01:
30:52,780 -- 01:30:55,567

but he is just

one story of so many.

1692

01:
30:55,700 -- 01:30:58,282

I invite you to watch

the speciaI 3-minute video
