We started in our garage,

but we’ve kind of progressed to a studio

that over the last eight years
we’ve built up,

and it’s servicing us
very well at the moment!

<i>Kimberly and Robert were called by God</i>

<i>to do media ministry
for children in Australia.</i>

<i>At the time,</i>

<i>Kimberly started writing songs,</i>

<i>and Robert was working at
Sanitarium Health Food Company.</i>

<i>One day as Robert was working,
God revealed a plan!</i>

God spoke to me in the oven and said,

“Look, I’ve got this
ministry for you guys.

I want you to not just do songs,
but media.”

He also said that this house,

the house that I actually grew up in
but wasn’t living in at the time,

was going to be
the headquarters in the future.

I came home and told Kimberly,

and she said, “I’m not 
living in that house.

<i>But they felt impressed
to follow God's will.</i>

<i>They moved in, built a studio,</i>

<i>and now, after many challenges,</i>

<i>run a fully operational
children’s media ministry.</i>

<i>The</i> King’s Kids<i> program began
at the beginning of the pandemic,</i>

<i>As churches closed their doors,</i>

<i>there was a need for more
children’s programming.</i>

<i>Within a week of their
first brainstorming meeting,</i>

<i>a small team recorded
the first episode of</i> King’s Kids<i>!</i>

<i>They have continued to put out
an episode every week since,</i>

<i>focused on discipleship and based
on the Primary Sabbath School lesson.</i>

<i>They’ve produced more than 100 episodes!</i>

If you came to our house,

you would see it’s been
converted into a studio.

We have a control room,

a studio, which is where we are
at the moment,

we have hundreds of puppets,

and lots of characters,
lots of children,

and a lot of people that are helping
to support and be a part of this project.

Getting right to the heart of families,

and how we can connect them

and develop their relationship 
with Christ.

Kimberly and Rob
show that in everything they do,

in the way they treat us 
as their staff,

in the way they support us,

and in the way we challenge each other

to move forward with the projects 
that we’re working on.

<i>The feedback has been
overwhelmingly positive,</i>

<i>and now God has put 
a new project on their hearts.</i>

The King’s Kids program
that we’re currently producing

is a real discipleship one,

which is trying to make
a difference to children

that already know something about God.

But there’s a project
that we’re working on

and developing at the
moment called, “The Rescue”

which is going to be 
a real evangelistic project

for children and families
that don’t know about God,

that haven’t been brought up in church,

that don’t know about Jesus,

and the only time they’ve heard
about God is in slang language.

They’re the ones 
that we really want to reach.

What we’ll be doing is
taking the story of salvation

and looking at God as the rescuer,

somebody who sees us,
who loves us,

and has a plan for us,

and how throughout time,

He has laid out this plan 
to come and rescue His people.

This project is something

that will be available free 
on multiple platforms.

We’re really hoping to reach out

and connect with families 
across the world.

<i>This quarter,</i>

<i>a portion of your 13th Sabbath Offering</i>

<i>will help support the creation 
of</i> The Rescue,

<i>a three season series
that travels through time</i>

<i>and focuses on different aspects 
of</i> The Great Controversy,

<i>and how God has intervened
to rescue His people.</i>

<i>There’s so much behind-the-scenes work</i>

<i>that is put into a project like this.</i>

It’s been a huge step of faith 
all the way through.

Sometimes we’re not quite sure

where the next bit of
funding is going to come from,

where the next bit of equipment 
is going to come from.

The extra puppets, the sets,
the design, cameras, lighting.

There’s so much involved.

That’s what we need to continue
to produce high-quality kids’ content.

Without the help of people like yourself,

that wouldn’t happen
as well as it does.

We need everybody to jump in behind us

and to support us with your funds, 
with your offerings.

<i>Thank you for planning a generous
13th Sabbath Offering this quarter</i>

<i>that will help share the love of Jesus</i>

<i>with kids across the South Pacific 
and around the world!</i>
