ANGELS IN OUR MIDST
Angels In Our Midst (World Changers)
They are high school and college students from different backgrounds and points across the country.
They're dispatched to different locations by the mission board of the Southern Baptist Convention.
These teams are on a incredible mission to change the world.
Voice of Janice Antoine; It was embarrassing to me because my home, I've been here 30 years and my home has always been looking real, real nice...until the hurricane damaged a lot of it.
For almost three years, Janice Antoine had waited and prayed for help to restore her dignity and her home. One Sunday, the World Changers appeared.
My name is Crystal Partaka. I'm 19 and I'm from Seguin, Texas.
My name is Robert Wynn. I'm from Caldwell, Texas and I'm 19 years old.
I'm Trey Tidwell. I'm 19 years old and I'm from Cullman, Alabama.
My name is Cassie Norwick and I'm from Jackson, Tennessee, it's about nine hours from here; very long drive.
This is just one small army of the 160 World Changers from across the country who are on their mission at 15 different sites in Pensacola.
Rachel Jacob, World Changer; We were established in 1990 to help disabled and elderly homes and to hopefully improve their life.
92 degree heat index at 7:30 in the morning; they're on the job. They take their charge to heart.
Cassie Norwick, World Changer; You know, in this life, everybody's out for what "I" can get, you know.
Some people don't understand sacrifice and you just have to be willing to give of yourself.
Josh Singleton, World Changer; Just trying to help someone who needed help with her paint, is chipping off. And so, we came and scraped it down and repainting.
As well as sweat equity, every participant has to raise between 300 and one thousand dollars to cover their travel and purchase materials for their job sites.
Ashley Teague, World Changer; I came, not with the expectation of what I got. I thought it was just going to be a lot of work but...
The feeling you get after just helping someone doing all this work, it's completely worth it.
When their week here is done, they hope they have been a witness through their work and that they have changed at least Mrs. Antoine's little corner of the world.
Mrs. Antoine; I'm gonna sit and pray with them and say, thank you. God sent y'all to me.
