 Hello David Digger Hernandez here and Steven Moctezuma and we have some very exciting news for you the studio is finally finished Now what a lot of people don't actually realize is that this project was three years in the making the first year We raised the monthly support needed to cover all of the costs associated with running a studio on a regular basis The second year we spent raising all the one-time costs associated with creating this studio the renovation the equipment Etc. Then the third year was actually the most frustrating year. This is where we had the resources We had the monthly cost. We had our location But it took us so long in the permit phase because the city didn't quite know what to do with us It was such a unique operation. They didn't know where we fit in the zoning so that took about nine months going back and forth with the city and then another four months of actual construction building the set and the lighting and all those little details that go into that and that Totals a three-year project So everything that you see in that set was hand-built hand-painted Handcut hand-carved. There was nothing that was fabricated or prefabricated Everything you see in there was hand-built and let me tell you it is beautiful It is amazing and we are so thankful that it was done beautiful custom job And actually I still remember you me Mr. Timothy lay and our lighting guy all sat down at a restaurant and we came up with the concept We have a 3d rendering that we created from that drawing and the finished product is actually very close to that 3d render We actually sat down and we were eating. What was it lunch? We were eating lunch and we actually sketched it on a little piece of paper so when somebody walks in To our media center what they're going to do is they're going to pass the sign out in the front door That says encounter TV studios by the way that dove logo that a lot of people see is a two-fold logo It's fire and it's a dove and those are two symbols of the Holy Spirit Then they're going to enter into the foyer where they see our healing history wall Many of those who got anointed for the healing ministry. You'll see a picture of Steve You'll see a picture of myself both of those photos were taken at hungry generation church And that was one of our favorite places to visit so we just had to put those moments on the wall Let's see a picture of Nick Tarina also Kim Clement that was something that you wanted to add in there Yes, so the reason I wanted to put the Kim Clement photo up obviously we have the healing generals of faith I wanted a worship general of the faith that I take a lot of inspiration from so I chose The late Kim Clement man his ministry has touched not only my life, but digs life And I think everybody here at the studio So you'll get to see a really awesome photo of him when you guys enter as well Next you'll see our donor wall and this wall features the names of every single Individual who gave to project ETV whether you gave a dollar whether you gave a thousand dollars whether you gave whatever Your name is featured on this wall. It's our way to commemorate your Participation in what God is doing in this ministry and we're very grateful for you We're very grateful that you partner with us and we never take for granted our partners in ministry who help us accomplish the will of God And then you will enter into the main studio So this place looks amazing right now, but before we got in here and did all the work. It wasn't so amazing Yeah, so when we first got here, I mean if you can imagine it there was dingy blue carpet everywhere And you didn't like the carpet No, I was not a fan of the carpet or the ceiling tile it looked like the ceiling tiles haven't been changed for years and With faith with a little bit of elbow grease a little bit of hard work We were able to transform this place into what you see today The editing room was just all carpet and old ceiling tile and just dirty walls the green room the same thing the The foyer the same thing that warehouse was just a warehouse and now it is a TV studio Remember when we first got the keys? I do remember when we first got the keys That was an amazing and kind of frightening experience because again when you walk into this place It was not what it is today. So why was it frightening for you when you first got the keys? So I think it was frightening because it was a massive step of a massive leap of faith that I was not really used to and I think we had the vision we had the goal We didn't understand how we would get there But we knew we would get there and we stayed faithful and committed and kept working at it kept working at it And it is what it is today. I mean it's amazing and beautiful here and there were moments where we just didn't think it would work That I can recall a certain moment where the construction workers were laid on everything The city was coming down against us The landlord was giving us a hard time our neighbors were Incredibly loud and I was walking around the studio, which was not even finished not even near being finished We couldn't even begin work in the warehouse because the city had tied our hands for the time being and I remember just thinking What did I get myself into? What did we get our team into? But God is faithful and we pushed through those seasons of doubt We pushed through those times where we thought it wasn't gonna work like Steve said We took that big step of faith and God came through So we just want to say from the bottom of our hearts on behalf of the entire ministry team Thank you Thank you for standing with us Thank you for taking this step of faith alongside of us And thank you for helping us spread the gospel of Jesus Christ in the power of the Holy Spirit all around the world through events and Now a new level of media and we again want to say thank you so much We're gonna reach so many more people with this facility and you are a part of it.
