And it's this beautiful portrait that I think they just purchased a few years ago for $191.3 million, if I remember correctly. And we're looking at it. And there's all these people that are looking at it. and everyone's taking pictures and video of it.
And you could hear the oohing and aah, it's so beautiful and blah, blah, blah. And I'm standing kind of to the side and I'm looking at it, but then I'm looking at all these people and I get so sad, so convicted and so sad and burdened watching it, because I'm watching all of these people film and video this.

And I just was so sad. I was remembering what we're going to do tomorrow and the next few days and all of these lives that are literally being purchased to be abused and rape. And I'm thinking, no, we're looking at this and what they're going through. And we're saying, this is the masterpiece? And I'm not trying to knock art. I'm just trying to say that pales in comparison to every one of you.

And so I heard her share a testimony about her sister. And so I told the team, hey, invite her and her family to be a part of Night to Shine. Can we welcome and celebrate them?
