Answering the Call for Help
“Please send hay.” The lack of rain for over a year prompted a call from Lori Mercer, Ministry director and part owner of Cornerstone Children’s Ranch in Quemado, Texas. Both Orphan Grain Train Wisconsin and Norfolk responded. OGT Wisconsin sent 38 bales of hay and 480 four-gallon bottles of water in late May, while OGT Norfolk just finished sending a second load of 32 bales of prairie hay.
“Dear God, we thank You and praise You for the many ways You provide for us. We humbly ask that You send rain to all areas that need it.”
