Another Successful Medical Night in Norfolk
The second medical packing night at the Orphan Grain Train Servant Center was another success. On Thursday, March 12th a group of people from Nebraska Nurses Honor Guard and another group from Elgin’s Bargain Box came to the warehouse to sort and pack medical equipment. Six bunkers of medical items were completed and are now ready to be used for shipment. Thank you, to everyone who came to do this tremendously needed task. Because there are volunteers who would like to be involved in this, the hours of this packing night will change starting Thursday, April 9th. The hours will be extended from 1:00-8:00 to allow people with conflicting schedules to be able to attend.
