Castle Rock Volunteers Load for Latvia
On June 17, 2026, eleven Orphan Grain Train Castle Rock volunteers loaded 1,239 boxes of clothing, 107 pieces of medical equipment, and 13 bicycles into a container headed to Latvia. Not pictured are Erica Clark and Kelly Head.
Thank you to all the other OGT volunteers who collect and sort the clothing, plus pack the boxes making shipments like this possible.
We pray that these goods make life in Latvia better. Thanks be to God!
The Lord is my light and salvation-whom shall I fear? The Lord is the stronghold of my life-of whom shall I be afraid?
Psalm 27:1 NIV
