Castle Rock Volunteers Rally for Loading Container to Romania
Fourteen volunteers from Orphan Grain Train Castle Rock loaded 1,428 boxes of clothing, blankets, coats, bedding and linens and clothing accessories. This load, destined for Romania also included 14 bicycles and 51 pieces of medical equipment. Not pictured are Larry Drees, Nancy and Jim Snyder. The truck driver, Gabriel Diaz did a great job of helping load this container in a record time of 1 hour 35 minutes.
A special “thank you” to all the other volunteers who pick up the bags of clothing, sort the clothes, and pack the clothes and accessories into boxes.
We pray that these items will be a blessing to the needy people in Romania.
And if we know that He hears us in whatever we ask, we know that we have the requests that we have asked of Him.
I John 5:15 ESV
