Harvest Call, Minnesota North and Wisconsin Bring Beans to Benin
This is an example of people coming together as a group and each contributing what they can to accomplish good. Davis Wulf of Harvest Call out of Morris, MN provided the beans, Orphan Grain Train Minnesota North loaded the container and Orphan Grain Train Wisconsin paid for the shipment of 39, 720 pounds of black beans that were shipped to Cotonou, Benin on Monday, August 10. Five totes of 25 lbs. bags and thirteen totes of 2 lbs. bags of beans will help feed people in West Africa. Thank you, to all the people involved in putting this shipment together.
For we are the temple of the living God. As God has said:
“I will live with them
and walk among them,
and I will be their God,
and they will be my people.”
2 Corinthians 6:16 NIV
