Lithuania’s “Gabrielius” Feels and Shares the Support from OGT Wichita
Gabrielius in Vyziai, Lithuania received the recent shipment sent by Orphan Grain Train Wichita. Included in the load were blankets, medical equipment and supplies, sewing machines and fabric, hygiene supplies and school kits and supplies. And of course, bicycles.
This is a part of letter that was sent from the recipient of this load, “Gabrielius” director, Malda Milauskas,
“I am a priest of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Lithuania. Currently, I serve in five parishes, organize youth camp ” Vanagai “(500 children in one time).
The rehabilitation center “Gabrielius” was established in 2008. I actively participate in regional social and public activities, I am the chairman of the board of non-governmental organizations, and a board member in several small communities.
This allows me to feel and share the support received very widely and in various ways. The rehabilitation center has, thanks to the help of OGT, created a small and important material fund, which provides assistance where it is needed most, in case of disasters and the like.”
Thank you, OGT Wichita donors and volunteers for sharing, preparing and loading this container to Lithuania.
“Look to the Lord and His strength; seek His face always.”
