Maryland Sends 1,200 Samaritan’s Feet International Shoes to South Sudan
Last month, Orphan Grain Train Maryland loaded a 20,500-pound shipment to South Sudan. Clothing, shoes, medical durable equipment, hygiene and school supplies, sewing machines and supplies, fabric, paraments, and much more were included in this load. This shipment also included 1,200 pairs of shoes donated by Samaritan’s Feet International. A big “Thank You” to the loading team who made this gift to the people of South Sudan a reality. A huge “Thank You” to all the volunteers who tirelessly picked up, boxed, washed, repaired, sorted, packed, stored, and inventoried all that was shipped.
“Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men, knowing that from the Lord you will receive the inheritance as your reward. You are serving the Lord Christ”. Colossians 3:23-24
