Norfolk Loads Furniture and More for the Philippines

On Tuesday, July 28, Orphan Grain Train’s container to the Philippines was loaded with 40 folding tables, 44 waiting room chairs, 75 student chairs, and one church lectern. In addition, pallets of school and hygiene kits, Christmas boxes, peanut butter, and shoes and bags were included. Thirty bicycles, sleeping bags and sleeping mats were squeezed into this load. These kinds of loads are not the easiest to fit together, but the crew of nine men persevered through the heat of the morning. Thank you, to all the men who showed up to fill up this container and send it on its way.
If you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, “Move from here to there” and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you.
Matthew 17:20 NIV
