Orphan Grain Train Central Nebraska loaded for Panama on Thursday, October 29th. This shipment will assist those people impacted by the 7.7 magnitude earthquake that occurred in early October. The OGT branch purchased 73 heavy duty tarps to help with emergency coverings.

Clothing for men, women and children are also in this container. Thank you, OGT Central Nebraska volunteers for putting this important load together for the immediate need.
We know that the whole creation has been groaning as in the pains of childbirth right up to the present time. Not only so, but we ourselves, who have the first fruits of the Spirit, groan inwardly as we wait eagerly for our adoption to sonship, the redemption of our bodies.
Romans 8:22-23 NIV
