OGT Helps Families in California
OGT is helping families that have lost everything
in the Los Angeles fires.
We are working with Pastor Ken Frese, a retired pastor in Los Angeles, CA. He is familiar with the area that has and continues to burn and knows many families there. We gave him $50,000.00 to share $1,000.00 checks to families that have lost everything. The Survival Money is for the families to use on immediate needs such as hotel, food, toiletries, etc. We are working on giving another $50,000.00 for victims of the fire. Please pray for these families that have lost so much and living in uncertainty.
If you feel it in your heart to support these families, please click on Donate Button below and write CA Fires in the comments section.
Or mail a check earmarked for CA Fires to:

OGT received the following Thank You emailed to us from a recipient of a $1,000.00 for fire relief aid:
Dear Orphan Grain Train,
I would like to thank for your generous support to help me navigate through this difficult situation toward ultimate recovery. Pastor Ken Frese, presented me with a check for $1,000.00. Given present conditions, it was like $10,000.00. It is a significant help to me. I did not know Pastor Frese before. We met in downtown Los Angeles. He kindly treated me to lunch at Philippe’s, a legend among Los Angeles’ many eateries. We had a wonderful and laughter filled conversation. It was uplifting for me and a much needed break from the constant filling out of forms and standing in lines that goes hand in hand in these situations.
I thank the Orphan Grain Train and Pastor Frese, so very much for your assistance. If you have any doubts, rest assured that your work is effective, needed and greatly appreciated.
Sincerely,
William
Thank you for your continued support and prayers for our ministry to reach those in need.
