OGT Wisconsin Sends a Container to Republic of Georgia with a Blessing
Orphan Grain Train Wisconsin loaded and sent a container to Republic of Georgia – always with a prayer that it will be a blessing to the recipients who receive it. This container, that went out on Wednesday, September 16th, was filled with almost 1,000 boxes of clothing, shoes and accessories for men, women and children. It also contained over 180 boxes of bedding and ten sleeping mats. Many medical equipment items, bicycles, diapers and hygiene, school and sanitary kits were also included. And because of all the many people who put together children’s Christmas boxes, 40 boxes were also part of this shipment. Thank you, to all the volunteers who share in the preparation of the donated items, and those who volunteer to be there to load the container. Well done!
Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
Ephesians 4:4-7 NIV
