Praise God! Lincoln Load # OGT 2600 and Counting!

This is a reason to celebrate! On October 4th, Orphan Grain Train, Lincoln staged and packed their first international shipment. Load # OGT 2600 to Uman, Ukraine begins a new chapter for Lincoln. OGT team leaders Don and Connie Johnson, Randy Wilcox, James West, Jeff Bedke, Keith Thomson and Jim Carter were joined by Penue and John Hanus and Ukrainian friends Erika and Erik Bosovyk, Constantine Syniy, Olena Sonia and Volodymir Sunii. They shipped winter clothing, medical supplies and equipment, blankets and quilts, school chairs, sewing machines, 4 pallets of Mercy Meals and reusable feminine hygiene kits. Many thanks to Hanna Freudenburg, International Shipping Assistant, for her guidance.
Thank you, to all the volunteers who assisted in making this load happen on that beautiful fall day in Nebraska!
