Orphan Grain Train Norfolk’s container to Romania arrived safely in Suceava. The recipient sent photos of the distribution of items to the people in the community. Four bicycles, 70 boxes of blankets and clothing for men, women and children. Also included on this shipment were 132 boxes of Mercy Meals and diapers.
A letter from the recipient: Boghian Ghiorghita of Charity Foundation for the Blind in Romania.
“We are very happy to share with you these pictures of the distribution of packages from transport 2> bicycles, boxes of clothes, medical instruments to help with walking.
We also attach a video of the unloading of the packages in a fraternal community with our beneficiaries, where the pastor of the commune says a prayer of thanks for these boxes, for these gifts from you. A prayer of blessing on the people as well as on you who take care of us, repeatedly.
Blessings to you and all those who worked on this transport and made it possible for our people to receive these boxes from you.”
Blessings to you,
BOGHIAN GHIORGHITA
No king is saved by the size of his army;
no warrior escapes by his great strength.
A horse is a vain hope for deliverance;
despite all its great strength it cannot save.
But the eyes of the Lord are on those who fear him,
on those whose hope is in his unfailing love,
to deliver them from death
and keep them alive in famine.
Psalm 33: 16-19 NIV
