Two More Loads and a Crew of Seven Bring Support to Hyannis

The Orphan Grain Train fencing team began putting in new fence posts today in Hyannis, Nebraska where the Morrill and Minor fires blazed through the Sandhills only a few months ago. The crew, which left Norfolk on Monday, June 8th, delivered a load of hedge posts and a load of treated posts, which were distributed to local ranchers who carried them away on trailers and bale processors.

Commit to the Lord whatever you do, and he will establish your plans.
Proverbs 16:3 NIV
