Two OGT Castle Rock Containers Arrive Safely and are Shared with People of Latvia

Last fall, Orphan Grain Train Castle Rock sent two containers to the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Pampali, Latvia. Both of those loads arrived safely, and the recipients have already distributed most of the items. The items were shared with people in Pampali and Saldus. The containers were filled with clothing for men, women and children, medical equipment, blankets and linens and 60 bicycles! Pastor Ivars Eisaks, the recipient at the Evangelical Lutheran Church in charge of the distribution wrote to say that these items will be shared with families and communities across Latvia. The photos are of the unloading of the two containers in Latvia. Thank you, OGT Castle Rock for “preparing, loading, documenting and praying over these shipments.” – Pastor Eisaks
“I praise You because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; Your works are wonderful; I know that full well.”
Psalm 139:14
