Update from La Gonave

We continue to work on the logistics of shipping, containers, and supplies. Caleb and Andy are just waiting for it to come together before they fly down to load the container.

If we can get a 40' container it will hold about 60,000 pounds of supplies. That works out to $.17 per pound shipping which is not bad. We have a list from Dan, most will be foodstuffs but some construction materials and clothing they requested. They asked to send enough food for the town since they otherwise will experience violence and looting.

The two problems we face -- and I ask for your prayers -- is the speed of funding and getting a schedule for departure from the shipper. The DS and Missions Director have been a blessing and a pleasure to work with. They are doing all in their power to expedite funding, they are also in contact with National on this matter.
