Update La Gonave resupply

We had prayer for the guys at church today, it was moving. There have been generous donations and much prayer for this, it is impressive to see God and God's people moving here.

They are now in Albany planning to head to FL at 6AM. They will pack the container and leave Thursday.

Here at the "nerve center", all that remains is to get some information to the DS at 7 AM so he can wire the funds to the shipper and food supplier. I am working with other churches and groups to show them that they can ship food also, there is interest and I hope to help others do as we did. La Gonave needs more than this shipment to feed and treat those poor people.

I have spoken with Mark James (DS James' brother) who has a large church in Winter Haven FL. It is unclear to me exactly how they will mobilize goods to be packed in our container, but he is on it. His church has raised a goodly sum of money, so tomorrow AM we will discuss whether some of that (like most of it) can be used to pay for tetanus vaccine to be sent to the hospital with our guys. Either Russ Rider or members of the FL congregation will facilitate the prescription and other details. Please pray that we can get vaccine for the people, they will have many deaths without it.

Thanks again to all for their generosity and prayers. Keep praying, only the first step of the mission is done (funding) and there are many challenges ahead.

I'll keep the updates coming. Please contact me if you have questions/suggestions.
