Samaritan's Purse Shipment on the Way!!

Thanks to lots of different folks, a 20-foot container is on its way to Ocosingo. The container is filled with donations of medical equipment from the Helping Hands Ministry in Southern Pines, NC and Samaritan's Purse in Boone, NC and was shipped courtesy of Samaritan's Purse. Starfish Fund founder, Glenn Pierce, helped store supplies collected in late 2006, and Bill Herring from Boone helped organize the effort with Samaritan's Purse. From the most basic supplies like crutches and walkers to an x-ray machine, all will be a part of getting patient care started at Las Manos de Cristo Medical Clinic.

The container arrived in a port in Veracruz and is awaiting customs approval before being shipped the rest of the way to Ocosingo. Please pray with us that the customs approval is swift and without complication. We'll keep you posted on its arrival!
