We got our container today!! This is the container that will hopefully go all the way to Haiti. We just signed a rental agreement, but are hoping to buy it, for somewhere around $3000.
This is how all of our belongings are going to get to Haiti, along with a whole bunch of food from the Kids Against Hunger program in Springfield, MO. If you have never heard of them before, check them out at www.kids-against-hunger.org
So one quick story that was really cool about getting the container...the guy that delivered it was named David. He is a Christian, and goes to church in Webb City. He was a very nice guy, very interested in what we were doing. The whole time he was working on getting it unloaded, I was wondering if I should tip him. He was just the delivery man for the company, and I thought maybe I should give him a little extra. Well, when he got done, I was about to reach for my wallet, and instead he reached for his!! He pulled out a twenty, said "I know it's not much, but take this and use it for your mission. There needs to be more people like you in the world." I was truly humbled. Thank you David, for reminding me that every good and perfect gift comes from God.
