Ready... Set... GO!

I think on Monday, we will be off and running. Herbert, the pastor we will be working with, came back to Korogwe a few days ago. He and his wife came over last night for a brief visit. On Monday, we’ll begin work on getting the paperwork for the container. Africa Harvest of Hope filled a shipping container full of food and supplies for widows, orphans and the needy. In it was also donations for George and me. The container left California in February and is scheduled to arrive in Tanga (a port city in Tanzania about an hour away from Korogwe) in a week or so. Normally thousands of dollars in taxes must be paid in order for the container to be released. Last year, they were able to get a tax exemption saving lots of money. Herbert and George will be working on getting the tax exemption for this container as well. From what Herbert says, there is a ton of stuff to do in order to get that and it usually takes a lot of time (and patience!). They will have to travel a lot between Korogwe, Tanga and Dar Es Salaam. We really need your prayers. Please ask the Lord to work a miracle and grant us favor on the whole process.
