WE MADE IT! 285,000 meals for Zambia!

Congratulations to everyone involved in the Children Feeding Thousands effort -- AND PRAISE THE LORD!
Today was a big day - we packed lots of meals and were able to ship the full load to Zambia!  Here is one of our FVL students from the Steering Committee closing the door to the container after our packing sessions!



The shipping container was picked up about 4 p.m. to be trucked to Chicago - and then to Norfolk on the East Coast.  From there it will cross the ocean to the seaport of Beira.  It takes about 6 weeks for the trip to be made!

Thanks to everyone who made this event possible - what a wonderful way to put our faith in action!
