AMATEUR VS. PROFESSIONAL SHIPPERS
What a site to behold. We were so proud of ourselves, just look at how uniform those boxes are and those beautiful, colorful numbers. We thought we were pretty hot stuff. Thanks to these Berg Company employees for moving our massive pile-o-boxes from our Mission Room to the Sacred Heart Medical Center loading dock.
Then we received the photos from Berg Company, our god-send of a shipping company ... Holy Cow Bat Man! Look at those lovely pallets, protective corner guards, that beautiful "saran wrap," and who wouldn't want to be strapped in like that. A swaddled baby never had it so good.
And it definitely paid off. We just received word that ALL of our supplies made it to Kigali, and in the same 7 pieces Berg Co. sent them in. If you recall from our Mission last year, missing supplies became quite an issue. We are still waiting to exhale, as they say. This week our supplies will be inspected by Rwanda Customs - cross your fingers, get on your knees and say a prayer, burn some candles and incense, cross your legs and say "ohmmmm", nod your head and twinkle your nose - we are prepared to do whatever it takes to get our supplies into the country! Go team go!
