ABOUT USSee below for a very motivating and touching story from Kirker Hospital in Niger. MX did the shipping for 2 MedShare containers there as well as several containers of pharmaceuticals from MAP International in Brunswick, Georgia. This little boy, we will call "Little Issa" (Issa is his real name). He came to me some time back with a serious upper eyelid tumor, distorting his vision by deforming his cornea and would have been blind in that eye in a few more months, had his parents not brought him in to see me. As you also can see he was rather undernourished at the start, but again, as you can see, we took care of this. I saw him in the office and administered a MAP supplied, mild, overall sedative and a local MAP supplied eyeball anesthetic. After a couple of minutes I used MEDSHARE supplied sterile drapes, gloves and surgical eye instruments (without these specialized eye only instruments that Medshare supplied, the surgery could not have been done with the hospital's then abdominal only surgical instruments) Eye instruments are delicate as you can imagine and general surgical instruments are much larger and bulkier and dangerous to try and use in a delicate eye operation. (I used to do all sorts of eye operations, but have mostly quit it all now) After the operation, he was given MAP supplied eye and general antibiotics and pain relievers and hospitalized with a Medshare supplied bandage eye patch on him. (The tape was local) His recovery was uneventful and we followed his eye progress and filled him full of nutritious foods to combat his under nutrition. He then made a nice recover from both his eye problem and under nutrition. He went home with good vision in both eyes and a much healthier and well nourished baby boy. Bill Pls make sure missionary exp quotes this as they were so very helpful last time. Thanks jim
Jim Lanning Thank you very much for all your support it has helped us a lot. Sincerely
Giorgi Robakidze We are very impressed, grateful and satisfied with the level of service MX shipping provided to Monigros specially with inspection. It helps to have an experienced FF.
Henry Elese Lokala Dear Josh This is to thank you and acknowledge receipt of the consignment commercial documents in regard to the donation from Project C.U.R.E of medical equipment and supplies. By copy of this communication we would like to thank all of you for the efforts that have enabled us to receive this third 40ft container of medical supplies and equipment. Many lives will be reached and saved through your support. We look forward to continued support since we reach some of the most poor communities in Uganda. Asante sana (Thank you very much). Mungu ababariki (God bless you) Ronald and Agatha Loretta, Thanks for remembering about our guests! 5 ladies from the Cameroonian Women’s Association of Georgia are coming to speak about the need for this medical aid in Cameroon and be present for the “send-off” of the container as it leaves the MedShare doors.
Amanda Paniagua Thanks Henry you have been great to work with!
John Gray Greetings, I would just like to pass on my THANKS and appreciation to one of your employees…Melissa Holmes. My church put together a container that is currently being shipped to Zambia , Africa . We as a church, and I as an individual, had never done this before. I need to tell you how patient, understanding, and professional Melissa was as she literally walked me through this process step-by-step. I hit her with a wide variety of questions and she always responded quickly and clearly. I was never in the dark. She is an asset to the company and I wanted to make sure I passed that on. THANK YOU Melissa!
Mark DeNooy YOU ARE THE BEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WOWWWW!!! Thank you.
Susie Hayden Thank you for the years you have been doing this work. Your office has always been a great resource for us. The foundation I work with is now ready to go back to Cameroon.
Charlie Engram Melissa, Thank you so very much for your help. It is so exciting to think things are really on their way. I must admit, the paperwork was a real challenge for me! I didn't realize how time consuming it would be, and I was so exhausted from all the actual physical work of getting things ready to load that I sort of staggered through the last stage! It was also a bit of a problem with people thinking it was ok to bring things on the day of packing, despite being told that was not the way to do it! But they need things so desperately at Todee, that we didn't want to miss sending anything that was available. And overseas shpments are in a category of their own. We were in the Foreign Service for years, so I have familiarity with the packing end of things, but other than the numbering of the boxes and the importance of the inventory, I was a novice. We are excited at the variety and amount of things we were able to send, and most thankful for all the support we received from so many people. Your organization has been fantastic, and we are very grateful. The Lord continues to smile on the Todee Mission School! Most sincerely, Mary van Son Just returned from a P.E.T. distribution in Kolkata, India this week. Please see attached photo of a disabled man in Kolkata who received a P.E.T. A picture is worth a thousand words, right?
Von Driggs Dear Friends, It is late evening in Mingeli and I am back at home after a long day. We just finished a special session with the staff where we blew up a lot of crackers and I can still hear many more which will continue till late in the night. This morning, we were greeted with the second trcuk landing up. Immediately after morning prayers everybody got together and we had the truck unloaded. Everything arrived safe and all the furniture is fine. One set of shelves did have trouble and that can be fixed. The OR light glass was broken but that too is being worked at immediately. The lights have been checked and in a day or two we will be having them up in OR I. The bassinetes are great and I look foward to a 8 bed nursery. They are exactly what we wanted and I could not buy them here even if I wanted to. I would like to thank many who made this shipment possible and I know that there has been so much trouble along the way for which I am sorry, but I would like to say a deep thank you to all of you. Those days at the port with Constance ringing me up to ask for help from Digna and Joe, let alone the way in which we were donated these supplies all say one thing. It is God's will that these things are here and it is no our responsibility to use these gifts for His Glory here in Mungeli. So see the enjoyment and gratitude in which these gifts were recieved, I would like to attach these pictures on this email.
Blessings and do keep in touch. Dear Mike, It is truely a pleasure to work with those of faith! God is our employer and he makes things happen! The price looks within reason. This move may not take place until October. Will keep you posted. Please hold on file. Looking forward to receiving the LCL rate from Jodie
In the will of God....always! Stella To the AACL Cyber Café Prayer group Andre is excited. All boxes arrived intact. You guys did very good. You could form a shipping service. These pictures indicate the folks in Douala are very proud of what they have. Thank you very much and thank you Lord. Hi John, I see that the shipment arrived earlier today. Thanks very much John and Missionary Expediters.for pressing and making this happen. With 4000 already dead in Zimbabwe from the cholera epidemic, and the delays at origin, a quick transit time was imperative. This undoubtedly is a lifesaving shipment. This shipment seems to have a special blessing on it!
Again many thanks, Dear Melissa,
Well done! This shipment seems to have a special blessing on it!
Thanks and best greetings from You are one of the best accounts in Safmarine.
Steve Powitsky Hello Henry, Thank you for being faithful to keep us all posted on the progress. We thank for your help and the arrival.
Von Driggs Dear Henry, Thank you so much for this and all that you do for us. It is actions like this that reaffirm why I enjoy working with you so much.
Thanks, Henry, I wanted to thank you for all you’re help in dealing with this shipment, its not always easy when dealing with time sensitive issues and delayed responses but we’ve always been able to rely on you and the other there at Missionary Expediters.
Take Care, Hello Henry, That's great news! Thanks for your follow through, we appreciate your assistance.
Sincerely, Gentlemen, Thank you for all your help on this - particularly your professional and reassuring communication with Gillian. You've both come off as knights in shining armor!
David Andrews Thanks Henry and Joe, You gentlemen are so efficient and helpful.
God bless, Thanks Henry Get the other docs to you soon.
Steve Bostian I have great faith in your organizations follow through and commitment to doing your work well. Not everyone has that trust.
Von Driggs Joe, I just want to thank you for being so patient........I appreciate all you do. Thanks again.
Gwen Richardson, Sr. International Coordinator Loretta, Good morning and MANY thanks for your help to make this change! Your due diligence is appreciated.
Regards, Thank you for such great service! I appreciate it.
Sincerely, Thank you Henry - I appreciate your thorough investigation as well a your commitment to smooth out the kinks for future shipments. A very blessed Christmas to you also.
John Littell Dear Emanuel, Greetings from Springfield! We appreciate all the hard work and going the extra mile that we have always received from Missionary Expediters over the years. You are truly a blessing to us and all of our missionaries.
Many Blessings, Many thanks for all your assistance. Yes, we were notified by the receivers that the container reached it's final destination and was unloaded successfully. They were very happy to receive! Have a wonderful Christmas!
Thanks, Just another update ... The vehicles have arrived, and are at the Seeds of Hope House to be off-loaded from the trucks tomorrow. There were delays at the border, the weigh bridge, drivers missing, trucks not starting etc., but they are there!
Blessings, [IMAGE][IMAGE] Dear friends, Don't worry the volcano in the background is not active its the ones to the South East and South West we need to worry about. We're very proud to see the commitment, hard work and compassion our workers display to help children with disabilities. Most of them grew up with either spina bifida or polio themselves so they know first hand what children are facing living with a disability in Central America. Within a few weeks we'll be setting-up 4 of these ladies with industrial sewing machines in their homes. 3 of them are single mothers that need to care for their children. One is not a mother but lives in a town that is not very wheelchair accessible. So it works best for her not to have to commute. However, she will be attending the annual Hope Haven camp in Chimaltenango next week. This is the highlight of the year for the adults, youth and children that participate in the 3 different camps Hope Haven sponsors every November. Mil gracias for your support! Adios from Guatemala,
Mark Richard Thanks so much, Mike. Quick, excellent, and a good price.
Yours in Him, Thank you for the documents. I will send the other copy to our custom broker tomorrow. Thanks for all the help and may the good Lord continue to bless you and the ministry there. We will be leaving Florida this coming Saturday. God bless and please do extend our regards and thanks to all there at Missionary Expediters.
The TRUMPO FAMILY Thank you for all that you do to help us. I know that you field a great deal of calls from me. When I travel, email is difficult. You and your team are the greatest. You make my ministry so very easy. Again, thank you for all that you do. I remain . . .
YOUR MISSIONARY TO THE POOR, Thanks for your quick and accurate rates. This is very important to us.
Have a Great Day! Thanks Nelly and Maia, we’re going ahead as planned……. If anything changes AGAIN……I’ll let you know. You gals have been such troopers…..You deserve big hugs and accolades!
God bless you and thank you. Melissa, Thank you for all of you work in this matter. My things arrived last Tuesday and everything arrived in good condition. I was able to clear them in customs in a few hours. Thanks again for your help.
Blessings, Thank you all for all you have done and I will keep you posted about what is happening. It is with great love to see how excited people are with all that comes out of the trucks. We thank God for all that you have done and I know it will go a long way to help many for years ahead.
Blessings, I just want to say "Thank you!!" so much for your help in getting my shipment to Thailand. You know, Mike, you were very patient with this old gal, and I do so appreciate it. Thank you, Melissa, for helping me locate the shipment in Thailand. The receiving agent wanted MORE money to receive and ship it upcountry than what you charged me to pick it up and send it. Even with the strike at the dock, I was able to get everything in good order. What a blessing you are to the Christian community and those they serve. Incidentally, the timing was perfect. I had no intention of buying a home, but felt the need to ship some stored things to Thailand. When I returned to Thailand, God made a way for me to get my own home. So many of the things in the shipment will have a permanent place as I plan on living here until I meet Jesus face to face.
Karen Welker Thank you very much for all your assistance. Have a great day!
Jessica Jenkins Dear Melissa and Denise, We have received our container and have unloaded all of or belongings. Obviously, it will take long time for us to unpack every box. But so far we dont have any damage and I doubt we will. Our experience working with you guys has been over our expectations. Maybe because we had bad experience hiring company to do this job before we thought about you. I expect this to be your standard!........Thanks for you awesome service! If we know of any missionaries going anywhere, we will let them know about Missionary Expediters. I am so glad that we thought about asking our organization Global Outrach, who they hire to send their containers.
God bless, Ms. Holmes, I thought that you would like to know that all forty-nine boxes of our shipment arrived last Friday. None of our possessions suffered any damage along the way. I am especially pleased to have access again to my books. They are the tools of my work as a professor. Even so, I plan to donate them to the library here rather than send them back someday to the United States. To modify a familiar saying about Las Vegas, what goes to Taiwan stays in Taiwan. Thank you for your assistance through this process.
Dr. Dean R. Ulrich Dear Maia, I went to your website… It was very nice, and sooooooooooooo USER FRIENDLY! I finally get to put a face with the voices I’ve met over the years! It was nice to see Jack and Debbie….. and you too Maia. Your website was terrific and covers so much – Great Job!
Sincerely, Dear Loretta, Thank you for all of your assistance through this shipment, anytime there were concerns, you were right on it. I can’t tell you how much that means to us and our missionaries. We are very grateful for all your help!
Many Blessings, Thanks Mike... We appreciate your efficient help and wonderful assistance.
Running with Endurance (Hebrews 12:1-3),
Looks great!!
David Andrews Thank you Henry, Thank you for your extra help with this shipment and all it’s details. My missionary in Angola has emailed and reported that the container was released yesterday and all was well. Thank you for helping us through this entire shipment. You have been a great help to us during this whole process.
God bless you, I wanted to write and thank you for all you did to help me get my goods to Cape Town, South Africa. We unloaded the container yesterday, less than two weeks after I arrived here. Everything was intact, and insofar as I can tell undamaged. Thanks for every courtesy afforded me as we corresponded and arranged for shipment. The original documents were handed to us as we were on the phone arranging for customs clearance. God's timing is perfect. It has already been my privilege to recommend Missionary Expediters to another missionary, and I will continue to do so. Thanks again for your patience, help, clarifications, efficiency, professionalism, etc.
Gratefully, Henry, Thank you SO much for your patience and help! We certainly could not have done this without you! Again, thank you for all your hard work!
Blessings, Dear Henry, Just a quick note to thank you for the excellent work you did in getting our stuff shipped to Calcutta. The container reached the port here in the second week of Feb. The only problem was that the shipping yard was full of literally tens of thousands of containers that looked just like ours; and the port personnel put them down randomly. So it was "lost" and it took our agent's workers a week of walking through the yard to find it. But this was no fault of yours; it's just a Calcutta thing. By the third week of Feb it was delivered and unpacked at our house.
Thanks again for the help, Outreach in Jerusalem, May 2008 — Large tent shipment in 2 x 40 ft sea containers for Neil Blake, One in Christ Ministries Dear Friends,
From the very beginning this container traveled with a black cloud overhead. Nothing seemed to go right with this. I remember Joe frantically trying to catch up with the container full of trash as it headed towards the west coast and the trucking company working to get the boarding of the vessel canceled. I remember the conversations withVernon trying to find out what he sent where and why he was sending trash to Jordan. I remember the terror when I called MCS and found out that my container was gone out in the middle of the ocean. Was really happy when Maia told me it got turned around and then my thoughts went to the monster bill we would have for a truck load of trash. My heart sank when Henry told me I would need to clear customs and get a broker in Houston and then there was the D word demurrage. How calming Jack was when he received my frantic call yesterday. And then bright sunshiny day came the words from Maia, we got the ocean freight waived. Wow what a wonderful sentence. Ran to tell Luke and we were just elated. The list of companies that have helped us that significantly is small and MX is right on top of that list. We were sitting trying to figure how we were going to resolve this and whether we could afford to alienate the publisher by demanding they pick up the cost for the mistake when your call came.
Regards, Dear Debbie and Loretta, This is to inform you of a happy occasion. The 40' cargo container that we deposited in CSX rail head at Kansas City, MO on April 10 or so, has finally cleared customs and been released to us in Ouagadougou, the capital city of Burkina Faso, West Africa. (Just short of 90 days). The final hurdle was the second signature on the release forms. The General Director of Customs was relieved of duty for corruption and the new person was slow to start processing paperwork. We understand that warrior angels guarded His goods along the way. The cargo, that is, clothing, tools to teach mechanics and welding, textbooks, blankets, and of current importance, a months supply of food for the orphans, are gratefully received. Thank you for all your professional help and personal patience during my learning period. May many blessings overtake you.
In Jesus name, The shipment arrived, thank you so much for all the support. I will inform anyone trying to ship cargo internationally to use your services.
Sincerely,
Hi Henry,
Susie Hayden
Wow, Debbie!
Phil Melton We have written several grants using your rate quotes. We hope that we'll be recipients of the grants for shipping and will have that business available. Thanks for your services. You really have taken the group to an awesome level. Thanks for the news and service.
Pastor Richard & Rose Edkins
Hello MX/CL team,
Thanks again for all of your hard work, Thank you all SO MUCH for walking with us through this adventure. We really appreciate the care/concern you gave us as we went along; even when, especially when, things got so sticky on the other end of things. May God bless you as you continue to do this valuable work.
In Christ Jack, Greetings. After over 18 yrs in Africa, it looks like we will be returning to the States this fall. You have helped us from the beginning in 1990 with our shipments to Africa and now I need to ask if you can help us return.
Regards, Well praaaaaaaaaaaise the Lord!!!! Thank you and if you hear anything new give me an e-buzz. Nice to have worked with you.
Debbie Watts Hello Henry. Thank you very, very much for all the efforts and professional expertise that you and your colleagues have demonstrated in handling our container details. The container arrived its destination last week! I thank you all.
Sammy Murimi, Director
Jack,
Blessings Thank you VERY much for the information.....Thank you VERY much for being generous with your time and resources.
Rebekah Bronson Walker Here we are standing in front of the boxes of tracts and books, from left to right Pastor Kefa Phri, Pastor Benson and Pastor Stephen Banda. Thanks so very very much for these tracts and books they are a great blessing to the work of the Lord here.
Pastor Stephen The big excitement during break was the arrival of our container. We were so relieved to find that everything was in great shape.
In Christ. Dear Friends, That is awesome information. I can not even imagine what would be good enough way to express my thanks for all your help during this giant (for us) order of books. I am so glad to be working with all of you because I appreciate your dedication and the integrity with which you handle all our work, from the smallest shipment to many many containers. It’s nice to have you guys in my corner; you make me look like a hero. Plain old thank you is just not good enough but I know there is that special something out there that belongs in the MX office to say it properly. Please let everyone know how much I appreciate them and there good efforts on our behalf.
Best to all. Have a wonderful weekend. Henry, Thank you again for bending over backwards and helping with this shipment.
Sincerely,
Maia,
Donnie King GREAT Service! Once again you changed the direction of my day! :>0
thanks again, Andie and the guys on the warehouse floor, I very much appreciate all that you do on behalf of Rosslyn Academy. I have met some of you on two different occasions when I came to MX to go through our inventory. I enjoyed meeting you and felt warmly received. I have seen the good work that you do not only for us, but also for other missions groups around the world. It is nice to know that we have such a great group of people working behind the scenes in supportive rolls.....We appreciate you, and we value the work that you do.
Dan King Hi Maia and Henry - Thanks very much for your involvement with this situation. Once again, please accept World Vision's thanks for your assistance with this matter.

Stephen Tester Thanks for your help on this matter. You and Denise are great friends to IBP!
Lynda Frazier Thank you and MX for all the help that you gave to us. You and all involved were absolutely wonderful. You made a super daunting process (especially when I was alone stateside) manageable and relatively stress free. I cannot express how helpful you were to our family. May God bless you personally and in your business endevors
Teresita and Ndibongo family Thanks man you are always the best! Looking forward to see in May.
Weretaw Berhanu Thank you Joe. I passed this on to William. I have been very satisfied with the service you have given us, and please feel free to pass this email on to your boss. I would also happy to be a reference for any prospective clients you have.
George Smith Thank you so much for the informative reply. Having such information really helps and hopefully allows us to make better decisions.
Best, Dear Maia, thanks so very much. We all really appreciate your excellent service.
God bless. Thank you Ms. Judy. You have been of excellent help to me in this whole process. I will let Dr. Christie know of your efficiency and wonderful collaboration, so he could gladly recommend Missionary Expediters to all his acquaintances. THANKS!!!!!!!!!
Denise
THANK YOU SO MUCH MS. JUDY YOU HAVE BEEN OF TREMENDOUS HELP!!!!

Hi Jenny,
Pat DeVoe, RN, BSN
Henry,
Bob and Bette Sue MacIsaac Thank you ….Thank you…. Thank you! All the shipments in the last 2 weeks… I have lost track of how many… you arranged perfectly! The trucking company you have used is punctual and actually a little early which works out great. I just want to Thank you again… and look forward to working with you all next year.
Tammy “I am happy to send you just a few of the photo's that have been taken thus far. The NGO is quite happy with the wheelchairs and with the distribution process. They asked me to communicate with you that they have already given out 192 wheelchairs. During their visit in the villages they have found handicap individuals who have never been able to be out of their house before. They found one man who was so excited about his new wheelchair that he insists on the youth of the village to push him into the center of town to that he can be with the other older men and talk together with them everyday. The youth are happy to do this for him. The village leader deeply and sincerely thanked everyone involved for these wonder gifts. He said that the handicap people of his village have never ever been given such a good quality gift and a gift that can continue helping them by helping them to get out of the house and move around.”
Take care, Henry,
Thanks again for putting together our shipment to Okinawa. I have included pictures of the chairs set up in our temporary worship area and in storage.
Praise the Lord,
Henry,
George Hutchings Hi, Judy. The shipment arrived in good condition. Thank you! You guys did a fantastic job! Thank you so much!
Blessings to you! Thank you for your emails and prayers for my situation. We are so grateful for your help with our shipping situation and your sincere concern for me. We believe God has this situation in His wonderful hands and have felt the wonderful prayer support from many friends like you. What a great gift the Lord has given us in the Body of Christ. Thanks again for all your help. Your caring concern is going the extra mile, Thank you! We will be in touch.
Bob MacIsaac Thanks so much for you nice smiley face! You are going to blessing to work with. I'm so thankful that you have a kind spirit. It gets so hectic sometimes, I'm praying all will go soooooooooooooooooooo smoothly! Thanks for all your help.
God bless you with His abundant GRACE. :) Love how you signed off...... "Serving those who serve Him".... GREAT WORDS..... GREAT ATTITUDE! It's all for him
Brenda This is FANTASTIC! Thank you so much for all of this wonderful information. What a complex and exciting process to move these goods to Africa!
Jonathan Ramsey Good quote, you all are a blessing to our company. Having you there for logistics really helps our company.
Thanks, Lilu Negrut, a good Romanian brother living in Troy, Michigan recently donated his very nice 1993 Volvo tractor truck to a Romanian missionary serving in Germany, to monetize to fund a children’s camp in the Romanian countryside. Rather than shipping this truck to Germany to monetize, Missionary Expediters purchased the truck from him on Monday, September 24, 2007 to add to our small fleet. On behalf of him and Missionary Expediters, Thank you, Lilu! Henry, I wanted to thank you for all your help in resolving the recent Hungary and Kenya shipments. You went above and beyond -- thank you.
Ray Schmidt It really helps to talk to someone like you when you don’t have a clue about how something works and in this case spending a lot of money too. You are a blessing and very knowledgeable.
Vicky Smith Thank you so much, Maia. I cannot express how much I appreciate all of the work you have done for us, on this shipment and others.
Renée Beach Thank you for all your help with this and our other recent shipments. M.E. is the best!
Steve Watson Indeed, you customer service has been excellent and any time even in the near future, will recommend any body any time to ship with you.......I am more than willing to pay the minimum fee to be comfortable than paying less with any other carrier and the whole things turns out to be nightmare.
John Mashaka Maia, you're great!! Thank you for your patience with us and your understanding of relief logistics.
Rosemary Mehl This photo was taken in a town called Bale-Ginir a few bumpy hours outside of Addis Ababa [Ethiopia].

Hi Maia,
Lou Grasso Hi Maia - Great work again! This is much better than we had expected.
John Littell Thanks a lot! I have passed that to our finance people, the check should be ready by tomorrow.
Weretaw Thanks Maia, As far as I am concerned you guys are always above the competition. I can depend on you and I can't say that for everyone in the shipping business. Thanks for all you do.
Joel (Joey) Meredith, Director I really like Jack, admire the way he has been involved in the Humanitarian Aid industry and helped us throughout the years with such sincerity.
Jim Lanning
Dear Jack, Matt & all,

Debbie and Joe,
I sincerely hope that we can raise the money to be able to send more shipments this year. And I hope that I will have the opportunity to work with you again.
Sincerely,
Thank you [Missionary Expediters] for going the extra mile to help with this. Missionary [Expediters] has been wonderful to work with and the staff has been exceptional in their efforts with us.

Denise,
Blessings, Our 40' cube high container arrived Boquete successfully a week ago and we were very favorably impressed by the shippers. We used Missionary Expediters to ship from our front yard in Nashville, TN to Manzanillo (Colon). Allan PItti of IN AND OUT transported the container from there to a warehouse he knows in Panama City, where it went through customs smoothly and without incident. Allan hired a trucker and his helper to truck it to our front yard in Alto Boquete. The shipping experience with Missionary Expediters was exceptionally good with no problem whatsoever. The container was delivered to our front yard in Nashville, TN on a Friday morning and picked up on Monday afternoon. We loaded it ourselves with the help of a friend and a couple of strong young men we hired. Our container was delivered to us in Boquete an unbelievable 10 days later! The cost for Missionary Expediters was $3695.54, including $10,000 worth of insurance. The cost for Allan Pitti was $1150.00, including unloading at Alto Boquete. We tipped the driver and helper and 4 neighbors $20.00 each in addition to insure they would unload carefully and place each box in the proper room [Amended for space]
Sharon and Mickey James This is truly great news and a blessing for World Vision. We are so grateful for your assistance!
John Littell Thank you so much. Please know that your help is deeply appreciated.
Blessings, Thank you for making everything so easy for us. I will look forward to working with you again next year!
My best, Thank you for doing this with such short notice. Renee’ and I really appreciate the services that ME provides. Alan Missionary Expediters has been with Operation Christmas Child since the project was only a handful of containers. Today they handle the majority of all of our containers. Jack was there to teach us about things like how to value donated cargo for foreign importation, the multiple layers of bills of lading that are created for a shipment, destination costs, and who pays what. He has hung with us when foreign importation didn't go as planned. And he has always been patient and generous with us. Today, we have one of the largest and most complex export programs of any humanitarian aid organization. We have a full staff dedicated to exporting our GIK and getting it imported properly overseas and we rely on Missionary Expediters more than ever. They are partners more than vendors. And they are a ministry as truly as any out there.
Matt Gravley You go!!
Renée D. Beach
Hello again Jack,
Andrew Crawford Thanks again, Jack. We appreciate your expertise and guidance tremendously!
In Christ,

Hello!
Best regards,
Again, I hope you are doing well. Thanks very much for your advice. I look forward to working with you again for our next shipment this summer. Thank you so much [Missionary Expediters]! It is so wonderful that you are so on top of things! We really appreciate all of your effort! Kristin Good news. We got the vehicle out safely and in pretty good time. Thank you for all of your help. Blessings,
Jeremy Rhodes I appreciate you helping Jon. I knew that he would get the best arrangements from Missionary Expediters. I told him if you handled it he would not have to worry about anything. Your assistance is priceless! God bless.
