Our Container Arrived!


On March 17, our shipment arrived to Dyersburg, TN, all the way from Paraguay!  They told us it would take 6 weeks, and amazingly enough- it really did!  Everything was in great shape and all seemed to be there!


We unloaded it into a corner of the church activity center (aka gymnasium). 


The guys worked really hard and had the entire thing unloaded in 22 minutes!


We are so blessed that on a weekday, 11 men/guys came over to help us get it all unloaded.  We thought it would take an hour or so, but they did an amazingly fast job!  And several girls stopped by as well, but we just stood around and watched and let these men work their magic.


And the container had the exact same lock on the back door that it did when we closed it in Paraguay.  It was a special lock that had to be cut to be opened.  That assured us that no one had opened the container during the trip.  That, in and of itself, is an amazing thing!  God is good!  Now if we just had a house ready to put all of this stuff in.....
