BUSES International Weblog

Today, a 40-foot shipping container (a semi-trailer full) left BUSES International headed for San Salvador, El Salvador. It is filled with donated food, clothing, shoes, hygiene items, blankets, toys and BUSES’ Christmas Shoebox-gifts.

Missionaries Don and Terry Triplett of King’s Castle Ministries are waiting to distribute them to victims of Hurricane Ida. There is still need among the people, and these relief supplies will make a huge impact.

Below are a few pictures of the donated items as they were stored in our warehouse and a few pictures of the items being loaded into the container.

Additional pictures can be found on our website.

Praise God for everyone who responded in some way to make this effort possible. Please pray God will make the supplies effective in displaying His love to the people of El Salvador.

We are so excited to announce the completion of Unit # 80, a street ministry unit for Heaven Train.  This unit will operate in the Cleveland, Ohio USA area to share the Gospel with literally thousands of children each year.

We wanted to let everyone know the Team has arrived back home safely from the Christmas Shoebox trip.

Once they get some much-needed rest, we will get some details about the trip posted.

Thank you, again, for your constant prayer and support for the Team while they were ministering in Mexico.

The Team is back in the United States and heading back home!  We will get some details of the trip posted shortly.

As always, thank you for your prayers and support.

We received a message from Tom that at around 8:40 pm (EST), the team reached their Texas destination.  They will cross the border into Mexico in the morning.

As much as we prepare for crossing the border (paperwork, letters, emails, inventory / manifests and other required documentation), there is always some uncertainty about us being allowed to cross.  In years past, we have needed a miracle; and this year is no different.  The same God who has caused chains to be cut and gates to be opened is able to do it again!!

Please pray that the team will be able to cross the border with the shoeboxes without difficulty or incident.

We are pleased to announce that the Shoebox Team left Lorain and is on their way to Mexico!  Please pray for safe travel and smooth entry across the border.
