Loading containers headed for Ecuador



I watched Gordon work so hard to wrap and strap the 40 pallets that were sent in 2 containers to Ecuador. He worked for almost a week every day. The pallets had to be international pallets and so each piece of equipment had to be moved, wrapped and strapped on to it. The equipment had to itemized and listed on a bill of lading and then the pallet numbered and photographed. Each night he would come home so tired with his arms and body exhausted. The containers were filled with 18 pallets each with cargo valued over $50,000 each. They were picked up and tranported to Seattle on there way to Ecuador. We have prayed for safe arrival and their ease through customs. I know when they are opened the people will be overjoyed.
