This pandemic has literally struck our hearts, bodies, minds and souls for most Americans and people across the globe. There are over 1.000 cases on the Navajo Nation alone at this point and growing.
We are so thankful for the bleach, soap, hygiene supplies, food, clothing and other items that we were able to distribute starting last week, with YOUR help. It takes a village, or in this case a world of Believers, to act and show their faith at work. You DID that!! God made a way where there was no way, Isaiah 43:19. Praise His Holy Name. But there is more work to do.
As we approach our semi annual May Distribution, we are encouraged to note that this will look like Covid Relief part 2, or Covid 2.0! We will not be inviting most of the missions and pastors into our facility to keep them safe, but will be distributing to them as we did last week, by delivery truck to an outdoor location. The Covid virus has made a big run at the Navajo Nation specifically and they will need more soap and bleach to keep the virus at bay. We strongly encouraged the missions and pastors to share the resources that we delivered to everyone in need, some places haven't had any cleaning supplies available for 6-8 weeks, so this is paramount in controlling the spread. Of course, this adds to the expense for Wings of Faith and our partners to move the supplies to their areas.
Many thanks to our partners at Native American Emergency Relief for half a semi truck load of bleach in one gallon containers. Hundreds of these were delivered last week along with soap and other supplies. NAER also got a box truck load of fresh food to go with the deliveries! Praise God! Operation 29:11 added some non perishable food too and helped with fuel money! Clothing came from our very faithful donors at Stussy and Obey, toothbrushes from Global Grins, pajamas from the PajamaProgram, it's truly amazing! Jehovah-jireh
On top of all of that, we are set to receive up to 500 pairs of shoes early in May to distribute to those in most need from Soles4souls.org. And on top of that, or actually underneath, Bombas Clothing is providing new socks, see bombas.com.
