Weekly update 22/21

The truck that was loaded on Thursday 20 May in Broek op Langedijk was unloaded on Monday 24 May in Breaza. It all went well again, the beds have gone to a care institution. The packages for Phoneo were also picked up immediately.

Here the link to photos.

Wednesday 26 May was a busy day, except for loading a truck (the 23rd in 2021) with destination Botosani, there were many pick-up jobs. Thanks to the efforts of our volunteers and the cooperation of Van den Heerik Transport, it all went well. On Saturday May 29, the truck arrived in Botosani without any problems and was unloaded there.

In Botosani, the construction of the Casa Ioana extension is progressing one step further. The distribution of aid supplies also continues. Last time I wrote about buying a cow for a gypsy family. Their cow had died unexpectedly and Cristi overheard this by accident. A cow has been bought, it seems to me a very good choice, a cross between a Jersey and a Romanian breed. Another special action by Cristi who also shows how he stands in life and looks after his fellow man.

Reghina from Ticau also sent messages about her distribution campaigns.

Henk Muller also sent pictures from Deja. Henk is in the Netherlands and regularly brings goods to Broek op Langedijk.

Next Wednesday we will load for Marghita and Ticau.

The worst seems to be over in Europe with the Covid-19 virus, in Romania it is now code yellow instead of orange like with us. So traveling is a little easier again.

Romania is a very beautiful country to visit. An example of this was broadcast on NPO 3. For those who missed it click on the link below.

On Tuesday, February 21, we were able to collect more than 3.000 kg of seed potatoes from farmers in the Wieringermeer, a nice gesture from these kind people. Henk Muller from Band can enjoy his garden projects again. There is also plenty for the gardens in and around Breaza. On Wednesday we were able to load them immediately, together with hospital beds, apples, some cake and other food. Another nice load that arrived in Breaza on Friday evening and was unloaded on Saturday morning. Wednesday was busy with repacking work and loading and collecting, it all ended up on its feet again. Here is the link to pictures of the loading. Here the link to pictures of the unloading in Breaza. Reghina from Ticau has been busy again making packages and handing them out. Here is the link to photos. Like every week, Henk Muller is busy offering help to his fellow man. Handing out goods, leading a youth club, building houses and surroundings. improve, you have to have a lot of energy to keep this up. H

Last week we shipped a trailer that will cover part of the route to Breaza by train. This concerns the stretch from Cologne to Arad, the trailer went on the train in Cologne and in Arad another tractor picks it up again for the last stretch to Breaza. We want to gain experience with this and thus avoid the crowds and controls at the Hungary/Romania border. On Wednesday, February 14, the loading of this trailer went well, there was quite a bit of repacking work and we were able to load a beautifully varied trailer with relief goods. The driver had to wait a little longer for his papers, Mission & Relief from Zevenhuizen produced additional documents. At 1:30 PM the driver headed to the terminal in Cologne. I don't know (yet) where the trailer is, we'll hear more about this early next week. Here is the link to photos. There were still some collection jobs, this was also the case on Monday just like last Friday. The warehouse is therefore still well filled. Next week we will l

On Wednesday we were able to load another truck with relief supplies. This time for Marghita and Ticau. We had quite a bit of stock so that we could put together a nice shipment again. We were extra careful with loading so that we would not have any problems at the border. This extra work has been useful, this truck crossed the border between Hungary and Romania without any problems on Friday. Besides loading the truck, there was plenty to do on Wednesday, for example we received a batch of lentils in large packaging. This can be done in small plastic pots that we have had in stock for some time. Also picking up stuff and cleaning up, another day well spent. Here is the link to photos. At the end of the afternoon on Friday, most of this cargo was unloaded in Marghita and potatoes and vegetables were loaded there for Ticau. There is a very good harvest on the farm, mainly due to Attila's craftsmanship and the efforts of his team. Sales are difficult due to the greatly reduced purcha
