Weekly update 45/25 Engels

This past week was a kind of calm before the storm. On Wednesday, November 12th, a trailer was loaded for Marghita. This helped free up the warehouse for the Christmas hamper campaign next Thursday and Friday. Fortunately, this trailer arrived on time and was full by noon.

Here's a link to a photo album.

We were able to immediately unload the truck that arrived from Marghita on Wednesday, November 12th, with the Penny Market goods for the Christmas packages.

Here's a link to a photo album.

There were two empty trailers available that we can use for a few weeks to temporarily store our existing inventory.

On Tuesday, November 11th, the box hall in Barneveld delivered 5,700 empty boxes.
They love eye-catching trucks and trailers there.






On Thursday, November 14th, we were able to pick up our order at Lidl. All the products are ready to be made into the Christmas hampers.

Here's the link to a photo album.

Next Monday, we'll put everything in its proper place and install the conveyor belt, etc. So we'll be ready in time to welcome a large group of volunteers on Thursday, November 20th, and Friday, November 21st, and let them roll up their sleeves. A youth group from the Reformed Church will kick things off on Tuesday evening.

Three trailers arrived in Breaza last week. Two on Monday, November 10th, and the last on Tuesday, November 11th. Due to circumstances, they were too close together, but they made it happen. The people we supply from this depot remain enthusiastic and grateful that we make this possible.

Here's the link to a photo album.

You can read more about the activities from Breaza on the Imola blog:

Viorel from Deaj sent me a request to help several families improve their housing. Thanks to our sponsors, we can cover the cost of the materials. He does the work with the people around him. Unfortunately, many people live in similar circumstances.

Here's the link to a photo album.

Here are the photos and explanations of Viorel and Elena's "normal" activities. It's certainly no news that prosperity isn't fairly distributed across the world's population. The photos and stories of Viorel, among others, illustrate this once again.

Here's the link to a photo album.

Henk Muller is still in Pakistan and shared photos with an explanation. Martonel has taken over the distribution in Romania.

Here's the link to a photo album.

Marin and Eniko cooked for the children and made packages from the goods thatarrived there from Broek op Langedijk.

Here's the link to a photo album.







Joszi from Tirgu Mures shared a series of photos of the work he does for the children and elderly in his neighborhood.

Here's the link to a photo album.


The food packages don't reach people who already live in abundance. We regularly receive messages of gratitude from the emergency responders on the ground, confirming that our work is still important.


A truck will arrive Thursday and Friday to deliver the first shipment of Christmas packages. The rest will follow a week later.

M-am întors la muncă săptămâna trecută. De exemplu, a trebuit să recuperez apelurile telefonice, aplicațiile și e-mailurile. Am scris despre remorca încărcată pentru Jorg Breddermann data trecută. În plus, Jorg a trimis mai multe fotografii de la descărcare și distribuție, inclusiv în Odessa. Acesta a fost un ajutor foarte binevenit pentru oamenii care trăiesc în circumstanțe dificile acolo. Iată un link către câteva fotografii. Lunea trecută, 22 septembrie, remorca încărcată în Broek op Langedijk pe 17 septembrie a fost descărcată în Breaza. Clienții s-au așezat imediat la coadă; rețeaua de acolo funcționează bine. Ajungem cu ea la cei mai săraci și vulnerabili oameni. Iată un link către un album foto. Imola s-a concentrat mai mult pe îngrijirea persoanelor în vârstă, inclusiv pe aspectele sociale. La fel ca în Olanda, singurătatea este o amenințare reală pentru vârstnicii din România. De câteva ori pe săptămână, se desfășoară activități într-o anexă de pe proprietatea lor, care este ...

A short update on our blog this time, let's call it a summer edition. On Wednesday, July 9th, we were able to start loading a trailer right on time, going to two addresses: Margitha and Breaza. It turned out to be a nice, varied load, and our storage was starting to empty. However, this didn't last long; new stock arrived from three different locations. So we can continue sending relief shipments for a while longer. Here's the link to a photo album. On Friday, July 11th, the trailer we had loaded in Broek op Langedijk on July 2nd was unloaded in Breaza. Here's the link to photos of previous shipments. Csaba shared some new photos in an album about the bread program. Besides Viorel, several people are receiving flour made from wheat harvested on the farm in Margitha. In Breaza and Deda, local bakers are making bread from it, which is then distributed to people in need. It's a wonderful system that works well and is very useful. Here's the link to this photo album...

Lucrurile au mers puțin diferit față de planul de săptămâna trecută. Remorca pe care trebuia să o încărcăm miercuri nu a ajuns. Înainte de a merge la Broek op Langedijk pentru încărcare, a trebuit mai întâi să fie descărcată la Ikea din Amersfoort. Acolo au descoperit că exista o gaură în acoperiș, care a provocat daune provocate de apă încărcăturii. Manipularea a durat atât de mult încât încărcarea în Broek op Langedijk nu a mai fost posibilă. Acum a fost amânată pentru lunea viitoare, când vom încărca lotul deja gata cu o echipă mică. Marți, 27 mai, eu și Siem am putut ridica un alt lot din mijlocul țării, în principal dulciuri. Bun de folosit în taberele pentru copii. O treabă destul de bună, dar a fost plăcut că am putut conduce un DAF nou pentru o vreme. Miercuri, 28 mai, au fost lucrări de ridicare și curățenie, dar din păcate nu s-a încărcat camionul. Mitskevych Ruslan, care a venit să încarce pentru Pastorul Vasly miercuri, 21 mai, era deja gol în Chemerivtse marți, 27 mai. Pri...
