We will do that working in partnership with existing missions that are actually in the country in addition to sending shipments. So it will be on the two prong approach that we’ll respond.” Kitchel says this is an open door for sharing their faith. “By being there to help people in this hour of desperation we’re able to not only meet them at that physical level, but at the same time to be able to minister to them at the emotional and spiritual level.
