Here is a short update from Phil Eckart…

Dear friends,

I am sorry for the lack of communication lately. It has been a very hard winter for my business. Now things are picking up and I have had to run hard to catch up. This week I will be going to western Illinois and Mich. After that things should slow down somewhat. God has opened the hearts of some of you in generous giving for our shipment to Liberia. We are now only about $1000 short. This money is for saw blades and spare parts for the Woodmizer. There is enough money in the account to move the container to Monrovia. I called Kendell Koffman ( the Canadian guy at Smaritians  Purse) to see if he had any tips on shipping. He gave me a couple of suggestions. I will be sending out a short letter to our newsletter list concerning the final needs of the shipment. We need to have a board meeting. I have set May the 15th, Sunday at 3pm at our house aside for it. If any of you can’t come let me know. We have a short video Chris has made for us. He is working on a longer one also. I can’t wait to show all of you the things we have to ship! Thank God for all of you and keep praying for this ministry.
