On Feb. 24 we shipped Vine container #116. It pulled away from our dock at 3:PM on it's way to the Gulf. It arrived at our "bodega" in Guatemala the second week of March.

My thanks to all who support Vine International. You make this ministry possible.

Shipping News

Our October shipment (VC-106)of medical supplies has cleared customs in Guatemala and is on it's way to our 'bodega'. We still have a container of prenatal vitamins in port that is awaiting clearance.

Shipment

Our next shipping date is up in the air right now.  It may be this Thursday or it may be next week.
 
It's not my fault [this time].  There's a new customs agent at Puerto Barrios that doesn't seem to like us.  After dealing with a mountain of red tape, our last two containers took way too long to clear customs, which resulted in extra Container Demurrage fees.  We're going to try importing our next container through another port, which means canceling our Dole container & using another carrier.  Freight charges will be more, but the extra cost will be offset if we don't have to pay a lot of demurrage.
 
Please pray for a container of wheelchairs for Joni & Friends that arrived at Puerto Barrios last week, that customs will release it much faster than the last two & with far less red tape.
