CONTAINER TO AFRICA. Thanks to the energetic work of the chain gang yesterday, a 20 foot Container left the Faith in Action store bound for Africa. 600+ apple boxes full of clothes, bedding, shoes, candles and all sorts of other goodies are on their way to the villages in the southern part of Malawi.
