Care Boxes sent to Russia and The Philippines

During the month of June CNI sent more than 3,000 Care boxes to St. Petersburg, Russia and Manila, Philippines. We partnered with Global Operations who provided containerers. In our care boxes, is 5 pounds of rice, 5 pounds of beans, 8 canned good items, powdered milk, cereal, pasta, and pasta sauce, nutritional bars, candy and a toy for children.

We also provide care boxes to senior citezen shelters throughout Southern California. We are currently working with 7 senior citizen centers. We provide them with food, personal hygeine items, over the counter medicines, and medical supplies. If you know of someone that needs our care boxes, please do not hesitate to call us.

It is our goal in the month of July to assemble 3,000 boxes. We are planning to send our care boxes to the following countries, St. Petersburg, Russia, Manila, Philippines; Moldova, Romania: Ghana, Africa; and Haiti. We recently were able to send our care boxes to Zimbabwe, Africa to help feed starving children. None of this would be possible without the help of friends like you that continually support us through prayer and financially. I would like to mention a special thank you to Dovetail Ministry, Mission Air Service, Operation Blessing, the Salvation Army, and the Union Rescue Mission. We appreciate their continued support of our programs. We know that it's very important to network together if we are going to make a real difference. We believe that it's not important who gets the credit as long as the food gets to those who need it and the word of God is preached to the unsaved around us.

prayer Requests and Answers

We give thanks to the Lord for continually answering our prayers and meeting so many needs. We are distributing out of a 35,000 square foot warehouse which can handle large volumes of donated product. We had an office built for us. (Supplies and labor were donated!) we have a new forklift and electric pallet jack. We recently recieved a grant to purchase pallet racks to utilize the air space. Our God is truly an awesome God! Thanks to all of you prayed with us for the much needed supplies. Since CNI started we distributed more than 10 million dollars worth of doanted products to the needy Children and their families.

Thanks to you, friends of CNI, we are able to reach out to more than 75,000 families on a monthly basis and provide them with food, personal hygeine items, clothing, over the counter mediciines. To God e the glory for the great things He has done. Please continue to pray that doors will be opened for new companies to donate their products, for new donors to help us expand our daily operations, and volunteers to help our goals become reality.
