We had a visit today from Cary J. Hahn, the Iowa Traveler of WMT-channel 2 fame, and he did video and interviews regarding our “Soles for Souls” project to collect shoes for our sister congregation in Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan, where Pastor Robert Pfeil, a former Our Redeemer pastor, is now missionary and pastor. We had sent six or our members and Pastor Zimmermann over there earlier this year. They came back and said, “send shoes!” We have collected over 2,000 pairs of a 3,000 goal, and Orphan Grain Train is coordinating the shipping.
The segment is scheduled to air on channel 2 (Cedar Rapids) on Wednesday evening’s 6:00 PM news, and Thursday’s Noon News. Tune in if you can!
