GABON: BONGOLO HOSPITAL
Over the past three decades, the ministry of sending supplies to our hospital has been a blessing to thousands of our patients. It is a tangible way for individuals in our churches to get involved and make a difference in the world. Thank you so much! As many of you know, the U.S. Postal Service no longer sends packages boat mail. We have been researching to find a way to get packages sent at a reasonable cost to you. The following are a couple of ways to send packages: The U.S. Postal System has what is called International Priority flat rate boxes and can be obtained at your local office. The rate on these boxes is $37, and you can send up to 20 lbs. for that amount. There are two sizes available: 13.75 x 11.75 x 3.5, and 11 x 9 x 5.75 inches. Since the boxes aren’t very large, they would be good for heavier items like multivitamins or antacids. A larger flat rate box will be available in March. Please put only three (3) different types of items in each box; for example, toothbrushes, cotton balls, and multivitamins. For now, we ask you to send the packages to the mission address in the capital city of Libreville. The address is: Bongolo Hospital, B.P. 13.021, Libreville, Gabon. Please send $10 per box to the C&MA National Office to the following account: Bongolo Medical Supplies/Shipping/Customs. This will pay to get it down country to Bongolo. (C&MA, PO Box 35000, Colorado Springs, CO. 80935-3500) Every year the hospital ships one or two containers from the United States to Bongolo Hospital. Often, there is space available in these containers for a limited number of packages. Coleen Lofgren has agreed to coordinate and keep track of boxes, their size and available space in the containers. If you have packages that you wish to send this way, please e-mail Coleen at a list for each package—the dimensions, weight and contents—and include the cost of the items. She will then let you know where to send the packages. Since sending a container is expensive, and the packages need to be trucked down to Bongolo from Libreville, we would ask you to send $20 for each package to the C&MA National Office to the same account as above. Light items like cotton balls could be sent in a large mailing envelope to the Libreville address. Another possibility to help us would be to send funds to our account at the C&MA National Office for medical supplies, shipping and customs. You will notice that the list has been shortened. Some items, like OR linens, are sufficient at this time. If you have items that you think may be of use, please contact Coleen at the above e-mail or call her at 218-245-2706. Her mailing address is: 41366 Scenic Highway, Bovey, MN. 55709. Please check out the . BONGOLO NEEDS LIST
