Matthew 25:38-40

"When did we see You a stranger and take You in, or naked and clothe You? And the King will answer and say to them, 'Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did it to one of the least of these My brethren, you did it to Me'."

Almost at the last minute we discovered Ecuador has new restrictions with regards to bringing large amounts of clothing into the country. In order for our team to be able to bring all the shoes and socks we had collected, Mike traveled to Needham, Massachusetts to get approval to do so. Mrs. Beatriz G. Almeida Stein, the Consulate General for Ecuador in Boston, was extremely helpful in this process and we are extremely grateful for her assistance.

Al ultimo minuto descubrimos que Ecuador tiene restricciones nuevas contra la transportación de mucha ropa al país. Para asegurarnos que podríamos traer todos los zapatos y los calcetines que habíamos coleccionado, Mike viajó a Needham, Mass. para obtener aprobación. Senora Beatriz G. Almeida Stein, la Consulada General para Ecuador en Boston, nos ayudó muchisimo en esta proceso y por eso le damos gracias a ella.
