Behind The Scenes Tuesday, August 09, 2005

You may have read on the Internet or in the CTV Newsletters, about the many shipments that are sent overseas to the Voice Of God Recordings offices and distribution centers around the world. One thing that you may not know is that each VGR representative must use a broker to get shipments into their country.

In the country of Venezuela, the shipments arrive in the port city of Guanta, and Brother Hector Vega has been on the receiving end of those shipments for 17 years. He is a broker by trade, but has also been a believer in this message for over 30 years and works to see the VGR shipments make it safely through customs each time.

Brother Vega and his family have worked in the brokerage business for many years, and his experience in working with the customs has certainly been a blessing.

Once a shipment is received at the port, Brother Vega will notify our distributor in Barquisimeto, Brother Cesar Peraza, and then transports the material to his house, where it will be stored. Brother Cesar arrives shortly thereafter, to start the distribution process in the eastern states of Venezuela with the help of Brother Vega. Once that portion is completed, he will then accompany the rest of the shipment to the office and continue on with the distribution process.

Brother Vega has been a gallant brother helping to ensure that the Message of the hour reaches each believer in his home country. He is also the associate pastor of his church and a special friend to all the believers in Venezuela.
