A message from the community
Dear Sponsors, We extend our thanks and appreciation to you for rehabilitating our hand pump which has been totally down for almost two years. We are very much grateful for such a great help towards us. We will always remember your kindness. Thank you very much. May God bless you. -- Patience Harris, Community Chairlady
Some community details (provided by our in-country partners)
King Gray Community is village of about 540 people in the E.L.W A. area of Paynesville City. A few years ago, Lifewater drilled a well and installed a hand pump there. But one year ago, the pump head was stolen. Lifewater's repair team visited recently and replaced the missing and broken parts. It was a great relief for this community, because during the time their pump was down, they had to buy water or go to other communities and wait for hours to get water, due to the number of people using the other well. After the repair of the well, the community block leader gave God the glory and thanked Lifewater for restoring their hope and reducing their suffering.
