A message from the community
Dear Lifewater & Sponsor, I have lived in this community for 30 years, I am married and have 5 children and I work as a tailor for my living. Most of the people get what they need at the local market. I am the well caretaker and when the well became broken, we suffered a lot to find good water, we even dug a hole to find water to drink, I called Lifewater for help. Now we can say God and Lifewater has saved us. We say praise the Lord for this deliverance. Thank you for your help. May God cover you under his wings! Emmanuel Maxime, Well Caretaker
