A message from the community
Dear Sponsor
It was a blessing to have your team come to our community. This is another well that had been down for a long time and we can't express enough how good it is to have it working again.
Please accept our thanks!
Some community details (provided by our in-country partners)
There was social conflict in this community so when we asked villagers to identify the pumps that needed to be repaired, they did not tell us about some that needed to be fixed. Therefore, people living there who needed safe water continued to suffer.
But now there has been ongoing reconciliation, and we were told about the additional wells that required repairs to their pumps. Thankfully, our repair team found that major rehabilitation was not needed. We got this pump and some others pumps fixed and the people were very excited to see water flowing again. Our repair team told us: "It was a great blessing to be part of this peacemaking/reconciliation mission for blessed are the peacemakers! More so, the love of Christ was demonstrated."
Pump down for over 24 months
Repair under way
