New Well in Mawanga, Uganda

Wonderful progress..a new well has been drilled and cased in the village. Just in time, the current boreholes are only putting out 10 jerry cans of water per day and have been contaminated with Typhoid. This well will serve a population of approximately 6,000! so, we need to drill another well.

The celebration has just begun. Soon, Kelsey Young, our Program Director, will be arriving in Uganda, and when she comes to the village there will be a great celebration and ceremony to celebrate. Thank YOU sooo much, all our donors, who have made this possible.

As Jesus gives us Living Waters to eternal salvation, so we freely give waters here on earth, as it is in heaven! Thank you, Jesus. You have heard the cry of those in Mawanga and have supplied their need.
