Lately its been all about water and improving the heath of our children. This past week we began our water harvesting and it is now finished!!! I am so thankful that my brother was able to financially support this big project.
The kids will no longer have to make the long and dangerous walk for water. From the school it is all downhill to where they get water, that means all the way up hill several times a day carrying the heavy water. I have done it with them several times and it is hard. Now they will be able to catch all the rain that comes and when the water in the area turns on they will be able to fill up their tank!! The kids are so so happy!!
Vickie went to church with the kids yesterday and this is what she told me..
One of our boys, Alex, went up to share his testimony. He was expressing his gratitude for the new tank! Thanking God that he doesn't have to walk for water again. He said he had been praying a lot about it and just continued expressing his thankfulness.
How wonderful is that?! God is so good, all the time.

Hello rain gutters.
THEY LOVE IT
Ivan might love it more..
Imagine how much water is needed to bathe 35 kids twice a day. Cooking and drinking water for 54 kids everyday. Washing clothes for 35 kids and all their little teeth brushing. It is a lot. NO MORE WALKING FOR IT. Our precious deaf kids can't hear the boda's or cars and last term two of our kids got hit. Praise and thanks be to God that this will no longer happen!
AND THE HAND WASHING SHALL BEGIN
This is the filter on top for water that comes from the rain gutters.
THANK YOU ALL.
This is absolutely wonderful and uplifting! Thanks for all you and God are doing, Rannah! Facing the challenges they do already, and to be deaf as well......Makes us rethink our values and be thankful for our blessings!! (I like the way bright colors change the atmosphere drastically as well. )
