We've got WATER!

Yesterday at BOTH sites we ran the system and got water all the way through.  Bleached it/cleaned it and today we should be ready to dispense the first jugs to members of the community.  :)  :)

School children leaving to go home (water building in the background)

Darenda signing the covenant with Pastor Cornet and Pastor Junior- they agree to maintain the system, offer free water to families in the community, pay the operators (Bower Hill will pay salaries for the first year, then 1/2 the salary for the second year- cool set up.  They must also form a water committee from the community to oversee the running of the system, report any problems, etc.... 

Toasting (didn't drink it yet) to the water system WORKING.... this is the tank for the "dirty" water...

The class of people who have committed to learning about the system, learning about when to use clean water and to educate others!

The BOSS on the roof overseeing the work!  ;)

view through one of the holes in the church building!  :)  :)  

Looking over at the church!  Cool to have this angle from the top of the water building.

beginnings of a road into the property- it goes right up to the water building.  Still need to finish it (about $500 US) but it will be really nice!  

A bit hard to see but a RAINBOW appeared in the sky right after the water started to flow!  God is good!!
