Greg and I are still here, Tony and Terri are on their way back to the States.  It has been proven to us many times that God is more ambitious and with a better plan than we can ever be.  It is humbling to me to realize I have set my goals too low…that almost never happens.  It is commonly said that God is in control but this trip we have seen a perfect plan unfold before our eyes that we had nothing to do with planning.  It’s like God is saying to us….quit worrying about the details and plan B and C, I’ve got a plan in mind…just go and enjoy the kids.  Our projects and kid time are going great and even the vehicle trouble we have been having has worked out to our benefit.  God is good!

Tomorrow we will have the pump installed in the completed well, we will have pumped water into our completed elevated tank and pipes, we will have pressurized well water in our kitchen, bath house and toilets, and to the community distribution spot at our gate.  We have a meeting scheduled for tomorrow to discuss clean healthy water distribution to the community, beginning within 2 weeks when the water quality test results are in.  This is all in a week and a half and under budget.

Thank you for your prayers!

Here are a few photos….

Someone had to go in to secure the pipe couplings….

Hooking up to the piping.

How many guys does it take to thread a pipe?

OK OK…you can have anything just turn off the cute powers.
