Water Project Update

We received the e-mail below this morning from the Shyogwe Diocese:
"Greetings to you in Jesus name. Thank for all your support and prayer. I send to you report of Gikomero water project.


GIKOMERO WATER PROJECT:  PROGRESS ACTIVITIES REPORT.


Realized activities:

·         Source catchment

·         Collect chamber

·         20 m3 tank

·         Shelter for pump ,

·         1950m of Main pipe line (from pump to main tank) is finished  it means excavation of trenches, laying pipe line and fill back trenches.

Planned activities:

·         To buy motopump & fittings and his installation and pump will cost 12,500,000 RWF (over $20,000)

·         To connect all installations

·         Construction of main tank (50m3),here we decide that we may start using plastic tank while waiting to get money to build an other one."

The $46,000 we sent was spent on the "Realized Activities".  
We are praying that the additional $30,000 needed to bring this project to completion will be raised.  

Please join us in praying.  

The Water Project would bring water to the people of Gikomero and also the newly constructed health clinic which would then become a Health Center and receive government funding, have a doctor on site, and allow for babies to be delivered.
