New Well

We are concluding a new well which will be inaugurated on February 25th. It is a deep bore well of 50 metres in depth that was drilled at a Brazilian Indian community called Jatobá in the County of Carnaubeira da Penha in the State of Pernambuco. The people are overjoyed as it is a location of extremely difficult access. Three companies turned down the contract to drill the well, but the fourth agreed to try and it worked out well. PTL!

The official inauguration and thanksgiving service on the 25th will be the result of months of work at the community. Having been shortlisted as a place that a well was badly needed we started visiting the community and analyzing the place. Once it was given the all clear a series of community meetings were held with our projects team leading. Such meetings make all the rules clear regarding the project and get the community's agreement to everything which is then drawn up into a formal registered document.

Please pray for the thanksgiving service and inauguration on February 25th. Please pray for all the community as it hears the Gospel on that day. Please also pray that the on-going blessing of the well will open people's hearts to the truth of Jesus' love.

We are extra busy this week preparing for the Carnival Camp, getting all the food shopping done and transporting it to Green Pastures. Liz is especially busy with all this. Please pray for the Camp which will start on February 18th.
