Water Project working to make a difference

Postby paul » June 3rd, 2009, 3:28 am

My son Joel is currently in Ghana helping to complete a water project to bring fresh water to an entire village. This has been a large undertaking. But God has been faithful. The last photo is of the orphanage building we built. We have 127 orphans here in this vilage. The people of the viullage have suffered from disentary, worms, and other parasite for years. But no more. BTW: The trench had to dug for more than three miles. A lot of digging.

The scriptures tell us in 1Jn 3:17: But whoso hath this world's good, and seeth his brother have need, and shutteth up his bowels of compassion from him, how dwelleth the love of God in him?

You cannot effectively love and minister to others when you are obsessed with protecting
and preserving yourself.

Makes you want to run to your window and shout, "I'm grateful to Heaven, and I want to do this more!" :lol: :lol:

What a great work, thanks for the pic's
I can only guess how they feel about having fresh water and not have to carry it.
