Thankful for Water

We never stop and think about “a cup of cold water,” because the Lord has blessed us so much that we can just “turn a handle” and out comes water!!! Haiti, the poorest country in the Western Hemisphere, does not have enough clean water. The mountain people, especially, walk miles or send their children walking for miles looking for water, many barefoot.

As we travel through the rocky riverbed, not far from our Love A Child Children’s Home, we see women and children sitting in the middle of the large, dry riverbed that winds through the mountains. Women and children spend long hours with a tin cup, trying to scrape up a half cup of water. They need to find enough to drink and enough to wash clothes with.

I have seen children come to our Mobile Medical Clinics with their heads crusted in filth and infection simply because there is no clean water. Yesterday, was a great miracle! That water well pumps 1,200 gallons a minute! The water travels to all the farmers’ crops in the area!! To God be the glory. We wish to thank Academy Cathedral, Pastor Elaine, for sponsoring this well and the submergible pump in Fond Parisien to be fixed and installed!! What a blessing!!! Sherry
