We visited 4 churches today in search of likely partners to work with for a clean water project. Only one was a really good candiate. The small, impoverished community represented by this young girl at the well has access to water through this one well that works on this hand pump. We performed tests on the water that this young lady pumped up for us by hand. Unfortunately, as we spoke with Pastor Cristobal Flores we discovered that the capacity in this well is so small that adding an electric pump would almost certainly deplete the water supply in about five minutes. We will almost certainly not be able to help this community.
Having technical difficulty uploading the number of photos we took today. Will work on the problem from this end and try to get a slide show mounted soon. Tomorrow we are scheduled to visit another 3 churches.
