Great Week!
We made it back to the hotel late last night from our water well adventure. Everyone is doing great! We were able to complete two wells in a regional village in the Isosog area of South Bolivia. The people that live in this area speak an Indian language called Guarani. The first well we did was at a church. We loved digging this well for them because it will hopefully help them minister to the people in this area at an even greater level. The day we did this well we were able to participate in a great worship service at night where there were at least a couple hundred people who came to the outdoor service. There was lots of singing and celebration. They asked us to share a little bit so I intro´d our group and thanked them for letting us be a part of their community, Nathan shared a scripture and Gideon did an incredible job sharing his testimony. After that we showed the Jesus film. It was a great night. Day 2 and 3 consisted of drilling a well for the hospital in town. La Brecha was a village of probably 100 or more families but also served as a regional area to the hundreds of other families that lived throughout this region. The hospital only had water available to them when they had diesel(which was hard to come by) to pump their well. We were able to put a well in for them so that they have water now whenever they need it. What a privilege to be part of this project. God is good. Thanks for your prayers! Jason
