As the dry season gets even hotter in these last few months before the rain comes it is a challenge for most people to find water to drink. Not only water but clean water..it is really sad to see so many people here drinking dirty water.
Well out in the village it is not usually a problem but our bore hole has been broken ever since i got back and so the uncles and a "well man" decided to try fix it...well what a performance , everyone was trying to fix it, including so many of our children it was real entertainment and its still not fixed....
we take it all to pieces....and are left with a pipe sticking out of the ground...
the boys try and pull the pieces of pipe apart...
two try...and then many more join the tug of war...
three uncles pulling and pushing, trying to re- join pipes
how to make the pipes pliable in a village
so in the end after hours of work they put it bck together and it still doesnt work!!!! so we are having yet another "expert" coming to try again...please pray with us that they are successful and our boys get clean water again soon....

wow, what a cool story. I hope they succeed and i will pray for that. I believe they will soon fix that problem. Maybe they can dig deeper to see if there's a leak or something. Might have to dig the well deeper. I don't think the pipes on top of the soil is the problem. probably a problem underground.
