The real deal is this village knows how hard three different crews worked to bring them water, and we keep telling them we only continue to try because Jesus loves them and is showing them through our efforts on their behalf. So, this will be a 3 crew well with all the glory to God!

Drilling update
We've been drilling for the past 5 days in La Sabana where the earthquake 'took out' our previous well and a second attempt was not successful. It has been extremely difficult but today we reached 87-1/2 feet with an aquifer of 25' and a clay barrier of 35'. So, I think we will be able to ream the hole again and set casing and a pump. This has been one difficult well...the first day we couldn't get past 4', the second day we couldn't get past 10', and so it went with one problem after another. But, we kept praying and believing and returning to try again and God is about to reward this village with potable water.
