Ash Wednesday becomes Water Wednesday !

Wednesday 13 February 2013



Water Well construction doesn't always line up exactly with the church calendar so we were actually partying on the first day of Lent. I believe though we were theologically sound as we were celebrating the completion of the water well at the Bikeke Orphans Home and Liberty School.

Surrounded by over 150 children, over 30 adults from 5 countries (Saddleback Church’s mission team came by to rejoice with us also), 6 pastors and the Bishop of Shekinah Glory Community; we installed the pump, production string, plunger & rods and the well head. To a regale of joyful voices and alleluias, the pump was engaged and quickly produced a steady flow of fresh, clean, safe water.

Quite an event & not formally planned, by us, either … but great, and memorable. Well number two of three planned for this trip complete!
