Planting Trees

We went to the Salgaa Water Project today, March 20, and planted fruit trees. We prayed over the first one as Shadrack showed us the proper way to plant in Kenya. We planted Orange trees, Mangos, Passion, Apples, strawberries. Shadrack is also planning to plant watermelons, tomatoes, and bananas. We are so blessed to have been a part of this very important step in making the baby center self-sufficient. Thank you to all of you who have been so faithfull in supporting the baby center, the water project, and the land at Salgaa.

What an amazing day! This morning we planted trees at the water project land. Then Helen Koech, the wonderful lady that we purchased the land from, had the team, Margie and Billy Fuller over for lunch. After taking the team back to the baby center, I took Sammy, Mwangi, and Shadrack out to the water project. We prayed together over the well and went over the business plan. It was a very moving time joining with the Kenyan men and getting them going on bringing water to the baby center. Thank you to Jamie and Bernie for their work on bringing this project to fruition.
The truck is at the weldng shop having it's tank installed today. We will be moving water next week!!!!
Thank you to the donors of the water project, God has blessed us with water, and the Kenyans to get the job done here! Our God is an awesome God!!

Thank you to all that donated to the water project, God has blessed your faithfulness.
