A message from the community

Dear Lifewater & Sponsor,

Praise the Almighty God! May the name of the Lord God be praised. Honour and Glory be to Him.

On behalf of AIC (Church) Maombi, I take this opportunity to thank you for drilling a well for our church, which is 130 feet deep.  Thank you for installing the pump and providing the skilled labourers to do the work.  This well will serve the church and the surrounding communities who have had water shortages for a long time.

We really appreciate what you have done. May God bless you to continue assisting the needy.

Yours Faithfully,

John Kariuki Njoroge, Chairman

 

Some community details (provided by our in-country partners)

AIC Maombi is located in the Kabazi area in Nakuru County. This Church and surrounding communities had only a seasonal River and a hand dug well to get water from, both locations very unsafe to use. The people are very happy that they now have  safe water for their families to use.
